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.

Optionally, owners may download the update to their own USB drive from http://www.driveuconnect.com/software-update/ or take their vehicle to a Chrysler dealer for immediate installation. In an effort to mitigate the effects of this security vulnerability, Chrysler has had the wireless service provider close the open cellular connection to the vehicle that provided unauthorized access to the vehicle network.

REAR RACETRACK LIGHTING HAS FILLED WITH WATER FROM RAIN AND SHORTED OUT THE L.E.D'S.
Electrical system, Exterior lighting, Jan 19, 2019
MY REAR RACETRACK LIGHT STARTED FILLING WITH WATER. SHORTLY AFTER THE RIGHT SIDE WENT OUT. CALLED MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER AND WAS TOLD I'D HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE PIECE WHICH IS $800.00+. THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE THING. SOUNDS LIKE A DESIGN FLAW TO ME. AND WHEN I RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE; IT SEEMS TO BE A REGULAR THING FOR DURANGO OWNERS. WISH MOPAR/DODGE WOULD OFFER SOME ASSISTANCE WITH THIS PROBLEM.
Electrical system, Exterior lighting, Dec 23, 2018
THE TAILIGHT IS NOT WATER TIGHT AND WATER LEAKS IN AND POOLS ON THE BOTTOM. THIS WATER SHORTS OUT THE TAILIGHT AND CAUSES IT TO NOT LIGHT UP AT ALL. THIS SHORT CIRCUITING CAN ALSO CAUSE MULTIPLE OTHER ISSUES FOR THINGS UNRELATED TO THE TAILIGHT, CAUSING OTHER SYSTEMS TO SHORT.
Electrical system, Exterior lighting, Dec 6, 2018
REAR RACETRACK TAIL LIGHT FILLS WITH WATER. LOOKS LIKE DODGE OVERTIGHTENED THE BOLTS CAUSING THE PLASTIC TO CRACK WHICH LEADS TO THE MAIN TAIL LIGHT TO FILL WITH WATER AND SHORT OUT. THIS CAUSES THE TAIL LIGHTS TO NOT FUNCTION MAKING IT A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. OF COURSE HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY AND DODGE WON'T DO A THING ABOUT IT, IT ACCORDING TO THEM IS A ME PROBLEM. I HAVE SEEN OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS RACETRACK DESIGN TAIL LIGHT SYSTEM IS A TERRIBLE DESIGN AND A DANGEROUS ONE.
Electrical system, Exterior lighting, Structure, Nov 27, 2018
THE BACKUP LIGHT ASSEMBLY IS THIS VEHICLE FILLS WITH WATER DURING RAIN OR CAR WASHES, SPEED IS IRELEVANT. THE WATER SHORTS OUT THE LED LIGHTS, CAUSING THEM TO FAIL. THE ASSEMBLY IS SUPPOSED TO BE WATER TIGHT, THEREFOR THERE IS NO WAY FOR THE WATER IT COLLECTS TO DRAIN. THEREFORE, THE METAL COMPONENTS OF THIS ASSEMBLY ARE ALSO BEGINNING TO RUST DUE TO THE PERSISTENT PRESENCE OF WATER. REPLACING THIS FAILED ASSEMBLY COSTS $1,300. THIS COMPONENT SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE WATER TIGHT ON WELL MAINTAINED VEHICLES, SUCH AS MINE. THIS FAILURE FEELS LIKE A FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THE ORIGINAL PART. DODGE SHOULD REPLACE THESE FAILED ASSEMBLIES AT A MUCH MORE REASONABLE PRICE, OR FREE OF CHARGE, DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE COMPONENT IS DESIGNED TO LAST THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE, AND CERTAINLY ISN'T FOR ME AND MANY OTHERS.
Electrical system, Vehicle speed control, Engine, Nov 6, 2018
VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT DRIVER INPUT, INCLUDING GOING UP A HILL WITHOUT DRIVER PRESSING ACCELERATOR. ENGINE REDLINED WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WITHOUT DRIVER INPUT. VEHICLE PUT INTO NEUTRAL, BUT ENGINE REVVING WOULD NOT DECREASE, AND THEN DRIVER PUT VEHICLE INTO PARK WHICH CONTINUED TO REV AT HIGH RPMS, BUT VEHICLE WOULD THEN NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND THEN BACK ON AFTER 45 TO 60 SECONDS, BUT VEHICLE CONTINUED TO REV ENGINE AT HIGH RPMS AND SHOWED THAT VEHICLE WAS IN 8TH GEAR. APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES LATER, VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN ON. TRIED TO TURN VEHICLE ON AND IT WOULD TURN ITSELF OFF WITHOUT TRYING TO START.
Electrical system, Exterior lighting, Nov 2, 2018
WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, I NOTICED THE "RACETRACK" STYLE LED TAIL LIGHTS, SPECIFICALLY THE LARGE SECTION ACROSS THE TRUNK, ON MY DODGE DURANGO WERE NO LONGER WORKING. I DID AN ONLINE SEARCH AND MULTIPLE INCIDENTS REGARDING THIS SAME ISSUE POPPED UP. IT APPEARS A FAULTY SEAL AROUND THE TAIL LIGHT ALLOWS FOR WATER TO ENTER THE INSIDE OF THE LIGHT CAUSING IT TO BURN OUT. THE ONLY FIX FOR THIS IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE LED UNIT AT A COST OF OVER $1000 WHICH THE VEHICLE OWNER MUST PAY FOR. THE REPLACEMENT OF THE LED LIGHT DOES NOT FIX THE LEAKING ISSUE ALLOWING FOR THE LIGHT TO BURN OUT AGAIN.

THE CAR HAS ALWAYS "RADDLED" SINCE I FIRST BOUGHT IT. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS THE TIRES AND THAT THEY'D BEEN ROTATED AND SHOULD BE FIXED. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN JUNE 2017 AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES SINCE DESPITE MY MANY COMPLAINTS. YESTERDAY, THE VEHICLE SHIFTED GEARS WHILE DRIVING, HORN STARTED HONKING UNCONTROLLABLY UNTIL I HAD TO REMOVE THE FUSE, THE SCREENS ALL BLANKED OUT AND FLASHED WARNINGS, HEADRESTS VOLUNTARILY FOLDING...

THE REAR SENSOR BEEPS NON STOP EVEN THOUGH THERE IS NOTHING BEHIND IT.

I HAVE ALSO BEEN DEALING WITH THE KEY FOB, EVERY TIME I GO TO LOCK MY CAR IT BEEPS ONCE TO LOCK AND AFTER THE FIRST BEEP IT BEEPS 3 TIMES AND THEN UNLOCKS MY CAR. WHEN THE CAR IS ON AND I GO TO OPEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR, EVEN WITH THE KEY IN THE CAR, THE CAR BEEPS AND TELLS ME THE KEY FOB IS NOT IN THE VEHICLE. THE RACE TRACK LIGHT WAS BEGINNING TO FOG UP AND WITH TIME WE STARTED TO NOTICE THAT IT WAS FILLING UP WITH MOISTURE. IT FILLED UP TO ABOUT AND 1" AND WE MANAGED TO RELEASE THE WATER BUT PART OF THE RACE TRACK LIGHT IS BURNED OUT NOW. I STILL HAVE THE WARRANTY BUT THE DEALER SAID THAT THOSE LIGHTS ARE NOT COVERED AND THE PRICING WOULD RANGE FROM $1000-$1200 TO FIX.
