    Yep. I got mine back in September (or October?).

    I think I was at the dealer about 1.5 hours. Maybe.

    I have a 2013 Dodge Challenger SXT Plus. Is the recall (UB4) essential? Most of the forums online list 2015 up.

    What year is your Challenger, and is the recall (UB4) essential?

    Wow, I did my UB4 for the vapor canister back in July 2019. I have a 2015 RT. It says its for 2013 to 2016.
    If you want to check your exact car, go to https://www.mopar.com/en-ca/my-vehicle/recalls/search.html and type in your VIN.

    You can also download the "MY MOPAR" app for your phone. I use it a lot. You can enter all your Mopar vehicles, review factory scheduled maintenance, look at the owners manual and other stuff. If you enter your VIN numbers, it will list recalls required and completed. It will automatically enter any service done at a Mopar dealer and you can self enter any other work done at other shops or by yourself. I highly recommend it, I just used it to pull up the info on the UB4 recall.

    Thanks. The UB4 recall was originated in July 2019 as you state. Older vehicles were to be notified first, but that was incorrect. I'll have the canister replaced, can't harm anything. I picked up the below information:

    The problem: The catalytic converters in these vehicles are deteriorating faster than expected, FCA says. This was discovered during routine EPA emissions testing of vehicles that are already on the road. According to the EPA, these vehicles may exceed the emission limits for nitrogen oxide and carbon monoxide.
