What's wrong, in plain English

Chrysler is recalling certain Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer SUVs. The pull strap used to recline the second-row center seat may catch on the seat trim, which can keep the seat back from locking in the upright position. Because of this, these vehicles do not meet the federal safety rule for seating systems. Dealers will inspect the strap and replace it if needed.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is included. 2. Contact a Jeep dealer to schedule the inspection, or call FCA US customer service at 1-800-853-1403 (recall number Y86). 3. The inspection and any replacement are free of charge.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 21V919000.
