The voluntary safety recall will update the software in the UConnect, infotainment system, to ?help prevent? hackers from gaining access to the vehicles transmission, brake system, radio, ac, and even steering wheel while the driver has no clue what's going on. The hack that happened earlier this week was an event where two hackers were able to break into the UConnect system over the Internet of a vehicle and cause it to veer off the road. ?Launching a recall is the right step to protect Fiat Chrysler's customers and it sets an important precedent for how NHTSA and the industry will respond to cyber security vulnerabilities,? NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind said in a statement.
