pin is cool until someone figures out what it is.
or even someone you know but don't want them driving your truck.

Question: If your Tesla is stolen with your phone in the car, how do you remotely deactivate the vehicle? Do you call Tesla?

Someone can tape all the cameras, flatbed it somewhere where there is no reception, and/or strip it for parts. But there are better cars to do that with I would imagine.
I would not recommend this to a potential thief, unless he doesn't mind being caught.

Competent thieves can just tow it away.

they loaded the truck and then extorted 300 bucks for you to get it back, in the SAME PARKING LOT??? I would have called the cops. Or got arrested for stealing that tow truck.

I have two phones.
So you can remotely deactivate your Tesla with the app?

I have multiple phones and key cards and rings and such. But if the vehicle is stolen, how do I disable it?

I think you have to get Tesla to do that.
In the Tesla app under 'Security and Drviers' you can turn on/adjust 'Speed Limit Mode' ... eg slow down the car chase ;)

That's going to be a very slow chase at 5 mph!

why put up a quote but don't have anything to say about it.
don't do that now it's just a duplicate statement that's out of place.
why? is it that hard to have some of your own words.

They had two posts. My logical guess is that they probably didn't realize they could edit the first one after accidentally hitting 'post reply' and posting their comments in the second one.
