Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling approximately 183 Mopar brand rear brake hoses because they were manufactured with an internal diameter that is too small. This defect involves right rear brake hoses (part numbers 68371722AA and 68371722AB) and left rear brake hoses (part number 68371723AB). A hose with a restricted diameter can rupture under pressure, leading to a sudden loss of brake fluid and stopping power. Dealers will replace the affected hoses free of charge, or inspect the production dates on uninstalled hoses to determine if a replacement is needed.
If the brake hose ruptures, the vehicle will experience a significant loss of braking ability. This occurs because the pressurized hydraulic fluid required to engage the brakes escapes, which can lead to a crash without warning.
Free replacement of the affected brake hose.
