NHTSA Recall History
2005 Grand Cherokee w/ 3.7-liter V6:
Water from the A/C evaporator may enter the transmission leading to increased transmission operating temperatures, expulsion of transmission fluid, and underhood fire. Dealers will replace defective seals, flush affected transmissions, and possibly replace torque converters.
2006-2007 Grand Cherokee:
The software in the ABS electronic control module may allow a momentary delay in braking when coasting uphill during certain conditions, which may result in a crash without warning. Dealers will reprogram the ABS electronic control module with new software that prevents this condition.
2007:
The antilock brake system control module software may cause the rear brakes to lock up during certain braking conditions. This could result in a loss of vehicle control and cause a crash without warning. Dealers will reprogram the ABS electronic control unit.
2007-2008 Grand Cherokee:
Front brake calipers of a certain lot may have been manufactured from an inferior type of iron, and may fracture without warning. Dealers will inspect the brake calipers to see if they fall into this lot, and, if so, replace them.
2008:
The front control module may have been incorrectly manufactured. This could cause the engine to stall while driving or fail to start and/or cause the windshield wipers to become inoperative. Dealers will inspect the module and replace it if necessary.
