Fiat Chrysler U.S. to recall vehicles to prevent hacking

http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/07/24/fiat-chrysler-recall-idUSL1N1041QI20150724

Fiat Chrysler will recall 1.4 million vehicles in the United States to install software to prevent hackers from gaining remote control of the engine, steering and other systems in what federal officials said was the first such action of its kind.

Chrysler's only produced 1.4 million cars that someway are affected by hacking? I would imagine they have made more than that that are susceptible in the recent years.

I don't know. Maybe they have only recalled Jeep Cherokees like the one that was hacked?
