Yeah, local repair guy keeps bringing that up…the problem is, manufacturers don’t have the infrastructure to be able to repair every vehicle…
John Deere found that out with pissed off farmers…
I had an issue with the wife’s DEF system 1.5 hrs from home headed out of state with a flatbed…called dealer because of threats going into limp mode. One dealer was 3 weeks out and the other was 2…WTF?
luckily, I found a repair place that was able to assess…it was a **** software update…luckily, an entrepreneur they knew, saw the potential and started an automotive software update company purchasing the rights from manufacturers…1 day and $800 later, I was headed out of state…
Just getting a NAV system update is over $100.
I get system updates for my phone and desktop computers all the time that just get sent for free and basically without my involvement at all.
How is a digital map and GPS update worth $100+...?
Please seat yourself.
I like the very things you hate.
