Fiat-Chrysler Recall
Has any owner been notified of this recall? I was reading my "hometown" newspaper (Oil City, Pa) and found the article... owning one of the vehicles, I was concerned. Called the dealership this AM and was told they do not have information regarding repairing the cruise control and stated I should be getting a letter within the next couple weeks..... seems like a long time waiting to be notified. Glad I read the "old hometown news".
DETROIT (AP) — Fiat Chrysler is recalling more than 5.3 million vehicles in the U.S., Canada and elsewhere because in rare but terrifying circumstances, drivers may not be able to turn off the cruise control. The company is warning owners not to use cruise control until the cars, SUVs and trucks can be fixed with a software update.* Affected models include the 2014-2019 Ram 1500 pickup, as well as the 2014- 2018 Ram 2500, 3500, 4500 and 5500 pickups and chassis cab trucks. Also covered are the 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, the 2014-2018 Chrysler 300, the 2017 and 2018 Chrysler Pacifica minivan. Dodge vehicles included are the 2015 to 2018 Challenger, and the 2014 to 2018 Charger, Journey and Durango, while affected Jeeps include the 2014 through 2018 Cherokee and Grand Cherokee and the 2018 Wrangler. Fiat Chrysler will begin notifying customers as early as next week. The company is urging customers to follow the recall instructions and get the repairs done as soon as possible.
