If I'm able to lock/unlock and start my truck from the app, why can't I disable it with a virtual "kill switch"? I can say that if it had a feature that required a PIN, or something similar, to drive my vehicle away, I would most definitely subscribe to Uconnect for that one addition. I don't know about you all, but that's literally ALL I want/need from this app. I know that anyone who puts $10000-$100000 or more into their vehicle, they would be more than willing to pay $15 a month to keep that investment from being taken. These vehicles are just too easily stolen. You can literally buy an item from Amazon to grab my key's signal and reproduce it to take my vehicle. So if my vehicle is stolen tomorrow, my insurance will cover the truck itself, but the other $15000 is mine to eat. I had my previous build taken from the dealership's service bay, so I'm all too aware of what your insurance company will take care of. I would think that if a company like Z automotive can figure out how to do this, surely there is something that the producers of the vehicle can do that is similar. Is this a bad idea?
