Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with hellcat engines. The engine oil cooler (eoc) hoses may fail resulting in a rapid loss of engine oil.
Why it matters: If an eoc line fails, oil may spray onto the windshield or contact a hot surface, impairing driver visibility and increasing the risk of a crash or fire.
The fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the eoc lines, free of charge. The recall began October 3, 2017.
