DaimlerChrysler Corporation  Recalls 2006 Dodge Charger, Magnum and Chrysler 300     
 
Manufacturer : DaimlerChrysler Corporation   
 
Component: Brakes

Potential Number Of Units Affected : 44,367

Summary:
 Certain passenger vehicles equipped with 2.7 liter engines and mk25e braking systems may exhibit inadequate clearance between the rear brake tubes and the exhaust gas recirculation tube. Contact between the brake tubes and exhaust gas recirculation tube over an extended period of time may cause the brake tubes to wear through and cause a brake fluid leak. 

Consequence:
May result in a decrease of braking force and the potential for an engine compartment fire. 

Remedy:
 Dealers will inspect the rear brake tubes for damage and replace them free of charge. A clip will also be installed to secure the brake tubes to the right front shock tower to maintain proper clearance to the exhaust gas recirculation tube. The manufacturer has not yet provided and owner notification schedule. Owners may contact DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
