Opening Tesla Model 3 Trunk In Rain Is Not Advised
An over-the-air update will not solve this one.

Not everything in the Tesla Model 3 makes users happy. Particularly, the trunk can surprise the owner in the rain if he/she decides to open it.

As Bjørn Nyland shows in his latest video – "trunk design flaw" – the water gets inside the trunk, as there is no other way for it to move off the lid without entering the vehicle.

If Tesla does not find a solution to this, then the Model 3 will be cumbersome in rainy markets.
