Non-functional outside handles are just as bad as non-functional inside ones. Not always is the person on the inside able to open the door on their own.

Inside or outside? Ik they have issue with inside door handles and safety but I don’t see a need to redesign outside handles?

So those would be the model S and X electric handles and not the 3 and Y mechanical ones? Yeah, that seems like a safety issue.

The read interior handles on the 3 and Y absolutely need to be redesigned tho

As long as the model 3/y were mechanically operated, I’m not sure their push to pull mechanism is bad, but the model s/x have electronically presenting handles that need power to present themselves, which you can’t really just make mechanical like you can the model 3/y ones.
