Complete nonsense. The fact I disabled OnStar on my vehicles, for example, is an interesting point of conversation only when I bring them in for an oil change. They happily show me the diagnostic codes it produces and could not care less about it, nor could I.

Your mileage may vary. Each brand is different.
The idea of "Hacking" cars feels great until you realize that this cars are driving in the same road as you
Hobbyist car hackers is a group filled with overconfidence, and overconfidence can lead easily to a hell of pain and a million of ways to shoot yourself in the face. Because electronic sensors tend to be connected with other sensors, that are connected with many other unsuspected things, and those last things can be more important that it seems.
