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

The Air Bag recall may involve an Occupant Restraint Control module short circuit that can prevent frontal air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and side air bags from deploying in a crash. The Engine recall affects certain 2.4L-equipped Patriots and involves abrasive debris in balance shaft bearings that may cause loss of oil pressure, engine stalling, or engine failure. A stall while driving can increase crash risk. Because these defects involve essential safety systems and vehicle operation, waiting can leave you exposed to a preventable concern. NHTSA recall information identifies both campaigns, and an authorized dealer can complete the specified remedy at no charge when your VIN confirms eligibility.
