Auto giant Stellantis investigating data breach following ‘unauthorized access’

The multinational carmaker Stellantis said unauthorized access to a third-party provider’s platform resulted in the potential exposure of customer data. 

In a statement released on Sunday, the company said the incident affected a provider supporting the North American branch’s customer service.

“The personal information involved was limited to contact information,” Stellantis said. “Importantly, the affected platform does not store financial or sensitive personal information, and none was accessed.”   

The company did not respond to a request for comment. Stellantis, whose North American headquarters are in Auburn Hills, Michigan, owns more than a dozen automobile brands, including Chrysler, Jeep, Peugeot and Dodge. It reported more than $87 billion in revenues in the first quarter of 2025. 

Stellantis’ breach disclosure coincides with a major incident affecting Jaguar Land Rover’s manufacturing, which announced last week that its global operations would remain shuttered until at least September 24 following a cyberattack.
