Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop
-
Peugeot and Citroën have their own issues in Europe (and technically in America) with the recall of car due to defective airbags.

And actual privacy protection.

And the best part is you probably have local anarchists who want to help you learn to maintain it

My 2018 Chev Trax may be the perfect level of tech for my tastes. Climate stuff is all physical, but it had a nice screen that you can hook a phone to through a USB or Bluetooth to pass maps/audio/calls through it with the audio and calls being controllable by buttons on the wheel.
The only actual car operation buttons on the screen are things you wouldn't do when driving anyhow like decide if it locks automatically or setting the default volume.
Most obnoxious thing it does is keep reminding me that the sat radio subscription is expired when I start it.

Jeep isn't a true company anymore it's just another brand under Stellantis. So FUCK stellantis and every other brand under them.

Best of fucking luck, hon. You're on the Fury Road now. What you need is a U-turn.

Because I've seen what people do with their vehicles. I bought my car new 13 years ago and I've been able to make sure it's been properly maintained the entire time and no one else's crud is all over the interior. I intend to keep it until it falls apart. Prior to that I had a truck I bought used and got maybe 5 years out of it before the transmission died with only medium mileage. I had maintained it but who knows what the person before me did with it.
That said if nothing changes with all this touchscreen infotainment shit I don't know what I'll do. I've hated every new vehicle I've been in the last few years.

That depends on the business culture and how good their advisors are. And also the size if the business matter.
But yeah generally angelosaxton companies who have a mangement structure that’s way more in depth than it needs to be fuck these things over

Welcome to lemmy comments. Someone else incorrectly mentioned the Streisand effect so this guy decided to be cheeky and post just the photo.

My 2023 Mazda has a touch screen but you never actually have to touch it. In fact, they put it far enough away that it is difficult to touch while driving and disable the touch when the car is moving. There are knobs and buttons in-between the front seats that control it. Also none of the important stuff is controlled through the infotainment system, it is just settings, satnav, and radio (or Android Auto/carplay). Not having to interact with a touch surface while driving is one of my favorite features of my car, and there are a lot of other things that I love about it too.

Sorry I don't check if a webpage requires 3rd party scripts before I post them for you. Leave it blocked and moved on I guess?

Or there's an LTE chip soldered in there somewhere...

Custom flashes are probably more likely given the system integration of the head unit. UBlock for your car. How crazy is that?

They're good for longevity, but they're bad for quarterly profits. In the US, we care much more for the latter.
