Few problems with that:
1) luxury cars that are stolen "on order" are usually placed on a trailer/container straight away and not driven around.
2) you assume you can still talk to the car after it's taken - sadly, GSM/GPS jammers are very cheap and common amongst car thieves.
3) even if you have L5 autonomy, I would be really surprised if you could override what the car is doing while it's being driven. Sounds like a recipe for disaster. I'm not sure anyone should even have the ability to do something as simple as shut it down remotely - there's far too much risk of abuse.
