     @MechaSilvio I remember watching something about cars and software.
     
     The average modern car has 100 million lines of code. Obviously the chance of bugs is near 100% with that much code.
     
     But it gets worse, the code is propitiatory and closed source, and thus the code cannot be studied by the general public for bugs.
     
     But it gets even worse, the code isn't just made by one company - it's made by a dozen or more subcontractors (who aren't talking to each other much / at all).
     
     Additionally, I'm pretty sure that some aspects of the code will be anti-consumer, specifically created to stymie people's ability to repair their vehicles.
     
     Furthermore, it's unlikely that the car manufacturer (and its subcontractors) will continue to maintain the code long after they stop selling the model.
     
     Maybe @deprecated_ii remembers the video.

     @billiam @MechaSilvio that's pretty accurate but I don't remember a specific video that touched on all of it at once
     
     it's worse than just the software, the way the hardware is laid out and communicates is a security nightmare. they'll have critical functions of the car being handled in the same place as the infotainment system because it's more convenient than having separate systems that can't talk to each other
     
     imagine someone hacking your car and steering you into oncoming traffic by accessing your infotainment system over wireless and sending signals to your electronic steering assist system. and that's without considering any government-mandated backdoors, installed for your safety of course

     You're thinking of CAN bus. It's a rabbit hole of crazy, you can access everything via the OBD2 port and even better, it's what allows shit like navigation directions to pop up in the gauge cluster area.
