My car is currently hacked! I've brought it to 2 different dealerships and they just blow me off. If my phone is on while in my car, it at some point will just not go, no matter how hard u press the gas. I've had my seats and mirrors move while driving. It downshifts superhard. But if someone else is in the vehicle, nothing happens. I've showed videos that the service ppl can't explain whatsoever. Also people seem to shine bright lights at my car for long periods of time and after that, my rpms go so high and stay that way even while braking. Also people seem to love to get on a riding lawn mower and just let it sit by my car running and then again my rpms go crazy. Someone please help me my next step is a lawyer and a lawsuit. There are too many incidents to record. And this all started a year ago when at a light on a highway waiting to make a left turn, when the light turned green for me to go, it died in the middle of the highway making a left turn. So I was dead in front of oncoming traffic and after 2 weeks of having my car they replaced a "throttle body" and I've been living in hell ever since. I don't even believe they replaced it, all they did was fuck my car up and I can't be exact but I believe at the time it had under 40,000 miles.
