The electrical connectors of the diesel fuel heater may overheat, causing it to leak fuel. This could potentially result in fire. Chrysler has stated that repairs involve upgrading wiring harness terminals and possibly improving housing for the fuel heater. According to Money online, Chrysler has received only two reports of overheating, but aren’t aware of any fires as a result of it.
