What is being recalled
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L vehicles. These vehicles may have been built with a missing weld from the seat back frame to the child seat tether anchorage. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 225, "Child Restraint Anchorage Systems."
Why it is dangerous
A missing weld may allow the child seat tether to separate from the seat frame during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the second-row seat back frame, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 7, 2022. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US LLC's number for this recall is Z24.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 22V-180 when calling a dealer.
