AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)08/21 Report--
With the emergence and popularization of smart cars, smart cars such as new energy have become the choice of more and more consumers. However, because smart cars can be controlled through APP, a Tesla owner suddenly encountered a security vulnerability in the vehicle APP and inadvertently operated other people's vehicles.
According to a Tesla owner, in mid-and late August, when he was checking his Tesla APP, he suddenly found that his vehicle information was missing, but there were five other Tesla models. It is worth noting that these five Tesla vehicles are still far away in Europe, while the Tesla owner can also remotely control the vehicle through the mobile phone APP and record the certificate.
In response, the owner gave feedback to Tesla until Tesla repaired its status at 10 a.m. the next day, but was reluctant to feed back the results of the investigation to the owner. As a result, the owner doubts whether Tesla's situation will appear again in the future, even causing his own subsequent safety problems.
Tesla owners have such an idea because they worry that if their vehicles are in the same condition one day, they may be accidentally manipulated by a third party, which may undoubtedly affect their safety problems.
Because the owner's report on the Internet caused a lot of netizens debate, some netizens are more bold guess, if remote control of other vehicles caused serious accidents should be the manufacturer's responsibility or personal responsibility? According to previous media reports on Tesla, accidents occurred during normal use, which is also the result of associations among netizens.
In fact, in May this year Tesla also suffered an APP crash due to "certificate expiration", causing many Tesla owners to appear on the road. According to a number of Tesla owners, the Tesla APP used on their mobile phones suddenly suffered a large-scale downtime, resulting in the vehicle in addition to the non-intelligent steering wheel can operate, almost the vehicle system navigation positioning, dashboard vehicle information, lights and central control screen appear "shutdown", almost blind open, the situation is very critical.
Even a few years ago Tesla had been cracked by "hackers" and could be controlled remotely. In addition to simple unlocking and window opening, it could be controlled while driving, including remote braking during driving. For a high-speed vehicle, if the brake light is not lit and the door is unlocked, the vehicle suddenly stops, the degree of danger can be imagined. However, through Tesla's research and development in recent years, hacking has gradually been perfected.
However, the APP vulnerability that appeared in Tesla this time is not a "hacker" invasion, but it seems to be caused by its own security vulnerability from netizens, so there is no small doubt about Tesla's security problems.
Tesla, currently the world's highest-selling new energy vehicle, is also leading the way in smart cars, making its sales continue to rise. Data show that Tesla has ranked first in the global sales list of new energy vehicles with 179,100 vehicles in the first half of this year, three times the second place, with a market share of 19%. Among them, 45,800 vehicles accumulated in the first half of the Chinese market, which is also the first sales volume of new energy vehicles in China.
After more than one hundred years of development in the automobile era, fuel vehicles have gradually developed towards new energy vehicles and intelligent vehicles, which will also be the development trend of the future automobile era. But according to one netizen, intelligence is not the main function of cars. Therefore, in the current development direction of smart cars, car companies should pay more attention to giving consumers more safety protection, not always following intelligence.
