State tax filing

Why does Turbotax continue to expect Connecticut personal property taxes to be entered as car registration fees? CT registration fees are not based on value, and they are not renewed annually (they are every two years at a set fee). We do pay property tax on cars to our towns annually.

In order to get the deduction in past years, I entered our cars under registration fees, but it felt wrong, and I sent feedback to Turbotax. Bottom-line, should CT property tax on cars be entered as "registration fees" on the federal tax screens, even through it's not a registration fee? And when will Turbotax add a an explanation for CT in a pop-up box for more information?
