Chrysler (China) Recalls 1060 Imported Wrangler 4xe Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles Due to Fuel Filler Cap Issues

TapTechNews July 5th news, TapTechNews learned from the State Administration for Market Regulation that Chrysler (China) Automobile Sales Co., Ltd., in accordance with the requirements of the Regulations on the Recall of Defective Auto Products, Implementation Measures of the Regulations on the Recall of Defective Auto Products, and Regulations on the Recall of Motor Vehicle Emissions, filed a recall plan with the State Administration for Market Regulation. It was decided to recall a total of 1060 imported Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid vehicles produced during the period from June 1, 2021 to October 6, 2021 as of now.

For some vehicles within the scope of this recall, due to manufacturing reasons, the size of the fuel filler cap is oversized, resulting in inadequate sealing of the fuel filler cap, which may generate excessive fuel vapor emissions, and there is an unreasonable emission risk.

In this recall activity, it is carried out under the circumstances that the State Administration for Market Regulation initiates a defect investigation. Affected by the investigation, Chrysler (China) Automobile Sales Co., Ltd. will freely replace the fuel filler cap with a qualified size and a new fuel filler pipe for the vehicles within the scope of the recall to ensure complete sealing of the fuel filler port and eliminate the unreasonable emission risk.
