I find it insane that with modern computing and displays, they still just render a vague check engine light despite being able to easily display the specifics.

Ding ding! You got a flat tire dude! You can tell because I'm showing you this symbol "!"

Oh, wanna know which one? Just go outside and check it out buddy! It would be the one that looks flat.

You get all this great information for just $400 bucks! 100 per each tire monitor.

Dude, my goodness! Can they do worse?
