You keep replying with this shit to every comment. How do you expect a toddler in a child seat to use that lever? Mind you I do not close car doors with my kids inside due to my own paranoia of losing the keys or something, but it's a horrible design flaw that you can't open the car from outside when the 12v battery is dead.

If the toddler is locked into their seat they likely aren't opening any door regardless. This Is Us ignoring the fact that most rear doors have a child lock button that is usually activated at least most parents I've seen with toddlers generally activate that button.

There are so many legitimate things to complain about here I'm just annoyed by people basically saying wow how does it not have a manual release, or why is it hidden. When it's not.

The real problem here is the lack of any external manual release. Obviously it would still need to somehow be locked with a key that is not electronic, but there should still be some type of manual release even if it's on the bottom trim of the door for the sake of your Aesthetics or whatever. The complete and utter lack of any external manual release is the problem here but nobody is talking about that and is instead just making shit up about how there is no manual release for the inside, or it's hidden, or difficult to use, I'm just tired of people making shit up.
