You don’t actually own the car you bought, it’s impossible to repair via third party
I think this is a valid point, but it isn’t just a thing in the electric car industry. Gas engine cars are doing this shit too. My girlfriend’s new chevy malibu has an app that lets you start the car remotely from your phone, but you have to pay a subscription to use the feature. The enshitification is everywhere.
You’re right, lithium battery fires are more difficult to extinguish.
It’s less than 6 months old and she’s already had two major electrical problems with it, which were thankfully covered under warranty. The malibu she had before this one was amazing though.

She should sell that car, and buy the best possible older lexus with the funds haha. That malibu won’t be on the road in 5 years
