Devices like this, mention "safe" on the box, the BT code is 1234 , there is no safety.
We love to use them with "Scan My Tesla" or "TM-Spy" apps, so far, so great.
Those apps/device interface CAN3 bus, (Powertrain) a malicious hacker could easily inject pedal signals !
Imagine a script piece like this:
1 look for OBDII BT devices
2 attempt to connect
3 determine if it's a Tesla
4 inject powertrain commands.
The pedals, and the motor, does speak CAN after all..
Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) - the one that controls Drive/reverse/neutral/parking brake.... does also speak CAN
One could probably command a parked car.
So it may be dangerous to have those modules in...
