Rain sensing windshield wipers. Seriously, are you really that stupid and/or lazy that you can't figure out when you need to turn on the wipers or to flip a little switch or turn a knob? The first thing I thought when I saw those was 'great, just one more thing that can break'.
A close runner up would have to be the heated windshield washer fluid tank. I've often driven in -30 F or colder weather and not once had the windshield washer fluid freeze up on me, not that you really need it in those temperatures. The only possible application I could see would be clearing a frosted over windshield as often happens when first starting up. Is an ice scraper really that hard to use?
Do you remember ever seeing anyone in an ad who reminded you of someone you have met personally?

What happens once they start wiping, does the driver still have to crank the speed up, or does it sense the degree of downpour as well? Also, I haven't heard of the heated fluid tank (it seems like a feature that would malfunction and generate a recall).
