can result in loss of vehicle control, resulting in a collision and personal injury. Chrysler Group

that may take their attention off the road. Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones,
computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices by the driver while the vehicle
is moving is dangerous and could lead to a serious collision. Texting while driving is also
dangerous and should never be done while the vehicle is moving.
if y

to devote your full attention to vehicle operation, pull off the road to a safe location and stop
your vehicle. Some States or Provinces prohibit the use of cellular telephones or texting while
