- The Wired article was released this morning, detailing how two 'hackers' discovered and manipulated a vulnerability in some Uconnect systems allowing them to wirelessly take over the vehicle. Needless to say this ain't good and Chrysler released a patch that fixes this er, technicality.
We show you how to install this patch.
So your Uconnect might get hacked? Follow these instructions to update your system with the latest Chrysler Security Patch!
1. Write down your VIN. I use my insurance card since Progressive prints it right on the card.
2. You’ll need a USB flash drive (Chrysler recommends at least 4gb).
3. Get to a computer (mobile will not work well for downloading the patch onto a USB Stick).
4. Go to www.driveuconnect.com/software-update/
5. Follow the instructional tutorial on their site. In case their internal process is updated I’m not going to transcribe it here. The site is straightforward and step-by-step. When you complete their online process you’ll have a software update in the form of a .iso on your USB flash drive. Now you’re ready to update your vehicle’s Uconnect!
6. Get in the vehicle and close the doors.
7. Unplug any USB, SD Cards, Chargers, Phones, Etc from any ports.
8. Put the vehicle in ‘Run’ mode. Key starters turn to Run mode (this is the setting just before turning the engine over and starting). Push button starters simply press the button twice with your foot off the gas.
9. Insert the USB Flash Drive into a USB port.
10. If done correctly the system will automatically identify the software update and request confirmation to update the software. If everything looks OK, confirm the update!
11. Now the Uconnect will update. During this update its important to not touch any buttons, the brake, open the doors, roll the windows up or down - just sit there. Might take 15 minutes or so..
12. When the system finally boots up again, it should display the current system version (looks like 15.17.5). If this is the case - congrats you’ve updated your Uconnect!
13. Remove the USB stick.
14. Turn the vehicle OFF
15. Open the driver door and close it.
16. Wait 60 seconds.
17. Turn the vehicle ON and then OFF.
18. Open the driver door and close it again.
19. Wait 60 seconds.
20. Your vehicle is now fully updated and protected from the wireless hacking vulnerability!

why do you call this a hack. this is the way to update the uconnect. or does it adds anything extra? I went to site and I was already on the latest version. this is no hack
the hack is that hackers can hack your system until you do this update.
successful update...
I updated to a different radio in my 2014 dodge durango.. now only thing I see on the side in media, is bluetooth.. no sd usb or aux.. do you know why this is?
Listen gum chewer this is not a hack, it's just a standard update.
could I get the app contant on a 2014 ucconect Dodge dart please show me how?
Is this still available? Will it work for 2014 jeep cherokee? Thank u

I do all de steps but the USB port of my Dodge ram 1500 don't read the f#-#@ pen drive I bay tow of then
I need help please 😭
hey, I have the 8.4A...why don't I have the app icon?
Because you have the 8.4A. The 8.4AN has the app icon.
Will this still work now? I’m afraid my car might crash or what
What if I want to be able to use my jeep remotely.
+Tomas Gibbs You would have to have the Uconnect 8.4 A or the 8.4 AN with an active access subscription and you would be able to send commands to the vehicle from your smart phone
Can Jeep be updated in 14 years?
When unzip the files, I don't get the files swdl.iso there is a bunch of files that idk what to do. I try it with all the files my 2015 ram doesnt respond on my Ram.
make you when you unzip you just unzip it to the flash drive. if you try to unzip the iso you will get files that are uncompressed which is what the u connect reads, but it should only be in a .iso format.
I will try again because I think when i unzip it all the file come up but the .iso does not appear on my computer I will try again
I'm having the same issue. What did you do?
This is not a hack and noone can hear you or see the screen
the hack is that hackers can hack your system until you do this update. Yes, hackers can hear you through your microphone.
So, what if my usb port isn't working?
My files are not supported and I did everything correctly , this is also my second flash drive
Same. you figure your issue?

Where is the hack?
Simple Uconnect Hacking Tutorial Fix: Hackers HATE this!
What does this do? Just protect it? I want new features like Ndroid auto
It's just an update to patch the security issue. Since it's been 8 years since we originally posted this, I would bring your vehicle into your local dealer if you have concerns. Thanks!
This is not a hack!!
This is a hack because you're supposed to have the service department do it and this provides you the instructions on doing it yourself...you car people aren't able to figure that out? LoL
