Not only the buttons but also a lot of parts which are electric when they really don't have to.

My brother, who has three kids, tried out a SUV which had an electric hatchback, where you have to trigger the trunk closing with a button. With a manual hatchback he could fill all the luggage in the trunk and just slam the door, without any problem. But now the electric hatchback would not close if the car felt there was a luggage in the way.

In the end they had to remove the luggage, close the trunk and fill the trunk from the side doors.
