Jeep Grand Cherokee With Diesel Engine Recalled for Stall Risk
The problem is due to a faulty fuel pump, which dealerships will replace for free
Drivers of 2014 through 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs and 2014 through 2019 Ram 1500 pickup trucks equipped with a 3.0-liter diesel engine may need to bring their cars to a dealership for a recall repair.
The vehicles may stall while in motion, which could cause a crash. The problem is due to a faulty high-pressure fuel pump, which can wear prematurely. A total of 138,645 vehicles are affected by the recall.
Dealerships will replace the faulty fuel pumps—and, if necessary, other parts of the vehicles’ fuel systems—free of charge.
The Details
Vehicles Recalled
• Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs with a 3.0-liter diesel engine built between Dec. 19, 2012, and Oct. 13, 2019
• Ram 1500 pickup trucks with a 3.0-liter diesel engine built between June 12, 2013, and Dec. 13, 2019
The problem: Because of premature wear, the high-pressure fuel pump may stop working and/or discharge internal debris into the affected vehicles’ fuel systems. As a result, the vehicle may stall due to fuel starvation.
The fix: Dealerships will replace the fuel pumps and inspect and service the vehicles’ fuel systems, free of charge.
How to contact the manufacturer: Stellantis will start mailing notification letters to owners of affected vehicles on July 29, 2022. Owners may also contact the automaker at 800-853-1403.
Stellantis’ own number for this recall is Z46.
