Chrysler Group is voluntarily recalling an estimated 230,760 SUVs to install a new relay circuit that improves fuel pump system durability.
An internal review discovered a pattern of repairs involving fuel pump relays in 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs. Further investigation revealed some relays were susceptible to deformation which may affect fuel pump function. Such a condition may prevent a vehicle from starting or cause an engine stall.
Chrysler said it was unaware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition.
The fuel pump relay is located inside a power module which also helps manage other vehicle functions. None of these other functions, including airbag deployment, is affected by the fuel pump relay.
The recall covers an estimated 188,723 vehicles in the US; 15,898 in Canada; 7,126 in Mexico and 19,013 outside the NAFTA region.
Chrysler will contact owners to arrange a free repair.
