Details

What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with 2.4L engines. In the affected vehicles, the engine cover may detach from the engine and contact the exhaust manifold.

Why it matters: If the displaced engine cover contacts the exhaust manifold, there would be an increased risk of a vehicle fire.

The fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will install an improved mounting system for the engine cover, free of charge. The recall began on October 15, 2015.
