The fuel tank in your Jeep is the container that holds gasoline until your engine needs it. In some 1993-1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002-2007 Libertys, this tank might crack or leak in a severe rear impact.
Risk if Unfixed
A fuel leak could happen near an ignition source, like a spark plug or hot engine part, which could cause a fire.
Free Fix
Your dealer will inspect the rear of your Jeep for free and, if necessary, install a new tow hitch or replace an aftermarket tow hitch. In some cases, they'll also fix any installation issues with your existing tow hitch. This repair is free, so schedule it as soon as you can.
