I have been locked out of my car before. I would be very pleased with the service where remote unlocking is as easy as calling a phone number and convincing the operator that you're the owner. Of course, that comes with one important condition: Tesla would have to be the one who absorbed the risk that the authentication was false and the car gets stolen.

Couldn't they just claim that "someone stole your identity" because that seems to works for banks and similar institutions?

Except that this clearly doesn’t work for banks, as they foot the bill when such things happen.

A lot of times they kick that financial responsibility down to the merchant.
