NHTSA recall 00V416000
Electrical System · Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)
Details
What's wrong: Starter assemblies were built with suspect plastic terminal blocks which could develop stress cracks subsequent to their installation onto the body of the starter. Separation of the terminal block from the starter body could potentially allow the un-fused positive terminal to come into contact with an adjacent surface, providing a path to ground.
Why it matters: This condition could overheat the starter wiring, creating the potential for a vehicle fire.
The fix: Dealers will replace the starter terminal block jumper harness.
