4.8M Vehicles Affected
Recall Date: May 17, 2018
Safety Issue:

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.

Potential Risk:
If the vehicle maintains its speed or accelerates despite attempts to deactivate the cruise control, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
FREE Recall Solution:
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.
Additional Details:

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

180.5K Vehicles Affected
Recall Date: Feb 8, 2018
Safety Issue:

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2017-2018 RAM 1500, 2500, 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis, 4500 Cab Chassis, and 5500 Cab Chassis vehicles, all equipped with a column shifter. Pushing the brake pedal for prolonged periods when the vehicle is running and in PARK may cause the Brake Transmission Shift Interlock (BTSI) pin to stick in the open position.

Potential Risk:
Being able to shift the transmission without pushing the brake pedal and/or without a key in the ignition can increase the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

The service brake system and service antilock brake system light came on. This light comes on quite often and shuts off intermittently. The pick-up no-longer has anti-lock brakes, traction control, or stability control. When light is on cruise will not work which if it set and light comes on it will shut-off and cause vehicle to drop speed which could cause an accident. Last time I drove it it felt like the brakes were spongy or not really engaging, which almost cause me to go through stop sign on to a highway. I have not had a chance to take it in to get checked yet, and the parts to repair I believe are back ordered.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

Abs lights on traction control lights on constantly off and on alarming. Making it un drivable Was told it's very common issue currently being investigated by nhtsa. Dealership confirmed HCU Pump control module. Costing me quoted $1750 for repairs and unknown when part comes in. Earliest is end of March. All the forums and videos I've seen that this is constantly happening and this needs to be recalled. I believe it already has on the 2019-2022 models. Safety concern with no abs or traction control. Also cruise control won't work.

Additional Notes:

Abs lights on traction control lights on constantly off and on alarming. Making it un drivable Was told it's very common issue currently being investigated by nhtsa. Dealership confirmed HCU Pump control module. Costing me quoted $1750 for repairs and unknown when part comes in. Earliest is end of March. All the forums and videos I've seen that this is constantly happening and this needs to be recalled. I believe it already has on the 2019-2022 models. Safety concern with no abs or traction control. Also cruise control won't work.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

ABS and Traction Control system failures. Available for inspection Lack of ABS makes controlling or stopping difficult in the winter, higher potential for collision in slippery conditions. Dealership has confirmed that ABS and HCU modules are cause. Service traction control and antilock brake system messages displayed intermittently starting around July 2022 at 40,000 miles, and then continued until total failure.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

While driving my truck in the interstate in the rain, I went to change lanes and accelerate to pass a slower moving vehicle. As soon as I hit the accelerator the antilock brake system warning light illuminated and the rear wheels broke traction. The rear end of the truck began to slide and I nearly lost control. I had not had any problems with the brake system prior to this incident. From that point on the service abs/brakes light and alert noise began to activate on and off intermittently and the traction control is inoperable. In doing research this is apparently a known issue with the hydraulic brake control unit. I was fortunate to be able to maintain control of the truck.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

The vehicle continues to have ABS control module/electronic braking failures. I was told by the dealer no replacement modules are available, and could be back ordered for up to 6 months. Research online indicates this is a very common problem. This is a clear safety hazard. A recall needs to be issued for these failing parts. I had these parts replaced one year ago and they already have failed again.
