- Manufacturer: Chrysler \(FCA US LLC\)
- Reported: 2016\-10\-13

## What is wrong

Chrysler \(FCA US LLC\) is recalling certain model year 2016\-2017 Jeep Wrangler vehicles manufactured June 16, 2015, to August 14, 2016.  In certain crash conditions, the front impact sensor wiring may be pulled until it detaches before a signal can be received by the Occupant Restraint Controller \(ORC\).


## What can happen

If the ORC module does not receive a signal from the front impact sensor, both frontal air bags and the seat belt pretensioners will not deploy in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.


## The remedy

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reroute the front impact sensor wiring and relocate the impact sensor branch, free of charge.  The recall began on November 10, 2016.  Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1\-800\-853\-1403.  Chrysler's number for this recall is S76.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
