  • Sudden Alternator Failure Causing Stall / Fire Risk (Recalls 14V-634, 17V-435)2011-2014

    Grand Cherokees with electro-hydraulic power steering subject the alternator to cyclical electrical loads that cause thermal failure of the internal diodes. The alternator can fail suddenly, stalling the vehicle without warning and, in some cases, short-circuiting and causing an under-hood fire. Multiple NHTSA campaigns cover the 160/180/220-amp units.
