MANUFACTURER: Chrysler LLC
MFR'S REPORT DATE: February 03, 2009
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V047000
NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: N/A
COMPONENT: Fuel System, Other: Storage: Fuel Gauge System
POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED: 92
SUMMARY:
Chrysler is recalling 92 M/Y 2009 Sebring and Dodge Avenger passenger vehicles equipped with 2.4L engines. A compatibility issue between the
instrument cluster software and fuel pump module can result in the fuel gauge overstating the actual fuel tank level. As a result, the vehicle may run out
of fuel when the gauge indicates that there is still fuel remaining in the tank.
CONSEQUENCE:
This could cause a crash without warning.
REMEDY:
Dealers will replace the fuel pump module free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during February 2009. Owners may contact Chrysler at
1-800-853-1403.
