A cooling fan stall / seizure event could lead to electrical overloading of the fan motor potentially resulting in the thermal degradation of the brush housing, which may lead to a vehicle fire. On this recall I was told by the dealer that they have not found a solution. I called the fca number and it just hangs up before I can talk to someone

There has been a safety recall issued to address an overheating issue in fan motors. It affects protesters with 3.0 L diesel or 3.6 L gasoline engines, which ours is.there is a heightened risk of engine fire, therefore they have advised we should not drive the van. There is currently no fix, and we are have been told by our Chrysler dealer they may have the fix engineered in the first quarter of 2020. This is unacceptable as we can't drive our vehicle.
