Can stallThe affected vehicles had brake booster shields installed under a previous campaign to prevent water from entering the brake booster and limiting braking ability. This recall is to verify that the brake booster shield installation was performed properly. If the brake booster shield was not installed properly, the vehicle's braking ability may be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the brake booster shield, correcting the installation as necessary, free of charge.
Recall 17V572000 · Sep 2017Vacuum
The subject vehicles have a brake booster with a center shell that may corrode and allow water to get inside. The water inside could freeze and limit the braking ability of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will add a water diverter shield to the booster after the booster has been tested to confirm it can hold an acceptable amount of vacuum pressure. If the booster inspection confirms an unacceptable loss of vacuum pressure, the booster will be replaced.
Recall 14V154000 · Apr 2014Loss of ABS and stability control
Crash riskLoose alternator ground wires and a computer communication fault can cause warning lights to flicker or go dark, and can disable anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control. Without them you have less control in a skid or emergency stop, and you may not be warned of brake or other system failures, which raises the risk of a crash.
Fix: The dealer will update the ABS and instrument cluster software and tighten the alternator ground wire, free of charge.
