When people complain about modern car complexity I think of headlights with electric motors and I realize their hypocrisy

Well, those never had any problems, while all four window regulators on my 2002 BMW had to be replaced, at $900 each.
Every single popup headlight never had issues.

In the winter they could freeze shut due to ice, then unsuspecting people would attempt to operate them sometimes damaging the motor.

Another key thing to note is, unlike other luxury features if this breaks you absolutely have to get it repaired.
