Defect

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2011-2014 Chrysler 200, 2010 Chrysler Sebring, 2010-2012 Dodge Caliber and 2010-2014 Jeep Patriot, Compass and Dodge Avenger vehicles. The Occupant Restraint Control (OCR) module may short circuit, preventing the frontal air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and side air bags from deploying in the event of a crash.

Consequence

If the frontal air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and side air bags are disabled, there is an increased risk of injury to the vehicle occupants in the event of a vehicle crash that necessitates deployment of these safety systems.

Corrective Action

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the OCR, free of charge. Interim letters informing owners that parts are not available yet were mailed on October 26, 2016. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available in June 2017. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is S61.

Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Safety Comes First

NHTSA recall information identifies two safety concerns for the 2014 Jeep Compass. A Seat Belt-related Occupant Restraint Control module may short circuit, potentially preventing frontal air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and side air bags from deploying in a crash. That can increase the risk of occupant injury. On certain vehicles with the 2.4L engine, abrasive debris in the balance shaft bearings may cause loss of oil pressure, an engine stall, or engine failure, increasing crash risk. Waiting can leave a safety-related condition unresolved, so a free VIN check and prompt authorized repair are important steps.
