The miscalibrated ORC may incorrectly deploy the air bags during a frontal crash, increasing the risk of injury.

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ORC. The recall began September 24, 2019. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is V73.
