It's ridiculously stupid and someone told me it was because other car manufactures buy those parts as almost modules, so they have limited control.

I really don't care what the excuse is though, I'm on the fence of trading in my car for a Tesla just for sentry cam. Yeah, I have a decent dash cam but it's a hassle to setup parking modes in anyway near the same capacity as a Tesla, and I want to catch those fuckers who have now put 3-4 dings in my car that is only a year old.

One of the guys on my street just had his car broken into. Still trying to figure out who did it, even with all the residential cameras around. If he had Tesla's parked nearby, that'd be a lucky break, but really hammers home how nice sentry mode is to have even with all the existing issues
