  • SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC Recall for 2006 CHRYSLER 300

    • Recall Announced MAY 03 2006
    • NHTSA Reference #06V149000
    • Number Affected 44,367

    Summary: Certain passenger vehicles equipped with 2.7 liter engines and mk25E braking systems may exhibit inadequate clearance between the rear brake tubes and the exhaust gas recirculation tube. Contact between the brake tubes and exhaust gas recirculation tube over an extended period of time may cause the brake tubes to wear through and cause a brake fluid leak.

    Consequence: This can result in a decrease of braking force and the potential for an engine compartment fire.

    Fix: Dealers will inspect the rear brake tubes for damage and replace them free of charge. A clip will also be installed to secure the brake tubes to the right front shock tower to maintain proper clearance to the exhaust gas recirculation tube. The recall began on June 26, 2006. Owners may contact DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
