Seriously this is such a big problem already .Technology is only getting better for the worst. It's only a matter of time before something really bad happens because of this hacking BS . People who make these kind of devices should be thrown in F#%&ing jail because of its harmful capabilities. If the person building this device wasn't making it for illegal uses. He would have contacted FCA or onstar and tried to explain about this with out incriminating himself.
