Bumblebee is being chased by bad guys but it's not stalking in the traditional sense.

After Bumblebee is captured, Charlie’s protests that he isn’t a threat are dismissed, and Burns tells Charlie’s parents she is confused and doesn’t understand what happened.

Bee is dangled over the edge of a cliff but survives the fall pretty much non-visibly injured. In a later scene a guy jumps off a high cliff into water, the camera above him while diving. Charlie then is expected to dive after him but looks down at the height and gets scared, people assume she’s afraid of heights but she has trauma about losing her father to an unrelated injury, the last time she saw him was when she was high diving. Charlie later dangles from a cell tower/crane.

Bee could be seen as disabled as he is nonspeaking due to injury, before this injury he is voiced by an obviously verbal person. John cena also plays a character with a facial injury

Not that I’ve seen in the actual movie but fair warning The Smiths is played, Morrissey is known for being a racist and their music being used in the official soundtrack means he probably made royalties. There is also some themes themes of in-world specism towards autobots from humans. The villains also describe humans as a “savage Indigenous life form” which the word “savage” ties heavy racist connotations towards Indigenous peoples
