The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says on its website that a missing or incorrectly installed rivet could cause the problem, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.

The recall includes the 2011 Chrysler 200 and Town and Country; the Dodge Avenger, Caliber, Caravan, Journey and Nitro; and the Jeep Compass, Liberty, Patriot and Wrangler. The 11 models were built from mid-April to early May.
