What This Recall Means

Component

STEERING:GEAR BOX (OTHER THAN RACK AND PINION)

What Happened
The steering gear box in your vehicle is like a complex system that helps you turn the wheels. There's a small internal nut inside that keeps everything working smoothly, but in some cases, it can come loose and cause a problem.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, your steering could fail, making it harder to control your vehicle. This could increase the risk of a crash, especially if you're driving at high speeds or in heavy traffic.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your authorized dealer will replace the steering gear assembly with a new one, completely free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible and don't hesitate to contact the dealer if you don't receive the repair in a reasonable amount of time.

Affected Vehicles

2001 JEEP Grand Cherokee
