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.

NHTSA Campaign: 18V100000 SAFETY RECALL
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. With the pin in the open position, the transmission can be shifted out of PARK into any gear without pushing the brake pedal or having the key in the ignition.

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.
FREE Recall Solution:
Chrysler will notify owners and dealers will update the Body Control Module software. Dealers will also test the BTSI operation, replacing the solenoid as necessary. The recall began February 26, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is U11.

Safety Issue:

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling various Dodge, Chrysler, and RAM vehicles equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V824-0103.pdf.

Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf

Potential Risk:
If the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a fire.

I paid and did the repair back in august myself but now seems to be a delay in getting the parts. I bought the truck in December 2017 so if you average the miles the second HCU only has approximately 8000 miles on it. These parts should last longer than that. The truck has only 47000 total miles on it.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

The ABS light and traction control light randomly come on. I loose breaking power from time to time. It is a known issue with these vehicles. Unfortunately there is no way to fix it at this time. All of the dealerships near me have the part on back order and have for well over 6 months. It’s not very fun to drive around with no reliable ABS and the possibility the brakes may fail. I do not drive my truck basically at all anymore. It is a 2018 with 44000 miles. There is no reason the ABS should have failed. The vehicle has been inspected and I was told that a new module was needed. The problem is, I can’t get the module. This needs to be fixed

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Dashboard ABS and Traction Control Lights come on intermittently with message to service breaking system. The lights are accompanied by loud audio alarms. The audio alarms usually cycle through a minimum of three times; sometime five. The dashboard ABS and Traction lights reset by themselves. Scanner codes identify an electrical problem with the ABS HCU and/or hydraulic pump. Dealership maintenance and service departments advise new parts are not available but to check back frequently for supply updates. If/when repair parts become available, this repair will be the second time I have endured this problem. Also, I have been able to reset the above dashboard alerts and audio alarms without the aid of Bidirectional scanner by cycling my windows down and up. So, I’m not sure if I have an ABS/TC problem or a wiring problem.

Dealership maintenance and service departments advise new parts are not available but to check back frequently for supply updates. If/when repair parts become available, this repair will be the second time I have endured this problem. Also, I have been able to reset the above dashboard alerts and audio alarms without the aid of Bidirectional scanner by cycling my windows down and up. So, I’m not sure if I have an ABS/TC problem or a wiring problem.

Additional Notes:

Dashboard ABS and Traction Control Lights come on intermittently with message to service breaking system. The lights are accompanied by loud audio alarms. The audio alarms usually cycle through a minimum of three times; sometime five. The dashboard ABS and Traction lights reset by themselves. Scanner codes identify an electrical problem with the ABS HCU and/or hydraulic pump.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

Potential Consequences:

At around 50,000 miles my truck began to turn off cruise control while driving, ding, and the ABS ,as well as, the traction control light came on. It goes on and off repeatedly while driving. This is incredibly distracting and quite possibly dangerous for braking and handling. The local dealership is aware and have stated that even though it is still under warranty, there is no available part to fix it.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

On August 18th, 2022, my "Service ABS system" light starting blinking on and off constantly. I took it to the dealer. They replaced the HCU unit, part of the ABS system. It was not a cheap repair. Yesterday, it starting doing it again. I have read several places that this is a known issue and lots of people are having it. Shouldn't there be a recall by RAM for this? I tow a trailer with my truck. I'm sure this is a safety issue.

Defect Description:

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

Potential Consequences:

The ABS/ Traction control is intermittently failing. It is aviliable for inspection. When the light comes on I have no ABS or Traction control which may cause me to lose control under certain circumstances. The dealer has and the manufacturer has confirmed the problem. The dealership was able to reproduce the issue. The component was inspected by the dealership. There are the ABS/ Traction control light that comes on the dash sometimes. I have been told that the part that needs to be replace is backordered indefinitely and the manufacturer has no idea when they will get any new ones. From what reasearch I have done it looks like they need to reengineer the parts to make them work right. Also told that this is not covered by any recalls which I think is wrong as it is a safety issue that they knew about.
