Consequence:
As a result, the seat belt may not properly restrain the occupant during certain crash conditions, which can increase the risk of injury.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect the retractor assemblies and any seat belt assembly that does not have the stake will be replaced. owner notification began on february 23, 2004. owners should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.

Affected:

Campaign:
06E022000 on 03/12/2006
Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic
Affected:
7,440
Defect:
Certain aftermarket brake hydraulic master cylinders sold as replacement brake cylinders for certain ford, daimlerchrysler, and jeep passenger vehicles. these brake cylinders were sold under the brand names of napa, raybestos, aimco, ac delco, carquest, bendix, and wagner. only products that were manufactured from july 27, 2005 through january 17, 2006 (date codes 0529 through 0602) are subject to this recall. when subject to very cold temperatures, an internal seal in the master cylinder could lose flexibility and may cause brake fluid to leak.
Consequence:
Loss of brake fluid can lead to a decrease in brake line pressure and an increase in stopping distance, which can result in a vehicle crash.
Correction:
Affinia (brake parts, inc.) will replace the subject brake hydraulic master cylinders free of charge. the recall began on march 20, 2006. owners can contact affina group customer service at 1-800-323-0354.

Component:
Air bags:frontal:sensor/control module
Manufactured:
04/23/2003 - 02/01/2005
Affected:
270,958
Defect:
Certain minivans are being recalled that were originally sold in or currently registered in the 27 states plus the district of columbia that use greater amounts of salt for winter road deicing. the up-front (uf) air bag sensors that contain brass bushings installed in these vehicles may corrode and crack allowing water to enter the sensor. these sensors provide enhanced air bag performance in certain types of frontal crashes.
Consequence:
in one of these crashes, with one or both of the vehicle's uf sensors inoperative, the occupants will not benefit from the enhanced air bag protection that these sensors would provide.
Correction:
For vehicles registered in the recall states, dealers will replace the original uf air bag sensors with ones with greater corrosion resistance. vehicles registered in other states will obtain a lifetime free replacement of any uf sensor that fails. the campaign began on july 2, 2007. owners may contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.

Consequence:
If the front crash sensors become inoperative, the driver is immediately alerted by illumination of the airbag warning light and the vehicle should be promptly serviced. until the vehicle is repaired, the airbags may not provide the enhanced protection in the event of a crash.
Correction:
Chrysler will replace the front airbag sensors with a new design. this service will be performed free of charge. the safety improvement campaign will begin during june 2010. owners may contact chrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
