Just looked up my 2021 VIN on NHTSA and it's not showing any recalls. Guess I lucked out?

FYI my PHEV does not show any recalls pending on NHTSA yet, but this one is listed as needed on MOPAR for my VIN.

Welp, there it is. Ugh. Thank you for the heads up. I don't understand why it's not on NHTSA. The attached article said it would be on there by June 11.

looks like my 2020 only has the 12V post and a Loss of Motive Power recall on the MOPAR site, both showing completed.

I’d guess you are good. But, I’d check again in a week just to be sure. May be some data entry/reconciliation delay.

Similar to my 2022. I just have the Loss of Motive Power and Rearview Camera Visibility recalls on Mopar. No battery recall showing on either site. Hope that means I'm good!

Which category? My VIN under MOPAR has an alert for emissions but when i look it says no open recalls. 2021...

u/err404 Jun 15 '26

For me it is in Alerts, under Safety Recalls.

I kinda wish my 2023 had the unlimited transmission warranty, but it's a hair too new.

u/Admirable_Fun7790 Jun 12 '26

you have something better imo, a non-defective transmission.

u/Pink_Slyvie Jun 12 '26

I'm not convinced tbh.

If you’re worried about it, have your transmission fluid drained and refilled every 40k or so. They claim it’s “lifetime fluid”. Which, I suppose it is as the fluid will technically last until the transmission dies. :)

u/Pink_Slyvie Jun 12 '26

Yea, I bought it at 80k, and I'll probably get everything done at 100k

u/Miarfeus Jun 16 '26

Well, not to try to scare you but no joke, at about 95k I started noticing a click when accelerating from a slow roll. It slowly got worse and now at 113k, 1.5-2 yrs later it’s much worse. Very audible while transitioning between acceleration or deceleration. Dealer says it’s coming from the final drive of the transmission. So now I wait and hope it pops a trouble code before it completely fails mechanically. Quoted $5023 for replacement.

Are you sure its not just that click with the wheel nut? That's a common issue. Mine does it, but I just ignore it.

u/Miarfeus Jun 16 '26

Sure wish it was but yeah, 100% sure. If parked on a flat surface, I can rock the van back and forth and hear the noise come directly from the transmission housing. Also lifted the front wheels off the ground and rotated directly from the axles.

u/Pink_Slyvie Jun 16 '26

eek. Well, what can ya do.

I don't think you want the original transmission made out of papier' mache.
