    Take your car into a dealer and ask them if the modem is connected. Frame is as you think it’s malfunctioning and they’ll look to see.

      I mean, they could disconnect it for you, but there’s still no way to know if it’s been transmitting data you don’t want it to in the meantime

        If they don’t know that you want it disconnected or never wanted it connected in the first place they’re likely to just tell you if it’s active or that it’s not at the request of the owner and then ask if you want it connected. If you play dumb and non-accusatory. That’s all I’m saying.
