Details

What's wrong: The affected vehicles may experience unintended side curtain and seat air bag deployment during vehicle operation.

Why it matters: If the air bags deploy unexpectedly during vehicle operation, it can increase the risk of personal injury and increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will re-flash the occupant restraint control module software, free of charge. The recall began on March 4, 2015.
