Safety risk: sudden and unexpected movement of the car could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective actions: the company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to install a new transmission shift cable adjuster.

• Air bag acu electrical overstress investigation # EA19001

  The office of defects investigation (odi) is expanding the investigation to include the equipment supplier and vehicle manufacturers (oems) using this unit.The investigation focuses on acus manufactured by trw, now zf-trw (zf) , the tier-one supplier to hyundai and kia and the other affected oems.The acu senses a vehicle crash to determine whether air bag deployment is required, and if so, deploys the appropriate air bags and other supplemental restraints.Zf supplied subject acus to six oems: fca, honda, hyundai, kia, mitsubishi and toyota.Internal to the acu is an electronic component (an application specific integrated circuit, or asic) that monitors signals from crash sensors.A failure of the asic may prevent deployment of the required air bags and devices, or may otherwise affect the proper operation of the acu.The acu is located in the passenger compartment, and electrical wiring connects the asic to sensors located at the front of the vehicle.Odi’s current understanding is that a crash event may, in and of itself, produce harmful signals on the sensor wiring capable of damaging the asic, although the probability of this occurring appears to be low.While the acu incorporates electrical circuitry intended to protect the asic from harmful signals, the level and effectiveness of the protective circuitry varies by oem customer.During pe18-003, hyundai and kia filed recalls (18v-137 and 18v-363 respectively) to address a defect that could result in acu disablement and non-deployments.According to the filings, the disablement occurs in certain types of frontal crash events.Both filings discussed a condition known as electrical overstress (eos) that affected the subject asic and was likely caused by electrical signals that entered the acu via sensor wiring.The recalled vehicles used acus that had the lowest levels of asic protection while non-recalled hyundai and kia products using subject acus had higher levels of protection.Odi has not identified any eos failures in the non-recalled kia and hyundai populations.In september 2016, fca filed recall 16v-668 for certain model year (my) 2010 to 2014 chrysler, dodge and jeep products also manufactured with the subject acu.In that filing, fca also discussed an eos condition that resulted in a failure of the subject asic, which caused air bag non-deployment. Fca noted that the defect condition had only been observed in vehicles equipped with sensor harnessing routed across the front of the vehicle.Other fca vehicles that also used the subject acu, but not the cross-car harnessing, had not experienced eos failures, despite similar time in service. The recalled fca vehicles used a mid-level form of asic protection.Other fca vehicles that did not use cross car wiring, or used higher levels of asic protection, have not been recalled.Odi has not identified any eos failures in the non-recalled fca population.Recently, odi has identified two substantial frontal crash events (one fatal) involving toyota products where eos is suspected as the likely cause of the non-deployments.The crashes involved a my 2018 and a my 2019 corolla equipped with the subject acu that incorporated higher levels of asic protection.Additionally, both acus were found to be non-communicative (meaning the acu could not be read with an event data recorder) after the crash, a condition found in other cases where eos occurred with other oems.No other eos events have been identified for other toyota products (including corolla models that used the subject acu since my 2011), or for the honda and mitsubishi vehicles that use the subject acu.Odi plans to evaluate the susceptibility of the subject acu designs to electrical signals, as well as other vehicle factors that can either lead to, or reduce the likelihood of, an eos event.Additionally, odi will evaluate whether an unreasonable risk exists that requires further field action.

Vehicle was acting a little strange on a trip to the store. I saw smoke coming from under the hood when i pulled into the parking spot. Upon this happening the car would not go back into gear. Had it towed to a dealership and was informed of the s34 recall on the clutch. The spring had failed causing the clutch to fail. The recall fix was completed and when i picked my car up i noticed it was very hard to shift into gears-but thought it was due to the new clutch. I went to the store and when i went to leave it grinded so loud when i put it in reverse. I waited so i could pull forward instead. I took it back to the dealership and was told that my transmission was going out but was instructed on how to just push it into gear through the grinding until i could get a new transmission. That the recall had nothing to do with the transmission issue. I found this absolutely unacceptable and opened a case with fiat-who is still trying to tell me that the two issues have nothing to do with each other. I am attaching documentation i have found that shows fca stating that the recall can cause excessive clutch travel and that over time cause damage to the transmission-limiting a driver's ability to change gears!!!!! I am getting nowhere with them and basically have a hunk of metal now.

Clutch petal tranmission noise when shifting indicating damage it may be the same part that was recalled but i purchased the vehicle after recall period closed for work done on vehicle. I need to know is there any type of extension or waiver that can be given to fix issue.

Cel alert: P0071 obd ii error ambient air temperature. The forums are full of people trying to find out how to fix this. There is a faulty thermostat in the passenger side mirror that requires the entire mirror to be ( $117 from auto zone ) a 25 thermostat is the only thing that should actually need replacement
