NHTSA Campaign 17V371000

HYBRID PROPULSION SYSTEM: INVERTER

Issued by Chrysler (FCA US LLC) · Reported Jun 9, 2017 · 1,375 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid Electric vehicles (PHEV). The affected vehicles have diodes in the Power Inverter Module ("PIM") that may fail due to an overvoltage condition. If the diodes fail, the vehicle will not move under its own power.

Consequence

A vehicle that suddenly cannot be driven, increases the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the Powertrain Control Module, Battery Pack Control Module, On Board Charging Module, and PIM, free of charge. The PIM will be replaced as necessary. The recall began on September 14, 2017. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is T34.
