My 2025 ram has never done this… not saying it won’t ever but… we’ve heard the same stories about all the manufacturers.

2024 Ford, you can disable all the remote connectivity in the head unit. If you don’t trust that disable it in firmware with an ODB cable and some pirated software.

I mean, it works until it doesn’t. I’m trying to imagine sitting on a six-figure car note, trying to DIY a solution for the annoying pop-up you can’t manually disable, and accidentally bricking your car.

Seems pretty stupid to drop six-figures on a utility vehicle
Remote connectivity can be disabled in the head unit using the normal interfaces. If you aren’t comfortable modifying your vehicle you don’t have to.
If you want to go the extra mile. Deactivate the radios in firmware.
