Recall 2014005

The issue

On certain 1500 series vehicles equipped with 4.3L and 5.3L engines, exhaust components may overheat while the vehicle is idling in cold temperatures. This could cause nearby plastic components to overheat and melt, possibly resulting in smoke and/or fire and increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the engine control module.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules de série 1500 à moteur de 4,3 L ou de 5,3 L, les pièces du système d'échappement pourraient surchauffer pendant que le moteur tourne au ralenti par temps froid. Cela pourrait faire en sorte que des composantes de plastique à proximité surchauffent et fondent, ce qui pourrait causer de la fumée ou un incendie et augmenter les risques de blessures ou de dommages à des biens matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront reprogrammer le module de commande du moteur.
