Wonder if you disabled cellular on these cars, take away its ability to call home, if the car would still be usable, or would it just brick itself?
Varies widely, sometimes you can call in and opt-out, boom done. It will naturally take the cellular features like hotspot, app stuff with it. It will be very make/model specific. You can do it on Toyota's by pulling a fuse if calling don't work and you only lose the microphone.
