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 secu-
rity features to reduce the risk of unauthorized
and unlawful access to vehicle systems and wire-
less communications. Vehicle software technol-
ogy 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 re-
quire software updates to improve the usability
and performance 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.
WARNING!
• It is not possible to know or to predict all of
the possible outcomes if your vehicle’s sys-
tems 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 ve-
hicle 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:
–
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 communica-
tions cannot be assured. Third parties may un-
lawfully intercept information and private com-
munications without your consent. For further
information, refer to “Data Collection & Privacy”
in “Uconnect + SiriusXM Guardian” in your
Uconnect Owner's Manual Supplement and
“Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD II) Cyberse-
curity” in “Getting To Know Y our Instrument
Panel” in your Owner’ s Manual.
