NHTSA Campaign 19V051000

VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM

Issued by Chrysler (FCA US LLC) · Reported Jan 24, 2019 · 15 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2019 RAM 1500 vehicles equipped with a 12" touchscreen display and a base-level heating, ventilation and air conditioning ("HVAC") system. Vehicles with this combination do not have a functioning windshield defrosting and defogging system. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 103, "Windshield defrosting and defogging systems."

Consequence

The lack of a functioning windshield defrosting and defogging system may decrease the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of crash.

Remedy

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will repurchase the affected vehicles. The recall began March 7, 2019. Owners may contact FCA US customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is V12.
