Why would they die immediately? They're still connected, the battery still has juice, water usually isn't an impediment to electricity, and there's usually a timer on the windows.

Personally, I think the electronics on vehicles are getting out of hand. If you're too stupid to operate a car, you're too stupid to operate a car.

My work Suburban had the light go out behind the speedometer: the part was about $650, a whole cemented-LED module. Now the third brake light is out: about $265.

I wonder if you can special-order a car that isn't built to outsmart the driver and boost the manufacturer's income?
