Dealer Service Instructions for:

Equipment Safety Recall U83
NHTSA 18E-053
Reprogram Powertrain Control Module

 

Remedy Available 

MOPAReBay logo high performance Powertrain Control Module (PCM) included in the Demon Crate.  This PCM is intended for use with 2018 Model Year (LA) DodgeeBay logo ChallengereBay logo SRT Demon vehicles.

IMPORTANT: Some of the involved equipment may be in dealer inventory.  Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on this equipment before retail delivery. 

 

Subject

The Demon Crate includes a MOPAReBay logo high performance Powertrain Control Module (PCM).  The fault handling strategy of this PCM software does not remove positive torque requests from the engine controller if the CAN-C bus stops communicating while the cruise control is requesting positive torque.  In the instance of a short in the vehicle causing the CAN-C bus to stop communicating while the cruise control is active and the vehicle speed is below the set speed such that the cruise control system is requesting positive torque at the exact moment of the short, it is possible for a positive torque request to be locked on the PCM which may result in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.  If the driver does not shift to neutral or apply the brakes to stop the vehicle this condition can cause a vehicle crash without warning.

 

Repair

Inspect the software level of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and if necessary, reprogram the PCM.

 

Parts Information

No parts are required to perform this service procedure.

 

Parts Return

No parts return required for this campaign.

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL

Reprogram Powertrain Control Module

 

Dear [Name],

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. 

FCAeBay logo has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain MOPAReBay logo high performance Powertrain Control Modules (PCM) included in the Demon Crate.  This PCM is intended for use with 2018 Model Year DodgeeBay logo ChallengereBay logo SRT Demon vehicles.

It is extremely important to take steps now to repair your vehicle to ensure the safety of you and your passengers.

 

WHY DOES MY DEMON CRATE PCM NEED REPAIR?

FCAeBay logo records indicate that you may have purchased a Demon Crate for your vehicle [1].  The Demon Crate includes a MOPAReBay logo high performance Powertrain Control Module (PCM) which you may have installed in your vehicle.  The fault handling strategy of this PCM software does not remove positive torque requests from the engine controller if the CAN-C bus stops communicating while the cruise control is requesting positive torque.  In the instance of a short in the vehicle causing the CAN-C bus to stop communicating while the cruise control is active and the vehicle speed is below the set speed such that the cruise control system is requesting positive torque at the exact moment of the short, it is possible for a positive torque request to be locked on the PCM which may result in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.  If the driver does not shift to neutral or apply the brakes to stop the vehicle this condition can cause a vehicle crash without warning.

 

HOW DO I RESOLVE THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE? 

Please bring your Demon Crate PCM and the vehicle to your dealer for remedy.
Your vehicleโ€™s original PCM is covered by Safety Recall U60 / NHTSA 18V-332.

 

FCAeBay logo will repair your vehicle [2] free of charge (parts and labor).  To do this, your dealer will inspect the software level of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and if necessary, reprogram the PCM.  No other Demon Crate components require removal, installation, or reinstallation to accommodate the PCM reprogramming operation. In addition, your dealer will require your vehicle for proper check-in, preparation, and check-out during your visit.  Your time is important to us; please be aware that these steps may require more time.  The estimated repair time is one hour.  We recommend that you schedule a service appointment to minimize your inconvenience.  Please bring this letter with you to your dealership.

 

Do not use cruise control on your vehicle until your PCM has been remedied.
