CES has essentially become another stop on the auto-show circuit, with a gaggle of major carmakers showing off their latest tech.

This year, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) is focusing on its Uconnect Access suite of services, which already includes features like remote unlocking and stolen vehicle tracking.

FCA has four new Uconnect Access features that allow owners to keep tabs on their vehicles remotely using a newly-updated smartphone app.

The first of these is a Vehicle Finder, which can use maps (with satellite or hybrid view) to find a car at the touch of a button. Owners can then beep the horn, or send the location to their phone’s navigation app to find a route.

If you know where your car is, but not where to go from there, Uconnect will also offer a Send Destination to Vehicle feature that downloads places or addresses found on a phone to the car’s navigation system with the push of a button.
