WHY DOES MY VEHICLE NEED REPAIRS?
The trailer tow module on your vehicle [1] may experience a loss of trailer lighting and trailer
brakes. The trailer turn signal will not flash when the vehicle turn signal lever is actuated and
the trailer stop lights will not be activated upon application of the vehicle service brakes. In
addition, if equipped, the trailer brakes will not function. Trailer lighting that is not
illuminated may result in an approaching vehicle being unaware of the change of direction
or speed of the vehicle and trailer which may cause a vehicle crash without prior warning.
The loss of trailer brakes can also cause a vehicle crash without a prior warning.
HOW DO I RESOLVE THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE?
FCA
US LLC will repair your vehicle [2] free of charge (parts and labor). To do this, your dealer
will replace the trailer tow module. The estimated repair time is one hour. In addition, your
dealer will require your vehicle for proper check-in, preparation, and check-out during your
visit, which may require more time. Your time is important to us, so we recommend that you
schedule a service appointment to minimize your inconvenience. Ask your dealer for alternate
transportation options while your vehicle is in service. Please bring this letter with you to your
dealership.
