That is absolutely poor advice as once the Connected Drive account is linked with the car anybody with the password can access the car via the iOS/Android app. My last 3 years of my past gig was all around IoT (aka Internet of Things) security and this basically falls into that camp. The consideration is that this is one area in which hackers are actively targeting as their surface area along with the obvious financial services, retail and healthcare.
