Safety recall campaigns filed with NHTSA that cover this model year

Recalls apply to specific vehicles, not to every vehicle of a model year. Check your VIN with NHTSA or your manufacturer's dealer to confirm whether a recall affects your vehicle.

Recall campaignsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

Jun 15, 2015
2,461 units potentially affected
The defect: Braun Corporation (Braun) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Braun-modified Chrysler and Dodge vehicles manufactured December 19, 2012, to May 5, 2015. The affected vehicles have certification labels that may have incorrect gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) information, and front and rear gross axle weight rating (GAWR) information printed on the Certification labels. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
The risk: If the operator loads the vehicle based on information on the Certification label, the operator may overload the vehicle, adversely affecting the vehicle handling and braking and increasing the risk of crash.
The remedy: Braun will notify owners, and dealers will install a corrected certification label, free of charge. The recall began on August 6, 2015. Owners may contact Braun customer service at 1-800-488-0359.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
