    Most manufacturers are doing this.

    Most people don’t seem to care since they understand there are ongoing server and infrastructure costs.

      There is no justification for “server and infrastructure” for a fucking car. No part of a car should require a single penny of server costs over the entire lifespan.

        I don’t get what you mean.

        The app is intended to remote start your vehicle when you’re out of range of the key fob. I’m not sure how you’d propose that function works without servers and infrastructure.
