Surely the car manufacturers must share some responsibility here? It's not like they weren't forewarned about the security issues with keyless systems by academic security research.
- gambiting 3y agoIn the UK basically what happened was that Range Rovers became literally uninsurable in London, so I guess it started finally hurting their bottom line and they had to do something about it - JLR announced a program for free security improvements for owners(including replacing the entire keyless system for a more modern one) as well as their own insurance offering so that owners could actually continue driving the cars they bought. So as always, car manufacturers are willing to do something about it if it starts hurting them financially. I'm surprised the same thing isn't happening here - how are people on Toronto getting their cars insured if theft is so rampant?
