Autobraking tech will be standard in cars by 2022, but drivers complain of "phantom braking"

I should’ve said the engine will stay on after the second brake application.

I didnt know those were default on.

And how are YOU going to get it cheap? You capable of building these little PCBs?

I get them from iKeyless for around $30, but that’s STILL $25 more than a mechanical AND I don’t have to wait for latter.

The recurring costs are much higher for these smart things, never mind the non-recurring.

Those are good points, BUT I still hold the VAST majority of us are not ever going to have our vehicles even threatened, much less actually stolen. I’ve had some break-ins but never a car stolen.

So I still say the ROI is not worth it for 95% of people. Maybe if you live in the ‘hood.
