Dealer Service Instructions for:

Safety Recall VB1 / NHTSA 19V-757 Diesel EGR Cooler

 

NOTE: Added 2017 – 2019 Model Years to campaign

 

The Remedy is Available

2014 – 2019 (DS) Ram 1500 Pickup

 

NOTE:  This recall applies only to the above vehicles equipped with a 3.0L Eco Diesel Engine (sales code EXF).

NOTE:  Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall.

 

IMPORTANT:  Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory.  Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery.  Dealers should also consider this requirement to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for service.  Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.

 

Subject

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler on about 158,241 of the above vehicles may be susceptible to thermal fatigue.  Thermal fatigue may cause the cooler to crack internally over time.  An EGR cooler with an internal crack will introduce pre-heated, vaporized coolant to the EGR system while the engine is running. In certain circumstances, this mixture interacts with other hydrocarbons and air in the system, potentially resulting in combustion within the intake manifold, which may lead to a vehicle fire.  A vehicle fire may increase the risk of injury to occupants and persons outside of the vehicle, as well as property damage.

 

Repair

Replace the EGR cooler assembly ONLY. If Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is illuminated, inspect vehicle for either or both P0299 and P2D2F DTCs.  If present, perform section B. Intake Manifold Inspection and Pressure Test. Replace Intake Manifold, if perforation is identified using test procedure.

NOTE: If a vehicle had a new Mopar provided replacement engine please inspect for a white or yellow mark on the front fuel pump cover (Figure Below). If a yellow or white mark is present it’s an indication the updated EGR cooler has been installed, NO EGR cooler replacement is necessary.

 

Alternate Transportation

Dealers should attempt to minimize customer inconvenience by placing the owner in a loaner vehicle if the vehicle must be held overnight.

Figure 44 – Coolant Adjustment Chart

 

NOTE:  Evacuating or purging air from the cooling system involves the use of a pressurized air operated vacuum generator. The vacuum created allows for a quick and complete coolant refilling while removing any airlocks present in the system components. 

 

WARNING:  Antifreeze is an ethylene glycol base coolant and is harmful if swallowed or inhaled. If swallowed, drink two glasses of water and induce vomiting. If inhaled, move to fresh air area. Seek medical attention immediately. Do not store in open or unmarked containers. Wash skin and clothing thoroughly after coming in contact with ethylene glycol. Keep out of reach of children. Dispose of glycol based coolant properly. Contact your dealer or government agency for location of collection center in your area. Do not open a cooling system when the engine is at operating temperature or hot under pressure; personal injury can result. Avoid radiator cooling fan when engine compartment related service is performed; personal injury can result.  

 

WARNING: WEAR APPROPRIATE EYE AND HAND PROTECTION WHEN PERFORMING THIS PROCEDURE.  

 

NOTE: The service area where this procedure is performed should have a minimum shop air requirement of 80 PSI (5.5 bar) and should be equipped control should be set to the heat position (ignition may need to be turned to  with an air dryer system.  

 

NOTE: For best results, the radiator should be empty. The vehicle’s heater the on position but do not start the motor).  

 

b. Refer to the Mopar Essential Tools and Service Equipment Tool, UView Airlift™ Cooling System  Refill 399-550000 or equivalent and follow tool’s operating manual for specific assembly steps.

c. Choose an appropriate adapter cone that will fit the vehicle’s radiator filler neck or reservoir tank.

d. Attach the adapter cone to the vacuum gauge.

e. Make sure the vacuum generator/venturi ball valve is closed and attach an airline hose (minimum shop air requirement of 80 PSI (5.5 bar) to the vacuum generator/venturi.

f. Position the adaptor cone/vacuum gauge assembly into the radiator filler neck or reservoir tank. Ensure that the adapter cone is sealed properly.

g. Connect the vacuum generator/venturi to the positioned adaptor cone/vacuum gauge assembly.

h. Open the vacuum generator/venturi ball valve.

 

NOTE: Do not bump or move the assembly as it may result in loss of vacuum. Some radiator overflow hoses may need to be clamped off to obtain vacuum.  

 

i. Let the system run until the vacuum gauge shows a good vacuum through the cooling system. Refer to the tool’s operating manual for appropriate pressure readings.

 

NOTE:  If a strong vacuum is being created in the system, it is normal to see the radiator hoses collapse.  

 

j. Close the vacuum generator/venturi ball valve.

k. Disconnect the vacuum generator/venturi and airline from the adaptor cone/vacuum gauge assembly.

l. Wait approximately 20 seconds, if the pressure readings do not move, the system has no leaks. If the pressure readings move, a leak could be present in the system and the cooling system should be checked for leaks and the procedure should be repeated.

m. Place the tool’s suction hose into the coolant’s container.

