Qualcomm is about to roll out chips that incorporate something called CryptoManager that should prevent this sort of hacker hijacking.

I can’t watch the youtube video at the moment, but all previous reports like this required the vehicle to be compromised already before someone could take over remotely. Meaning that, the hackers actually gained physical access to the vehicle through some means that allowed them to open up a route to taking remote control. Without that access and preparation, they couldn’t pull it off.
Is that the same with this scenario or did they actually compromise the vehicle entirely remotely?

Sorry but if man can design it a hacker can rape it.

Unpossible, we were assured that it isn’t possible to hack cars.
Just ask Michael Hastings.

Oh, heck, the stupid security key fob with my 1996 Nissan Quest/Mercury Villager sometimes goes dopey, and won’t let us start the car.
A fresh fob would probably cost $100. I prefer having $3 keys for my duplicates. All these things take control from the driver/owner and put them into the computer.

Just out of curiosity, what year of Jeep Grand Cherokee is remote hacking out of the question?

I drive cars built before drive by wire. But I love these new cars! I get all the check engine lights, ABS lights etc. Good clean work that pays really well. 54 computers in an LS460, five in the drivers seat. Something as simple as a weak battery will light up a Christmas tree on the dash.
I really like explaining to Lexus owners that cars do not understand bank accounts. Show your affluence, suckers!

My neighbor resurrects old cars down to the frame. I think this may become an industry.
