I see all of those overdone electronics as a formula for disaster. It is getting so that you can't replace a burned out bulb without having to get the computer reflashed to recognize it. We do NOT need that level of electronics in our cars!!!
And, while I am at it, all of those fobs.... How irritating that everybody has to announce with their horns that they locked their car doors. Every car with power locks has a switch on each front door that will lock/unlock all of the doors. Quietly.
And, does anybody really think that car alarms and door locks will deter thieves? How many times I have seen a rollback driving through the parking lot at a local shopping center with a car on the back and the alarm screaming away! Does anybody challenge that? When was the last time that you saw anybody even question such a vehicle??
I see that years from now, before the "useful" life of many of these cars has been used up, they will be in junkyards because of electronic failures. IMHO, people will get sick of paying $100 for a replacement car key. They will also get tired of having to go to a dealer for every little sensor replacement to get the computer reflashed - at a C-note a clip. Most small shops will not be able to afford the tools to do this.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
