CYBERSECURITY
Your vehicle may be a connected
vehicle and may be equipped with both
wired and wireless networks. These
networks allow your vehicle to send and
receive information. This information
allows systems and features in your
vehicle to function properly.
Your vehicle may be equipped with
certain security features to reduce the
risk of unauthorized and unlawful
access to vehicle systems and wireless
communications. Vehicle software
technology continues to evolve over
time, and FCA US LLC, working with its
suppliers, evaluates and takes
appropriate steps as needed. Similar to
a computer or other devices, your
vehicle may require software updates to
improve the usability and performance
of your systems, or to reduce the
potential risk of unauthorized and
unlawful access to your vehicle
systems.
The risk of unauthorized and unlawful
access to your vehicle systems may still
exist, even if the most recent version of
vehicle software is installed.
Warning!
It is not possible to know or to predict
all of the possible outcomes if your
vehicle’s systems are breached. It may be
possible that vehicle systems, including
safety related systems, could be impaired
or a loss of vehicle control could occur that
may result in an accident involving serious
injury or death.
ONLY insert media (e.g., USB or SD
card) into your vehicle if it came from a
trusted source. Media of unknown origin
could possibly contain malicious software,
and if installed in your vehicle, it may
increase the possibility for vehicle systems
to be breached.
As always, if you experience unusual
vehicle behavior, take your vehicle to your
nearest authorized dealer immediately.
Note:
FCA US LLC or your dealer may
contact you directly regarding software
updates.
To help further improve vehicle
security and minimize the potential risk
of a security breach, vehicle owners
should:
–
Only connect and use trusted
media devices (e.g. personal mobile
phones or USBs).
Privacy of any wireless and wired
communications cannot be assured.
Third parties may unlawfully intercept
information and private
communications without your consent.
