Jeep Liberty 2004

A fractured control arm can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear lower control arms, free of charge. The recall began June 26, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is U38. Note: This recall is an expansion of recall 12V-085. Vehicles included in that campaign are not included in this recall.

A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source may result in a fire.

Owners may take their vehicles to dealers and the dealers will perform a free inspection of the rear structure. On vehicles in the recall that are not equipped with a tow hitch, Chrysler will install a Chrysler designed tow hitch free of charge, provided the condition of the vehicle can support proper installation. On vehicles in the recall that are equipped with an aftermarket tow hitch, Chrysler will assess whether the hitch and surrounding areas show evidence of sharp edges or other puncture risks. If so, Chrysler will replace the tow hitch with a Chrysler designed tow hitch free of charge, provided the condition of the vehicle can support proper installation. On vehicles already equipped with a Chrysler designed tow hitch, Chrysler will inspect the area around the tow hitch installation, and if any installation issues are identified, they will be repaired free of charge. The recall began on August 1, 2014. Owners may contact Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753. Chrysler's recall campaign numbers are N45 (for the Grand Cherokee vehicles) and N46 (for the Liberty vehicles).

If the non-formed hub unit is installed on a Jeep Liberty 4x2 model (which does not use an axle nut for hub retention), the vehicle wheel will not be secure and a front wheel separation may occur, increasing the risk of a crash.

Timken has notified retail stores that have received the subject parts. The front wheel hubs will be replaced free of charge. Owners who may have purchased the affected units should contact Timken at 1-330-471-3693 for more information. This recall is being conducted by Timken, not Chrysler/Jeep.

Chrysler Canada has determined that an opportunity to incrementally improve performance in certain types of low-speed impacts may exist in certain vehicles. The company will carry out a voluntary customer satisfaction campaign to offer a structural improvement to mitigate the risks of fuel leakage in certain low-speed collisions. Chrysler will inspect the affected vehicles and install a Chrysler trailer hitch if appropriate. This action is not being conducted under the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

On certain vehicles, excessive corrosion could cause a rear suspension lower control arm to fracture and fail. This could result in a loss of vehicle control and a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the rear lower control arms.

On certain vehicles, the front lower ball joints may become contaminated. With continued operation, the contamination can lead to corrosion, accelerated wear, and possibly separation from the steering knuckle, causing a loss of vehicle steering control and a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the front lower ball joints.

On certain vehicles, two valve cover studs may interfere with the fuel injector and alternator wiring harnesses. Chafing of the fuel injector wiring harness may lead to engine stalling. Damage to the alternator wiring harness could result in an underhood fire. Correction: Dealers will add protective caps on the valve cover studs and re-route the affected wiring harnesses to provide clearance as necessary.

On certain vehicles, the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) input sequence may cause the Body Control Module (BCM) software to actuate the power door lock motors continuously. This can cause the lock motor bearings to overheat and seize. If this occurs, the door lock system will become inoperative. Correction: Dealer will update the existing BCM software and inspect the door latch assemblies.
