That would be the dealership, not Audi themselves. On top of that she said she would have preferred paying for a rental car. Okay? Go ahead and pay for the rental. I’m not supporting putting cameras or audio recorders in loaners, but this woman/article is dumb.
What a dummy, not reading all the fine print and not spending hundreds of extra dollars to enjoy the privacy that a reasonable person would just expect
That’s not what I said at all. If you get in the car and realize you don’t want to be in that car and would rather pay for a rental, you can always pay for a rental. It is literally an option that you have. If you say you would rather pay for a rental and then you don’t, that is on you. It’s creepy, but the dealership can do what they want with their loaners they give to people for free. If you don’t like the free transportation provided by the dealership, don’t take the free transportation provided by the dealership. Not like she didn’t see the gigantic box in the car when she got in. Have your car serviced at a different dealership. Drop the car off and use alternate transportation. Call corporate and complain. But don’t say you would rather do an option available to you and then not choose that option.
She said she would have paid the $700 if she’d known the level of surveillance from the Lytx apparatus at the time. And you know not everybody can afford to pay $700 right? For a thing that’s basically necessary to exist for working Americans?
First of all, no she did not say that. Did you read the article? Not only did she not say that, it specifically says it is constantly monitoring you and telling you it is monitoring you by telling you what to do. I am unsure what you think you are getting out of lying? I already said I do not support this, I am just pointing out stupidity in this particular article.
You realize that many dealerships don’t offer free loaner cars at all right? People deal with not having transportation given to them while their car is being worked on every day. In fact, the majority of Americans are not given free transportation while their vehicle is being worked on when it breaks down. So your whole argument there goes right down the drain.
Yeah, and I understand that time passes between signing an agreement and hearing your car beep at you from a device installed on the passenger side.
…Okay? And she got lucky, or thought she did, and now is apparently not in the position to pay $700 any more. Even if she is, plenty of people wouldn’t be.
Just keep getting angry about what you perceive instead of rightfully getting angry about the facts.
