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:

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.

At 83,000 miles the 2017 Pacifica needed new headgaskets, rocker arms, and camshafts. I am the first and only owner of the van and have been meticulous about maintenance. Apparently this is a known issue with the Pacifica. The dealership and an outside mechanic verified these issues with my Pacifica. Rough idle was the only warning something was wrong before the check engine light came on. I took it to the dealership immediately.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

I have 2017 Pacifica with just under 80,000 miles on it. I had a check engine light come on which was a 5th cylinder misfire. I had the plugs/coils replaced and oil/filter done. After 2 days the service engine light reappeared with the same diagnosis(5th cylinder misfire). I took it back to the shop and they discovered coolant leaking and the smell of it burning. They believe it was a blown head gasket. The car is now at a Chrysler dealership to confirm the bad news. Chrysler needs to step up and resolve this issue with a recall or some type of reimbursement.

Check engine light continues to come on and it gives the code “3rd cylinder misfire” even after multiple attempts to correct the problem. Has been determined there may be a crack in the engine block. Car only has 94,000 miles on it so this is too young for it to be happening. The engine runs rough continuously and I am afraid for the safety of myself and my 4 children that ride along with me daily.

Additional Notes:

Since owning the vehicle for over 3 years the brake shave been hissing and inconsistently engage when pressing the brake pedal. I have had several near accidents ranging from rolling into some while in a stopped position (moved vehicle to park to avoid), to almost causing major collisions on hwy do to the inability to come to a quick stop or slow. It is pure luck I have not been in an accident.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

The vehicle will shut off randomly while in the drive position, and happens when in motion or stopped. THIS CAUSES A HUGE CONCERN as this is our family vehicle that Carrie’s our children. My wife was making a left hand turn in an intersection, with our kids in the Van and shut down on its own in the middle of the turn. We ensure all regular and required maintenance is completed on our vehicle to ensure the safety at all times and this is beyond our control. We took it to the shop and they don’t know what’s going on as it’s intermittently happening. I have read several others having the same issues. This is a huge safety issue that requires immediate attention, please help!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

The vehicle has had constant electrical issues. The car freaks out at sporadic times. This can include power cutting in and out while driving, suddenly being unable to put into gear, or unable to start the vehicle at all. Symptoms include tactometer and speedometer simultaneously going up all the way and down over and over again, engine slowing down and starting. Lights on the shifter flashing (this was replaced). A Dealer service rep saw it when I drove in, but was unable to mimic it since it happens so sporadically - they had never seen it before and eventually said, "We don't know what to do."
