No I meant there was speculation that someone hacked his car. this just proves it can be done. And you know if they admit it’s possible now, then they have been able to do it for some time.
Journalist Michael Hastings Was Investigating CIA Director John Brennan Before He Was Killed in Fiery Car Crash

EXCERPT
Additionally, an anonymous source recently provided the news station with “an alarming email” hacked from CIA contractor Strafor’s President Fred Burton. The email, which was posted on WikiLeaks, claimed that Brennan previously headed up the government’s effort to crackdown on investigative journalists.
“Brennan is behind the witch hunts of investigative journalists learning information from inside the beltway sources,” the alleged email reads. “Note — There is specific tasker from the WH to go after anyone printing materials negative to the Obama agenda (oh my.) Even the FBI is shocked. The Wonder Boys must be in meltdown mode…”
Look up “the boston brakes”. It appears to have been around for awhile.

Its a form of car cyber attack
You apparently didn't read the article completely. There was no speculative "someone" here hacking Charlie's car. Charlie Miller is one of the world's top experts on computer security. He is an ex-NSA computer expert.
He knows exactly who and when and how his Jeep was hacked.
Charlie Miller did it himself, with his own Mac computer, hooked directly into the Jeep's systems by a cable, playing around with changing things in its programing for his hobby of hacking things.
Only he couldn't put it back together again!
This was a direct possession via direct connect hack, not a remote exploit. Not only was it not reprogrammable, the entire head computer had to be replaced. That is funny.
This is sorta like the kid who took his parent's alarm clock apart. . . and got it back together but it didn't work anymore. Who? Me? No, the cat did it, Mom! Honest!
Kind of hard for someone to do to you as you drive down the road.
