Cool, I actually didn’t know that. For one, because my vehicles as a few years older and don’t have those features (I’m not worried about keeping up with the Joneses like you and your friends) and two, because in all the times I’ve been in an Uber or a Taxi I’ve never seen or heard warning lights go off. Maybe you’re exaggerating (first time for everything!) or just have terrible luck. But it seems really weird to make this a whole generational thing because of a few instances.
Instead of calling these people dumb, perhaps you could put your wealth of knowledge on the subject to some use and politely inform them of the issue and how to deal with it? Might make nice conversation. Even if they’re women, because you may not know this, but women can and should be taught these things too. They’re very capable. They can even be trusted to put air in a tire (I know, crazy).

When I mean next door, I mean next door. "I'll just call a plumber who knows what he is doing" I have 4 guys in a rental who couldn't tighten the screw on a loose oven handle, " it broke off" they said.

Can you list your rental properties so we can inform them that instead of doing your job without fuss you’re doing it and then putting your tenants on blast online?
