I hope Tesla releases free software for all of the software in Tesla vehicles and thus frees Tesla car owners to protect themselves from precisely what you describe.
The only thing I think might play out differently: the proprietor won't be so forthcoming about why as you describe. The use of structurally abusive power (such as pulling people's purchased books from their eBook readers via DRM as was done with "1984") often happens with no explanation and some users are naive enough to not demand better.
That's the power of proprietary software and a big part of the practical reason why we should all value software freedom for its own sake, run free software systems, and champion software freedom to others.
