It's actually ludicrous to have to pay a subscription to keep your car running. I remember buying a Toyota in 2001 and drove it until the wheels were falling off. The engine never had problems as long as you changed the fluids on schedule. I could change the battery or alternator myself because they were easy to reach, it was simple and safe.
Today when you have more electronics it's more things that can go wrong. And warranties on the electronics don't last nearly as long as other car parts. It's sad that cars are going down in quality, becoming more complicated, thus guaranteeing that there will be breakdowns. And when they happen, they won't be cheap to fix because of all of the electronics. Plus you never know if they are being honest during the repair process or just adding in some extra components to make you pay more money. Not like the days when I could do most car repairs myself except for engine or transmission issues!
And then an eight year loan... Talk about a noose around your neck!
They transformed from car dealers to subscription sellers, they know the car industry is overflooded and collapsing, so they use these tactics to make more money from the clients that fall in their trap !
