I for one believe that a law should forbid using computer-controlled
individual motors driving each wheel. Drawing from experience of faulty ABS
systems locking or rapid-fading brakes at highway speeds makes me shudder at
the thought of what an independant-motor system could do should the ECU
become confused. And ECU's are ALWAYS getting confused, especially in areas
with climactic extremes (i.e., western New York). According to statistics I
read, newer computer controlled cars are more reliable and easier to
maintain than older, mechanically controlled vehicles. As a mechanic, who
actually has to deal with this every day for 8 1/2 hours, I can tell you
this is not true. Believe what you want, but I am telling you how it
actually is.
Side note, we replaced a headlight bulb for a BMW 325i today. Bulb price
alone, $120+. For a LIGHT BULB. Why? It auto-dims for 'safety.' With each
day that goes by that I see "state of the art" automotive technology, my
faith in the current auto-trend is shaken a bit more.
