Details
What's wrong: Use of the front windshield wipers on dry glass may cause damage to the body control module (bcm).
Why it matters: Bcm damage may result in the failure of the windshield wipers, impairing the driver's vision and increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
The fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will install a ground strap to protect the bcm from damage, free of charge. Owners were notified of the recall on October 7, 2015. The recall began on December 15, 2015.
