    Is this because the door handle is some complicated electronic mechanism rather than a latch? Gee who could have possibly predicted that would be a problem.

    My neighbour has a Tesla and last year I had great fun watching her trying to defrost her car enough to get the door handle to even come out.

      I have had to put quite a bit of force into a car door to get it to open on many an occasion. (Ice is a bitch) A normal door handle just works, stop trying to fix it!

        Yeah, but in those cases you actually can get a grip to pull on.

        Unlike those hidden handles.

        I hate the little flip up style handle on my car, known for its winter capability, which regularly freezes enough that you’re afraid it’ll break if you pull any harder
