Second-hand connected car data drama could be a GDPR minefield

What about the manufacturers' rights to the data?

Obviously a previous owner seeing the current owner's data is a potential GDPR breach, but I was wondering what the manufacturers' position is? Do they need to permission from the current owner of a vehicle to collect their data in the first place?

If I buy a secondhand car, how does the manufacturer know the owner of the car has changed (and that they need to stop gathering data until they have permission from me) and how would I know that the car was connected and sending data to the manufacturer?
