Every Chrysler Ypsilon recall
Newest first. The concern is the part or system affected, the defect is what can go wrong, and the remedy is what the manufacturer does to put it right.
HEADLIGHTS MAY FAIL

BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE REDUCED
R/2012/140, launched 7 December 2012, 16 vehicles affected across the models it covers
Defect: A connector on the brake servo pipe may fail and cause a loss of vacuum assistance necessitating the driver to include additional effort when braking.
Remedy: Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit a new brake servo pipe.
ABS MAY FAIL
R/2012/030, launched 30 March 2012, 733 vehicles affected across the models it covers
Defect: The battery carrier tray may interfere with the ABS control unit wiring. This may damage the wiring and cause the ABS system to fail.
