What's wrong, in plain English
Chrysler is recalling certain Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT and Trackhawk vehicles because the driver's floor mat may not leave enough room between the mat and the gas pedal. If the mat is too close, it can keep the accelerator pedal from moving all the way back to idle after you take your foot off it.

3. The floor mat will be replaced free of charge.
