Can't say I've ever had issues with any of the touch screen systems on Fords, Mazdas and Tesla's I've own/ed

When driving touch screen is maps, all interactions come from the steering wheel or a voice command except for heating and thats pretty quick, its not like you dont have to look at what the dial is on for physical controls.

I could control the heating and other environmental settings in every car I've ever owned without ever looking at them. You could immediately feel which way a dial was currently pointing. The buttons were either in a clearly distinguishable pattern or marked with a ridge or other touch-friendly indication so you could tell which was which within a row.
