Chrysler Group, LLC "Chrysler" is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Fiat 500e Battery Electric Vehicles "BEV" vehicles manufactured September 24, 2012, through April 4, 2014. The affected vehicles have cooling plates for the Power Inverter Module "PIM" that may leak coolant into areas of the high voltage circuitry, resulting a short circuit that could cause the related service fuse to blow.
If the service fuse blows, the vehicle would have a loss of propulsion while driving, increasing the risk of a crash.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the PIM, free of charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P23.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
