2016 Ram Promaster City

Defect. Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling various Dodge, Chrysler, and RAM vehicles equipped with Kidde Plastic-Handle or Push Button 'Pindicator' Fire Extinguishers. A list of the affected trailer models is available at: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17V824-0103.pdf. These extinguishers may become clogged, preventing the extinguisher from discharging as expected or requiring excessive force to activate the extinguisher. Additionally, in certain models, the nozzle may detach from the valve assembly with enough force that it could cause injury and also render the product inoperable. For a full list of the affected fire extinguisher models visit: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2017/RMISC-17E062-5427.pdf

Risk. If the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury in the event of a fire.

Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403 or Kidde customer service service toll-free at 1-855-262-3540, or online at www.kidde.com and click on "Product Safety Recall" for more information.

Defect. Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2015-2017 RAM ProMaster City vehicles. These vehicles have incorrect information on the tire placard including incorrect vehicle capacity weight, total number of occupants, tire pressure and/or "None" designation for the spare tire size when a full size spare tire is present. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

Risk. The incorrect tire placard can cause the operator to exceed the vehicle's weight capacity, or inflate the tires to an incorrect pressure, affecting vehicle handling, which can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the incorrect tire placard with a corrected one, free of charge. The recall began November 17, 2017. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is T62.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Assoc. Equipment."

Risk. Trailer brake lights that are inoperative can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Chrysler will mail letters to owners to try to notify the purchasers of the modules, and dealers will replace the Trailer Tow Light Control Modules, free of charge.

VEHICLE UNEXPECTEDLY SHUTOFF AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, SERVICE HILL ASSIST, ABS, AIRBAG, CHECK ENGINE AND SERVICE TRANSMISSION MESSAGES COINCIDED WITH ISSUE. VEHICLE SUDDENLY WENT INTO 'LIMP' MODE WHILE ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC. VEHICLE WOULD NOT STAY IN GEAR.

RADIATOR FAN BEGAN TO SMOKE WHILE ENGINE IDLE. RADIATOR FAN BECAME INOPERATIVE, AND ENGINE OVERHEATING SOON FOLLOWED. RADIATOR AND FAN WERE DAMAGED, AND HAD TO BE REPLACED.

HEADING SOUTHBOUND ON HWY 37 THE PEDDLE FELL OFF.. VEHICLE DECELERATED AND I STEERED TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY .. LUCKY CAUSE TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY AND IT WAS DARK BUT GLAD IT DIDN'T GET STUCK IN ACCELERATION IT STOPPED AND DIDN'T MOVE AGAIN.. THANKFUL FOR THE END RESULT OF THIS DEFECT.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN SOUTHBOUND ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE GAS PEDDLE SEEMED TO DISAPPEAR UNDER MY FOOT AND WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR.AS THE CAR SLOWED DOWN I REALIZED THE PEDDLE WAS NEXT TO MY FOOT ON THE FLOOR.. IT HAD FALLEN OFF.. BROKEN AT THE NECK, THE BASE OF THE PEDDLE . COMPLETELY OFF.

CODE P0481 COOLING FAN FAILURE. OVERHEATS DURING IDOL ONLY. LESS THAN 30,000 MI.

THE DASH LIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO EASILY READ THE INFORMATION. IF YOU WEAR SUNGLASSES, YOU MUST REMOVE YOUR SUNGLASSES IN ORDER TO ATTEMPT TO READ THE SPEEDOMETER OR OTHER INFORMATION, BECAUSE IT IS TOO DIM. THE DASH IS DIMLY LIT AND DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH CONTRAST. WHEN IT IS OVERCAST, THE DASH IS BARELY READABLE. WHEN IT IS SUNNY OR BRIGHT OUTSIDE, THE DASH IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE. THIS IS DANGEROUS, BECAUSE IT TAKES THE DRIVER'S EYES OFF OF THE ROAD FOR TOO LONG. HAVING THE DIMMER SWITCH SET TO FULL BRIGHT DOES NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE. WE HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER ABOUT THIS ISSUE, AND THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED ON 5/18/17. ATTACHED ARE A PICTURE OF THE DASH WHEN IT IS SUNNY AND A PICTURE WHEN IT IS CLOUDY.

EXPERIENCES DANGEROUS STALLING AND LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER TO ENGINE DURING DRIVING. THIS CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THIS IS SPECIFICALLY A SYMPTOM OF ONE OF THE MANY RECALLS SUPPOSEDLY PERFORMED ON THIS VEHICLE ALREADY. I BELIEVE THE RECALL REPAIR PREVIOUSLY WAS NOT COMPLETED PROPERLY BECAUSE I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS 10 TIMES IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS.

COOLING FAN AND RELAY BLEW AT 46000 MILES. COOLING FAN BEARINGS WENT AND SEIZED, COOLING FAN RELAY NO GOOD. DEALER WOULD NOT WARRANTY BECAUSE IT WAS OVER 36000 MILES. FROM WHAT I READ ON FORUMS, THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VAN AND THEY ARE AWARE OF IT, YET THEY HAVE NOT RECALLED ANY. I FIRST DISCOVERED THIS ISSUE WHILE IDLING IN TRAFFIC. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WEREN'T MUCH HELP, I WEEK LATER THE FAN SEIZED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIKE CAME ON PUSHING A CODE FOR THE FAN 2 CONTROL SYSTEM.

BAD FAN CONTROL RELAY, CAUSES THE VAN TO OVERHEAT AND BLOWS FUSES ALL WHILE MOVING.

COOLING FAN FAILURE, COOLING FAN DOES NOT OPERATE AFTER VEHICLES WATER TEMP GETS HIGH, VEHICLE WILL OVERHEAT IF STATIONARY IE SITTING IN TRAFFIC 38,000 MILES WHEN PROBLEM STARTED REPLACE COOLING FAN RELAY ONCE ALREADY PROBLEM NOT CORRECTED
