Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This absolute garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look here.

Ok even if that is the case. Why is it even possible for them to deliver ads to a car? The very fact it could happen "accidently" is more than enough for me to be angry.

Explanation is not excuse. Personally I wouldn't buy a car that has access to the internet in the first place.
