Don't know why you're getting downvoted. I've set my mirrors like this for years. No blind spots.

I know the new Tuscons have a button where you can disable the engine shut off. You just have to press it every time you start the car.

Plus, you’d have to have the IQ of a tomato to not buckle your seatbelt.

But you have to put that $4 supreme gas in that thing huh?
IDK what's worse...
Yeah, I was running up some Family Truckster-style gas costs before work from home. Still, not having to deal with any nannies and not having a CVT make it worthwhile.

I went to junk yard and got a male end of the seat buckle for 3 dollars for my dad. He plugged it in that day and has never had to worry about the seat buckle chime since then.

Mine does this too, but you can turn it off. The only annoying thing with this one is that you can't disable it permanently. You have to hit the button to turn it off every time you start a new drive.
That’s very easy to disable with an ECU remap. Or depending on your year Jeep there’s even easier methods. Just Google start-stop disable and you should see the links to several Jeep forums where they’ll tell you how to permanently disable it.

The downvotes are all the people who have all 3 mirrors pointed behind them and thus have blind spots. I see it on vehicles every day.
If I’m behind you and I can see your eyes in your side view mirror, it’s way off from where it should be. It’s called a “side view” mirror for a reason, it should be aimed so you can see what’s beside your vehicle.

Engine shutoff at a stop.
Active Fuel Management in GMs is horrible. Causes other failures.

Incessant seatbelt chimes have been a thing for like two decades now.

Toyota recall program is a pain in the butt. About ten inconsequential issues range from update the weight load limit by 1.8 pounds to electric sliding doors that working perfectly until the recall fix was implemented.
And with each notice comes a warning that the car should be parked until fixed.

My fishing partner has a brand new fully loaded Dodge diesel. Anyone that has launched a boat before knows that when you launch in the early morning, you turn the truck’s lights off as a courtesy for anyone else backing down. Well……. You can’t just simply ‘turn the lights off’. It has to be programmed in somehow and my buddy hasn’t taken to time to figure it out. So, I’m the dick at the launch blinding you when you back it in.

Nah. It happened every 2 1/2 hours or so without fail and showed a cup of coffee. It was on a timer

I imagine most brands let you turn things off.
Unfortunately not all. The Jeep I mentioned has a button to turn off the auto stop/start, but you have to press it every time you start the car.
My Ram has something called Multiple Displacement System, where the truck turns off four of the cylinders when at cruising speed. And its fricking annoying, because when lightly accelerating, the truck will temporarily bog down then zoom and slightly lurch forward when the cylinders engage. The only ways to turn it off is either with a tuner (which may void the warranty) or by going through a series of manual gear changes whenever I start the truck.
They really need to make the driving experience less annoying by making it easier to turn this stupid shite off permanently.
