The issue is again the legal differences between hardware and software.
You own a tangible good but you only have a license to intellectual property.
When cars were all hardware it was simple. But now they are more and more software and you only get licenses to use that software even if you do own the hardware it runs on.
Cars are becoming like smartphones and computers.
This actually all started with things like books: You own the book but not its contents.
