i agree 100%
i will add cars to this statement also.

Friday i finished repairing a 2024 mazda CX-30. car was in a minor fender bender. needed a front bumper, rt headlight.. headlight was on back order for 2 months. finally got headlight, installed everything car was good to go. proper repairer should check the lights to be sure everything is fine. all the lights worked. the LEFT turn signal plinked fast like it had a poor ground, it also tripped check light on dash. it was hit on other side whey would there a poor ground. double check grounds everything seems fine. scanned car and had NO TROUBLE codes. i happened to look at the car voltage reading, it was 11.9 volts. a bit low but nothing serious car started just fine. put battery charger on it for 15 min. everything works just fine now.
so 11.9 volts on a 12 volt car is low enough to cause computerized lighting problems now? give me a flipping break.
