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.

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.
