Recalls and investigations

  1. Electrical system, wiringMay 17, 2018

    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.

    THE SEAT BELT WILL NOT RETRACT NOR LOCK UP (TENSION) WHEN STOPPING SUDDENLY. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS ISSUE ONCE ALREADY. THEY TOLD MY HUSBAND IT WAS DUE TO ME YANKING ON THE SEATBELT. WHICH IS SOMETHING I DO NOT DO. I CANNOT EVEN FEED IT BACK INTO THE SLOT. I DISCOVERED THE SEATBELT WOULD NOT LOCK UP WHILE EXITING A PARKING LOT. A VEHICLE TURNED IN FRONT OF ME AND I HAD TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES. I BELIEVE I WAS ONLY GOING ABOUT 20 -25 MILES PER HOUR. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO STOP MYSELF FROM HITTING THE STEERING WHEEL. THE SEAT BELT NEVER LOCKED. THIS IS A 2014, WITH A LITTLE OVER 49,000 MILES. THE SEATBELT SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ISSUES LIKE THIS. NOW IT IS GOING TO COST ME A GOOD DEAL OF MONEY TO FIX. BEING THAT THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE, I FEEL IT SHOULD BE COVERED FROM THE MANUFACTURER.
