Im normally an early adopter for new technologies.

But for cars, I'll sit this one out for awhile.

It's not a defect, it's a new green deal 'energy saving' feature !

That beats wandering into the roadside crowd ass first! Must be that new litigation reduction feature that gets you a break on your insurance as well.

Thats just Joe Biden's new government safety feature - Joe has the option to turn them all off with the flip of a switch. The problem is he forgot where the switch was, so now he can't turn them back on...

LOL it’s the 12 volt battery crossover connection to run the ass old technology of the actual cars instruments, radio. Seats, Windows, electric steering, brakes…..etc. The Actual Power pack for the car can get too hot and ends up burning up the connection connected to the 12 volt systems.

There is also a recall on select models for some missing bushing in the trans that makes owners think the vehicle is in Park, but it's not.
Apparently, vehicles are just rolling away on their own & banging into other vehicles, barriers etc. :ROFLMAO:

It's getting damn hard to park these days! Used to be all I needed to avoid was shitbox beater vehicles, then had to add exploding Tesla's and other e-vehicles, now have to add all new ferds to the list - sheeesh :rolleyes:

We don’t need him screwing shit up a second time around. Our government is doing just fine on their own thanks.

That's fake! Battery is charged at dealer and lasts the life of the car!

Why don't they have the new ass motors run everything? Wife has a Niro and she loves it but we had the battery quit with zero warning and stranded her (18mo old car). Error messages never even hinted at 12V battery being the issue. This is dumb. OEMs need to get real and DUMP the battery altogether.

Then how would you start the car? Hand crank up front again?
