I have a Tesla Model Y and I was thinking of downsizing to an ID.4 and you just scared the shit out of me.

The ID 4 is coming off a recall and sales stop because the doors would open when in motion if the handles got wet.

I can't recall any car that didn't have any 'teething problems'. Some cars I've owned had multiple recalls. Of course it doesn't look good, but often it's to fix the probability of a problem occurring: it's not that the doors instantly swing open when touched by a drop of water.
