“Ford Motor Co. has filed for a patent on technology that could remotely 
shut down your radio or air conditioning, lock you out of your vehicle, 
or prompt it to ceaselessly beep if you miss car payments. Ford said it 
has no plans to use the technology, contained in just one of the many 
patents filed by the auto-making giant.”

Uh, that might not go well for Ford, based on the movie “Repo Men”.
