For the first time in 28 years of JD Power’s car owner survey, there is a consecutive year-over-year decline in satisfaction, with most of the ire directed toward in-car infotainment.
As someone working in the industry I dislike it as well. Many of the features have some really good usecases but the problem is just that they’re enabled/available for every user even if most people only use a small subset of features so the settings/interface gets so cluttered.
In my opinion though, the move away from physical interfaces towards touchscreens is way worse than the clutter.

Wife and I had a car’s head gasket go and total the engine. We’re now looking at vehicles. Strongly like the Honda Pilot, in part, because it still has physical buttons for the temp controls. The last car was all touchscreen.
Now this is one of the features I want a button or knob for. Go ahead and bury all the advanced features in touchscreen menus but please don’t do that for the basic things I regularly use while driving like temperature, fan, volume, and seek.
