• On November 9, 2023, the FCA US LLC (“FCA US”) Technical Safety and Regulatory Compliance (“TSRC”) organization was notified of a potential issue related to an internal weld within SCCMs on some FCA US LLC vehicles. • From November 2023, through January 2024, FCA US TSRC conducted an analysis of SCCM failure patterns and vehicle history and determined that the affected vehicles may have been built with SCCMs which may have poor weld adhesion between the FFC and busbar. • On February 7, 2024, the FCA US TSRC organization recognized a vehicle build issue existed on certain vehicles related to a condition that can lead to the driver’s airbag not deploying in the event of a vehicle crash, potentially resulting in a noncompliance with FMVSS No. 208. • On March 7, 2024, FCA US determined, through the Vehicle Regulations Committee, to conduct a voluntary safety recall of the affected vehicles. The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 24V-199

Description of Remedy :
Description of Remedy Program : FCA US will conduct a voluntary safety recall on all affected vehicles to
inspect and, if necessary, replace the steering column control module.
FCA US has a longstanding policy and practice of reimbursing owners who have incurred the cost of repairing a problem that subsequently becomes the subject of a field action. To ensure consistency, FCA US, as part of the owner letter, will request that customers send the original receipt and/or other adequate proof of payment to the company for confirmation of the expense.
How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component :
The defective component is the clockspring within the SCCM which is supplied to FCA US LLC by three different SCCM suppliers.
The remedy components are SCCMs with clockspring built with properly welded FFC to busbar.
