Chrysler Group has recalled an estimated 895,000 SUVs to reroute wiring for vanity mirror lights.
If a vehicle was involved in a repair related to servicing the vanity mirror and/or headliner, the wiring – located inside the sun visor – may be subject to short-circuit and fire if not appropriately reassembled by the dealer. This condition is not present in vehicles which have not had the headliner or vanity mirror serviced.

Chrysler Group is aware of three related injuries – each of which involved a vehicle that had the vanity mirror and/or headliner serviced.
Dealers will install a spacer containing a wire guide feature that will keep the lines properly routed, preventing a potential short-circuit during reassembly.
This spacer will be installed in all vehicles within the range regardless of whether or not the vanity mirror and/or headliner have been serviced.
The recall affects 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango models.
