This is great, but it's unfortunate that they didn't also include the right to disable any data collection. My car's data should be available to me and me alone, full stop. If I choose to share it with my mechanic or the manufacturer, that's my business. The manufacturer shouldn't have any access without an explicit opt-in from me, and refusing to opt-in should not affect the sale. I should also be able to control what data they can see if I choose to share it. The manufacturer has a legitimate concern about certain operational parameters if I'm asking them to perform a repair under warranty (did I redline the engine?), but they have absolutely no legitimate use, ever, for location data.
