Worst thing they ever did was to put electronics on cars. It's all fine and good if you can trade every couple years but the person that has to live with the car when it starts getting old has hell on earth. Even the dealers can't fix them. For one thing when a car malfunctions it's automatically assumed it's in the electronics. I inherited my mothers car and she had it to mechanic after mechanic including the dealer where they bought the car and they replaced all of the electronics piece by piece. It would run for a while and suddenly quit leaving a 94 year old woman stranded. Then when I got the car I did the same thing chasing electronic parts and it kept getting worse until it couldn't be made to start. All along the problem wasn't the electronics at all, the timing chain was going bad. Some idiot came up with the idea of coating the teeth of the sprockets with plastic to make it run quieter and little by little the plastic was flaking off. Had it not been for the electronics a mechanic probably could have determined the problem was with the timing chain and she could have had that replaced or got her another car.
