So everyone will park in the sun and not near trees or buildings.

Garage is just one example where there is no sun.

Yes, and since this is a product specifically marketed to people who live in the area of the world where 100% of parking spaces is shaded it's obviously a bad idea.

What if they instead sold it to people who usually park in non-shaded parking spaces? Would that work, do you think?
