Details
What's wrong: Some vehicles may have experience a noise (growl, grind) coming from the rear axle bearing which could eventually seize.
Why it matters: A failure of the bearing could cause the vehicle to stall increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Chrysler will notify owners and will install an oil port insert into the rear axle free of charge. The safety recall began on April 4, 2011.
