Dodge Warning

[PhulesAu]

My nephew had his Hellcat stolen Friday night, a type of keyboard was used to bypass the factory alarm system. Please make sure you have a back up anti theft device on your Expensive vehicles.

One trouble with these new electronics, hackers.

 

[Southpaw]

Did he have the update from awhile back performed that locked down the RF Hub?

 

[PhulesAu]

Unknown, but it's kinda too late..

Sadly, thefts of Hellcats is not uncommon.

Hopefully the jackasses get what's coming.

I hate a damn thief... I hope they catch the bastard.

It's the 21st century. Why don't we have these yet?

its not a new problem, just an evolution of a common problem, lockpickers and pickpockets no matter the era will always exsist.

I was thinking the same thing, probably a pre-2019 model.

Yeah, I was just curious if it happened after the update that was suppose to fix it.

 

[Txhighlander]

I would be curious as well.

Wire a switch in series with the fuel pump. Make the switch easy to use, and hard to find.

I am going to do that to my RT when I get the mods done.

I once read that one third of all Farraris get stolen at some point.

I wonder what portion of the theives end up in the trunk of a caddy.

Here is a little $170 device called Flipper Zero. Gizmos like that are why I still use my key to open door in parking lots, although some new cars don't even have that feature.

Anybody remember the ‘80s GM vehicles with the key cylinder on the front fender? Used the same key as the door locks and it was GMs answer vehicle security. I mostly remember them on the Caddys, particularly the Eldorado & Seville. My Toronado had one, but it was next to the filler neck behind the rear license plate

I have a HackRF One, can do the same type of stuff with it. Lots of fun. There's a lot of information flying around the air too that is ostensibly pretty benign, but could be messed with too. Electric smart meters, tire pressure sensors, smart home devices, baby monitors, cameras, you name it.

I remember it, seem to remember it didn't work very well either.
