What is being recalled
Chrysler Group, LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Fiat 500e Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) vehicles manufactured September 24, 2012, through April 4, 2014. The affected vehicles have cooling plates for the Power Inverter Module (PIM) that may leak coolant into areas of the high voltage circuitry, resulting a short circuit that could cause the related service fuse to blow.
Why it is dangerous
If the service fuse blows, the vehicle would have a loss of propulsion while driving, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the PIM, free of charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P23.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 14V-235 when calling a dealer.
