Reminds me a little of all of these companies that are putting HVAC vent positioning in the touchscreen and making them motorized. There is just absolutely no reason to do that, and it just adds unnecessary complexity and potential failure points.
1. No, we donāt.
Well then we should get rid of auto locking, or automatic headlights, auto wipers, and hands free driving and evey modern feature including electric cars as a whole what about power windows should be get rid of that too? I remember my first car with automatic headlights, I thought it was so cool and my father would ask are you to lazy to turn on the head lights? When he got his first truck with auto headlights he loved it. No more leaving your head lights on and waking up with a dead battery.
Just like everything new and cool, it has its growing pains, but tesla has been doing it for a very long time, and I have yet to hear of someone having a problem with it, im sure someone has, but all my friends with a tesla i have never heard of a problem. Have you seen the cadillac charge door? Thats a pretty bad job. They need to work on that, but i still think its pretty cool they just need to work on it more.
Yeah on my sons car you have to go under the dash to unlock the gas door to open it. it could be a security thing to keep people from messing with the charge port.
Oh donāt absurd. I was responding to your comment. This one:
You do remember writing that, no? The features are not all built into the charger. The feature youāre so desirous of requires more than what is in the supercharger. And no weāre not required to want the feature or admit itās cool. Itās not cool. Itās more to break, and it does.
All of those other features are actually useful. And actually cool. Auto-opening charge port doors are just gimmicky. They save no time or effort. As @macchiaz-o said, I would be okay with Ford adding the feature, but only if they also made the charge port door lockable, or otherwise less prone to being ripped off by car washes.
