Remember the car jacking scene in Terminator 3?
The thing that pisses me off most is that cars have these vulnerabilities, and automakers do a shit job of protecting them, but do just a good enough job to keep me, the owner, from playing with them.
Is there an option to physically disable this?
When i finally get an EV I don’t want it to be online in any form, is it even possible to get one like that?
It is not just EVs, this can be done on almost every new car in some form or another.
Install the latest update and hope for the best.
Or try disabling bluetooth.
Or try to get a car without autonomous parking.
Seems like there is no real option though.
Install the latest update and hope for the best.
The addiction is also the cure.
That’s what our economy has become. Sad.
This isn’t really an EV-related thing.
Remove the modem. When I was researching chevy bolts that was the first video I looked up and there was a guy walking through it. It involved opening up the panels and was time consuming but I was willing to do it. Unfortunately, didn’t end up getting a chevy bolt.
Edit: sorry, I didn’t read it and it appears to be bluetooth or radio frequency. Removing the modem would not prevent this attack. Probably update the car and hope for the best. Unless you figure out how to remove rf and bluetooth
Get a used moderately old petrol car and do an EV motor swap into it.
I want the new technology but it has to work like the old, and I can answer myself: Okay boomer!
I’ll have to find a compromise when I finally get an EV.

Somebody did something similar for a Jeep like a decade ago… but somehow people still expect the results to be different now.
These would be better robo taxis
thats a premium feature.
Never buy a tesla, Elon and any employee can just watch you, hell if they really wanted they could drive you into on coming traffic for the fun of it. Majority of those accidents were not.
