Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Safety Comes First

NHTSA recall information identifies five potential safety concerns for the 2015 Chrysler 300. An air bag inflator may rupture and send metal fragments toward occupants during deployment. A cruise-control defect may prevent the system from disengaging, allowing the vehicle to maintain speed or accelerate. Certain PCM issues can create a similar cruise-control risk. On eligible all-wheel-drive vehicles, loose front driveshaft bolts may cause a loss of motive power. Radio software vulnerabilities may permit unauthorized access to networked vehicle controls. Waiting can leave a known risk unresolved, so check your VIN and address open campaigns promptly.
