The same big-horsepower V8 that makes a Charger fun to own is exactly why a crew will spend two minutes in your driveway taking it. The 41.22 kill switch pulls your factory starter relay and drops in its place, so the engine stays dead until you arm it back. Here's how it works on a Charger.

## Why Dodge Chargers get targeted
The Charger sits at the top of the most-stolen lists, and the insurance industry has the receipts. Most modern thefts aren't smash-and-grab — they're relay attacks and OBD-port reprogramming that start the car without your key in well under a minute. The engine is the entire point: a 707-plus-horsepower V8 has huge resale demand for the whole car and for parts, so Chargers get hit far out of proportion to how many exist.
Dodge itself shipped an anti-theft "Security Mode" that throttles the engine to 2.8 horsepower until you enter a PIN — that's how real the problem is.

**By the numbers:** 60× — how much more often the Charger Hellcat is stolen vs. the average vehicle (HLDI/IIHS) · <1 min — to reprogram a key through the OBD port and drive off · 0 — wires cut — our module drops in at the relay

## Pop the relay, drop ours in, the starter stays dead
A relay attack or a cloned key still can't crank the engine — the starter circuit is open until you disarm it. No soldering, no cut wires, and it pops back to stock in minutes.

- **Wired Pushbutton ($108):** A hidden pushbutton you mount somewhere only you know. No batteries, ever.
- **Wireless Remote ($179):** Two keychain remotes, the easiest install we make. Disarm from indoors; works with remote start.

## The drop-in install, start to finish
Pull the factory starter relay, plug the 41.22 module into the empty socket, mount your switch where only you can reach it, and arm it. No tools beyond what's already in your glovebox. Reverse it any time and you're back to stock.

## Is a kill switch the best anti-theft for a Dodge Charger?
Alarms get ignored. GPS trackers tell you where your car went — not how to keep it. A kill switch is the only layer that stops the car from moving in the first place, and it stacks fine with whatever you already run. It's the cheapest "no" you can give a thief.

## Dodge Charger kill switch FAQ

**Does a kill switch stop a relay attack?**

Yes. A relay attack amplifies your fob's signal so the car unlocks and starts as if the key were present. With the 41.22 module armed, the starter circuit is physically open — the engine won't turn over no matter what signal a thief sends. A smart layered move is to also store your fob in a Faraday pouch overnight.

**Will it stop a key reprogrammed through the OBD port?**

It stops them from leaving with the car. Even if a thief plugs into the OBD-II port and programs a fresh fob in under a minute, that key is useless against a starter circuit disarmed at the relay. The new fob unlocks the doors and lights the dash — and the engine still won't crank.

**Does installing it void my Dodge warranty?**

It shouldn't. Nothing is cut or spliced — the module drops into the existing relay socket, so there's no permanent modification to point at. And if you ever need to, you can return the car to full OEM stock in just a few minutes by swapping the factory relay back in.

**Should I get the wired or wireless version?**

Wireless ($179) is the easiest install and lets you disarm from your pocket — it works with remote start, too. Wired ($108) is a hidden pushbutton with no batteries to ever think about. Both kill the same circuit.

**Is my Charger 100% theft-proof with this installed?**

No product makes a vehicle theft-proof. A dead starter circuit kills the fast, quiet drive-away theft — the relay attacks and OBD reprogramming that put the Charger at the top of the most-stolen lists — so most thieves move on to an easier target.
