Headlights that turn themselves on and off.... heated mirrors, seats and steering wheel, inflation sensors on the tires, bluetooth, software.... chips...   They have doubled the price of the machine by adding costly and unnecessary maintenance nightmares to it.  It would be fine if that was confined to luxury cars. But a GD pick-up is 50 g's now.

Spoke to a woman this morning, her new car's ABS was randomly applying the brakes, dealer says they do not yet make the replacement part.  But they will sell her a new car. 

And that is the scam, it is all about selling you a new car as fast as possible. You can't work on them, and if you know how you have to have expensive scanners and subs for updates. 

Best thing you can do if you bought one is trade it in before the warranty expires.  Then you get into at what milage can you get the most for your trade which means you are buying a new car even sooner.

Hide and watch, very soon will come the outlawing of driving any vehicle more than a few years old.
