New Method To Steal Your Hellcat ScatPack TrackHawk and Ram 

Add it to the list of ways to steal a dodge! lol

You would think Dodge would release an update or something to fix this obvious exploit. Me and my wife are looking at buying her a Challenger, and me a Jail Break Charger, but with these exploits I’m not so sure. We live in a small community, but we like to travel. Man I wish they would fix this stuff. Thanks for keeping people informed, great content.

It really sucks, Dodge should be held accountable

There are both obd2 port locks and usb port locks available. These are made by a variety of different manufacturers, thusly many different types of release mechanisms (keys). The theives would have to carry hundreds of unlocking devices to defeat these locks. Along with kill switches and tracking devices, it might help slow down a theif somewhat.

Owning one of those cars should be about enjoyment, but it has turned into a nightmare.

I no longer take my Challenger anywhere where if I have to go inside a building and not physically be in it or can’t see it when I’m in a building. I just take it on joyrides now and use my daily instead.

Just as fast as there is a cure, the crooks are finding a way around it. They consider it a job.

My friend just got his truck stolen at 3am. He gets a txt from the truck saying it’s stolen (lol) then after he reports it to the police, the police shut his tracking ability off so he doesn’t go looking for it…. He said they jacked it in under 2 minutes

It's a shame, because this could legitimately save an owner hundreds of dollars if they lose their fob and need to program a new one.

New mission for us! Thanks as always for being on top of all this mess. I will begin thinking tomorrow...

Your a straight OG and probably one of the BEST. I’ll leave it at that 🙏🏽🤙🏽💯

Something that's definitely good to know about since no one has ever heard of or seen this device, this device can pose a big threat to all kinds of automobiles.

Air tags are undefeated. That’s how houses randomly get ventilated. Recovery missions.

i program keys for fun on the side, its easy to steal any car , IF somone can get into it , just make sure doors are locked and should be fine.... camera system... or a garage is a must with a hellcat..... theres always a way to steal a car either way doesnt matter about this gadget i have 3 different scanners ... if theyre smart enough they can steal it

He knows too much. Gotta watch this guy lol.

Simple and Easy fix. If you don't want your car stolen, Remove the center console section. Its held together with 8mm bolts and #2 philips screws. Some trim removal tools will also come in handy. Disconnect the USB cables. Reroute the cables to a place you only know and make sure to make it difficult for crooks to find. Put everything back together. Also Do the Same with the dash OBD port. It's located under the steering wheel area and relocate it with a tazer relocation kit. No need to waste time and money on stuff thats not going to stop a crook from stealing your car when all you have to do is relocate the connectors they need to program a key. Furthermore, You only need the center console usb plugs if you used apple carplay or the android version. leave the cable disconnected if you don't use either. Otherwise relocate the cable.

Whenever a vehicle enters the hood hall of fame, it's time to ditch it.

Just saw a news clip about some dude getting his Hellcat stolen in KC. Was curious why they kept getting stolen and found your video, thx for info. Dodge should partially take some of the responsibility for the security of the vehicles they sell.

Get the RF lockout! No keys can be programmed, period ...unless they bring a new/used PCM and swap it out ...that takes much more time and doesn't always work. Layer it up with a hidden kill switch, pedal or wheel lock, and a neutral strap steel box cover. Hide a couple airtags (and remove the speakers) for a nice cherry on top. Thieves want easy. Make them move on to the next target.

You could Also Just remove the Battery or Wheels…Thanks for the advice 👍👍👍

If you’re not running a switch on your fuel pump or ignition you are giving it to them this is nothing new in car theft

Psychiatrist: "What brings you in today?" You: "Oh, I'm a Mopar owner."

If someone wants your car, with or without the OBD2 and USB locking devices, they'll get it or make your life hell with repairs for the next few months. I have 3 hidden kill switches on my SRT 392 Durango and they need to be all turned on or it blows the starter fuse when you try to start the car. I came out of work one day to someone looking into my car but they ran off. A week later they came back only minutes after I went inside the office and attempted to steal it. Our cameras show he was in my car for over 30 minutes and left empty handed. I found out when I came out to my Durango with the back small corner window punched out and all my doors unlocked, to see all my seats, headliner, touchscreen, steering wheel, wiring, and dash carved up with a razorblade and the interior smelling like someone pissed all over. They found 1 of the kill switches but not the other 2. When the cops arrived they said that's extremely common when thieves can't get away with the car that they will destroy it instead. My car spent 9 months in the shop getting fixed (whole different story ...) before the insurance company (State Farm) finally decided to consider it totaled. It would have been easier to let them steal it.

I think there should be a recall for a uconnect update to patch that. Theft should be considered a safety issue!

Kia boys taking notes like🧐😂

Hello TK. Wow a new way to steal a Charger Challenger Hellcat and TrackHawck. Great looking out TK. And I know that you're going to talk with all of the police that you've worked with before.

