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

ior, take your vehicle to your nearest authorized
dealer immediately. NOTE:

update to learn about available Uconnect software
updates.

personal mobile phones, USBs, CDs).
