2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee Problems

6, 5.7, or 6.4 liter engine and previously recalled under NHTSA Recall 14V530 or 15V115. The fuel pump relay inside the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM-7) may fail, causing the vehicle to stall without warning. A vehicle stall increases the risk of a crash.

Fix: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) will replace the affected fuel pump relay and related wire harness. Vehicles that experience a fuel pump failure will receive an interim repair.

The supercharger mounting bracket may rub against and damage the ABS brake line, which can cause a brake fluid leak. Losing brake fluid can make the car take longer to stop and raise the risk of a crash.

Fix: The dealer will replace the supercharger brackets free of charge.

The affected vehicles had brake booster shields installed under a previous campaign to prevent water from entering the brake booster and limiting braking ability. This recall is to verify that the brake booster shield installation was performed properly. If the brake booster shield was not installed properly, the vehicle's braking ability may be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the brake booster shield, correcting the installation as necessary, free of charge.

The affected vehicles have electro-hydraulic power steering (EHPS) and are equipped with a 5.7L or a 3.6L engine and a 160, 180 or 220 amp alternator. In the affected vehicles, the alternator may suddenly fail. If the alternator fails, the vehicle may stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash. There is also the possibility that the alternator may short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire.

Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the alternator and depending on the part number, will replace the alternator, if necessary, free of charge.

The wiring for the lighted vanity mirror in the sun visor can short circuit, even on some cars that were already repaired under an earlier recall for the same wiring. A short can cause a vehicle fire.

Fix: The dealer will add clearance for the sun visor wiring, protect it from sharp edges, and replace the sun visor, free of charge.

6, 5.7 or 6.4 liter engine, and 2012-2013 Dodge Durango vehicles manufactured January 18, 2011, to August 19, 2013, and equipped with a 3.6 or 5.7 liter engine. In the affected vehicles, the fuel pump relay inside the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM-7) may fail, causing the vehicle to stall without warning. A vehicle stall increases the risk of a crash.

Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel pump relay with one external to the TIPM. Note: This recall is an expansion of recall 14V-530.

6L engine and a 160 amp alternator. In the affected vehicles, the alternator may suddenly fail. If the alternator fails, the vehicle may stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Chrysler has notified owners, and dealers will replace the alternator, free of charge.

After a service repair, the wiring for the sun visor vanity lamp may short circuit. A short can cause a fire, so the problem is serious.

Fix: The dealer will inspect and repair any damaged wiring and install a new sun visor that routes the wire correctly, free of charge.

The subject vehicles have a brake booster with a center shell that may corrode and allow water to get inside. The water inside could freeze and limit the braking ability of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will add a water diverter shield to the booster after the booster has been tested to confirm it can hold an acceptable amount of vacuum pressure. If the booster inspection confirms an unacceptable loss of vacuum pressure, the booster will be replaced.

Under certain braking events, the Ready Alert Braking System can cause a hard brake pedal feel. The driver may not press the pedal as intended, which can lengthen stopping distance and raise the risk of a crash.

Fix: The dealer will update the ABS module software at no cost to you.
