    Until the brand goes poof because China didn’t like something they did and poof; now you have a ghost car. Good luck finding repair parts for your car; and fixing the server connection required features

      You are correct, but that has happened with American brands (even cars) before

      At half the price of other EVs, I bet an entire new class of service stores, half mechanic shop, half third party parts, half mods, would spring into existence if these cars are allowed in the market

      Instead, we protect the horrible local brands

        Our tariffs aren’t there to protect local brands they protect every foreign brand in the US too which make up 2/3 of the market.

      never had this experience before.

      But I had exactly this issue many times with Google cancelling stuff I like.
