• 2007 Sebring

Chrysler announced the recall of 62,400 units of its 2007 model year vehicles due to faulty Electronic Control System Unit affecting the vehicles’ braking system. The affected models included the Chrysler Sebring, Chrysler 300, Jeep Commander, Jeep Compass, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Liberty, Jeep Wrangler, Dodge Nitro, Dodge Magnum, Dodge Charger and Dodge Caliber.

The faulty Electronic Control system unit could cause the warning lamp at the instrument panel to light up followed by the failure of the vehicle’s anti-lock brake system, traction control and speedometer functions.

Chrysler has notified all owners of the affected models to immediately bring in their vehicles to a certified dealer for inspection once the warning lamp at the instrument panel is alighted. Repair includes an inspection and reprogramming of the ABS Electronic Control unit.

To date, no injuries or accidents have been reported.
