Chrysler Recall #
F18
NHTSA Campaign #
06V149000
Summary
Certain passenger vehicles equipped with 2.7 liter engines and mk25E braking systems may exhibit inadequate clearance between the rear brake tubes and the exhaust gas recirculation tube. Contact between the brake tubes and exhaust gas recirculation tube over an extended period of time may cause the brake tubes to wear through and cause a brake fluid leak.
Actions
Dealers will inspect the rear brake tubes for damage and replace them free of charge. A clip will also be installed to secure the brake tubes to the right front shock tower to maintain proper clearance to the exhaust gas recirculation tube. The recall began on June 26, 2006. Owners may contact DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
