What this recall means for you
Some vehicles may have radio software that can prevent the rearview camera image from appearing on the display. Without the camera image, the driver has reduced visibility behind the vehicle, which increases the risk of a crash. The affected vehicles do not meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 111, which covers rear visibility.
The remedy is a free software update to the radio. Dealers will perform the update, or it will be delivered over the air (OTA) without a dealer visit. Owner notification letters were mailed beginning July 9, 2024.
If you own an affected vehicle, check your VIN for open recalls and contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403 for more information. The repair is free at an authorized dealer.
