Why are door handles tricky?

Tesla's door handles are designed to sit flush with the car's body for better aerodynamics and a sleek look. However, this design makes them harder to find and operate quickly, especially in an emergency or if the car's electrical system fails. The recall aims to address this safety concern with software updates and warning labels.
