Tesla model 3 rear vs front doors

[Umesh.Goswami]

Hi,
I got delivery of model 3 yesterday and have a question pls! Do rear doors open differently in model 3 compared to Front doors ( from inside)? I noticed my front doors unlatch just by pressing ‘open’ button while rear doors need a push too? Not sure if its normal or is a defect. Any guidance/ feedback is appreciated.

my rear doors need a good slam to close them, when opening them you need to give them a push

I had a similar issue, though it was one of my rear doors required I hold the button down while pushing, while all the rest I could press-and-release then open it. I took it to the SC and they adjusted the latch positioning and that seemed to fix it.

In my 2021, all the doors pop out a bit when pressing the button. However, I'm not sure if this may have changed with later versions.

With the back doors its a case of press and hold the button and then push the door. Apparently a safety thing.

Yeah my kids struggle with those doors. Now they slam them like Hogan slamming Andre at wrestlemania.

Love the Wrestlemania reference. I watched that one (Wrestlemania III) with a bunch of friends at my birthday party. My wife made a cake that looked like a wrestling ring. Thanks for the great memory.
