You're approaching it in the wrong way. You don't need to stop the Data Collection just the phone home. Find the antenna and Faraday Cage it.
Yeah, some aluminum foil on the inside of those shark fin antennas will probably stop all communication. Just have to use your phone for radio & navigation, which isn’t a big deal on CarPlay or whatever the androids use.
If you use foil, it'd be best to connect it to ground. The metal shell of a car is usually connected to the ground terminal of the battery.
