Details
What's wrong: The clockspring assembly may become contaminated with dust and cause the air bag circuit to fail.
Why it matters: Failure of the air bag circuit may prevent the driver's frontal air bag from deploying in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the clockspring, wheel back cover, and column shroud, free of charge. The recall began on December 14, 2016.
