1a. Are you disabled or elderly or both?
You are not carrying a heap of military-grade equipment, nor are you carrying a weapon - let alone a heavy weapon - nor are you wearing power armour.

2a. This would be more annoying because the hacking skill doesnt work on vehicles like when recalling
Why not? You have to stow your weapon then clamber in. The current teleporting is worse than a small timer that actually represents something. Or do you, in real life, actually teleport into your car?
Lazer Fo Cused wrote:3. Exploiting - Thats is scouts throwing REs like grenades, or jihad jeeps, or swarms which can lock on behind cover and fire while not looking at the target and the missiles go around 3 corners because the tracking is broken and tracks to where you were and not where you are
Well, technically speaking the Swarm thing is a bad mechanism, not exploitation, and the JLAV thing is intentional, or else it would've been addressed (either removed or otherwise commented on.) And while RE tossing can be annoying, it's also immediately countered with situational awareness: as a Sentinel on my alt (er, well, this character) I can say that avoiding REs is actually fairly reasonable to ask of someone - it's usually just that the person misses the toss or activation sound, or simply blunders around a corner. The worst part of RE tossing is roof camping, but that is an entire different box of frogs.

Nothing stops you from jumping in, but you still have all of your equipment/weaponry floating about that is in the way of operating the vehicle.
Lazer Fo Cused wrote:2. I am not stowing a weapon, i sling it roung my back and jump in
2a. When i get into my car in RL i do not hold and wait for a small circle to fill up and the closest i can teleport is jumping into it
Yes, you are. Slinging the weapon over your back is not conducive to operating a vehicle: weaponry/equipment is relatively bulky and will interfere with your arms/legs when you attempt to use the controls. Quite simply, you need to take a moment to not have your stuff get in the way.
In real life, now you are mistaking in game mechanisms which replicate an action with mechanics which completely imitate real life. A simple, charging circle is much easier to code/implement than a full bevy of model motions. In other words, in game it is a simple change rather than implementing many complicated and unnecessary additions to achieve the same goal: a stopgap measure.
And again, you can jump into an open topped vehicle, but getting into a closed vehicle (even just a car) while holding several feet of metal and bulked out with military gear, you do not immediately get to operate the vehicle because they are almost certainly in the way and need to be stowed. Simply, your assertions are just wrong.

3a. Jihad is an exploit but also broken game mechanics, i cant put RE on friendly infantry so why can i do it on a vehicle?
3b. RE are being thrown like a grenade from an invisible scout and by the time it lands its ready to blow and unavoidable
Swarms are not completely broken, they operate pretty damn close to right when targeting ground vehicles.
REs on a vehicle are very different to REs on a person: placing REs on vehicles was introduced to allow people to booby trap or otherwose destroy them without specific light/heavy AV weaponry and to give REs more of a purpose than just heavy-busters.
