Steering: hydraulic power assist, hose, piping, and connections

NHTSA campaign 15V878000 · reported December 23, 2015 · Chrysler (FCA US LLC) · 60,140 vehicles potentially affected

The problem: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2015 Jeep Compass and Patriot vehicles manufactured January 1, 2015, to May 11, 2015. During assembly, the power steering hose retention clamp may have been installed at an incorrect location, resulting in the detachment of the low pressure return hose.
The risk: If the power steering fluid return hose detaches, it would leak fluid and increase the risk of a fire.
The fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the return power steering hose clamp, repositioning the clamp as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on February 5, 2016. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is R68.
