Harman International Industries Inc. audio systems used in Audi and Bentley vehicles don’t have the same vulnerabilities as the technology in the Jeep Cherokee that was hacked remotely, the U.S. Department of Transportation said Saturday.
The regulator closed a months-long investigation into Harman’s radios supplied to automakers other than Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV, which makes the Jeep Cherokee. The probe followed a recall of about 1.4 million vehicles to update radio software announced by Fiat Chrysler in July.
