What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a safety system failure that increases the risk of a vehicle crash, but the source text does not report any specific injuries or fatalities, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Chrysler Group LLC is recalling certain model year 2015 Dodge Dart Aero vehicles manufactured between August 24, 2014, and October 28, 2014. The affected vehicles were built with a premium instrument cluster and a Lowline Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).

The defect involves the TPMS warning light, which may fail to illuminate when low tire pressure is detected. This failure means the vehicle does not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 138. Without the warning light, owners are not notified of improperly inflated tires, which can lead to a complete loss of tire pressure and an increased risk of a vehicle crash.

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reconfigure the vehicles from a lowline TPMS to a highline TPMS free of charge. The recall began on January 27, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
