Perhaps the manufacturers would if they could, but they can't. The UFOC (Uniform Franchise Offering Circular) and the FTC will not permit it. The dealer is a franchise, protected by law, and independently owned and operated. If you choose the franchising model, those are the rules you must play by. The company store model, such as Tesla, does not have this problem, but they have other problems.
