Recall Service & Dealership Highlights
Safety Comes First
NHTSA recall information identifies risks that should not be ignored. A loose Tow Hook bracket may detach and create a road hazard or affect control during recovery. On certain ProCharger-equipped vehicles, a Supercharger Mounting Bracket may damage the ABS line and cause a brake fluid leak, increasing stopping distance. A Cruise Control defect may prevent the system from disengaging, creating an unintended acceleration risk. On certain 3.0L EcoDiesel vehicles, a cracked EGR cooler may allow combustion in the intake manifold and increase fire risk. Waiting can leave a known safety concern unresolved, so check your VIN and arrange the remedy promptly.
