ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING Safety Recalls

Critical #17E061000 Plain English
Component

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE:TURBO/SUPERCHARGER

Manufacturer
Accessible Technologies, Inc.
What Happened
Your ProCharger supercharger is a high-performance part that boosts your engine's power. In some cases, the mounting bracket for this supercharger might be touching the ABS line in your Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 or SRT, which could damage it.
Risk if Unfixed
If the ABS line gets damaged, it could start leaking brake fluid. This would make it harder to stop your vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your ATI dealer will replace the supercharger bracket with a new one, free of charge. You should contact them to schedule the repair as soon as possible.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

Manufacturer
CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
What Happened
The connecting rod in your engine is a crucial part that helps your engine run smoothly. In some 2012 Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep models with 3.6L engines, debris inside the engine block could cause the rod to fail.
Risk if Unfixed
If the connecting rod fails, your engine could seize, which means it might stop working completely while you're driving. This could increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Chrysler will replace the engine in your vehicle with a new one, free of charge. You'll receive a recall notice and should contact Chrysler at 1-800-853-1403 to schedule the repair, which will start on or about November 18, 2011.
