What happens when your Smart Car becomes deaf and blind
While checking my Home Assistant status, oh “horror”, I see that my “VolvoCar” requires reconfiguration.
So I reconfigure and result is a FAIL.
Next I go to the VolvoCar app and signin as usual. Result is also a FAIL.
So final step was to call the Volvo-On-Call service and they acknowledge a server failure:
“When do you expect service to be back up?”
“Tomorrow”
“Do you have a backup system in the meantime?”
“No”
“Have you been hacked?”
“We don’t know”
All in all this is not a great confidence inspiring performance….
