This problem of too much integration is not limited to cars. The same for washing machines, TV's, etc, etc. The 'smart' electronics and UI are always early to break, become obsolete or unsupported, and they're usually by far the most expensive 'component' to repair or replace, and often aren't even available after a few years. Also they're completely custom - there's no way to substitute something generic. We need to get back to more modular hardware.
