What this recall means for you
On certain 2018 Dodge Journey vehicles, the rear camera view may not be fully visible within two seconds after reverse gear is selected. This means the camera display can lag, so the picture behind the vehicle is not available as quickly as required by federal rearview mirror safety standards.
If the full camera view is delayed and the driver does not check their surroundings before backing up, there may be an increased risk of a crash.
Chrysler will notify owners, and authorized dealers will replace the rearview mirror free of charge. Owners can contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403 with recall number U58, and should check their vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls.
