NHTSA Campaign 20V699000 Recall Details

What This Recall Means

Component

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE (EGR VALVE)

What Happened

The EGR valve in your Jeep Grand Cherokee is a crucial part that helps control emissions. In some 2014-2019 models with 3.0L EcoDiesel engines, the EGR valve's cooler might crack, allowing hot coolant to mix with air in the engine.

Risk if Unfixed

If this happens, the mixture could ignite inside the engine's intake manifold, which could cause a fire. This is a serious risk that could lead to significant damage or injury.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix

Your Jeep dealer will replace the EGR cooler, inspect the intake manifold, and fix any damage – all for free. You'll receive a second notification when the parts are available, and you should schedule the repair as soon as you get that notice.
