What's wrong?
The manufacturer label on a 2024 Dodge Hornet or Tonale is the certification label attached to the vehicle body. It lists required build information, including tire size and rim size, so an owner, tire shop, or dealer can confirm the correct tires and wheels for that specific vehicle. That information matters when tires are replaced, wheels are changed, or inflation guidance is checked.
On affected vehicles, the label was printed without the required rim size designation, and the recall summary also says tire size information is missing. This is not a broken mechanical part. It is a manufacturing label error: the vehicle left assembly with an incomplete label, so the vehicle does not meet the federal tire selection and rim labeling requirement.
There is no warning sign before failure because the issue is the label itself. You will not feel a change while driving, but the missing information can cause confusion when someone selects replacement tires or rims.
Who's affected?
The Hornet and Tonale share the same vehicle-label part in this recall, so the VIN check matters even when the model year matches.
| 2024 Dodge Hornet | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
|---|---|
| 2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale | vehicle label (placard or certification) |
| Units affected | 1,201 |
| Field incidents | NHTSA has logged no field incidents to date. |
A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific crossover is included.
What's the safety risk?
Missing rim and tire size information on the label creates a risk that a shop or owner installs the wrong wheel, increasing crash risk. Schedule the label repair soon, especially before wheel or tire work. Repair is free at any franchised Dodge dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2024 Dodge Hornet or Alfa Romeo Tonale is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Dodge dealer to schedule the free corrected-label overlay that adds the missing rim and tire size information.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it. If not, reference recall number 24V209 when you call.
- Avoid wheel or tire changes until the corrected label is applied. If tire or wheel service is needed, ask the dealer to verify the correct rim and tire size before installation.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Dodge technician applies a corrected manufacturer label overlay with the tire rim and tire size information that was missing from the original label. The recall repair is free, and parts and labor are covered. If you already paid out of pocket for a related label correction, FCA's reimbursement process asks you to send the original receipt or other adequate proof of payment so the company can confirm the expense.
