No updates: In Russia, foreign householders faced new restrictions

In Russia, Porsche, Skoda, Kia, Infiniti, Nissan, Renault and Mercedes-Benz have turned off most digital services. The Russian Federation also has a shortage of complex electronic components that make it impossible to repair modern models. In Russia, the owners of western car manufacturers turn off software updates. Now Russian foreign cars can not take advantage of all the functions of their cars. This was reported on Wardsauto.

For cars Porsche, Skoda, Kia, Infiniti, Nissan, Renault and Mercedes-Benz have turned off most digital services. These include remote carving the car and the remote start of the engine. Western car manufacturers also closed access to their Russian dealers' service bases. This complicated the diagnosis and maintenance of cars. Russian drivers invented a workaway to solve problems with digital services. They design them from phones that have foreign seven-cards installed.

Even cars imported into the Russian Federation illegally identified problems with software updating. Most car manufacturers are able to track such cars. Another problem for the Russians was the exclusion of the market from cancellation campaigns. If a factory defect is found on the car, the owners will have to correct them with their own expense. Russia also has a shortage of complex electronic components. Gray dealers often do not have digital keys and tools to adjust the software.
