## Other bulletins for the same vehicles and component

- [9004378](/bulletins/10229998.md), 2023-01-17, Service bulletin: SEAT BELTS; PARKING BRAKE. KEY, BLANK WITH TRANSMITTER Please note that after programming the new key integrated transmitter that Lock, Unlock and Remote Start will all function as expected but the Remote Start Cancel button requires a double \(2x\) button press versus the original single \(1x\) button press to cancel the remote start function and turn the vehicle off.
- [9004206](/bulletins/10228975.md), 2023-01-09, Service bulletin: PARKING BRAKE; STRUCTURE; POWER TRAIN. Remanufactured Transmission Assembly 1. All Promaster \(VF\) 3.6L/62TE equipped vehicles: a\) If the transmission bracket to the transmission case fasteners are removed during servicing, the fasteners \(Part Number 06511385A$\) must be replaced as they are one\-time usage. b\) Vehicles built prior to 10/23/2015 requires Service Kit PN 68461214AA; includes Transmission Isolator PN 68264483AA, and Adaptation Bracket 68264479AA and Fastener Service Kit PN 68329056AA. c\) Vehicles built on or after 10/23/2015 will require only the Fastener Service Kit PN 68329056AA. 2. Only use the reman 62TE specified in StarParts for each model year \- Only use R8210327A$ for 2014 \- 2018 VF. \- Only use R8453637A$ for 2019 VF. \- Only use R8599680AA for 2020/1VF. Installing a R8453637A$ or R8599680A$ in a 2014\-18 VF will result in a 2014\-18 MY core being returned. Mopar can no longer convert 2014\-18 VF 62TE core to the 2019\-21 version. Continued mis\-usage will result in a core shortage. Mopar may deny warranty claims where the incorrect version is used in 2014\-18 VF. 3. The engine to transmission dowel pins are critical to the longevity of several components. Verify the dowel pins are in the rear face of engine block before installing a replacement transmission. Mopar will add loose dowel pins with remanufactured 62TE. 4. All 62TE equipped vehicles. If vehicle is jerking/slipping with MIL code\(s\) P0740 or P2764, check TCC Solenoid operation. If TCC Solenoid is ok, the codes are indicative of a torque converter failure. Replace the torque converter. 5. There may be incorrect fluid measurement on the dipstick tool when checking 62TE fluid level after filling the ATF as per service library specification. Please change with new valve body pan P/N:68145886A$ as there may be incorrect valve body pan is used in Transmission.
