One woman's Tesla was remotely controlled by an abusive ex-partner

An abusive ex-partner in Sydney remotely controlled his former partner's Tesla using the car's app, manipulating its speed, temperature, and lock settings to harass her over several days in November 2025. Enrico Pucci gained access by adding a "parental control" profile to the vehicle without the owner's consent, causing her significant fear and safety concerns while driving. He was convicted of 30 domestic violence-related charges and sentenced to two years and three months in prison.
