The problem
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L vehicles. Due to a software programming error, any failure with the turn signals would not be communicated to the driver. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
If a turn signal fails, the driver will not be informed and surrounding drivers will not receive indication of the intention to change vehicle direction, which can increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will update the body control module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 28, 2022. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is Z35.
