It make car illegal, doesn't it?
I don't speak about vendor's warranty, I'm speaking about road code.
As far as I know, many countries forbids meddling with breaks, lights, engine exhaust system and other systems related to road safety.
I understand, that infotaiment system is not the brakes, but still - many modern car allows to setup ABS and traction control modes via same interface, for example.
- ocdtrekkie 4y agoOn a lot of cars the infotainment system explicitly doesn't do that because of the security implications. Our 2021 has a lot of non-critical settings in the touchscreen display, and all of the road behavior settings are set on the screen behind the wheel and configured with the arrow keys on the wheel.
- archi42 4y agoDepends on the make. For my 2013 Volvo I can adjust some of the driving assistant configs (e.g. disable blind spot information) and switch the light to left-hand traffic. This won't explode the car, but might be enough control for some malware to cause an accident.
