In response to a conspiracy video Michael Bagby put up I dug up this cool paper on remote hacking your vehicles electronic control units (ECUs) and potentially doing bad things (like locking your front left brake while you are going highway speeds). One of the cool things in it they posit that such a remote attach could come from a long distance telematics service (onstar), a bluetooth connection from a nearby vehicle, or (and this is the really cool part) creating a music CD that has malicious code in it. static.usenix.org/events/sec11/tech/full_papers/Checkoway.pdf
