Episode Details

Major automakers are threatening to halt car sales in California starting July 1 unless the state backs off new tech rules designed to protect domestic violence survivors. The law demands in-car systems that let drivers instantly disable remote access and location tracking — a feat automakers say is technically impossible by the deadline. While they’ve nailed the online components, the in-car tech requires massive engineering and testing across decades of models. A pending state bill could give them more time, but if it doesn’t pass before next week, carmakers warn they’ll stop selling new and used vehicles in the state — leaving Governor Newsom silent on the looming crisis.
