Jeep has issued a recall order for about 58,000 Wrangler SUVs from model years 2020 through 2023 because of the risk of a vehicle fire.
Jeep tells federal safety regulators that some Wrangler vehicles “may have been built with an unnecessary and unused frame stud.” In an accident, that stud can puncture the fuel tank.
Jeep says it is unaware of any accidents or injuries related to the problem.
Dealers will fix the problem by removing the stud and repainting the area around it. Recall repairs are always free.
Many vehicles are recalled, sometimes more than once. Manufacturers try to reach every owner to warn them. However, some may fall through the system’s cracks and are left unknowingly driving recalled cars. Check our easy recall tool to determine if your vehicle has any outstanding recalls.
