Chrysler Windshield and Wiper Recalls Owners Should Know About
Windshield attachment is the repeated issue in these Chrysler visibility recalls, while a separate notice addresses wiper operation. Y47 covers certain 2020-2021 Chrysler 300 vehicles, along with Dodge Challenger and Charger vehicles of those years, whose windshields may be improperly bonded and detach during a crash. The same stated detachment risk appears in 25B for certain 2024 Chrysler Pacifica and Voyager vehicles. Pacifica and Voyager also appear in Z80, but that recall concerns certain 2022 vehicles with improperly tightened wiper arm nuts. Across the listed notices, Pacifica and Voyager recur in two distinct model years and problem types; the Chrysler 300 appears in the windshield bonding notice.
Warning signs to watch for
- Z80: The windshield wipers may not function properly.
Can you keep driving? What the notices say
The Y47 windshield sealant notice, the 25B windshield replacement notice, and the Z80 wiper arm nut notice do not tell owners to stop driving. None gives a park-outside instruction. For the 2020-2021 Chrysler 300 vehicles in Y47, the notice does not direct owners to stop driving. The same absence of a stop-driving instruction applies to the 2024 Pacifica and Voyager vehicles in 25B and the 2022 Pacifica and Voyager vehicles in Z80. This describes the notices' driving instructions.
What the free repair involves
The dealer remedies are free of charge. For Y47, dealers remove and replace the front windshield urethane sealant. For 25B, dealers replace the windshield. For Z80, dealers tighten the wiper arm nuts. The two windshield notices specify different repairs, while the wiper recall addresses the nuts securing the wiper arms.

Common questions
Do both Chrysler windshield recalls call for a new windshield?
The remedies differ. Y47, covering certain 2020-2021 Chrysler 300 and specified Dodge vehicles, calls for removing and replacing the front windshield urethane sealant. For 25B, covering certain 2024 Pacifica and Voyager vehicles, dealers replace the windshield. Both remedies are free.
Which Pacifica and Voyager years have the wiper nut problem?
Z80 covers certain 2022 Chrysler Pacifica and Voyager vehicles. Improperly tightened wiper arm nuts can cause the wipers to function improperly, reducing visibility in certain weather conditions. Dealers tighten the wiper arm nuts free of charge.
Do these notices describe a warning before windshield detachment?
Y47 and 25B describe windshields that may detach during a crash, but neither notice describes an advance warning sign an owner would notice. Z80 separately describes improper wiper operation; that behavior belongs to the wiper recall.
