How Hackable Is Your Car? Consult This Handy Chart

This is from August of 2014. I haven't found a more recent list. It's kind of funny that the news media is just now latching onto this story.

Miller and Valasek’s findings represented in a single chart. A plus sign represents “more hackable,” a minus sign “less hackable.” Credit: Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek

but they are operated by switches inside the cab. No keyless entry, so I'm thinking it's safe.
