Oh I don't know, the same culture that skips over insuring that a VW e-Golf or Audi e-tron does not put up warnings to get the oil changed. Yes, they really do prompt their owners to have an oil change and service.

It simply can come down to not having a change management system let along a project management system that is effective. then there is the opposite systems, the ones where getting even a minor change in can be frustrating and results in many not bothering to fix the simple issues.

Wait are you complaining that the car tells you to take it for service? I have a 2009 VW and I actually really like this feature. I just wait for it to say service is due in 30 days and schedule something with the shop. Modern cars only need service about every 12 months so it's nice to not have to try to remember.
He's complaining his electric car, that doesn't have engine oil, is telling him to get his engine oil changed.
Tested a KIA e-Niro during the weekend and it had gas stations in the points of interest list on the infotainment system. Cute. :) To their defense, many / most gas stations sell lots of useful stuff and have services apart from gas so there is that.
