Grandmother Trapped in Hot Tesla | Seattle News

An elderly woman was trapped in a sweltering Tesla for over an hour on a scorching Tuesday night, temperatures inside soaring past 100 degrees — a heartbreaking case where a “pet-safe-mode” glitch left her stranded and in distress. Deputies rescued her after locating her granddaughter, who claimed the system was supposed to keep AC running, but it failed. The grandmother is recovering, and Kitsap County Adult Protective Services is now investigating — a sobering reminder that even advanced tech can fail when it matters most, and vulnerable people need our vigilance.
