Fiat-Chrysler Recalls Dodge Charger for Jack Failures
Fiat-Chrysler is handing out 441,578 sets of wheel chocks for Dodge Charger owners to prevent their cars from coming off jacks, the company said Wednesday.
When propping a 2011?2016 Charger on the supplied jack, the vehicle’s body may flex enough so that the jack can slip off the mounts when tire chocks aren’t used. The company knows of three injuries, “all minor,” it said. As in many owner’s manuals, the Charger’s states that two wheel chocks should be placed diagonally opposite the jacked tire to stabilize the car, which doesn’t come factory-equipped with chocks. FCA said the Challenger and Chrysler 300, which share the Charger’s platform, are not affected because their body structure is substantially different.
