What's recalled

Component: Electrical system (propulsion system, traction battery)

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Jeep Wrangler Plug-In Hybrid Electric (PHEV) vehicles. The high voltage (HV) battery pack assembly was built with incorrect fasteners to secure the 200-amp fuse, which can generate excessive heat.

The risk

Excessive heat may cause the fuse to fail and result in a loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.

The remedy and its status

Dealers will inspect and replace the HV battery fuse, as necessary. Dealers will also inspect the battery assembly for damage and replace it, if necessary. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 8, 2022. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is Z71.

Status: NHTSA lists Dec 8, 2022 as the owner-notification date for this campaign.
