    Is there a way to capture the footage from the door pillars? It's exceptionally useful having the four (front/back/rear-facing sides) but that does leave a footage hole.

    Would be nice, but I don't think there is currently any way to capture any video from those.

    If your Tesla vehicle is involved in an accident and you did not save the Dash Cam video by tapping the screen icon or honking the horn you can submit a request to Tesla within 72 hours of the event and Tesla can, in some cases, retrieve the video from their servers. The Tesla recording includes the video from the door pillars.
