Inspect the bolts and bolt holes for any signs of thread loss then DISCARD the bolts (Figure 18). THREAD LOSS • If bolt holes do not show signs of thread loss, proceed to Step 29. • If bolt holes show signs of thread loss, continue with Step 27. • If a bolt is broken off in the hole, proceed to Step 28. Figure 18 – Inspect for Thread Loss Emissions Recall U90 – Catalyst Efficiency Page 17 Service Procedure [Continued] 27.

Reprogram the ECM and TCM with the Latest Software NOTE: The wiTECH scan tool must be used to perform this recall. If the reprogramming flash for the PCM or TCM is aborted or interrupted, repeat the procedure. CAUTION: Both the PCM and TCM software must be at the latest software calibration level after completing this recall. Failure to do so may result in undesirable transmission shift quality. First the PCM must be reprogrammed; second the TCM must be programmed. NOTE: (PF) only, TCM software is not coordinated to PCM software, so TCM software flash is not applicable to (PF) vehicles for this campaign. 1. Open the hood and install a battery charger. Verify that the charging rate provides 13.0 to 13.5 volts. Do not allow the charger to time out during the flash process. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge. NOTE: Use an accurate stand-alone voltmeter. The battery charger volt meter may not be sufficiently accurate. Voltages outside of the specified range will cause an unsuccessful flash. If voltage reading is too high, apply an electrical load by activating the park or headlamps and/or HVAC blower motor to lower the voltage. 2. Connect the wiTECH MicroPod II to the vehicle data link connector. 3. Place the ignition in the “RUN” position. 4. Open the wiTECH 2.0 website. 5.

Dealer Notification To view this notification on DealerCONNECT, select “Global Recall System” on the Service tab, then click on the description of this notification. Owner Notification and Service Scheduling All involved vehicle owners known to FCA are being notified of the service requirement by first class mail. They are requested to schedule appointments for this service with their dealers. A generic copy of the owner letter is attached. Emissions Recall U90 – Catalyst Efficiency Page 35 Vehicle Lists, Global Recall System, VIP and Dealer Follow Up All involved vehicles have been entered into the DealerCONNECT Global Recall System (GRS) and Vehicle Information Plus (VIP) for dealer inquiry as needed. GRS provides involved dealers with an updated VIN list of their incomplete vehicles. The owner’s name, address and phone number are listed if known. Completed vehicles are removed from GRS within several days of repair claim submission. To use this system, click on the “Service” tab and then click on “Global Recall System.” Your dealer’s VIN list for each recall displayed can be sorted by: those vehicles that were unsold at recall launch, those with a phone number, city, zip code, or VIN sequence. Dealers must perform this repair on all unsold vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also use the VIN list to follow up with all owners to schedule appointments for this repair. Recall VIN lists may contain confidential, restricted owner name and address information that was obtained from the Department of Motor Vehicles of various states.

FCA will repair your vehicle [2] free of charge (parts and labor). To do this, your dealer will reprogram the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and Transmission Control Module (TCM) with the latest software. In addition, your dealer will install a new catalyst. The estimated repair time is 2 hours. In addition, your dealer will require your vehicle for proper check-in, preparation, and check-out during your visit, which may require more time. Your time is important to us, so we recommend that you schedule a service appointment to minimize your inconvenience. Please bring this letter with you to your dealership. TO SCHEDULE YOUR FREE REPAIR, CALL YOUR CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP OR RAM DEALER TODAY CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS The State of California requires the completion of emission recall repairs prior to vehicle registration renewal. Your dealer will provide you with a Vehicle Emission Recall Proof of Correction Form after the Emission Recall service is performed. Be sure to save this form since the California Department of Motor Vehicles may require that you supply it as proof that the Emission Recall has been performed. In order to ensure your full protection under the emissions warranty provisions, it is recommended that you have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. Failure to do so could be determined as lack of proper maintenance of your vehicle.
