This assumes there’s a user accessible option to disable it.

I assumed it’s not a option, so I took the suggestion to mean “physically disable” the device. Modern cars have a number of integrated computers and they rarely serve individual purposes, but there’s a good chance there’s an external antenna near/in a window. Granted, I don’t have any vehicles with cell service, so I could be wrong. I do own a drill though

Just wrap your car in tinfoil. Bonus is that it stops the government from reading you mind while inside.
