My car is built in 2023 (2016 model) and has none of those "features". The most high tech thing is a USB port.
Ah, so no ECU? No RFID engine interlock? No braking assist or lane keep?
I highly doubt it. Post your model. You're 1 software bug away from a dead car.
Proton Saga 1.3, good luck.
Let's see here.
ECU - that has a bug and your dead in the water
Push to start - bug in that system, and you're stuck.
Hill Hold - have a software glitch there and your brake is jammed on.
Sorry bub, there are multiple system on your car where a software glitch will stop it from driving.
Every car has an ECU, those are pretty much tried and tested at this point. Bugs are rare.
I don't have push to start.
I don't have hill hold.
Like I said, the most advanced feature of my car is a USB charger.
The point.
You might be right but how common are those? Ive yet to have a car breakdown over an ECU bug/malfunction but its a small sample size.
Not that common, I think most places try to flash the ECU and if that doesn't work they chuck it. I would not be surprised if a lot of software bugs get resolved as a bad ECU.
Thats a good point and I have had that happen before.
