Durability Product Quality Survey???

Gotcha.

Just so everyone knows, I ended up taking the survey and it was pretty much a waste of time. It didn't ask for any personal info other than my email address (which they already had) but they did ask a few questions concerning what kind of cell phone I have and which carrier I use. What that has to do with the car is beyond me...

I think that explains the point of the survey very well. The whole car connectivity debate is a big issue in the industry right now. It seems that many car makers are coming around to the thinking that rather than include a standalone infotainmet system with screen that will be obsolete in 5 years, they are now going to have more of a bare HMI that connects to your cellphone and lets it do all the navigating, playing music, texting, etc.

They care more about putting gadgets like infotaiment system and navigation with outdated maps than issues like paint, noises, rust, etc (maybe because they get this feedback from the service and dealers).

Agreed.
