This headline is hopelessly overbroad in its use of “quality” and “tech”. If this trend is real is it about OEMs cheaping out and using crappy UI and ergonomics. Touch panel door handles sound godawful but I haven’t seen those yet. I don’t think the tech used in the various ECUs in a modern car has demonstrably caused a decrease in quality, and it has certainly increased capabilities.
