BMW does a lot of this kind of shenanigans, not just with their heated seats. They also charge extra to unlock the horsepower of their engines. There are several performance levels which have the exact same engine with only a few differen

Sadly, heaps of paperwork with checklists does relatively little to protect safety in the end. Everyone just spends a lot of time filling out paperwork to justify whatever thing they want to do. At least when it comes to corporations and r
