See this is the problem with the law being so slow. I'm all for innovation, but an infotainment system that can brick the car* is an indicator that automakers are messing with critical systems.
There should be enforceable safety controls and quality standards to ensure they're not slopping out updates designed to brick your car and/or make things obsolete.
I'm not buying a Jeep ever, but everyone should follow some rules.
