JEEP JL Wrangler & JT Gladiator (2020–2024)
What the hazard is
Some customers may experience a loss of power steering assist or a "Service Power Steering" Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). In some circumstances, high resistance electrical activity may take place in the area of the EHPSP connection causing overheating of combustible materials. Overheating of combustible materials in the vehicle or surrounding area may potentially lead to a fire. A fire can result in increased risk of occupant injury and injury to persons outside the vehicle.
What to do
Owners of affected vehicles can contact their nearest authorised dealership as soon as possible to have the work carried out, free of charge.
Defect
Some of the listed vehicles may have an Electric Hydraulic Power Steering Pump (EHPSP) electrical connection susceptible to high resistance.
