What's wrong, in plain English

Chrysler is recalling certain Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Grand Cherokee L vehicles because a part of the steering column, called the intermediate shaft, may not have been assembled correctly. If it was put together incorrectly, this shaft could come apart from its u-joint connection. When that happens, the driver could lose the ability to steer the vehicle as intended.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if your vehicle is included.
2. Contact your dealer, or call FCA US customer service at 1-800-853-1403, to schedule an inspection.
3. If needed, the shaft and related parts will be replaced 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 23V352000.