 

NOTE: Ensure there is a sufficient amount of coolant, mixed to the required strength/protection level available for use. For best results and to assist the refilling procedure, place the coolant container at the same height as the radiator filler neck. Always draw more coolant than required. If the coolant level is too low, it will pull air into the cooling system which could result in airlocks in the system.  

 

n. Connect the tool’s suction hose to the adaptor cone/vacuum gauge assembly.

o. Open the suction hose’s ball valve to begin refilling the cooling system.

p. When the vacuum gauge reads zero, the system is filled.

 

NOTE: On some remote pressurized tanks, it is recommended to stop filling when the proper level is reached.

 

q. Close the suction hose’s ball valve and remove the suction hose from the adaptor cone/vacuum gauge assembly.

r. Remove the adaptor cone/vacuum gauge assembly from the radiator filler neck or reservoir tank.

s. With heater control unit in the HEAT position, operate the engine with container cap in place.

t. After engine has reached normal operating temperature, shut the engine off and allow it to cool. When engine is cooling down, coolant will be drawn into the radiator from the pressure container.

u. Add coolant to the recovery bottle/container as necessary. Only add coolant to the container when the engine is cold. Coolant level in a warm engine will be higher due to thermal expansion. Add necessary coolant to raise container level to the COLD MINIMUM mark after each cool down period.

v. Once the appropriate coolant level is achieved, attach the radiator cap or reservoir tank cap.

 

  1. Start and warm the engine until cooling fan comes on and check for leaks.

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL

Diesel EGR Cooler

 

Dear [Name],

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

 

FCA US has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain [2014 through 2019 Model Year (DS) RAM 1500 Pickup] vehicles equipped with a 3.0L Eco Diesel engine.

 

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

 

WHY DOES MY VEHICLE NEED REPAIRS?

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler on your vehicle [1] may be susceptible to thermal fatigue.  Thermal fatigue may cause the cooler to crack internally over time.  An EGR cooler with an internal crack will introduce pre-heated, vaporized coolant to the EGR system while the engine is running. In certain circumstances, this mixture interacts with other hydrocarbons and air in the system, potentially resulting in combustion within the intake manifold, which may lead to a vehicle fire.  A vehicle fire may increase the risk of injury to occupants and persons outside of the vehicle, as well as property damage.  

 

HOW DO I RESOLVE THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE?

FCA US will repair your vehicle [2] free of charge (parts and labor).  To do this, your dealer will replace the EGR cooler with a new EGR cooler that is not susceptible to thermal fatigue. In the event the intake manifold is damaged, the intake manifold will also be replaced. The estimated repair time is about 2 hours. However, additional time will be necessary if the Intake Manifold needs to be replaced. In addition, your dealer will require your vehicle for proper check-in, preparation, and check-out during your visit, which may require more time. Your time is important to us, so we recommend that you schedule a service appointment to minimize your inconvenience. Please bring this letter with you to your dealership.

 

TO SCHEDULE YOUR FREE REPAIR,
CALL YOUR CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP OR RAM DEALER TODAY

 

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

The State of California requires the completion of emission recall repairs prior to vehicle registration renewal.  Your dealer will provide you with a Vehicle Emission Recall Proof of Correction Form after the Emission Recall service is performed.  Be sure to save this form since the California Department of Motor Vehicles may require that you supply it as proof that the Emission Recall has been performed.

In order to ensure your full protection under the emissions warranty provisions, it is recommended that you have your (vehicle or engine) serviced as soon as possible. Failure to do so could be determined as lack of proper maintenance of your (vehicle or engine).

 

WHAT IF I ALREADY PAID TO HAVE THIS REPAIR COMPLETED?

If you have already experienced this specific condition and have paid to have it repaired, you may visit www.fcarecallreimbursement.com to submit your reimbursement request online. [3] Once we receive and verify the required documents, reimbursement will be sent to you within 60 days.  If you have had previous repairs performed and/or already received reimbursement, you may still need to have the recall repair performed.

 

We apologize for any inconvenience, but are sincerely concerned about your safety.  Thank you for your attention to this important matter.

SAFETY RECALL VB1: 2014-2019 DS 3.0L EGR Cooler Customer Handling

In the event that a customer contacts your dealership regarding concerns related to the VB1 Recall, please advise the customer that parts are currently being obtained and a Remedy is expected April 2020. Customers should also be advised to check their coolant level once every week. If coolant level is consistently below the cold fill line, please direct the customer to come to the Dealership for diagnosis immediately. Click HERE for a one pager that can be provided to the customer to assist with checking the coolant level.

