My car got dumbed for me because they killed the 3g network it was running on
Just because you can't use it doesn't mean a hacker can't. If someone discovered a vulnerability in the 3g handshake or encryption protocol, it could be an avenue for an RCE.
Especially when there are no security updates anymore. They should just rip out any possible receiver there is for mobile communication
Honestly if someone manages to figure that out I would want to know, that way I can finally use my cars remote start 😄
