I know someone with an ID4, it's a decent car but gives me Toyota Prius vibes. Nothing wrong with that though, my wife loved her 2004 Prius but wasn't something I particularly liked driving.

I thought this was only on cars with aftermarket soft close or auto frunk kits. Had not heard of failures on non modified cars.
EDIT, After a search, I fail to find a frunk failure on a stock vehicle.

Give me a break! If Tesla had an issue with this it would have been corrected a decade ago. This forum is where people come to complain about issues and nobody here seems to have any.
I've had plenty of issues with my Teslas and I think they are excellent cars, but I don't drink the Tesla koolaide. If you think Tesla has your back you might want to look up the S/X platform issues. Failing aft links, poorly designed front end geometry resulting in constant half shaft replacements, uncorrectable rear toe....to name a few.

No, we won't ask a mechanic or search you tube. You are literally the only person talking about this. Site your sources.

I would almost prefer the manual charge port to some of the slow, jerky opening ones from the legacy automakers. The Tesla charge port rocks!
At the end of the day the E-Tron is a tarted up iD4, for better or worse.
I spoke with the Tesla tech who came to my shop. It happens, maybe not to everybody, but he and his other coworkers have spent time under a car trying to release stuck frunks. You can believe whatever you want, it doesn't matter to me.
I'd be grateful if you would post one of the YT links. I've searched but failed to find one. Must be using the wrong search criteria. MTIA

The tech was replacing my failed factory latch on my other Tesla and we were having a conversation about the frequency of latch failures where he told me his first hand experiences with fixing other failed latches, like my own. Not sure where speculation is involved.
My Q3 Vorsprung hatch (2020 model) had all sorts of issues from new. It was anyone's guess if it was going to open. Except when i was washing the car. When spraying the rear with a hosepipe (not even a powerwash) the boot would suddenly spring open
. They did fix it eventually under warranty. Something to do with the folding tow bar if I recall.Hell. I had an SQ5 and that used to open at automated car washes because the kick-to-open was sensitive. There was a software update that lowered the sensitivity but then, it because harder to open using that feature.
