## What is wrong

Chrysler \(FCA US LLC\) is recalling certain model year 2014\-2015 Jeep Cherokee and 2015 Chrysler 200, Jeep Renegade, RAM ProMaster, and 2016 Fiat 500X vehicles equipped with 9\-speed automatic transmissions.  The transmission sensor clusters may have insufficient crimps in the transmission wire harness, and as a result, the transmission may unexpectedly shift to neutral.  On August 29, 2016 Chrysler added the 2016 Fiat 500X vehicles to this recall.


## What can happen

If the vehicle unexpectedly shifts to neutral, there is an increased risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Chrysler will notify owners, dealers will reprogram the Powertrain Control Module and the Transmission Control Module and if necessary replace the transaxle range sensor wire harness, free of charge.  The recall began on November 7, 2016.  Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1\-800\-853\-1403.  Chrysler's number for this recall is S55.