If you own one of these vehicles you are going to have to start removing your steering wheel and battery after parking lol

Am I the only Scat Pack owner that had the dealership lock the RF hub? The good thing is, the car won't be stolen. The bad thing is, if you lose ALL your fobs, you're done. I just had my second Scat RF hub locked last week. I had them make me three fobs, and then lock it. Once locked it cannot ever be unlocked. I'm 43 and never lost a fob in my life. It's worth doing. Heritage Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Harrisburg, PA did mine. If curious ask for Gabriel.

A Viper System may be the answer...I know it is not cheap...but man it seems to work...Even Chrysler could not break into my car...and they did try for a few hours at the Dream Cruise last year...when they were dong free upgrades to the Security systems ...so people if you are going to get your once in a lifetime car...protect it with the best stuff out there. And a club of sorts on top ... just makes it that much less inviting...even if you touch my car it goes off...PAIN IN THE BUTT sometimes!

Or just use an independant transmission lock. Hyundais are even easier to steal. Any auto lock-picking tool under $50 can steal them, and good lockpickers can lockpick and start it in a minute or less. Hyundais are the most stolen car here in Italy as they lack immobilizers. I had a transmission lock that prevents the gear lever from shifting out of "P" and required a secondary key to unlock. It's not perfect but does make a car harder to steal with more steps and most thieves will skip to the next car.

I could really use that app im always buying cars from auction and im over here spending money on locksmiths 😐

A way you can make it hard is by installing a switch to kill the usb port as well I personally would make it so it a raspberry pie hidden in the car that looks for a text or a phone to turn on the usb parts

Main reason I sold my TRX. An IGLA is good, but they’ll also get mad when they can’t steal it and pretty much vandalize your car. So not even worth owning these cars. Amazing as they are its just not worth it until the fad of stealing them dies off.

What’s that tool called and how can I protect my mopar from getting stolen

Exactly why I completely removed my odb2 port. Cut the wires off flush with the firewall.

What about if the car has had the RF lockdown procedure done by Dodge? That is supposed to make it so no more keys can ever be made and also the keys programmed cannot be deleted

by a steel club, cut your wheel all the way to the left or right, and you'll beat most car thieves. I don't care what no one says aint nobody walking around with power tools trying to steal rides😂

What next, bolt the car to the ground?

Thx for the heads up TK you’re a real one!! Props to you!!

Rewire at the fusebox so the usb port circuit is only powered in run mode.

Amazing, you're right, it sucks... They always seem to be 1 step ahead!!!!!

Can you take the fuse out supplying the USB ports? Or own a clunker with an old 1 like me.

good advice, run disconnect for all USB-TYPE C port within car...

So, it's making a spare key. This can be prevented with the fix from Dodge that locks the system from making new keys.

Have you checked into Pandora car security systems ?

Why can’t we go back to old keys? Yes they can hot wire but not everyone knows how to hot wire.

Does the Z Automotive Tazer PIN Code protect against this? Even if a thief cuts or disconnects the Tazer from the vehicle, the Tazer has programmed the vehicle Gas Pedal to be disabled (I'm not sure if it's also locked the ABS brakes on all 4 wheels too). Could a thief using this "new method" in this video using the USB dongle, Uconnect, and hacking app hidden in the Solitaire game, be able to override and re-enable the Gas Pedal (and release the ABS brakes?) which were programmed into the vehicle by the Tazer? Even if the Solitaire hacking app isn't programmed currently to release the gas pedal (and release the ABS brakes?), could it theoretically be programmed to do that?

YOU ARE AMAZING!!!! THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP AND INFORMATION YOU GIVE!!!!!

will this work on Maserati or Alfa Romeo or Fiat? I don't understand, is this new key now registered into the car system? I know FCJDAM 2018+ have SGM security gateway module that blocks you from even erasing any diagnostic codes. How is this by passing the gateway, if thats what it is doing? Ive seen on the new all kinds of lies how you can program a key, but its a strict lie. After this tool starts a car, is the key count +1? Can you just start the car afterwords with same key no usb tool if you shut the car off? Now repeater i understand, because nothing to bypass

That’s just crazy. We need to come up with better security and robust.

Hopefully my GT is safe, even though it may be confused for a Scat Pack at first glance.

I didn't know there was such a vulnerability with Dodge/Chrysler. I've been looking to get a challenger RT 6spd but after this video I don't think I should. Beside the ease of it getting stolen, seems like it will be targeted simply because it's out there that it's easy to steal. I imagine the insurance rates for these cars must be even higher than comparable cars if that's the case.

Love your hat...been I Patriots fan for years (50 years) and I was born and raised in Rhode Island but now I live in Miami.

I’m surprised that it’s taken this long to get to this point.

I have never been happier to have a 2016 Challenger rather than 2017 when they introduced Apple and Android auto. I am still going to take more steps to preventing theft though, just bought 3rd party GPS, and "THE CLUB", along with the Faraday FOB holder! Thanks for all the info, yikes!!!

