| Description of the problem | The car sent me an email and it is not my car. This has happened since it was new. Isn't this a severe security problem for the real owner? No one has ever responded at hyudai. I have made contact on several occasions over the years. I guess they don't care. It seems that the automotive industry has no concerns with respect to privacy. I hope my next new car has better control over this type of information. I wonder if anyone in government cares? |
