Could it be the update was to patch a safety recall issue and so without the update, the car isn't considered safe to drive?
They need to have a solution in place other than brick your vehicle. Even if it only allows your nav to go to the nearest dealership or some shit. Will it be ignored? Yup, but at least I can get to my job. Or to my house where I can, ya know... Update.
Imagine being in the middle of a desert when this happens.
Don't care. If I buy a car and your software makes the decision to disable it, fuck you forever and you'll never see another nickel from me. If you sold me a car that isn't safe to drive in the first place, fuck you forever and you'll never see another nickel from me.
................ Anything that involves safety shouldn't be done remote
