I rented a car a couple years ago, I think a Jeep of some sort (I didn't pick it), that had this feature. When driving on the highway, if there's a car in the lane next to me, I tend to move over to the other side of my lane to give more room, especially around curves. This car had lane-keeping, and would fight with me for the steering wheel, and force me uncomfortably close to the other cars, which is particularly infuriating when you're driving an unfamiliar car in an unfamiliar environment in heavy traffic at 70mph.

It only took about 5 minutes of that before I exited and looked up how to disable it, and it has to be disabled in the menus every time you start the car, there's no way to have it be permanent.

Now whenever I rent a car, I refuse to be given anything from Chrysler or VW.
