What's wrong, in plain English

The high voltage battery pack on these plug-in hybrid Wranglers was assembled with incorrect fasteners securing its 200-amp fuse. This can allow the fuse to generate excessive heat, and if the fuse then fails, the vehicle can lose drive power.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your vehicle is included.
2. Contact a Jeep dealer, or call Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403 (recall number Z71).
3. The repair (inspecting/replacing the battery fuse, and the battery assembly if damaged) is free.

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 22V768000.
