## Narrative
I plugged in my charger to my Jeep 4xe and I heard a sizzling sound from the wall charger unit and outlet. I immediately disconnected the charger and cut the power to the unit from the breaker box. This was installed in 2021 by a professional electrician.   I am grateful I was observant because this would have caused a fire. There was evidence of this starting in the outlet box (black residue).  This was. a major near miss safety incident.   Hired a professional electrician to repair the charger.   The wall charging unit is Jeep branded: HCS-40P Hardwired Electric Vehicle Charging Station, Jeep Branded by Clipper Creek Part number: 0922-00-013  Today there is a note on the MOPAR website: No Longer Stellantis LEV Readiness Compliant  Curious...should this unit have been recalled?
