Fiat Chrysler Recalls 1.4 Million Cars After Jeep Hack by baloney: 4:43pm On Jul 25, 2015
Fiat Chrysler has issued a safety recall affecting
1.4m vehicles in the US, after security
researchers showed that one of its cars could be
hacked.
On Tuesday, tech magazine Wired reported that
hackers had taken control of a Jeep Cherokee via
its internet-connected entertainment system.
Chrysler said it was issuing a voluntary recall to
update the software in affected vehicles.
The company added that hacking its vehicles was
a "criminal action".
Security researchers Charlie Miller and Chris
Valasek demonstrated that it was possible for
hackers to control a Jeep Cherokee remotely,
using the car's entertainment system which
connected to the mobile data network.
The two security researchers have spent years
investigating car control systems and developing
ways to subvert them. The pair are due to reveal
more information about their work at the Def Con
hacker conference next month.
Shortly after the recall was announced, Mr Miller
tweeted: "I wonder what is cheaper, designing
secure cars or doing recalls?"
Fiat Chrysler said exploiting the flaw "required
unique and extensive technical knowledge,
prolonged physical access to a subject vehicle
and extended periods of time to write code" and
added manipulating its software "constitutes
criminal action".
Affected vehicles
2013-2015 MY Dodge Viper specialty vehicles
2013-2015 Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500
pickups
2013-2015 Ram 3500, 4500, 5500 Chassis

The company said it was "unaware of any injuries
related to software exploitation".
