All kits were manufactured from April 20, 1999, through September 23, 2004. These assemblies were manufactured as replacement equipment for certain Dodge pickup trucks and SUVs. A small piece of material from the tube wall could be sucked into the engine throttle body, which could cause the throttle to become jammed in the open position.
Consequence:
A jammed open throttle could cause unintended acceleration of the vehicle, possibly resulting in a crash or increased stoping distances when braking.
Remedy:
K&N will provide owners with a free repair kit along with repair instructions. The recall began on April 20, 2006.
Notes:
This recall only pertains to replacement K&N fuel performance kits and has no relation to any original equipment installed on Dodge vehicles manufactured by DaimlerChrysler.
