Recalls

A component in the air bag control module may fail causing the front airbags, side curtain airbags, and/or seatbelt pretensioners to deploy inadvertently while the vehicle is being operated. Inadvertent deployment of the airbags may increase the risk of injury and the possibility of a vehicle crash. Dealers will install a supplemental wire harness to the airbag control module to correct this concern. The Chrysler recall number is M35.

Chrysler has recalled 2000 and 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokees because the plastic blades of the electric motor driven cooling fan may separate and penetrate the shroud. If this occurs while the hood is open, a person in the vicinity may be struck by the blade and possibly injured. Dealers will replace the electric cooling fan modules free of charge.

Chrysler has recalled 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokees because the air bag wiring harness was improperly manufactured, which may cause improper air bag deployment in certain crash conditions. Dealers will add a wiring jumper to the existing circuitry.

Chrysler is recalling 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokees because the fuel inlet check valve may stick in the partially open position, which can cause fuel to spill out of the filler tube during refueling. In the presence of an ignition source, fuel leakage can result in a fire. Dealers will inspect the fuel inlet check valve and replace the fuel tank assembly, if necessary.

Chrysler is recalling certain 2002 PT Cruiser and Jeep Grand Cherokee models because the instrument cluster could become inoperative. The majority of cluster functions will stop working if this occurs. Dealers will upgrade the cluster software to correct this concern.
