Automotive manufacturer Stellantis South Africa has issued a safety recall for 920 Jeep Grand Cherokee WL vehicles distributed in South Africa between 2021 and 2023, says the National Consumer Commission (NCC).

“Consumers who own affected vehicles are urged to take their vehicles to an authorised Jeep dealership for inspection and the necessary repair or replacement, which will be carried out at no cost to the consumer.”

According to Stellantis, the upper control arm pinch bolt in the affected vehicles may have been damaged during vehicle assembly. This may cause the pinch bolt to break, which would result in a loss of clamp load between the upper control arm ball joint and the knuckle.

This could result in the wheel tilting outward, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash without prior warning, the NCC says.
