Honda Drivers Now Have to Pay a Subscription to Open Their Garage Door

Seriously? From convenient to annoying, monthly subscription services have risen beyond their convenience and straight into annoyance. What started as paywalls to unlock features already available on owned vehicles – as was the case with BMW and its pay-to-heat-the-seat debacle – and also more advanced paywalls, like Tesla’s full self-driving function.While the latter makes sense because it costs money to run data centers, hire people to run them, and pay developers to improve the system, among many other things, hiding basic functions and features behind paywalls is generally questioned in the industry. Now, we have yet another pay-to-do-something story, and this time, Honda has come under fire thanks to a customer and his new Honda Passport.
