    If I recall correctly, the manual override for the electric inner door handle is hidden under some panel. Major lawsuit material if you ask me, and irresponsible by the certifying authorities,

      FWIW, pretty much every car on the road actually has a switch which completely disables the inside rear door latch.

      You recall wrongly. It’s totally exposed, available all the time. Lots of people who are new actually activate it instead of the button that lowers the window before opening.

          Unless it’s a coupe, then you don’t have rear doors at all…
