Transport Canada recall 2025541 · manufacturer campaign A0C

9 October 2025

Transport Canada lists: Dart 2013–2016

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the shifter cable may detach. As a result, the transmission may not shift gears when the shifter is moved. Additionally, if the vehicle isn't in the Park (P) position, and the parking brake isn't applied, the vehicle could roll away. Note: This recall only affects vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission. Vehicles that were repaired under V34 (Transport Canada recall no. 2019-183) also require this repair.

Why it matters

A parked vehicle that rolls away could create the risk of an injury or a crash.

What the dealer will do

FCA Canada will notify owners in writing. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.

12 April 2019

Transport Canada lists: Dart 2013–2016

What is wrong

On certain cars equipped with an automatic transmission, the shifter cable may detach. This could cause the transmission not to shift gears when the shifter is moved. If a driver attempts to exit the car while it is not in the Park position, and the parking brake is not applied, the car could move suddenly.

Why it matters

Sudden and unexpected movement of the car could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to replace the transmission side shifter cable bushing with an improved one. Note: The gear position indicator on the instrument cluster and next to the shifter will continue to work properly. In addition, if the driver's door is opened while the transmission is not in Park, the door ajar messages will display on the instrument cluster and chimes will sound.

Brakes

Transport Canada recall 2015571 · manufacturer campaign R63

25 November 2015

Transport Canada lists: Dart 2013–2014

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, engine oil may migrate from the vacuum pump into the brake booster. Prolonged brake booster diaphragm exposure to engine oil could cause the diaphragm to fail, leading to a loss of brake booster assist. This may result in increased brake pedal effort, which could increase stopping distances, potentially resulting in a crash causing injury and/or damage property.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will inspect the brake booster grommet for the presence of oil. If no oil is found, the vacuum tube assembly will be replaced. If oil is found, the vacuum pump, vacuum tube assembly, brake booster and master cylinder will be replaced.

Transport Canada recall 2015382 · manufacturer campaign R42

27 August 2015

Transport Canada lists: Dart 2013–2015

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a defect in the Transmission Control Module (TCM) mounting bracket may cause the printed circuit board solder joints to separate, resulting in an electrical open circuit in the TCM. An open circuit in the TCM could cause the transaxle to shift into “Neutral” without warning. If the transmission shifts into neutral, the vehicle may experience a loss of motive power, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will replace the Transmission Control Module and the TCM mounting bracket.

What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with the "Mopar 13" upfit package, the front side airbag may not have been installed correctly. This could cause the front side airbag to not deploy properly or perform as designed in certain types of crashes, potentially increasing the risk of injury to occupants.

What the dealer will do

7 June 2013

Transport Canada lists: Dart 2013

What is wrong

Certain vehicles equipped with 1.4L MultiAir turbo engines may experience engine stalling at ambient temperatures of -6.5 degrees celsius or colder.

Brakes

Transport Canada recall 2013105 · manufacturer campaign N21

5 April 2013

Transport Canada lists: Dart 2013

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, incorrect rear brake calipers may have been installed during vehicle assembly. As a result, the parking brake system may not function.

What the dealer will do

Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the rear brake calipers.
