"Privacy advocates like Amico say the vehicle’s infotainment system may also provide a plethora of information. He said when a driver gets behind the wheel, they typically synchronize their cell phone to the vehicle’s infotainment system and “that creates a mini clone of their phone in the car.”
“All of their texts, phone calls, contacts, camera data, and thousands of pieces of personal data are stored,” Amico said."
Not to mention that the navigational system remembers every address you’ve stored. Please remember to clear that when trading car in.
I guess that means pull the battery out of the phone.... But
in reality we are pretty much monitored 24 hours a day now.

YIKES!!!!
Plenty of people would regard that as a bug, not a feature. The default setting should be "Do not store."
