Bulletins for the same vehicles and component
| 08-001-15 | 2018-11-19. Service bulletin. L25 Interim Repair Procedure Brazil ONLY Upon starting the vehicle the Frequency Operated Button Ignition Key (FOBIK), may not fully seat in the ?ON? position. If not fully seated, under certain operating conditions (for example bumpy roads) the FOBIK could inadvertently move to the ?Accessory? mode. This could cause unintended engine shut off and the passive restraint systems, including the airbags to shut off. This could increase the risk of a crash under certain driving conditions and increase the risk of occupant injury during a crash. Chrysler intends to repair the vehicle free of charge (parts and labor). However, the part required to provide a permanent remedy for this condition is currently not available. NOTE: Chrysler is making every effort to provide the part as quickly as possible. |
