What this recall means for you
Some front axle halfshafts may have been incorrectly assembled, so the shaft may not be properly secured to the constant-velocity (CV) joint. If the axle shaft disconnects from the CV joint, the vehicle can lose drive power or move while in Park, which may increase the risk of a crash.
The repair is free. Dealers will replace the left or right front halfshaft assembly at no charge. Owners will be notified by mail, but you can also check whether your vehicle is affected by entering your VIN on the NHTSA recall lookup site or on Chrysler's website.
If you have questions, contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403 and reference recall number U80.
