Chrysler has recalled nearly 75,000 SUVs over a manufacturing defect that could cause certain parts to break loose while driving, creating unexpected road hazards and significantly increasing the risk of a crash, according to federal regulators.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nearly 74,578 Dodge Durango vehicles from the 2021-2023 model years are affected by the recall, which was submitted to regulators on Aug. 13, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said.<\/p>\n
According to the recall notice, the vehicles may have rear spoilers that were improperly aligned during installation, causing the spoiler to strike the vehicle\u2019s roof whenever the liftgate opens and closes. Over time, the impact can weaken the spoiler\u2019s structural integrity and cause it to detach while the vehicle is in motion.<\/p>\n
“Rear spoilers which detach from a vehicle may create road debris and increase the risk of a vehicle crash,” the notice said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Regulators said the safety defect was previously addressed under two recall campaigns filed in 2021 and 2023 but warned that owners must return for additional repairs\u00a0due to persistent issues.<\/p>\n
The affected vehicles were manufactured between July 13, 2020, and March 28, 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Approximately 0.8% of the recalled vehicles are estimated to contain the defect. No crashes or injuries have been reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As of July 29, 2026, Chrysler reportedly identified 116 warranty claims, eight customer assistance records and 37 other service reports related to post-remedy failures.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The final, permanent technical repair is currently under development by Chrysler, according to officials.<\/p>\n
Dealers were formally notified on Aug. 20, and searchable vehicle identification numbers became available on NHTSA.gov the same day, officials said.<\/p>\n
Owner notification letters are scheduled to begin mailing on Sept. 10, 2026.<\/p>\n
