Able to open door at red light even when showing locked?

[ldelatorre]

There is a serious security issue on my model Y (and perhaps others). I had my wife get in the car and put it in drive and wait as in a stop light. I approached the driver's door without a cell phone and I was able to open her door from even though it was showing the lock sign on the screen. That means that anybody can approach you at a red light and open your door... How long has this been going on???

Interesting and will be testing this ourselves soon.

Followup: Tested this feature with me sitting in our '22 June MYP in drive mode and locked with my wife walking around attempting to open each door including the rear hatch and they did not open .

Interesting. What software version do you have? We are on 2022.44.30.5

Had she moved after putting it in drive?

IMO, the only way to be able to open the door when in drive is to have your foot pressing the brake pedal.

Yes, had her move a few feet and hold. Then I tried the door.

But that's a problem if you have your foot on the brake on a stop light you can get jacked.

Don’t put foot on brake pedal. Problem solved

What if you are not in hold mode, but in creep or free roll or whatever they are called? Then you have to have a foot on the brake.

Switch to "Hold" mode
