FTC needs to force auto manufacturers to allow the vehicle OWNER to disable data collection at the very least. If it were up to me it would allow owners to disable the sim card and OTA completely. I personally don't know anyone who uses the in car gps over google/apple maps anyway.
Thank you for specifying that the collection of data is the problem, not just how it's handled once collected.
Unfortunately, disabling the SIM or wireless module in the car isn't enough, since collected data could still be downloaded at a shop during warranty repair, or smog check, or (if you're unlucky) post-accident inspection, or by a mileage-tracking device from an insurance company.
Exactly! We need HIPPA style laws covering all personal data.
I'm not sure if HIPAA requires medical providers to delete your data, let's make certain to include that. It needs to act transitively. If you request deletion, the data must be gone from everyone they passed it on to, and so on. If they send it abroad and cannot enforce the deletion, let's have some million-dollar fines per instance.

And this is why the newer GM cars don't support android auto / carplay
