Question About "Key Lockdown/RF Lockout" for DSRT 392

[RetiredFirefighter]

Thanks for the comments guys.

When I was looking for a DSRT last year, I called several dealers about getting it done. One said they knew about it and could do it, another said they guessed they could do it, the last two weren't aware of it. I've since lost that list, so I'm now going through the calling/search process again.

I knew about TSB 08-087-23, but your directing me to TSB 08-090-23 had me take a second look. I now see Dodge has one for each model year, the 087 being for 2023's and the 090 for 2019's. So I went to a TSB search website (https://www.tsbsearch.com/) and just interchanged the middle numbers until I found the one for my 2022.

Bingo! It's TSB 08-088-23, thanks again for the help.

It takes 10-15 minutes by a “real” tech.

Question:

Do people who have the Stellantis "Key Lock Down/RF Hub Lockout" done still need to keep their key fobs in a Faraday Bag?

Is the "relay attack" (described below) addressed by this procedure, or is the "RF Hub Lockout" meant for something else?

So do thieves not care about R/Ts?

No. Don’t give a rip and that is a PIA. Got that and one other fundamental “lock-out” in the Challenger and a concealed VIN. Enough for me. There is insurance.

For that example above my car is behind a very secure door, camera with motion detection (my home is surrounded with them) and a robust alarm system that is also monitored besides an instant alert on my phone for the cameras and any penetration of our home. A squirrel goes past that particular camera watching that door and I am alerted!

I know have multiple levels of security in place.
