Too much of a good thing: Most US drivers aren't making use of the high-tech features in their cars because most already have similar features in their smartphones.

SAN FRANCISCO: Drivers are steering clear of some new technology in cars, according to a survey, raising questions about whether car makers are moving too quickly to incorporate sophisticated technology. 

Carmakers are adding everything from remote car unlocking to self-parking systems in their newest models as they try to make vehicles more connected to the Internet and more automated.
