As an unfortunate owner of a Chrysler and having owned and driven a ton of other cars I can confidently say Stellantis makes the shittiest cars you can buy in US. On screen ads are just a small piece of an immense garbage island that is this shitty company.

And that’s basically it!
That’s one way to increase running red lights.
Like that sounds like it should be banned by the ntsb or dot… oh wait they don’t exist anymore, or soon to be cut.
I open this article up about pop up ads in chargers. Meanwhile there are 4 pop up ads on the website. Fuck this shit dude.
Lmao, meanwhile I'm reading your comment about ads in an article about ads in a car, and your comment appears on my screen right under an ad for Bumble. (I'm on Lemmy Sync)
I will not buy or watch anything with ads. I can't stand ads. Ads represent everything wrong with the US and capitalism. Just not stop shit shoveled into our faces.
I saw this on Lenny about Jeeps. I asked someone sitting in a new Jeep if she got ads when she came to a stop and she said no. So now I wonder if there is something about the trim level or something. She said it was 1 year old. Maybe this just started.
They could also just be A/B testing shit to see how much backlash they get.
This offends me to the core. Stellantis has made my shit list, and I will never purchase any product they are involved in. EVER !
Their cars are trash anyways so you're better off.
So while you are allowed to use a cars dash for car functions, you should not be drawing someones attention away from the road while at a red light.
How could this be anything but distracted driving.
What happens when this ad pops up, you look at it and read its quite lengthy text, and then get rear ended because you weren't keeping an eye on the rear mirror?
I'd love to see that lawsuit (although it'd suck for the hurt person)
