Researchers discovered a vulnerability to remote attacks in VW cars, similar to the 2015 Jeep hack.
"Car security issues – and how manufacturers respond to them – were put on the forefront after researchers Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek famously remotely hacked a 2014 Jeep Cherokee to control the braking, steering and acceleration of the vehicle in 2015. Since then, the attack surface for many vehicles has only expanded as infotainment systems and other Wi-Fi-enabled capabilities have become increasingly popular in cars."
