Tbh, it would be kind of nice if sensors weren’t put in easily damaged areas of cars. They’re part of why bumpers and tailgates are so much more expensive. I wonder if cars could have all the safety features using a couple little LIDAR and camera packages instead of chips on every piece of plastic.
Yep I’ve recently learned that a crushed bumper can total a car, there’s thousands of dollars of electronics in there somehow, it’s insane. I miss that car.

My question is, why does the sensor cost so much? 🤔
Well you take a 30¢ sensor and put a GM part number on it and magically poof it costs $300.
