Only because the retention method is cheap and not durable enough for repeated removal and reinstallation. Taking off and on parts for access is a necessary function in the transport airplane maintenance world. Designing the parts to be durable enough to come off and back on for the life of the product is the issue. The days of flipping a hood open and being able to access everything are gone. Space and maintenance access are more complex because our vehicles are more complex.A design that requires the front fender to be removed to replace a battery is in itself flawed.
Every time you need to remove body parts to do regular maintenance you are creating room for trouble.
