Recall 01V312000: Frame Repair Kit Installation



DEFECT: Certain passenger vehicles used extensively in track types of racing events and subjected to aggressive driving conditions could experience cracks at the welds of the rear differential mounting bracket. The cracks could eventually lead to metal fatigue and dislodging of the differential mounting bracket from the frame of the vehicle. Separation of the differential mounting bracket could result in loss of vehicle control.

REMEDY: All affected vehicles will have a field repair kit installed. Vehicles exhibiting cracks will require additional weld repair prior to installation of the kit. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contactDaimlerChryslerr at 1-800-853-1403.
