FCA ISOs are bundled from various vendors. The QNX OS from Harman, some of the uconnect apps and the data connectivity is from Sprint. * FCA is an automotive company, I presume their s/w release management dont follow best practices. *

What if the function of freeze_credit_report(..) is buggy too ? I do not think freezing a credit report will make this any safer. It might be just another flag in their already buggy system.
