Dodge Charger: MULTIMEDIA / 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 (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 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 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 US LLC or an authorized 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 (US Residents) or www.driveuconnect.ca
(Canadian Residents) to learn about available Uconnect software updates.
- Only connect and use trusted media devices (e.g. personal mobile
phones, USBs, CDs).
