On the contrary, thanks to the infrastructure bill, it will be the opposite in the future. This legislation mandates that all vehicles must have some sort of safety interlock system that's able to detect whether or not a driver is impaired using image recognition, software and cameras. In addition, the government wishes to track vehicle operators mileage. In order to do so, there must be some sort of telemetry devices that phone home for the purpose of usage fees. You can thank President, Biden and the Congress for taking away even more of your privacy.

I drive a 2023 VW, it came with remote start through the key fob and the smart phone app. For about 2 months, I noticed that the key fob stopped working when trying to remote start the car. This was right around a year after "buying" the car. My first thought was that it was a year "trial" of the remote start function that expired and I was never informed about at the dealer. I immediately thought of Louis' take on these practices. I then decided to load the app which I never use and upon logging in, I had to accept not one but two new terms of service before even getting to the car information. Once there, I noticed that it was still covered under the remote start package and to my surprise, the key fob remote start button combo began to work again. At this point, I'm assuming that I needed to log back into the app and accept the new TOS before the key fob worked to remote start "my" car.

@clinttube Час назад

Just to clarify, does the key fob remote start operate via direct radio link to your car like traditional systems? I'm assuming that is what you're saying, just wondering if they have an intermediated system like if it had a small cell transceiver and therefore the fob can operate anywhere in the world theoretically but has to get routed around (like the case in this video as I understand it). If they actually actively disabled your entirely independent remote start system that is range bound to your car to get you to sign TOS, that HAS to be illegal. Why couldn't they just refuse to unlock the doors or let the engine start instead? They could and eventually, they surely will. Preemptive PS Edit: I think what happened in this video (as I understand it) SHOULD also be illegal, but I wouldn't bet money on it. In the situation I describe above, I'd bet money that IS illegal already.

After the engine was installed by a certified mechanic, the car had to go to the nearest Mazda dealer to certify the installation was done correctly, connect the car to their computers and finally give me the warranty on the core. I told Mazda upfront I modified their OEM ECU to trigger the fans on a lower coolant temperature to prolong engine life and increased idle for better oil pressure. They were 100% okay with it. Not only I drive my car happily again, I get a 2 year / 20.000 KM warranty on the engine core for a 2005 car. Mazda in Europe and Japan are MVPs.

This makes it impossible for anyone to manufacture a simple to repair, basic car like the old pre 80's VW Beetles and Buses. Big daddy government helped to create this monster. Now the car companies are taking advantage of the computers they had to put into cars in order to meet CAFE standards to screw the customers with SaaS(software as a service) agreements. So now the customers are in the position of having to get on their knees to big daddy government and ask them to put some controls on the monster they helped to create in the first place.

Many modern cars have the ability to learn your garage door opener code so you can easily open your door without having to carry the remote. Tesla wants you to pay $45 a year for a MyQ subscription. I guess that didn't go over very well so now they will sell you a $350 option to do the same thing. Me? I just keep the damn remote clipped to my visor. Free.

I bought a Mazda this year and I didn't even bother installing the Mazda Connect App when I actually read the EULA and saw there was a section where I would be giving Mazda permission to share my driving data with 3rd parties. I unfortunately can't use the remote start as a result of not allowing them to spy on me.

The real issue isn't the requirement to pay for cellular services. That is only fair. The real problem is that they stopped offering keyfob-based remote start. Sure, you can install a third-party one, but how hard would it have been to keep offering an OEM version?

BMW is doing the same thing, at least in their MINI product. You cannot use remote start without a subscription. Also, the car lacks the integrated garage door opener people have become accustomed to for decades. If you don't want to have the opener in your car and use MyQ, you also need a subscription pay service. Unless customers reject products that do this, it will continue to expand.

I sympathise with this alot. I'm in Europe (Netherlands) and I have 5 year private lease contract for my Electric VW car. One of the great features (especialy in winter time) is that i can go on the phone app for my car and remotely tell it to warm the interior and (if there is snow or ice) i can tell it to heat the windows to melt the ice in advance. However, 3 years into the contract, it tells me my subscription term of this usage has expired and i had to spend a little under 200 euro's to keep using this feature for the remaining 2 years. So i get there is a certain cost to provide a connection to my car and use this kind of feature remotely. HOWEVER, this is by no means made clear up front it's only for the first 3 years of the contract and secondly there is no alternative way to use this functionality. It simply is not something i can do from within the car. There are no buttons, there is no functionality in the on board system that enables you to have your car perform this functionality outside of the app.

Please correct me! If I remember wrongly, there is a clause in the legislation that allows reconstruction (creating a copy of the original) If you are not educated in the field you are copying and creating for your own use! Which is a stupid clause because it allows physical and financial damage to be caused, but allows you to make a copy of the product for your own use.

Part of the reason why Mazda charges for this service is because it's working off of a Celluar network ( AT&T). And AT&T isn't going to do THIS for free. And Mazda doesn't own its own Celluar networks. They use Celluar networks for wider coverage and the ability to lock or unlock or start your car from anywhere.. VS only having the range of a keyfob. But then also the MAZDA app also tells you your amount of fuel left in the car, the status of the car over all ( at least in my CX-9 it does) as well as even reporting any Error code or in my case Low oil level..

You should be spraying under your car with some oil product unless you live in a desert and your car sees no moisture. Mazdas are reliable otherwise, definitely compared to most other brands, close to Toyota/Lexus though those surely rust less. Mazdas are probably more reliable than Hondas at this point. Just a few examples are Honda engines diluting the engine oil with gasoline over time and using CVT transmissions which Mazda never even bothered with, thankfully.

@jceggbert5 12 минут назад

I'm going to defend them a little bit. I bought a 2022 Hyundai. It came with a 3-year trial of BlueLink. BlueLink is the cellular part of the vehicle that allows onstar-like auto 911 during a crash, remote diagnostics with the app, and the ability to unlock and start the car from anywhere with my phone. When that trial ends next year, the cellular features go away, but nothing on my fob stops working, including keyless entry and remote start (via fob). I fully understand the need to pay for cellular connectivity after a certain period. 3 years is also the length of time of free maintenance (oil change, filters, etc.). I won't miss the features and I won't pay for BlueLink. I expect that Mazda is doing the same thing - disabling free cell connectivity after 3 years.
