SEPTEMBER
2008 -- Chrysler is
recalling 712 MY 2009
Sebring, Dodge Caliber,
Avenger, Journey, Jeep
Patriot, and Compass
vehicles. A new adhesive
used in the power train
control module (PCM)
manufacturing process
can cause the printed
circuit board to break.
This can cause the
engine to stall and
cause a crash without
warning. Dealers will
replace the PCM free of
charge. The recall is
expected to begin during
November 2008.
