the point was that manufacture is forced to have auto update enabled in name of security compliance. so, this issue needs to be solved by compliance first

Well, my comment was from owner's side. An end-user corporation is the owner of a corporate device like car, so it can decide whether turning it on or off. I just commented that for any serious corporation auto-updates will be turned on, per compliance requirements applied to the corporation.
This is a hypothetical in this situation, car manufacturers are under no such obligation. Also, rules like this tend to get reversed once the true risk is realized- people dying that is. We do all kinds of things for very marginal improvements to security these days
