> BUT! As long as that feature doesn't have recurring costs to the manufacturer (heated seats), it should be a one-time fee, and transfer with ownership.

What if it's a sort of payment plan?

E.g. if we assume heated seats costs $1000 and the consumer wants to pay for this monthly over ten years then it'll be 1000/12/10=$8.33 plus interest per month.

Of course, this should mean that once repaid, it's the property of the owner and therefore transferred at resale.
