        I mean given that all of the manufacturers failed the test what choice do you have? Old cars aren’t going to last forever.

          There is no option currently, and no political interest to change it. Maybe this report will change that… Let’s see

      My car is from last decade, but I was able to remove its OnStar equivalent phone/internet connection by unplugging a box. I just had to do a little research and find out that the cellular device was in a little box you can disconnect, and where that was located.

      As far as I know that has it disconnected from any data-uploading ability. Not sure what data it might be gathering but it can’t send it anywhere.
