Recently, an incident involving a Mercedes-Benz vehicle being remotely shutdown and hijacked by its previous owner while on the highway has ignited widespread debate among netizens. Concerns have arisen regarding the potential safety hazards if a used car's previous owner retains the digital key and retains remote control capabilities post-sale. However, media tests have confirmed that the official Mercedes-Benz digital key does not possess the ability to remotely shutdown the vehicle, thereby negating this particular security risk. It has been revealed that the Mercedes-Benz in question was actually shutdown due to a remotely controlled device installed by the previous owner. This incident serves as a reminder for used car buyers to be vigilant against illegal modifications and emphasizes the importance of purchasing vehicles through reputable and formal channels.
