Manufacturers don't design their cars to last 20 years, for most probably not even 10 so steel pipe is not only cheaper but also good enough, why would they use a more expensive material that would outlast the rest of the car?

Our cars are now up to 20 years old and their pipes are corroding. If we want our cars to last longer we use different materials.

Yup steel pipe is "good enough" and much cheaper to buy and faster to install on the production line than anything else, thats the only reason for it.
