Built in dashboard electronics

[philio]

A lot of new cars have electronics built in to the dash. They are like little tablets or something. My question is, how do they keep those electronics from burning up or freezing? I was under the impression you shouldn't leave devices like that in a car because of temperatures.

That is a really good question. On a hot day a car can get in the hundreds and the reverse is true of a cold day. How many years have they been putting dashboard computers/electronics in?

I think they must use different materials that can withstand something like that. I was looking at the new Dodge Challenger and it's built in so you can't remove it from the car. Also, wonder what they cost to repair.
