B9A recall is available!

Agreed. Crazy thing is I called 3 more dealerships in the area before I found one that claims they can at least do the test. We shall see how it goes...

I’m very curious to see how many people will be impacted and need a new battery. And how long we will be waiting for a new battery

The more important question is how many batteries will catch fire while being charged to test whether the battery is safe to charge? ?

I’d guess the chances of that happening are extremely low.

I should probably stop charging mine

...perhaps they don't have a level 2 charger installed in a service bay?

The recall procedure requires the vehicle be charged outside.

Mine is there now. I had to leave it overnight. The guys at the shop said that this fix is a joke. It takes a minimum of 8 hrs. They had to have the tech stay and work OT to finish. It is not feasible for anyone. I hope that it works.

Keep us posted on how everything ends up. Hopefully well.

Meh dealership service departments prefer to do $1,500 "oil changes" than recall/warranty work.

Complete and back home in the garage!

Nice!

Question: Your signature shows a 2022 4xe, and a 2023 4xe. I was under the impression (probably the WRONG impression) that only 2021 model years were affected. Was this your 2022 4xe that was recalled?

I'm also curious my 2022 was built January 2022, quite an early build date and has not popped up on the recall.

One explanation would be the OP has a 2022 model year with a build date in 2021 - presumably prior to some “cutoff date”, after which Stellantis believes the HV batteries are no longer suspect.

Alternatively, maybe the VIN points them to a particular batch of HV batteries. Who knows!
