Some cars have that already and have had it since like 98 iirc.

Then what's the manufacturer's excuse for not having them on current models? It would prevent the "one and done" type of attacks, there's at least a chance that any setup gets caught on camera before the car is stolen later?

Ford still does have program timeout, like I said some cars have had it some haven't and I can't and moreover won't try to explain anyone else's feelings.

I understand. I'm upset at this but not trying to take it out on the messenger.
