A car dealer is not going to pass up a sale because the customer won't agree to the manufacturer collecting and selling the customers data.

Sure with software the company can just prevent you from using their product. But a physical item such as a vehicle? Please.

Besides GM was order to allow people to opt-out. They can't force data collection on you like Google can.

Your car will not work if the computer refuses to function.

Dealers don't make the cars. Dealers will just lie about it.
