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 unau-
thorized and unlawful access to vehicle systems and wireless communications.Vehicle soft-
ware technology continues to evolve over time and FCA US LLC, working with its suppli-
ers, 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 perfor-
mance of your systems or to reduce the potential risk of unauthorized and unlawful ac-
cess 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 (such as Uconnect software) is installed.
•
It is not possible to know or to predict all of the possible outcomes if your vehi-
cle' 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, SD card, or CD) 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 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:
•
Routinely check www.driveuconnect.com/software-update to learn about available
Uconnect software updates.
•
Only connect and use trusted media devices (e.g. personal mobile phones, USBs,
CDs).
Privacy of any wireless and wired communications cannot be assured. Third parties may
unlawfully intercept information and private communications without your consent. For
further information, refer to "Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD II) Cybersecurity" in
your Owner' s Manual.
