“If you pay us for a service then there is a chance that we won’t be able to fulfill our end of the agreement because of a perceived malfeasance to an unrelated company.”

My BMW gives me a warning 3 minutes after I start driving then shuts up about it. “SOS system malfunction”. I will translate, “I cant see the call home box with a GPS and cell phone”!
