Chrysler has had NHTSA campaign number: 14V635000 component(s): Engine and engine cooling, fuel system, diesel in effect since October 2014. My truck has this recall problem. I continually have engine code P2609 active. I have contacted Chrysler about this and all they will say is that the repair parts are not available. My truck is still under warranty but Chrysler will not repair the truck. Along with the "check engine light", I have a diesel fuel smell entering the passenger compartment at various times. Chrysler will give me no date as to when they will repair this problem. The local dealers say they can do nothing until Chrysler get the repair parts needed. It seems logical that if Chrysler has issued a warranty on a vehicle then they should be able to repair the vehicle.
