What Happened
Your vehicle's Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) may not be working correctly, which means it won't alert you if a tire loses air pressure.
Risk if Unfixed
If the TPMS light comes on for no reason, you might not know if a tire is actually losing air, which could lead to a tire blowout and a crash.
Free Fix
Chrysler will reprogram the TPMS module for free, and you'll be notified by mail when the repair is ready. You can also call 1-800-853-1403 for more information and the dealer's recall number is P63.

Original — What Happened
Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chrysler Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan vehicles manufactured March 20, 2014, to April 22, 2014, and 2014 Jeep Wrangler vehicles manufactured March 21, 2014, to April 22, 2014. Due to a software error, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) may fail to learn the locations of the individual sensors while the vehicle is being driven. As a result, the low tire pressure warning light will illuminate, despite the the tire pressures being within specification. Should one of the tires lose air pressure, the driver would not be notified of the change in air pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
Original — Risk if Unfixed
If the TPMS light illuminates because the sensors cannot be located, it could mask an actual low tire pressure condition, possibly resulting in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
Original — Remedy
Chrysler has notified owners, and dealers will reprogram the TPMS module, free of charge. The recall began on October 23, 2014. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P63.
