Tesla owners have been warned that criminals can remotely unlock and steal their cars after hackers exposed a security flaw in the smartphone app which opens the doors.
Model 3 and Model Y vehicles are at risk from a vulnerability in the technology, which is powered by Bluetooth, which allows thieves to unlock a Tesla from 25 metres away.
Teslas are only supposed to unlock if the owner’s mobile phone is within one metre of the vehicle, according to the carmaker.
