Description of the problem	When i purchased this 2016 toyota highlander le in mid december, i did not realize until i got it home, there was no interior rear door release. No release button on the dash and no interior door handle. I went back to the dealership, found my salesman and asked him if there was an interior door release. He told me there was not and "that's why they offer the le plus model which has a power rear door with inside release". Every vehicle i've owned since 1998 has had an inside trunk or rear door release. It seems like a huge safety issue to me, how would anybody escape from the back in case of fire or other tragedy? Aren't passenger vehicles required to be manufactured with an inside release/door handle?
