The short version
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) reported a problem with the hydraulic power assist hose, piping, and connections. Here is what owners need to know.
During assembly, the power steering hose retention clamp may have been installed at an incorrect location, resulting in the detachment of the low pressure return hose.
If the power steering fluid return hose detaches, it would leak fluid and increase the risk of a fire.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the return power steering hose clamp, repositioning the clamp as necessary, free of charge.
