On certain vehicles, a defect in the supplemental restraint system (SRS) could result in an inadvertent deployment of the front airbag, side curtain airbag and/or seatbelt pretensioner. Unintended seatbelt pretensioner and/or airbag deployment, in a non-warranted (non-impact) situation, could startle the driver, which could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. In some instances, inadvertent deployment could cause minor injuries to vehicle occupants. Correction: Dealers will replace the SRS control unit and may install an in-line jumper wiring harness to correct the issue. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2015-040.
A failure of this component (airbag) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).

The company will carry out a voluntary customer satisfaction campaign to offer a structural improvement to mitigate the risks of fuel leakage in certain low-speed collisions. Chrysler will inspect the affected vehicles and install a Chrysler trailer hitch if appropriate. This action is not being conducted under the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

On certain vehicles, the front lower control arm ball joints may be susceptible to a loss of lubrication which can lead to corrosion, accelerated wear and possible separation from the steering knuckle. A ball joint which has separated from the knuckle, may result in a loss of vehicle directional control with minimal advanced warning. Correction: Dealers will replace both front lower ball joints and install ball joint boot heat shields on all 2002 and early 2003 model year vehicles. On later 2003 model year vehicles, the dealer will first inspect to determine if ball joint replacement is required. Any ball joints that do not pass the inspection will be replaced. All vehicles must have the ball joint boot heat shields installed.
