CarRecallWatch- Component
- TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS
- Problem
- Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2022 Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, and Chrysler 300 vehicles. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor battery may fail prematurely and cause the sensor to become inoperative. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
- Risk
- Inoperative TPMS sensors will not alert the driver to low tire pressure. In addition, a TPMS warning light that is already illuminated from a failed battery sensor will mask an actual tire pressure failure issue. Either of these scenarios can result in tire failure and increase the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect and replace the TPMS sensors, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 10, 2022. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is ZB5. This recall is an expansion of previous recall number 22V-504.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
What this recall means for you
The tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensor battery in these vehicles may fail early and make the sensor stop working. When a sensor is inoperative, the car will not warn you about low tire pressure. A warning light already on because of a dead sensor can also hide a real tire pressure problem. Either case can lead to tire failure and raise the risk of a crash.
To fix this, dealers will inspect the TPMS sensors and replace them where needed, at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed December 10, 2022. You can also contact FCA US LLC at 1-800-853-1403 and reference recall number ZB5. This recall expands an earlier recall, 22V-504.
