What happened

Chrysler is recalling certain 2014-2015 Jeep Cherokee and 2015 Chrysler 200, Jeep Renegade, RAM ProMaster vehicles, as well as 2016 Fiat 500X vehicles equipped with 9-speed automatic transmissions. The transmission sensor clusters may have insufficient crimps in the transmission wire harness, which could cause the transmission to unexpectedly shift to neutral, increasing the risk of a crash.

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the Powertrain Control Module and Transmission Control Module and replace the transaxle range sensor wire harness if necessary, all free of charge. The recall began on November 7, 2016. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403, and Chrysler's recall number is S55.
