Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling approximately 343 Mopar side curtain air bags due to a manufacturing defect where the seams may not be properly sealed. These air bags, specifically part numbers 68224526AJ, 68224527AG, 68224526AI, and 68224527AH, may fail to maintain enough pressure during a crash to protect occupants. Dealers will inspect and replace installed air bags for free, or repurchase any uninstalled units.
The improperly sealed seams can lead to insufficient pressure retention during a collision. This failure increases the risk of a passenger being ejected from the vehicle, which can result in serious injury or death.
You have 2 options:
Free inspection and replacement of installed air bags.
Repurchase of uninstalled air bags.
Equipment recall for service parts; fails to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 226, 'Ejection Mitigation.'
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
