I want to see Ford turning off the plates when car payments are missed.

OMG, the endless stream of rabbit holes to jump into on this one......

Think Aston Martin or BMW beat them to it for James Bond.

Certainly someone could hack it and change the numbers and/or state

No thanks.

This has been around forever in California lol

I’m curious if that will end “Salvage” vehicles being resurrected or if the digital plate can be removed for the standard metal plates upon a Salvage situation? I ask because I own a “Salvage” Bronco and the Ford Warranty is voided.

So with the handful of electrical problems Ford has been having, this seemed like a good idea why?

Same people that make the backup cameras?

I don’t understand the obsession with needing to make absolutely everything digital.
