> 3. Some cars, primarily luxury, will force slow you down to 15mph, honk horns, and go into limp mode.

I'm surprised some company hasn't sold a "gun" to law enforcement that will disable cars remotely this way.

TPMS data is "questionable" enough already that no OEM is using it's sudden disappearance as a key do to anything drastic.

I can see them doing it if the data goes from good to bad and then the bad persists over a key off cycle though.

  • Its not disappearance.

    Look at what happens if you spoof and spam a 0kPa event on various cars.

    Some show a tpms warning. Some luxury ones do limp mode.
