Cyberattack on CDK Cripples U.S. Auto Dealerships

Car dealerships across North America are experiencing significant disruptions due to cyberattacks on CDK Global, a major software supplier for auto dealers. The attacks have led to a multi-day outage affecting operations like vehicle sales and financing, with no clear resolution timeline. Major auto companies like Stellantis, Ford, and BMW have confirmed impacts on their dealers, who are resorting to manual processes. CDK is investigating the incidents and working to restore services while cautioning against phishing attempts.
