Reports indicate that the cars infotainment system will be overridden with a whole of screen advertisement for Mopar’s extended warranty services. These ads require manual dismissal before users can resume normal system operation, such as checking GPS navigation or adjusting media settings. Initially affected vehicles appeared to be Jeeps, however reports in March state that Dodge is also effected.
