My dad had a 2018 Ford pickup. The truck lacked a touchscreen and had a basic setup. Yet the truck could still be locked from being turned on if he missed a monthly payment.

You know when you buy a new Ford mustang, people have found a clause in the paperwork that says any information they collect about your driving habits can be given to law enforcement any time they request it, without telling you..... The Internet is no longer a valid source of information. Too many lies. Right to your face too. Yet everyone falls in line when the Almighty Google says it's true.

[@Virrup]

Correct They can track it and disable the starter but the thieve would have to turn off the car for that to work

[@H.R.Pufnstuf]

​@@VirrupYeah, that's what was mentioned in the video.

[@jayden7945]

​@@Virrupwell they've got to turn it off at some point

[@LouieCahill-yt7ks]

So then the answers no. They can't use OnStar to stop a car in a persuit

[@blahblahboii]

So car can be remotely accessed. Even if not intended by the developer, the car can be remotely hacked.

[@LouieCahill-yt7ks]

@blahblahboii yeah if it's stationary and yhe engine is switched off. Not if it's on and moving

[@blahblahboii]

@@LouieCahill-yt7ks Its designed to be killable if its stationary. Im not sure what cadillac model(s) are being referred to here, but most likely it is using fly-by-wire throttle. Electronic throttle bodies. Maybe even e-brakes. Maybe even fly-by-wire steering. Modern cars arent just computers on wheels. theyre computer networks on wheels. If it is not a closed network, it is remotely hackable, and most cars these days dont have mechanical controls. They have electronic controls.

[@johnwolf1475]

wait until teh speedometer issues you a ticket for speeding

[@AS-Stardust]

Maybe don't speed?

[@paulshaw3109]

That's why big rush for electric cars! COVID was experimenting on control! While doing all these rules to control more!😮😢😢😢😢

[@richardcarmichael7484]

It's called " stolen vehicle slowdown " he is confusing it with " remote engine block " to bad they can't get the details correct.

Joe didn’t answer the question here but yes, on star can remotely shut a moving vehicle down but only models from 2014 and onward as prior to this, they used a 2G network which is no longer operable for this purpose.

[@frankly1744]

Truth, that's why you get an insurance drop with onstar!

[@JonValtandtheEvilRobots]

Make sure it’s true. Reads blip. Okay it isn’t true.

[@GDAWG.]

“Is that true? Make sure thats true”! Proof right there that he speaks his nonsense before he thinks. 🤦‍♂️

[@paulgabel2029]

For the record....OnStar would never do that without an extensive process. It would have to be established in a court of law that the company is REQUIRED to cooperate by law, and it would still take a court issued warrant before they would even consider interfering with a customers vehicle. What OnStar CAN do and what they WILL do are two different things. They are currently under no obligation to tamper with your car just because the police want them to.

[@JoeyGray-u5k]

On some older cars where they don’t have an electric ignition they use these things in the disrubuter called points and what happens is when you turn it over the distributor spins and the points create spark which fires and turns over the engine this is way older cars are better than newer ones and the cops can only shut off the power source to the ignition which is the battery so the car will still run unless the driver kills the engine

[@j2ko57]

Just for clarification that is true. Onstar can not only disable ignition but they can also straight up turn the car off. Thing is I’ve only heard about that happening if the car is stolen and the owner makes the call. Question is can the cops use it? Probably not. Even if there was some type of subpoena that would grant a police department that access, they would most likely have to get it signed by a judge. During the middle of a chase that’s just not feasible

[@hermancalkins4179]

They shut down my mother's car just to ask her a question that had nothing to do with the operation of the vehicle. She was and still is, angry.

[@jamesringler987]

What vehicle

[@hermancalkins4179]

Buick is all I know.

[@Bloodywasher]

I like how he demontstrates that he talks out of his arse by Jamie disproving his theory and there are still people in the comments going. GAWD DAMN GOVERNMENT. One sec gotta check my ringcam, and agree to my phones privacy conditions without reading them.

