Jeep Grand Cherokee: A coolant leak can cause a fire

Jeep-Grand-Cherokee-2018-2020-egr-ventil-pozar

Jeep is recalling 492 Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured between 2018 and 2020 to authorized workshops worldwide. The reason for the recall is fatigue cracks in the EGR can cause coolant to leak into the intake manifold. This may react with other hydrocarbons and air, increasing the risk of fire.

In an authorized workshop, the EGR cooler will be replaced with a new EGR cooler that is not prone to thermal fatigue. If the intake manifold is damaged, it will also be replaced.

The Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (KBA) monitors the recall under the reference number “14075R“. The internal manufacturer code is “03B“.
