    I suppose not, but you are mixing two things: a subscription fee and a warranty. They are differnt things.

    I obviously agree that a subscrition model for a car hardware features, even if backed by software, is stupid but you are not paying to have it repaired if broken, you are paying for another thing: the use of it no matter how stupid the thing may be.
