    There certainly are places where technology and electronics can improve a car, but replacing one of the most basic, reliable mechanical functions such as a latch is arguably stupid. It’s just adding numerous more failure points. It’s form over function.

      Radio/media and climate controls should not be on a f*ing touch screen either.

        How tf are you meant to change the climate settings on a touch screen when not looking at it? Is this where the “touch” in “touch screen” comes in?

      Yep, there are many legitimate use-cases for electronics in cars, but THIS is definitely not one of them!
