Connected cars collect data on drivers’ locations, routes, speed, and driving habits, as well as information from their phones and infotainment systems. They may share it with manufacturers, service providers, and commercial third parties. A study by Northeastern University and Consumer Reports tested 21 vehicles from 19 brands and found that personal and location data was being sent to outside parties. The 2025 General Motors case also revealed that driving and location data was used in reports that could benefit insurance companies. Data access and control rights vary by country. The EU Data Act, in force since September 12, 2025, allows users to access and share data from connected products under certain conditions. The United States, by contrast, has no comprehensive federal law covering all aspects of consumer data privacy. The article recommends reviewing privacy settings and permissions, disabling unnecessary data sharing, requesting or deleting data, and unlinking phones and apps before selling a car.
