To be clear, there isn’t a recall for the minivans at this time, and one will only take place if NHTSA discovers a safety-related issue.

If the investigation discovers a defect, NHTSA may move to request Fiat Chrysler Automobiles recall the minivans. FCA may also provide its own evidence and voluntarily recall the vehicles. However, the investigation could dive deeper depending on what engineers find in the first phase.

FCA didn’t immediately return our request for comment, but we’ll learn more about the investigation as it unfolds in the weeks to come.
