You could do all sorts of nasty things depending on the car. With a gasoline car, you could melt the engine if the fuel maps are accessible via OTA.

You can probably melt the battery in Tesla. Batteries are heated, right? Add stress to batter, turn heaters on. Watch battery melt and/or explode. You can already do similar attack on laptops.
