Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Dodge Journey, Charger and Durango, RAM 2500, 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis (more than 10,000lb), 4500 Cab Chassis and 5500 Cab Chassis, Jeep Cherokee and Grand Cherokee and Chrysler 300, 2014-2019 RAM 1500, 2015-2018 Dodge Challenger, 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, 2016-2018 RAM 3500 Cab Chassis (less than 10,000 lb), 2017-2018 Chrysler Pacifica and 2018 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. These vehicles are being recalled to address a defect that could prevent the cruise control system from disengaging. If, when using cruise control, there is a short circuit within the vehicle's wiring, the driver may not be able to shut off the cruise control either by depressing the brake pedal or manually turning the system off once it has been engaged, resulting in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.
If the vehicle maintains its speed or accelerates despite attempts to deactivate the cruise control, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the software, and perform a software flash on the engine or powertrain control module, free of charge. The recall began June 4, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed. In the event that cruise control cannot be disengaged while driving, owners should firmly and steadily apply the brakes and shift the transmission to neutral, placing the vehicle in park once it has stopped.

Electrical system, Air bags, Dec 13, 2021
In October 2014, a recall was called for some 2014 Dodge Durangos and Jeep Grand Cherokees because a electrical issue where the air bag light intermittently comes on and turns off repeatedly. My vehicle was not included but it is having the same issue which almost seems like a short in wiring. This is an issue that widely discussed in the Durango chat as other people are told as well that their 2014 is not included but they have the same issue.

Randomly car will flash shifter issue, brake issues, no bus, and many others. Wipers will then turn on and will go off by beeping horn. Then dash goes black. Sometimes during these frequent episodes transmission won’t shift out of low gear. Turn car off and it’s dead. Randomly restarts and acts normal for a bit. A month ago fuel pump went and paid $800 to repair. Been happening for a year. Today car is dead in driveway but randomly wipers began moving. Beep horn turns wipers off. This car is not right. Chrysler needs to be accountable and recall the TIPM box in these vehicle.

Fuel pump relay not working
Electrical system, Sep 15, 2021
Screen on center console gets extremely hot to the touch when car is running. Purchased the car 10 days ago and reported the issue to the dealer we purchased it from. Dealer arranged for the car to be taken in to one of their authorized dealers in the auto nation group which is closer to our home. Dealer was able to duplicate and stated the temperature registered at 120 degrees on the console and recommended replacing the head unit. This unit is overheating and causing the radio to short along with other buttons on the display to not work when pressed. Dealer we purchased from said they would take care of the issue then turned around and said the limited warranty will not cover this. This is extremely dangerous and could catch fire.

I am having starting issues, combined with stalling when it full power or even partial. I reviewed the recalls that were listed for this era vehicle. And it lines up with the fuel relay or fuse I can't remember which one it was that was happening on similar makes models and this year. I believe this should be involved in that recall, but it's not showing that it is.
Electrical system, Aug 25, 2021
The “service shifter” warning comes on and the gears begin to change on their own. This happen out of the blue and while driving the vehicle. Other dash board issues then come on and the car begins to say to service just about everything and then turns off the dash.

1st ALL of the interior lights won’t turn off no matter what you do. Doors all closed locked still stay on while driving can’t manually switch them off 2nd yesterday I went to pick up my daughter at school and the car all of a sudden just stopped running. It won’t start. Before it would do that and I had to exit the vehicle and use the remote start. Tried it this time and it said fob deactivated and just beeped. Then the alarm went off and wouldn’t turn off. When the alarm finally stopped the radio turned on for no reason but the car still won’t start. Fob has a new battery still won’t start. This car isn’t even old and only has 60,000 miles on it. Lucky I was pulling over and parking I could have died. Apparently this is a known issue it had to happen to me for me to find out about it. You’ll do a recall for cruise control but not this!!!’ Crazy this car is a defective death trap. It’s sitting on the curb in front of the house now since I had to have it towed home. I’m NOT driving it ever again.

