Honestly, I think consumers allowing manufacturers to start integrating screens into cars was a mistake. Knobs and dials are way easier to nevigate blind (whilst focusing on the road like we're meant to), and none of that stops you plugging in your own third party device for other features, or replacing the headboard yourself. Giant tablets with complex menus are dangerous to drivers, and only serve to milk the consumer for things they already had access to in their car as standard not 10 years ago.

Yes. It needs heavy regulation, physical buttons is all the driver should have access to. We also need to ban subscription services in vehicles. Consumers cannot be trusted to spend responsibly and look out for their best interests.