When diagnosing the vehicle, place the customer in a loaner for their convenience. Vehicles should be repaired as per their current warranty coverage. Goodwill assistance should be provided for vehicles no longer under warranty for EGR Cooler replacements. If a customer needs their EGR Cooler replaced, order EGR Cooler part number 68483334AA and Bushing part number 68490221AA (2 required). Part supply is extremely limited. If additional parts are needed follow the order escalation process per the instructions HERE. If there is any issue using this process, please contact your Area Manager or Business Center immediately.

If the vehicle does not currently need any repairs and the customer is still concerned for their safety, please provide the customer with a loaner vehicle until such time that the remedy for the recall is available. Reimbursement will be provided for rental expenses at the current reimbursement rates per FCA Policy regardless of the vehicle’s current warranty coverage. If a customer is placed into a long term rental please inform your Area Manager.

New Safety Recall Advanced Communication – VB1

 

FCA US LLC (FCA US) has announced a safety recall on certain 2014 through 2019 Model Year (DS) RAM 1500 Pickup trucks equipped with a 3.0L Eco Diesel engine.  

 

VINs identified as being involved in this campaign are currently live and searchable. Stop sale is in effect for the above-identified vehicles.

 

Vehicles impacted by a stop sale are eligible for reimbursement allowance through the Recall Floorplan Reimbursement Policy (RFPRP), which can be requested upon recall claim submission.

 

IMPORTANT:  Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory.  Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery.  Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,000 per vehicle.  Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.

 

REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL

Some of the above vehicles may have been built with Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) coolers that are susceptible to thermal fatigue. Thermal fatigue may cause the cooler to crack internally over time.  An EGR cooler with an internal crack will introduce preheated, vaporized coolant to the EGR system while the engine is running. In certain circumstances, this mixture interacts with other hydrocarbons and air in the system, potentially resulting in combustion within the intake manifold, which may lead to a vehicle fire.  A vehicle fire may increase the risk of injury to occupants and persons outside of the vehicle, as well as property damage.

 

SERVICE ACTION

FCA US will conduct a voluntary safety recall to repair the vehicles.  The remedy for this condition is not currently available.  Dealers will be notified of the launch of this safety recall by way of established communication methods.

 

We ask that you please take the time to ensure that your personnel are aware of this communication and are prepared to execute a customer friendly process for inquiries regarding involved vehicles.

FCA US LLC Chronology
2014-2019 Ram 1500 Eco Diesel Engine Compartment
Submitted on October 24, 2019

 

  • On May 22, 2019, the FCA US LLC (“FCA US”) Vehicle Safety and Regulatory Compliance (“VSRC”) organization opened an investigation into engine compartment fires in Ram 1500 3.0L Eco Diesel trucks.

 

  • Starting May 24, 2019, and continuing through June 2019, FCA US VSRC reviewed all Ram 1500 3.0L Eco Diesel fires reported to FCA US, and determined that a number of the fires originated in the general vicinity of the center of the engine compartment.

 

  • During the Month of July 2019, FCA US VSRC met with diesel engineers to understand potential causes and competent ignition sources within the area of origin.

 

  • From August to September 2019, FCA US VSRC held weekly meetings with diesel engineers to understand the circumstances in which fuel and oxygen interacted with a competent ignition source, reviewed details related to failure incidents, and examined returned parts from the field.

 

  • On September 10, 2019, FCA US VSRC inspected a 2017 Ram 1500 3.0L diesel to determine the origin and cause of a fire. The fire originated in the center of the engine, between the intake manifold and the fuel rail. A hole was found in the manifold.

 

  • Beginning on September 14, 2019, FCA US VSRC began reviewing warranty reports and repair orders for 3.0L diesel Ram 1500 vehicles related to Exhaust Gas Recirculation (“EGR”) coolers cracking or leaking.

 

  • On September 30, 2019, FCA US VSRC inspected a 2014 Ram 1500 3.0L diesel to determine the origin and cause of a fire. The fire originated in the center of the engine, between the intake manifold and the fuel rail. A hole was found in the manifold.

 

  • On October 2, 2019, FCA US VSRC received and began analyzing multiple reports of fires in 3.0L diesel Ram 1500 trucks from FCA Canada Inc. These reports allowed FCA US VSRC to better understand the fire dynamics involved and to rule out climate as a potential exacerbating factor.

 

  • As of October 11, 2019, total EGR cooler warranty replacements is 8,909 reports at 49 Cs/1000.
  • As of October 11, 2019, FCA US has identified approximately 1,289 CAIRs, and 61 field reports potentially related to EGR cooler failure.

 

  • As of October 11, 2019, FCA US is unaware of any accidents and 4 minor injuries potentially related to this issue.

 

  • On October 17, 2019, FCA US determined, through the Vehicle Regulations Committee, to conduct a voluntary safety recall of the affected vehicles.
