I remember driving a nissan leaf. You had an opt-out prompt every time you drove the car.

This is why I like paper contracts. I would simply cross out a stupid clause like this before signing.

99% of the time the rep doesn't care, and if the company can't be bothered to put someone on the other side of the table who is actually paying attention or has bargaining power then they deserve it.
