Component: STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE
GREASE APPLIED TO THE LIFTGATE LATCH RUBBER BUMPERS TO EASE COMPONENT ASSEMBLY CAUSED THE BUMPER TO SWELL, INTERFERING WITH THE MOVEMENT OF THE LIFTGATE LATCH PAWL. THIS PREVENTS THE LIFTGATE LATCHING WHEN CLOSED AND DIFFICULT TO OPEN WHEN LATCHED.
Consequence: AN UNLATCHED LIFTGATE CAN OPEN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS INMOTION, AND COULD RESULT IN AN OCCUPANT FALLING OUT.
Remedy: REPLACE THE LIFTGATE ASSEMBLY ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.
Component: SUSPENSION:FRONT
THE ECCENTRIC CAM ADJUSTER BOLTS IN BOTH FRONT LOWER SUSPENSION ARM-TO-FRONT AXLE BRACKET ATTACHMENTS MAY FAIL DUE TO ASSEMBLY MISALIGNMENT.
Consequence: CAM BOLT FAILURES CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO PULL TO ONESIDE WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED, RESULTING IN A POSSIBLE LOSS OF VEHICLECONTROL AND AN ACCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1993 JEEP GRAND WAGONEER. WHILE IN PARK WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED, THE VEHICLE WOULD DISENGAGE AND SHIFT INTO REVERSE INDEPENDENTLY. ALSO, THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, THE KEY WOULD NOT ENGAGE THE IGNITION.

THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD CONTINUE TO MOVE INADVERTENTLY AFTER THE RECALL REPAIR AND THAT THE STEERING FAILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 169,000.
I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT A SERVICE AGENT FOR ALL THE JEEP RECALLS THAT ARE IN EFFECT AIRPARK CHRYSLER WILL NOT HELP TO GET THESE FIXED AND HAVE BEEN VERY HURTFUL, AND DISRESPECTFUL TO ANYONE TRYING TO VERIFY THE ISSUE. ITS SAFETY AND URGENT ISSUE I AM A SINGLE MOTHER AND CANNOT BELIEVE THEY ARE BEING SO HARD TO DEAL WITH. *TR

Component: POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:LEVER AND LINKAGE:FLOOR SHIFT
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, IF A DRIVER HAS NOT PLACED THE SHIFTER LEVER FULLY INTO THE "PARK" POSITION AND LEAVES THE VEHICLE RUNNING, THE VEHICLE MAY UNEXPECTEDLY MOVE REARWARD AFTER SEEMING TO BE STABLE.

THE RETAINER CLIP WHICH SECURES THE MASTER CYLINDER INPUT ROD TO THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY, AND COULD WORK LOOSE.
Consequence: DISENGAGEMENT OF THE RETAINER CLIP WILL ALLOW FREE PLAYIN THE ATTACHMENT AND CAN ALLOW THE INPUT ROD TO SEPARATE FROM THE BRAKE PEDALCAUSING COMPLETE LOSS OF BRAKE APPLICATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.
Remedy: IMPROPERLY INSTALLED RETAINER CLIPS WILL BE REMOVED AND NEW RETAINER CLIPS WILL BE PROPERLY INSTALLED.
Component: SEAT BELTS:REAR/OTHER
THIS IS NOT A SAFETY RECALL IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL REGULATION 573. HOWEVER, IT IS DEEMED A SAFETY IMPROVEMENT CAMPAIGN BY THE AGENCY. THE CENTER REAR SEAT BELT BUCKLE MAY NOT BE ACCESSIBLE WHEN THE RIGHT (PASSENGER) SIDE OF THE REAR SEAT BACK IS FOLDED DOWN IN THE CARGO STOWAGE POSITION.
Consequence: IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION, THE OCCUPANT OF THE CENTER REAR SEAT MAY NOT BE PROPERLY RESTRAINED AND PERSONAL INJURY COULD OCCUR.

Component: STEERING: STEERING WHEEL/HANDLE BAR
THE MOLDED PLASTIC PIN WHICH CONNECTS THE UPPER STEERING COLUMN SHAFT AND THE LOWER COLUMN SHAFT MAY HAVE BEEN SHEARED PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF THE STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY INTO THE VEHICLE. IF THIS OCCURRED, THE UPPER STEERING SHAFT WILL SEPARATE FROM THE LOWER STEERING SHAFT.
Consequence: IF THE UPPER AND LOWER STEERING SHAFTS SEPARATE, COMPLETELOSS OF STEERING CONTROL WILL OCCUR, WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.
Remedy: A RESTRAINING SLEEVE WILL BE ADDED TO THE INTERMEDIATE SHAFT TO LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF STEERING SHAFT MOVEMENT AVAILABLE.
