Mine’s the same as it’s been for a year and a half, and the same as my ICE was before that. Stop fearmongering.

Time to force ‘right to repair’ on car manufacturers, including reasonable pricing for replacement parts and open diagnostic hardware. Or this will continue to get worse.
Hyundai got unwanted attention for quoting $50,000 CAD for a replacement battery for a 2017 Ioniq last week.

That’s completely contrary to all of the TCO calculations I ran before I bought my car, and 2 years in, they are still marching up as expected.
