I’ll accept this when the car comes for free.

The Rules
Posts must be:

And that’s basically it!
nobody deserves it more than dodge charger owners
Probably for bail bondsmen
So... um... will the buyer get money from Dodge to drive this shit then?
We need to tally up all the accidents and pedestrian hit-and-runs that occur involving cars with this “feature.” It would likely be enough of an increase you could reasonably make a class action lawsuit. I have no sympathy whatsoever for a car manufacturer that can’t get it through their heads that distracted driving is a major cause of accidents, and could easily happen by their own features.
That's the grim truth, isn't it
I'd quit my job and start running the campaign for anyone who's willing to run on outlawing this shit. I'd work 75 hour weeks handing out fliers about distracted driving.
They picked some good frogs to test this on
Brand new 2024 vehicle: I disabled all connectivity. No software updates, no remote start through their app, nothing; it will never connect to the internet. These greedy car and ad companies have lost the benefit of the doubt. Literally no amount of money will ever be enough for these giant corporations...
If you've bought any Stellantis Fiat Chrysler Dodge Jeep etc. product in the last 20 years then you deserve this. Absolute junk.
You mean the "oopsie poopsie it's just a glitch nothing to see here" thing that was happening to jeeps a little while ago?
Color me shocked
We dun fucked up when we made tarring and feathering CEOs illegal.
But I'm still not allowed to touch my cellphone while behind the wheel because the screen is too distracting, right?
Before starting the engine please watch this 30 second unskippable ad
Saying "before x" and giving the amount of time kinda implies unskippable.
And so it begins.
Excited to see what cool things people can do with a jailbroken car.
