“Many, many, many more things to go wrong!”

Yeah, but it’ll only cost you “$200” for a “diagnostic fee” at the dealer and then $200/hour to fix what the “diagnostic fee” found.

Hmmm...you can argue the opposite. If every function has a separate knob or button, they’re all failure points too. That said, if *everything* is through the screen, and it fails, you can barely operate the car comfortably (e.g. HVAC). Most OEM’s are moving to a blend of screens and buttons.

It’s not just more things that can go wrong. I also find it ironic that many states have made it a ticketable offense to use your phone while driving, yet modern cars now rely on screens that force you to look away from the road just to adjust something like the heater fan. That seems to me to be more dangerous than using a phone while driving.

Uh, no. Only one thing that could go wrong that can take out the entire vehicle.
