CYBERSECURITY  
WARNING!  
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 informa-  
tion. This information allows systems and features in your  
vehicle to function properly.  
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, 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.  
Your vehicle may be equipped with certain security fea-  
tures 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 com-  
puter 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.  
As always, if you experience unusual vehicle behav-  
ior, take your vehicle to your nearest authorized  
dealer immediately.

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.
