I'm not sure I'd go that far. OTA "automatic update" probably not a good idea. Downloadable/flashable at the dealer OK, no need to go as far as swapping out ROM modules.
Following avionics software engineering standards should be absolutely required. Entertainment/nav systems that require network access should be 100% air-gapped from the vehicle control systems.
