EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS
- The defect
- Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Dodge Hornet and Alfa Romeo Tonale vehicles. The maximum vehicle capacity weight value on the tire placard label is incorrect. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."
- What it can cause
- A vehicle with an incorrect maximum capacity weight value may be overloaded, which can increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will add an overlay label to the tire placard information, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 28, 2024. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is 28B.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 36,094 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 87% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2023 to 2024, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Dodge vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 17 times before this, most recently in December 2017 as 17V824000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 2 of the 4 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 47 complaints with NHTSA, 4 of them before this campaign was filed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 6 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V510000 (seat belts), 25V246000 (back over prevention), 24V752000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 24V209000 (equipment).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) (Stellantis) with NHTSA on March 5, 2024 as campaign 24V175000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
