NHTSA campaign 21V516000 · reported July 8, 2021 · Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) · 21,258 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, and Chrysler 300 vehicles. During manufacturing, the windshield may not have been properly bonded to the vehicle, allowing it to detach in a crash.
