Plain-English summary
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Ram ProMaster City vans manufactured between September 26, 2014, and March 5, 2016. The recall involves a low-voltage electrical harness connector located by the front driver seat that may be susceptible to water intrusion and corrosion.
Corrosion of this connector may result in a loss of communication to the Transmission Control Module (TCM). This can cause the transmission to unexpectedly shift into and stay in neutral without warning the next time the vehicle stops. An unintended shift into neutral prevents the vehicle from being moved, and if the driver turns off the engine, they will be unable to restart it. Both scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will relocate the harness connector to under the instrument panel free of charge. The recall began on June 3, 2016. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
