You love your new car. Navigation, Bluetooth, satellite radio – its the best of everything on wheels. It’s also wide open for remote hacking. I’ve warned about this all year.

The issue is back in the news following a deliberate hacking and takeover of a new Jeep – here and here.

Wired.

No one warns like the automotive master, Eric Peters: Eric on the Jeep hack.

First they hacked the Google car. Now, it appears, they – “they” being hackers – could, in principle at least, take over half-a-million Jeeps (and other Fiat-Chrysler vehicles) equipped with in-car WiFi.

They’ve already done so in fact with one.

Chrysler says they have a fix and have issued a recall notice. Don’t drive a Jeep? Happy motoring.
