Recall 04V113000: Engine Stalling Hazard



DEFECT: On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with a NGC-1 powertrain control module, the software protocol used to test the vehicle exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system may lead to engine stalling under certain circumstances, increasing the risk of a crash.


Remedy: Dealers will install revised engine controller software, which will eliminate the potential for the stalling condition. The manufacturer has reported that owner notification began on March 15, 2004. Owners may contact DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
