Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify steering pump recall completion and applicable park-outside instructions.
- Obtain VIN-specific clutch, transmission park, fuel pump, and pretensioner repair records.
- Test the reverse camera, reverse lights, and instrument cluster.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Jeep dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
