Possible to disable the Android Tesla App notification widget interaction?

[SylvainG]

Is there a way to disable the notification widget? That stupid thing opened my trunk while my locked phone was in my inner jacket pocket while shoveling snow. Guess what happened to the snow on the trunk!

I don't know why the locked Android is allowing notifications to expand (maybe that depends on OS version and vendor customization), but you can change OS settings:

Settings / Apps / Tesla / Notifications / Phone Key Status

Then set "Lock Screen" to "Don't show notifications at all", or switch "Minimize" on.
