AIR BAGS Safety Recalls

High Priority #14V770000 Plain English
Component

AIR BAGS

Manufacturer
Chrysler Group LLC
What Happened
The passenger air bag in your vehicle is the safety system that deploys in a crash to protect you. In certain older models, the inflator that makes the air bag work could rupture if it's exposed to high humidity, causing metal fragments to fly towards you.
Risk if Unfixed
If the air bag inflator ruptures during a crash, sharp metal pieces could hit you or your passengers, leading to serious injury or even death.
Free Fix
Your Chrysler dealer will replace the faulty air bag inflator with a new one, free of charge. You should contact your dealer now to confirm repair availability and schedule the fix, as letters were scheduled to be mailed on December 5, 2014, for vehicles in specific regions and on February 3, 2015, for others.
