What's wrong, in plain English

A connector for the front seat side air bags may not have been properly secured, which could prevent the air bags from deploying. This affects certain Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L vehicles. Dealers have already secured the connector on all affected vehicles, free of charge.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your vehicle's repair status.
2. If you have questions, contact a Chrysler dealer, or call Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403.
3. The repair is free, and the notice states all affected vehicles have already been repaired.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?

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 24V897000.
