Basically, the car stops running out there in the middle of the freeway.
And the reboot has to be done with car-manufacturer supplied test equipment.

Big deal. My friend nas a brand new Chevy Malibu Max. The CPU controlling the variable-ratio steering went out while he was driving it and he couldn't steer it. And I don't mean like when the power steering goes out and it's harder to steer. I mean no CPU: no steering. Luckily he was only going about 25 MPH and in a straight line.


Even scarier is that his car statistically triggered a recall.
