You'd need to have a key for the car. If a child can get access to the car, you may have a fingerprint scanner. Without that scan the car only goes to the school and back.
A “dear leader” has a temper tantrum and programs all conservative owned cars to drive into the ocean, off a cliff or straight to a fema camp.
It's like fearing that your microwave oven goes postal on you. Cars won't be remotely programmable. It is neither necessary, nor safe. All the programming will be done at the dealerships, and you can bet that it will be tamper-proof as a condition for getting insured.
"Of course, of course. It is a silly thing to be concerned about," said the NSA spokesperson.

And then there's Michael Hastings...
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!

I'm starting a new job Monday. This will impact my ability to quickly ping to this list. Don't worry if I don't promptly ping list to an article you've told me about. I'll get there. Eventually.
I doubt you are as uninformed as your post seems to indicate, so I will remind you that:
Since 1996, ALL vehicles sold in North America, no matter the brand, have OBD-II, which records everything going on with the mechanicals and electronics of the vehicle.
Vehicles equipped with ONSTAR and its kin can be shut down remotely by the police if they ask the manufacturer for the needed codes. Hell, I’ve seen TV ads that TOUT this intrusion, because “it’s for the children”.
Electric power steering and “self-parking” are also easily hacked.
I can unplug my microwave. I cannot unplug ONSTAR, because even when I stop paying for it, GM keeps watching “for statistical purposes only”.
Cars already ARE remotely controlled at times. That you refuse to see it is scarier than that fact.
