So just ask yourself...if it was REALLY possible to remotely hack and control someone’s vehicle (without having prior access to it to modify the control system) - don’t you think we’d be reading about mysterious car crashes every day? From angry spouses to business partners looking to cash in on insurance policies to all manner of criminal activities, don’t you think there would be at least one incident per day? Week? Month? Yet here we’re suppose to toss Occams Razor out the window and believe this happened.

Anything can be rigged. There are enough technically smart people around that if this were possible on un-rigged stock vehicles, it would be frontpage news.

I guess it depends on what front page you read...
