If you come up with a multi-wire connector that will last 30 years and not corrode or pull loose, you can sell it by the millions and be the hero of every automobile manufacturer.

Such connectors exist, however car makers don't use them because they cost more than what they're using now, and they don't care about the car lasting 30 or even 20 years. Based on what's in the junkyard I work at, they seem to be aiming for about 10-15.
