That kind of nickel and dime treatment for a car over $80K is annoying. If I buy a car with a feature that feature should not die. GPS updates? OK I'd pay it is new data they collected. But the actual feature didn't change or add funtionality.

They need a human assistant (Homo sapiens - intelligent!) to implement this feature. They must pay it.

It takes outsourcing the job to a country where $12.50 a month makes decent money (and lets them save for themselves

). That's why the wording is limited. If they introduced a full-featured chat for the lonely it would cost much more.
