Risk and remedy
Risk
The reduced strength can allow the cast iron wear surface to separate from the hub, reducing the brake effectiveness of the vehicle.
Remedy
Dealers will replace these rotors with rotors that are coated with a corrosion protection.
Vehicle description: multipurpose passenger vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions. this IS not a safety recall in accordance with federal regulation 573. however, it IS deemed a safety improvement campaign by the agency. drivers can mistakenly step on the accelerator pedal when they intend to step on the brake pedal.
Risk and remedy
Risk
Pedal misapplication by a driver can cause unintended acceleration.
Remedy
Dealers will install a shift interlock on the automatic transmission of these vehicles.
During assembly of the frame, a fillet weld that joins the inner steering gear attachment reinforcement to the frame rail, was omitted.
Risk and remedy
Risk
Due to high steering load events, vehicles can exhibit broken steering gear attaching bolts or frame rail cracking at the steering gear attaching point increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect the vehicles for cracks in the frame rail. vehicles that show cracks will be equipped with reinforcement plates. vehicles that are found to be free of cracks will have a slot cut in the cross member and the fillet weld will be added.
The tire and wheel specification information on the certification label indicates a minimum tire size larger than the tire actually fitted to the vehicle. This does not comply with fmvss 120, "tire selection and rims."
Risk and remedy

My vehicle IS experiencing the death wobble because of the oem steering and suspension components. I was driving down ronald reagan parkway in davenport, fl pulling a trailer and hit a minor bump pot hole in the road when my jeep started to exhibit the 'death wobble,' I was able to control it, but being on a two lane road and a truck next to me I was scared of an accident because of the wobble.

I own a 1993 jeep cherokee and the front brake caliper on the driver side locked up on july 4, 2017, while driving around town, about 15 minutes after being started, without any hard braking. the next day the caliper was replaced. today, 9/28/2017, while driving at highway speed about 20 minutes after car being started to drive to work, a shimmy developed. when I got to work a few miles later, the caliper was locked again and was smoking. in 1998, while driving my father's 1993 jeep cherokee (not the same one I now own), the same problem occurred that the driver side front brake caliper locked onto the tire and caused a lot of smoke. I assumed it was an isolated incident at the time. I understand that things will go wrong with older vehicles in the normal course of being used and becoming worn, but this seems to be a very common point of failure on this particular model and year that started happening when the vehicles were still relatively new. brake problems are an extremely dangerous thing to occupants of the vehicles in question, and the public at large, so I feel this merits being reported because everything else about this vehicle has been strong and reliable, and I still see so many of them out on the highways and city streets. I clicked "next" and one of the questions IS, "was there a fire?" I am going to click yes because there was a copious amount of smoke but want to clarify here that there were no flames that I saw.

For over two years now I have had a severe wobble on the front right tire. I have met two other people that own a 1992 and 1993 that complained about the same problem. at 50 mph the front right tire will wobble uncontrollably and feels like the tire IS going to snap off. the entire front end has been replaced along with the tires, in an on-going trial and error process of attempting to discover what IS causing the severe wobble and how to correct it. we've had around $5,000 in parts replaced in the front end, to no avail. the wobble IS worse than ever and the vehicle IS unsafe to drive. I need help. any recalls? *Jb

Dt: consumer's daughter was driving through walmart parking lot at a low speed and heard a loud noise coming from the front end of the vehicle, she slowly drove home about four miles. consumer inspected the vehicle after she arrived home and discovered the left driver's side lower control arm attachment point on the axle was detached by the weld. had towed to a firestone outlet that had performed service on the vehicle, replaced anti roll bar attachment points that had worn out approximately one day prior. the service repair shop said they had never seen anything like this before. they noted there was no abuse of the vehicle or prior accident, the weld had simply failed. they could not repair this because of the liability issues, they did refer to a specialty welding shop and a jeep dealer, and they would not perform service as well for the same reasons. the only way to repair was to replace the entire front axle. no repairs have been made at this time. *ak

- Crash Related Fuel Tank Fires
ODI has completed an extensive analysis of rear crash fuel tank system integrity data for the subject Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Liberty vehicles (SVs).As of June 2013, ODI knew of 56 post-collision fatal fires, 28 non-fatal fires, and 6 fuel leak incidents (totaling 90 incidents, 75 fatalities and 58 injuries)…
ODI has completed an extensive analysis of rear crash fuel tank system integrity data for the subject Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Liberty vehicles (SVs).As of June 2013, ODI knew of 56 post-collision fatal fires, 28 non-fatal fires, and 6 fuel leak incidents (totaling 90 incidents, 75 fatalities and 58 injuries) involving the SVs.Based on this analysis, ODI issued a Recall Request Letter (RRL) on June 3, 2013 requesting that Chrysler recall the Grand Cherokee and Liberty vehicles due to the rate of fatal, non-fatal fire, and fuel leak incidents when compared to peer vehicles (compact and medium SUVs) built during the same time period.In the RRL, ODI described how the location of the aft-mounted fuel tank made the SVs vulnerable to rear impact crash fuel tank failures.During the analysis, besides the high speed/high severity crashes present in both the SV and peer vehicles, ODI observed a significant number of low and moderate speed rear impact crash related fires and leaks, particularly in the Liberty.The data also demonstrated that SVs originally equipped with towing hitch receivers (trailer hitches) appeared to be under-represented in rear-impact related fuel tank failures.In the RRL, ODI requested that Chrysler provide its response by June 18, 2013, otherwise NHTSA might proceed to an Initial Decision that the SVs contain a safety-related defect.Chrysler responded to the RRL on June 4, 2013 and vigorously disputed the tentative findings of the RRL.Among other things, Chrysler argued that the SVs had an overall safety record superior to their peers, met or exceeded all applicable federal motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS) and only experienced fires in severe high energy rear impacts.Nonetheless, while continuing to maintain that the SVs did not contain a safety-related defect, Chrysler proposed a recall (13V-252) of approximately 2.5M (1.6M currently registered) model year (MY) 1993 - 1998 Grand Cherokee (ZJ) and MY 2002-2007 Liberty (KJ) vehicles on June 18, 2013.The recall remedy submitted by Chrysler would employ a hitch receiver assembly consisting of a steel cross-member behind the fuel tank with forward-projecting arms bolted to the frame rails on either side of the fuel tank.For the MY 1999 - 2004 Grand Cherokee, Chrysler indicated it would conduct a customer satisfaction campaign and inspect vehicles equipped with aftermarket tow hitch receivers, and if necessary, replace any such hitch receivers whose conditionmay increase the risk of fuel system failure in rear crashes.Examination of the available data established that the MY 1999 - 2004 Grand Cherokee did not pose the same magnitude of safety risk as the MY 1993 - 1998 Grand Cherokee and MY 2002-2007 Liberty, particularly in low and moderate speed rear impacts.Because the agency has concluded that the vehicles do not present an unreasonable risk to safety, ODI is closing its investigation of the MY 1999 - 2004 Grand Cherokee.Although it was not within the scope of the Petition initiating this investigation or the Preliminary Evaluation preceding this EA, ODI also examined the performance of the MY 1993 - 2001 Cherokee as part of this investigation.NHTSA's assessment of the available data for the Cherokee did not establish an unreasonable risk in comparison to peer vehicles.ODI does not approve proposed defect remedies.While offering to install hitch receiver assemblies on the MY 1993-1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002-2007 Liberty, Chrysler did not, in ODI's view, provide enough evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed remedy in rear impacts.The Complete Summary for this Closing Resume (EA12-005) can be seen by
