Details
What's wrong: The gears within the hydraulic rack and pinion steering system may have a casting defect that can cause a crack and a loss of hydraulic steering fluid.
Why it matters: A hydraulic steering fluid leak may require additional sudden steering effort, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the steering gear housing, replacing any affected rack-and-pinion assembly, free of charge. The recall began March 13, 2018.