[@Telecasterland]

Actually OnStar can send a accelerator disable command so the vehicle also slows to a stop as well. This has been true since about 2006.

[@Gunwhiteghost]

This is awesome, no more high speed chases risking lifes

[@BenJehovah6969]

This would be some kind of classified sattelite tech

[@FlintnChirt]

Not on my 90s truck 😂 off road here we come 😂

[@YoungBenson28]

Remind me of the movie Idiocracy 😅😅😅😅 we getting closer and closer bro

[@Boredomunlocked]

Y’all are all complaining as if yall are going to commit crimes or something. This is a good feature for stopping criminals and making sure they don’t get away.

[@crisrock0128]

Well hey, joe is learning, he fact checked himself.

[@dreamtherapytv]

EMP will have a huge spike in sales

[@smugfrog8111]

My best friend was looking at a Tahoe that had this, and he asked the salesmen "What if I'm the one running from the cops?" Dude was like "Uhhhhh". Yeah, he didn't end up getting that one.

[@sivik_games]

Why are people so proud of being criminals

[@smugfrog8111]

​@@sivik_games What is you definition of a criminal? Because I can tell you it's not only wrong, it's based in a mindset of pure evil. A criminal is someone who actively, maliciously creates victims through their actions. Simply not complying with road piracy or bureaucratic bullshittery is not a crime. The road piracy and bureaucracy is the crime. The invasion of privacy is the crime. You're suffering from severe Stockholm Syndrome. You've been oppressed for so long, generationally so to the point that you don't even see it as oppression anymore. It's just normal. You truly believe it's for your own good too. Scary.

[@backbrothers1]

That was onstar first commercial was about anti theft. They shut down a Cadillac truck during a high-speed chase.

[@DarkNeon27]

Except for the old onstar 2G network was shut down to any GM vehicle older than 2014. So any car prior to that cant be shut off remotely anymore.

[@JoeAmoroso-pe7oh]

I love how the cop car photo is Vegas Metro 🤣🤣🤣

[@brandigan56]

Every vehicle should have a mandatory chip that authorities can use to disable it. That's not to say the police can just go around stopping cars, I'm referring to instances such as vehicle theft or suspected active drunk drivers or emergencies such as a driver passed out or having a seizure or an emergency situation that it would prevent injuries or death's.

[@mrkoolio4475]

Well that sounds great in theory. But the question is how does OnStar connect with the vehicle… That’s right via satellite or the Internet and that connection is contained in your rearview mirror so guess what’s the first thing they do when they steal your car that’s right they disconnect your rearview mirror….. The best way to prevent car theft is to pull your starter fuse out… It’s a pain in the neck but it’s affective

[@urwhack]

Thats why you take out the onstar fuse

[@samabernethy179]

Not planning on doing a high-speed chase anytime soon, but it does help for theft why Cadillacs never gets stolen

[@comedyshortsinc]

Tesla can do that. Hence why I’d NEVER get one. I’ll be damned if any company makes decisions about my property.

[@Nicole19989]

Ferrari and BMW are the same - when you buy one, you don't actually *own* it.

[@westsidecourtesy9949]

A lot of people missed the point. He’s saying if they can do ignition block they have the ability to make it do whatever they want. Things like slow your car down or make it lock the doors and take you to the police station. We have to ask for laws banning this stuff.

[@RedHoodFH]

The most insane part of this video is thinking google will give you an honest answer to that sort of question 😂

[@matt1863]

In 2017 hackers were able to stop a Jeep while it was travelling on a highway. They also turned up the volume to max, enabled the windshield wipers and rolled all the windows down.

[@marcopolozx11]

Sad but true I suppose. It did help me recover a big-dollar suburban when I worked at a local Chevrolet dealership.

[@cybertrophic]

If you have any smart connectivity to your car (such as remote start), it is possible to shut the car off remotely. Infiniti can be accessed remotely from another country, let alone from your local law enforcement, for example. Hackers worked out how to remotely control Jeep Cherokee computers remotely several years ago by hacking the smart infotainment remotely and then accessing the Engine and braking computers from there...
