Nearly 3,000 Jeep Grand Cherokees have been recalled over concerns that the vehicles’ wheels could fall off while driving.
Fiat-Chrysler Australia on Monday issued the recall notice for Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L models built between 2021 and 2023.
It was said that suspension flaws could cause the SUV’s wheels to fall off.
“The upper control arm mounting bolts may have been damaged during installation of the vehicle,” the FCA said.
‘This can cause the wheels to separate from the vehicle while driving, causing you to lose control of the vehicle.
‘Loss of control of the vehicle increases the risk of an accident, causing serious injury or death to the driver and/or occupants of the vehicle or other road users.’
