Jeep Owners, It’s Time to Pay Attention!
Gather ’round, Jeep enthusiasts! If you own one of those shiny 4xe plug-in hybrids, keep your eyes peeled! Stellantis is issuing a recall for over 375,000 Jeep Wrangler and Grand Cherokee vehicles due to a heightened risk of fire. That’s right; it seems charging your hybrids might ignite some drama—literally!
Who’s Affected?
The recall affects select model years from 2020-2025 for the Wrangler 4xe and 2022-2026 for the Grand Cherokee 4xe. So if you’ve been happily plugging in your ride, maybe think twice before doing so again! The company discovered a staggering 19 reports of fires linked to these vehicles. With that kind of track record, it’s clear that parking next to your home is a no-go.
What to Do if You Own a 4xe?
Until Stellantis releases a fix—rumored to be “imminent”—they are advising all drivers to refrain from charging and to park these beauties away from anyone’s charming home or other vehicles. It might just be a bit safer to enjoy that drained battery vibe for a while. If you have further questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to give customer care a ring at 1-800-853-1403 or hit up recalls.mopar.com for more details and possible solutions.
Remember, the best ride is a safe ride! Let your friends know so they can steer clear of a fiery situation!
