Prediction from 2015: High tech won’t be reliable

Quotes

“The more electronic stuff automakers put into cars, the more and more people have to treat them like really big cell phones. Show of hands — who WANTS to visit their carrier store?

That’s what I thought.

Good luck with these nine-speed transmissions, VVT systems, DI setups and whatnot. Go ask the BMW SMG owners how well advanced trans tech works after a decade. Say what one will about 2000-2010 cars, but only the high-end cars had tech which could really hurt reliability long term. Today base cars have dual clutch transmissions and direct injection. One thing’s (for) sure; we’re in for some interesting times when it comes to long-term reliability and user friendliness of modern cars.”
