20203712020-08-13. Engine. Issue: On certain vehicles equipped with a 3.0 L diesel engine, a problem with the engine tone wheel could cause a loss of signal to crankshaft position sensor. If this happens, the engine could stall and you may not be able to restart it. Safety Risk: A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to update the powertrain control module. This update will help maintain engine power if the crankshaft position signal is lost.
20195352019-10-25. Engine. Issue: On certain trucks equipped with a 3.0-L EcoDiesel engine, the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler could crack internally and leak.

Please see <a href="http://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/detail.aspx?lang=eng&&rn=2019441">recall 2019441</a> for more information. On certain trucks equipped with a power locking tailgate, the tailgate may open while driving. If this occurs, cargo that is not secured could fall out of the truck bed and onto the road. Note: This is an expansion of recall U74 (Transport Canada recall 2018-398). Safety Risk: Cargo that falls from the truck bed could create a road hazard for others. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their truck to a dealer to modify the tailgate locking mechanism.
20183982018-07-31. Structure. Certain trucks equipped with a power locking tailgate may experience unintended opening of the tailgate. If this occurs while driving, unrestrained cargo could fall out of the box and create a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will modify the locking mechanism.
20182692018-05-17. Engine. On certain vehicles, an electronic fault may create a situation where the cruise control cannot be deactivated. If this occurs and the driver does not apply the brakes or shift the transmission to neutral, the vehicle could maintain speed or accelerate without warning, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) software and perform an update as necessary. Note: In the interim, owners are advised not to use the cruise control until the vehicle is repaired.
20176632017-12-22. Accessories. On certain vehicles equipped with the Roadside Emergency Kit containing a Kidde fire extinguishers with black plastic handles and valves, the fire extinguishers may become clogged or require excessive force to activate. Also, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury, and fail to discharge. In case of fire, failure of the extinguisher to function could result in injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the suspect Kidde fire extinguisher with a new Kidde fire extinguisher with a steel nozzle. For more information about recalled fire extinguishers, please visit <a href="https://inmarmarketaction.com/kidde/Kidde284CA/">www.kidde.com</a>.
20176592017-12-21. Powertrain. On certain vehicles equipped with a steering column gear shifter, the brake transmission shift interlock (BTSI) may become inoperative. This could allow the steering column gear shifter lever to be shifted out of the PARK (P) position without depressing the service brake pedal or having the key in the ignition, which could result in unintended vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace the BTSI as necessary. The Body Control Module (BCM) will also be updated.
20172502017-05-10. Airbag. On certain vehicles equipped with Occupant Restraint Controllers (“ORC”) with roll rate sensing, under certain external conditions, a fault may be set relating to rollover sensing that will illuminate the airbag warning light and disable rollover sensing until the vehicle is restarted. A loss of airbags and seatbelt pretensioner deployment when warranted during a rollover crash may increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the ORC.
20162142016-05-12. Accessories. *** This notice is provided for information purposes only as the subject equipment is not regulated under the Motor Vehicle Safety Act *** Certain Mopar canvas seat covers, sold as aftermarket parts, may not be compatible with vehicles equipped with seat thorax airbags and could impede deployment. This could increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant in a side impact crash where seat thorax airbag deployment is warranted. Correction: FCA Canada will notify owners who may have purchased the Mopar Canvas Seat Covers, and advise them to remove the covers and return them for a refund.
20161292016-03-23. Steering. On certain vehicles, the electric power steering (EPS) control circuit board may have been contaminated during manufacturing. This could result in an intermittent or permanent sudden loss of power steering assist while driving. Steering control can be maintained, as the vehicle will revert to a manual steering mode, but will require greater driver effort. The sudden change in steering effort may increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the EPS rack and pinion gear assembly.
20154772015-10-16. Powertrain. On certain vehicles, some rear axle shafts may have been incorrectly heat treated during manufacture at the outboard bearing journal which may cause heat buildup, thermal degradation of nearby wiring circuits, illumination of the ABS warning lamp and noise during operation. If ignored, the axle shaft could fracture, which could cause a wheel to separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect axle shafts, and if necessary, replace the axle assembly.
20153672015-08-13. Electrical. On certain 4x2 vehicles equipped with a 3.0L diesel engine, the battery harness may chafe against the right engine mount frame bracket which can result in a high resistance short. This could result in a loss of motive power or a vehicle fire which could increase the risk of a crash resulting in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the harness routing and ensure sufficient clearance to the right engine mounting bracket and replace any wiring harnesses with evidence of wear.
20153262015-07-22. Airbag. On certain 4-door pickup vehicles, the software in Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) module may contain side impact calibrations that are overly sensitive. This could result in unintended deployment of the Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC), seat airbag, and/or seatbelt pre-tensioner during certain driving conditions, which could startle the driver and result in a vehicle crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will update the ORC module calibration.

A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
