What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect where safety systems (air bags, pretensioners, ESC) may fail to deploy or function, significantly increasing the risk of injury in a crash, which aligns with the 'Severe' criteria for structural vehicle defects.

Plain-English summary

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain Mopar Occupant Restraint Controller Modules with part numbers 68599746AD, 68599750AE, and 68599752AE. This recall addresses a software error in the occupant restraint control module that may cause the driver's side air bag and/or seat belt pretensioner not to deploy in a crash.
