New Safety Recall Advanced Communication – Y92

FCA US LLC (FCA US) has announced a safety recall on certain 2019 Model Year (BA) FiateBay logo 124 Spider vehicles.

 

REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL

Some of the above vehicles may have been built with a fuel delivery module (FDM) with impellers that could deform. A FDM with a deformed impeller may interfere with other fuel pump components which can inhibit the operation of the fuel pump potentially causing fuel starvation. Fuel starvation may result in an unexpected loss of motive power, which can cause vehicle crash without prior warning.

 

SERVICE ACTION

FCA US will conduct a voluntary safety recall of all affected vehicles to replace the FDM. 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. This recall is estimated to launch in 1st Quarter of 2022.

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 used vehicle inventory.  Dealers should complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery.  Dealers should also perform this recall on vehicles in for service.Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.

 

Subject

The Fuel Delivery Module (FDM) on about 1,620 of the above vehicles may have been built with impellers that could deform. A FDM with a deformed impeller may interfere with other fuel pump components which can inhibit the operation of the fuel pump, potentially causing fuel starvation. Fuel starvation may result in an unexpected loss of motive power, which increases the risk of a vehicle crash without prior warning.

 

Repair

Replace the fuel pump within the fuel delivery module.

 

Alternate Transportation

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