People shit on Telsa because you need to smash out your window if your “key was in a weird state”.

This is a good opportunity to remind people to always take your key or roll the window down anytime you’re exiting your car and you don’t want it to lock you out. While working on it, getting gas, charging, etc. I worked on cars for 15 years and this was always the first step - roll down the window. Most of the time…

This is the real reason why they left the door on the Dragon capsule open when they did the space walk.

Clearly you have never seen the pockets on women’s pants. Pockets which in many cases, do not exist. So pocket knives not really an option for everyone.

Yea but then you’d have to have it on you. Im guessing this woman left her bag in the car which had her key. Not sure where her phone is and why it wasn’t working as the key though. Maybe her phone was in her purse and the car lost connection with it, thinking she had left the car, hence locking the doors.
Frankly, I…

If Sentry was not on, it would not automatically save the clip. It would just be in the normal one hour video loop that automatically gets deleted after the time expires.

Knowing (and having your family know) if the windows is tempered glass or laminate is probably a good thing to add here. Laminate is becoming more and more common to reduce wind noise - I’m not going to look up what Tesla uses but particularly on EVs where wind and road noise are more prenounced once you remove engine…

Jesus only an hour?? So if someone keys your car or something but you don’t come back to your car in under an hour you have zero video??

Good on her for valuing the life of her child over her car window.

If it were a CT she could have just ripped the window down like cheap wallpaper.

There was until the OTA wipe request got sent from Austin.

with little in the way of answers offered by the automaker so far.

What’s more, Pineda has since discovered that the footage captured by her car in Sentry Mode has reportedly been wiped from the car’s memory, meaning that no footage of her and Ortega attempting to open the car to rescue the child remains.

This needs to be a full NHTSA investigation. I am 99.9 percent certain that his wasn’t the only truck so afflicted, which means other people are driving trucks with a similar defect.

We in the rust belt have been transporting our families in vehicles whose frames are paper thin swiss cheese for generations.*

I had a landlord tell me to keep using a leaking dishwasher... I told her that I would be at her apartment (onsite management) bright and early to borrow her dishwasher... had a new dishwasher by noon the same day.

aircraft tire SME here, and came to post this. In my field we refer to the release plugs you mention as “fuse plugs”. Blowing the fuse plugs is usally a delayed effect thing, as you need time for the heat to go from the brakes to the wheel where the use plugs are. Most aircraft I work with have fuse plugs that melt in…

Agree. The photo shows deflated, not “burst” tires in the catastrophic sense.

I am assuming this is a robot welded part of the truck which means however many were made before it was caught almost certainly ALL have missing frame welds.

It seems dirty that they even mention Boeing in the headline.
