Fiat Chrysler announced Friday that it is issuing a recall for 7,810 SUVs to patch a security hole in the vehicles radio systems that allowed them to be hacked via the web.
Cybersecurity researchers revealed that they could use the Internet to tamper with the SUVs engine as it drove, sparking concerns about the potential dangers of Internet-connected vehicles, according to Reuters.
The SUVs impacted by the recall are 2015 Jeep Renegades equipped with 6.5-inch touchscreen radios.
This announcement comes a little over a month after FCA recalled about 1.4 million vehicles in the U.S. for a software update.
Over half of the pertinent vehicles are still at dealerships and will be patched before they are sold, according to Mashable. The remainder of the vehicles can be patched by downloading a software update to a Flash Drive and installing it or bringing it to a dealership. FCA will also allegedly be sending out Flash Drive with the patch.
FCA found the error itself, and as such is unaware of any injuries, relevant to the public, related to the potential hacking.
