Now if your car has onstar, then I guess you should be concerned about them listening in your car but other than that, you're ok. Just remember that the mileage does get stored in the PCM/ECM.

Maybe the requirement mandate started in 2010, but some modelslike Corvette and whatever the big Buick model have them since 2000. Thanx for a definitive response.
