    There is no justification for “server and infrastructure” for a fucking car. No part of a car should require a single penny of server costs over the entire lifespan.

      I don’t get what you mean.

      The app is intended to remote start your vehicle when you’re out of range of the key fob. I’m not sure how you’d propose that function works without servers and infrastructure.

        This has nothing to do with an app.

        But even ignoring that and pretending that that’s some necessary feature, taking $10 out of the service price would pay for the actual costs for a hundred years, easy. It should be literally illegal to charge a subscription for that.