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND HAD NOT BEEN USED SINCE 10PM THE NIGHT BEFORE. AT 7AM I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE AS I LOOKED OUT MY WINDOW. I WENT OUT AND THERE WAS A SMALL FLAME UNDER THE BUMPER NEAR THE EXHAUST PIPE ALSO SOME WIRES SEEMED TO BE ON FIRE. I WENT TO GET A HOSE, AND WHEN I RETURNED THERE WERE FLAMES ERUPTING UP NEAR THE TAIL LIGHT. A NEIGHBOR PUT OUT THE FIRE WITH A DRY CHEMICAL EXTINGUISHER. I CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NO IDEA WHAT COULD'VE HAPPENED, BUT SUSPECTED AN ELECTRICAL SHORT. I AM TAKING TO THE DEALER TO UNDERSTAND.

YESTERDAY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START MY DURANGO, IT TURNED OVER BUT DID NOT START. AS THIS IS THE 5TH TIME, I ALREADY KNEW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. I CHECKED THE FUSE FOR THE FUEL PUMP AND REPLACED IT. IT STARTED BACK UP FINE. ALTHOUGH THIS TIME, THIS PUT MY FAMILY AND I IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. WHEN DRIVING THROUGH A RAILROAD CROSSING, THE VEHICLE DIED ON ME. MOMENTS LATER THE BARRICADES CAME DOWN AND I JUMPED OUT QUICKLY TO PUSH THE VEHICLE WHILE MY WIFE AND KIDS WERE INSIDE. I MANAGED TO GET THEM OUT OF HARMS WAY BEFORE THE TRAIN ARRIVED. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM, LIKE THE 2011-2013 VEHICLES THAT ARE EXPERIENCING FUEL PUMP RELAY SWITCH. OBVIOUSLY 2014 MODELS ARE AFFECTED.

INTERMITTENT NO START CONDITION/START AND SHUT OFF AT ANY TIME WHICH STARTED AFTER VEHICLE TAKEN TO DEALER TO COMPLETE TRANS COOLER CONDENSER/MOTOR MOUNTS/RADIO REPLACEMENT. CAN HAPPEN AT COLD START OR AFTER VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN. THIS HAS HAPPENED 6 TIMES IN A COURSE OF ALMOST 3 MONTHS. VEHICLE TAKEN TO SCOTT ROBINSON DODGE IN TORRANCE, CA 3 TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO PROPERLY DIAGNOSE AND REPAIR. HAD ME REPLACE BATTERY AND STARTER. CONDITION STILL EXISTS. DEALER IS PLAYING GUESSING GAMES WITH THE REPAIRS NEEDED FOR MY VEHICLE. I ASKED DEALER TO CHECK FUSES AND WIRES TO TIPM. I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE IS BEING AFFECTED BY THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V813000 AND OTHERS WHICH AFFECTED 2011-2013 DURANGO'S. OTHER 2014 DURANGO OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED OF A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE. A RANDOM NO START/STALL CONDITION IS VERY CONCERNING SINCE THAT INCREASES MY CHANCES OF A STALL, CRASH AND BEING STRANDED. MULTIPLE TIMES I HAVE HAD MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR SCARED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. IF THE DEALER IS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE AND COMPLETE REPAIRS, THEN WHO CAN?? I HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN AND THIS IS MY ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION. I AM WITHOUT A VEHICLE AND NO LOANER GIVEN BY THE DEALER. IF IT WEREN'T FOR COVID, I'D REALLY BE OUT OF LUCK WITH NO OTHER MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. CHRYSLER NEEDS REVIEW AND EXPAND THE CURRENT RECALLS TO INCLUDE 2014 MODELS OR MAYBE A NEW ISSUE NEEDS TO BE IDENTIFIED AND BROUGHT TO LIGHT. VEHICLE ISSUE STARTED 09/05/20 AND HAS CONTINUED SINCE. SUV TAKEN TO DEALER 10/09/20, 10/21/20 & 11/04/20 FOR ISSUE. THEY ALSO ADVISED ON MY 10/21/20 VISIT THAT MY EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLTS ARE BROKEN WHICH IS CAUSING A TICKING NOISE AT START UP. THIS WAS NEVER DIAGNOSED AT PREVIOUS VISITS AND NOISE HAS BEEN THERE. I HAVE ATTACHED A MORE COMPREHENSIVE REPORT.

UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V741000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) WHICH HE LINKED TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

SO THE FIRST TIME I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY DURANGO. I ATTEMPTED TO START THE DURANGO AND IT JUST KEPT TURNING BUT WOULD NOT START. AT FIRST I THOUGH IT WAS MY FUEL PUMP. THEN I LOOKED AT THE FUSE AND THE FUEL PUMP MOTOR FUSE WAS A LITTLE BROWN ON THE PIN. SO I REPLACED IT WITH THE HORN FUSE 20A AND I WHEN I TURNED IT TO THE ON POSITION I COULD HEAR THE FUEL PUMP. DURING THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS I A HURRY TO WORK. I GOT MY KIDS IN TO DROP THEM OFF AND I GOT AND AND TRIED STARTING IT. SAME THING IT JUST KEEP TURNING BUT NO START. I CHECK THE FUSE AGAIN AND THE FUSE IS REALLY BURNT BUT NOT BLOWN. SO I WAIT FOR MY WIFE TO GET HOME SO I CAN BUY ANOTHER 20A FUSE. I REPLACE THE 20A FUSE AND IT STARTS. THIRD TIME THIS HAPPENED YESTERDAY 6-30-20. I CHECKED THE FUSE AND THE FUSE STILL LOOKS GOOD. DID MY RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT PREVIOUS DODGE DURANGOS HAVE BEEN RECALLED WITH BAD PUEL PUMP RELAY SWITCH FAILURE. NOW MY DURANGO SITS OUTSIDE BECAUSE IT WONT START. THE BAD RELAY SWITCH IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT WITH NEWER VEHICLES. I'VE NOTICED OTHER 2014 OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS.

I AM WRITING TO YOU REGARDING WHAT I CONSIDER TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE WITH MY 2014 DODGE DURANGO. I GOT INTO MY CAR TO GO TO WORK, STARTED THE CAR AND AS IT WAS RUNNING I SMELLED ELECTRICAL BURNING. I LOOKED AROUND THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. I NOTICED THE REAR TRACK LIGHTS HAD PARTS OF THE LIGHTS THAT WEREN'T LIT UP. I LOOKED CLOSER AND THERE WAS WATER IN THE LIGHTS. WHEN I FIRST VIEWED THE VEHICLE, I LIKED THE ADDED SAFETY FEATURE OF THE BACK BEING LIT. I AM EXPERIENCING CONDENSATION AND WATER COLLECTING INSIDE THE LIGHTS, RESULTING IN THE LIGHTS FAILING. I KNOW THAT MANY OTHER DURANGO OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME ISSUE AND HAVE SIMILAR CONCERNS. PLEASE SEE CARPCOMPLAINTS.COM. I AM ASKING THAT DODGE RECOGNIZE THIS MANUFACTURING ISSUE AND DESIGN FLAW, AND HAVE THE TRACKING LIGHTING FIXED, AT NO COST TO THE VEHICLE OWNER. I HAD FIRST CONTACTED MOPAR/DODGE CUSTOMER CARE. THE RESPONSE WAS THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND ALSO PAST SOME UNDEFINED 'SMALL WINDOW' WHEN DODGE WOULD ASSIST WITH THE COST OF REPAIR. CUSTOMER CARE REFERENCE #74976328. APPARENTLY DODGE DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS TO BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. AGAIN, I REFER TO THE HIGH NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE THAT ARE EASILY ACCESSIBLE ON-LINE. AND I HAVE ONLY MENTIONED ONE SITE. I WOULD BE INTERESTED TO KNOW HOW MANY SUCH COMPLAINTS DODGE HAS DIRECTLY RECEIVED. THE CUSTOMER CARE EMAIL INDICATES THAT IF DODGE'S 'ON-GOING INTERNAL INVESTIGATIONS' SHOW THIS TO IN FACT BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, THEY WILL CONTACT ME. I HAVE NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT GENERAL 'ON-GOING INTERNAL INVESTIGATIONS' WILL INCLUDE AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE REAR EXTERNAL LIGHT ISSUE. I AM HOPEFUL THAT THIS SAFETY ISSUE WILL BE LOOKED INTO. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
