The automaker explains that some of these SUVs have an incorrectly assembled intermediate shaft in their steering columns; this assembly-line error could lead to the shaft disconnecting from the U-joint where it attaches to the column, and if this happens, the driver may no longer be able to steer the vehicle.
CORRECTION: The sub-headline of an earlier draft of this story read “Almost 90,000 SUVs from model years 2021 to 2023 may have been improperly assembled in a way that could cause them to lose steering”; in fact, just one per cent of the 90,000 recalled Grand Cherokees are estimated to be affected by this issue, or around 900 Jeeps total. —Ed.
Before the U-joint disconnects, drivers may “notice play in steering and/or noise when turning,” says Stellantis. The company says it has not received any reports of crashes tied to the issue.
