NHTSA recall 18V523000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)
Details
What's wrong: The rear brake caliper pistons on these vehicles may have an insufficient coating causing gas pockets to form, potentially reducing rear brake performance.
Why it matters: A reduction of braking performance can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will bleed the vehicle's brake system, free of charge. The recall began September 29, 2018.