It is easy to stop them. If you don't know my disarm code the car will lock down. Brakes locked at and module gas pedal disabled horn blowing even if you copy the key fob. If you find the system and unplug it still stays locked. It can be hidden in lots of places.

Androids can be an absolute powerful asset in this tech society

The best and least cost deterrent is don't buy a Dodge, LOL.

What is that thing called

Do you know how useful this would’ve been !! About a month ago when I lost my keys if I had this I could make so much money programming keys for people 😡

You kno what I’m bout to selling my wide body hellcat charger and challenger and by a Toyota this shh getting outta hand

Mine got stolen 2 weeks ago.... Chrysler dealership said system is irrepairable... workhard for my charger 2013 now.. Its salvage car. hopefully my insurance give me good deal 2013 RT with 40k mileage... those thieves whew! Karma is real!

How about just popping out a few relays , Starter and a couple more ?

My Scat Pack just got stolen. I wished I would have paid more attention to these videos.

The first thing I do when I buy this car is removed those ports until I can get all of my security set up below

Can you lock 🔐 out the RFH module . Only accepts 2 program keys …

If the RF module lockout prevents even the dealership from making new key fobs, I doubt this new hack makes any difference... but I could be wrong🤔

Late to this video but this is exactly why anyone with a Challenger/Charger or just any Mopar really needs to invest in a Z automotive Tazer, it locks your car down from shit like this and makes writing keys impossible, especially if you hardwire the tazer into a new OBD2 port that you can hide deep in the under padding of the car. Tons of other security settings you can utilize to like having the gas pedal completely disabled until you enter a pin when the vehicle starts and failure to do so raises the alarm, or having all 4 breaks locked until pin is entered etc. Z automotive Tazer, not a sponsor but that thing is truly the device to have for security.

I wish they still made a regular key for your car.

“Food stamp android phone” 😂 hilarious

How much extra is your insurance because you have a commonly stolen car

Keep your car in a garage when not in use & don't let it out of your sight when it is

I’d relocate the ECU to somewhere that’s easy to unplug when you leave your car, like the aftermarket radios from the 1980s. Thief would have to have the exact right ECU with him, even before programming to the vehicle.

Hidden GPS and a kill switch will do it.Also you can take a fuse or relay out of the fuse box at night while its parked.

That’s crazy TK! Thanks for this!

There is an update available from dodge that locks the keys to the RFH for SRT vehicles. Unable to then program a new key.

they tried to get mine 2 months ago. had a kill switch & air tags in it. they put in in neutral & pushed it a mile away to work on it in seclusion. they couldn't make a new key or start it so they got angry & broke all my windows, pulled all my fuses & scratched it up. I located it 6hrs later using the dodge app. the recall I did to marry my key/ starter system to the car was a priceless upgrade. no new keys can be made. even from dodge.

I don't see why this would not affect all Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, and Ram vehicles. OR does it?!

Always here to support your channel 🤗❤️

Where can I buy it?

lol, new bmws are dealership only, no 3rd party. toyota and lexus have rolling codes, i cant comprehend how this could possibly do that. Scotty killmer says taking a relay out of the car, whats the chance a robbers will have the relay to plug in?

i'm willing to bet majority of thieves today won't steal it if it's a Stick Shift modded into a Hellcat lol gives me another reason to learn a Manual 🤣

Just curious, I've heard a lot about the 2019 and newer security updates/patches - I'm assuming this works on everything up to 2023(?). Can you confirm my assumptions or are the newer cars protected from this trick?

So I’m planning on getting a killswitch it would help me from not getting the car stolen?

What is the device called?

What’s the app

i need help programming my new key can you suggest the app i dont want to order an expensive one

I didn’t even think of it till just now, but I’m pretty sure I programmed the spare key for my truck while the actual key for it was sitting on our counter, now I got a different reader, and I got a different app, that I got it Originally used to program the back up camera for the truck whenever I added it and programmed the heated steering wheel and heated seats whenever I added them as well, now that I think about it I’m pretty sure I just put the vehicle in accessory, which you can do by just poking the button

That's why a had dodge lock my module for free. No key can be made. If I lose my FOBs, I'll have to pay to replace the module under/behind the dash, but at least criminals can't code a key to it.

Just wait till everyone has electric vehicles it’s going to get worse

is this the same case for the chrysler 300?

What about the usb ports on the rear center console can they use that too ?

And wat is this tool called i want to try this one now

What is the software called so I can make a bug for it not to work no more.

Where do i get a food stamp phone??

How would getting the neutral strap cover help with this?

They need to put retina start in these things! Look in the rearview mirror and boom it starts 🙂

Super glue in the USB ports 😂. I don't use them anyway.

Do you know if the z automotive tazer works against this ? Aka their pin activated pedal disabler ?

Question? I have my keys all locked down. . . I wonder if that still works?
