Stellantis bulletin 0200523

What it saysFront Control Arm Bushings Noise The technician or customer may notice the following: ? NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Stellantis filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Jul 15, 2023, received Sep 25, 2023, about the suspension. It names 3 model years across Dodge and Chrysler (2023). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Stellantis 0200523 a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the 0200523 repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every Stellantis warranty extension on file lists the ones Stellantis has filed.

Which vehicles does 0200523 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 3 model years across 2 brands (Dodge and Chrysler): 2023 Chrysler 300, 2023 Dodge Challenger, 2023 Dodge Charger. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
