False. Did you watch the video? It proves that you only had to double tap and exit.

Tesla pushed an update that enabled this as a "convenient" shortcut to the more elaborate, safer method you describe. In fact the video author praises it. Seems like a nice handy feature.. At first. Safety-critical design needs more care than this though.

It is True. You have to press in two places on the key. First you have to press and Hold in the middle of the key. Next you have to press either in the Front of the key or the Back of the key. Show me the video? Am I missing something can I simply press in the Front Twice?
