• Recall 2016658 [Canada]: Airbag
  On certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, could eventually degrade the propellant contained in the driver frontal airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. As a result, if the vehicle were involved in a collision that warrants airbag deployment, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants, and the airbag assembly could be damaged, preventing proper function. These issues could increase the risk of injury. Correction: dealers will replace the driver frontal airbag inflator. Note: this is an expansion of recall 2015-228. Only ram 3500 cab chassis models are affected. As canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly, the recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk, and is expected to replace airbag inflators before their function would be affected.

• Pedestrian alert sounds investigation # DP22005

  Nhtsa received a petition on or about july 18, 2022, requesting that federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) 141 be applied to all electric and hybrid vehicles operating in the united states. The petition can be reviewed at nhtsa.Gov under odi number 11486072.Fmvss 141 establishes performance requirements for pedestrian alert sounds for motor vehicles. The standard applies to hybrid and electric vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight rating of 4,536 kg or less or are defined as low-speed vehicles. The standard became fully applicable to all such vehicles manufactured on or after march 1, 2021.The petitioner asserts that hybrid and electric vehicles to which the standard does not apply should be found to contain a safety defect. In support of the petition, the petitioner includes findings contained in a bill introduced in the house of representatives in 2009, the pedestrian safety enhancement act of 2009, h.R. 734, 111th cong. (2009). A related bill, the pedestrian safety enhancement act of 2010, became law in january 2011 (pub. L. 111-373). The petitioner requests that nhtsa require all electric and hybrid vehicles comply with fmvss 141, regardless of production date.The defect petition has been opened to evaluate the issue and determine whether to grant or deny the petition.The associated product list is not exhaustive and may contain vehicles that are equipped with pedestrian alert sounds.

• Desiccated air bag inflator rupture investigation # EA21002

  From 2000 through 2017, takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("psan") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004l. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 blomquist report at www.Nhtsa.Gov/sites/nhtsa.Gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.Pdf.Consequently, all frontal inflators using propellant 2004 that do not contain a "desiccant" (a substance that traps and holds moisture) in us vehicles are under recall. These "non-desiccated" inflators either have been or are required to be replaced.In some cases, the remedy part for these recalled inflators was, or will be, an inflator using either propellant 2004 or 2004l that does contain a desiccant. None of these "desiccated" remedy parts (which were installed in older model year vehicles) are currently under recall for a degradation concern. Certain subsets of desiccated psan inflators using propellant 2004 for use as original equipment, however, have been recalled for a degradation concern. All takata inflators produced with propellant 2004l contain desiccant, and none of these desiccated inflators using propellant 2004l are under recall for a degradation concern. There have been no reported field ruptures in any non-recalled desiccated psan inflators.It is understood that desiccants fully saturate at some threshold, at which point any additional moisture will not be captured. This means the degradation process observed in non-desiccated inflators using propellant 2004 may also occur in non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004, assuming additional moisture enters the inflator and high temperature cycling occurs. Based on available information, desiccant saturation can occur within the first five years in the worst environments, and the time required for full saturation is affected by multiple factors. While no present safety risk has been identified, further work is needed to evaluate the future risk of non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004.Three entities -- takata (now known as tk global), the independent testing coalition, and exponent -- have been studying the long-term behavior of takata desiccated psan inflators using propellant 2004l (as well as 2004) in the presence of moisture and temperature cycling. The research efforts, which include development of predictive modeling techniques and field sample analysis, are ongoing. To date, none of the researchers have identified field evidence showing that propellant 2004l is undergoing a degradation process that leads to aggressive deployment and potential rupture. However, the time in service of such inflators remains short compared to that of the inflators using propellant 2004. Further study is needed to assess the long-term safety of desiccated inflators using propellant 2004l.The office of defects investigation is opening this investigation to examine whether a safety defect related to propellant degradation exists in non-recalled desiccated psan frontal inflators manufactured by takata. This investigation will require extensive information on takata production processes and surveys of inflators in the field. Lists of recall actions that may have used desiccated psan inflators as remedy parts, as well as the makes and models originally manufactured with them, is available with the downloadable version of this document (see nhtsa.Gov/recalls?Nhtsaid=ea21002 -- note this information is subject to change/revision as the investigation proceeds). This investigation does not supersede ea15-001, which remains open.

The vehicle was parked outside. Probable transmission issue. The vehicle was in park. I started the vehicle using the remote start and the vehicle lurched forward several inches then settled back were it was. The outside temperature had been +- zero for several days. It did not repeat after being warmed up. It has never happened before. 116,000 miles.

Chrysler has a major problem with their 5.8 hemi engine. 12/16/2020 i paid $3791.07 to replace a bad camshaft and lifters on a vehicle with only 72,768 miles. After researching this problem, i find hundreds of others having the same issues! In contacting chrysler, they of course, refuse to accept any responsibility for this design flaw. Although this is not a safety issue, it is a major engine defect which needs to be addressed. I would be interested if anyone else has expressed their concerns about this problem and chrysler's complete disregard.

I had trouble with a humming noise and popping under my vehicle for a few months. The humming got so loud that we could not hear each other talk to one another at all. It popped pulling out, going around a curve, going backwards, or slowing down. The humming stopped all of a sudden after it got very loud. My aspen then fell toward the right side and smoke started shooting out from the passenger back tire when driving it. I then took it to the mechanic. He said it was very bad. The rear axle and rear axle bearing are destroyed and it will need a new rear end. This vehicle had no8 rear pinion nut recall completed on 1/13/2014. If the recall really solves the 2009 aspen problem of the rear end axle and axle bearings from being destroyed then why am i now having to get a new rear end in december of 2019. I see complaints all over the internet about this problem with the vehicle after the recall was completed so now people are paying for repairs out of pocket. A $2500+ repair for a vehicle is an awful product flaw that chrysler is not being responsible for. I have had cars for 20 years that i never had to pocket money like that for all their repairs together.

Tl* the contact owns a 2009 chrysler aspen. After refueling the vehicle, the contact began to drive and almost immediately the vehicle stalled. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The contact, who was a certified mechanic, diagnosed the vehicle. The contact also confirmed with ourisman chrysler dodge jeep ram of bowie (located at 2406 crain hwy, bowie, md 20716, (855) 822-3228) that the check valve needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the failure was more prominent after the vehicle was filled with fuel. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 189,000.

Fuel pump short circuit. After pumping gas the truck will not turn on. Short circuit from the pump to the starter. After turning the key to power on the truck all the gas spilled from underneath. I drove to my kids school at 230pm , after leaving powered on the truck to roll the window down and thats when all the gas spilled from underneath.

When traveling at different city or hwy speeds all of a sudden the brake light will turn on. Doesn't seem to affect the speed or braking of the car but if i apply the brake pedal while the light is on sometimes the car will pull to the left or right but when the light is off and i apply the brake pedal the car doesn't pull left or right. Once the light is on it stays on and sets a code and light stays on on until i stop the car and turn off the ign switch. I have had the car into the dealer many times and they have verified the code.They have tried different things but i still have the problem. This has happened many times over the last year.

Persistent dead 12v battery. Even after replacing the battery, truck will be dead within 24 hours of not being driven. All lights are off and keys removed. Battery will be dead in a less than a day after running just fine requires a 2 second jump from another vehicle to start. .
