I think no one will buy a brand new 2009 vehicle or be buying from a dealer who thinks this is a bad idea to the point that they want no part in it.
I also will not be surprised if a black market situation emerges in which mechanics offer their services to disable these devices.
As for the ethical nature.... dont sign a contract if you cant uphold your end of the bargin.

as can your wife and you yourself.
Thats called marriage and there's nothing illegal bout it so long as you only have one marriage at any time 
And only if you get found out to have multiple marriage partners as is the case in a certain part of the US.

As opposed to Repo men hijacking your vehicle at 2 am in the morning right?
If a repoman is taking your vehicle at 2am without your permission, that's grand theft auto.
So.. it must not be your vehicle.
Something tells me you misunderstood my statement. I was pointing out that the car company shutting your vehicle down remotely due to late payments is no different than repo men taking your vehicle now, except that your car now turns into a 2000 lbs roadblock in your driveway meaning the OP's wanting to raise a red flag is truly no different than what occurs now.
Id honestly welcome the shut down over the Repo man. Repo man can lead to some nasty situations with a gun, not to mention the repo man inadvertantly impounds everything in the car at the time, which would be worse than losing the car (IE office documents, etc), with this you still atleast have access to your property within the car.

Anything that man makes can ultimately be defeated. If the makers of this device are smart though they will have made it so it causes permanant shutdown of the car if the device is tampered with in a significant way.
