## What is wrong

FCA US LLC \(Chrysler\) is recalling certain model year 2009 Dodge Journey vehicles manufactured December 31, 2007, to August 31, 2008, 2008\-2009 Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town and Country vehicles manufactured June 18, 2007, to August 31, 2008.  In the affected vehicles, the air bag control units may corrode and fail.


## What can happen

If the air bag control unit fails, the air bags may not deploy in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of occupant injury.  Additionally, the air bags may inadvertently deploy, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the air bag control unit, free of charge.  The recall began on December 6, 2016.  Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1\-800\-853\-1403.  Chrysler's number for this recall is S07.
