SAFETY RECALL TO REPLACE YOUR VEHICLE'S FRONT BRAKE ROTORS

Dear Chrysler Vehicle Owner:

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

Chrysler Corporation has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in some 1990-1991 4-wheel drive Jeep Cherokee, Wagoneer, Comanche and Wrangler vehicles; 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Wagoneer vehicles; 1988-1991 Eagle Premier vehicles; and 1990-1991 Dodge Monaco vehicles.

The problem is...

Corrosion of the front brake rotors on your vehicle (identified on the enclosed form), may cause separation of the rotor disc from the center hub section. This condition results from operating the vehicle for extended periods in geographic areas using large amounts of road salt for ice and snow removal. Rotor separation could result in a reduction of brake effectiveness for the affected wheel which may increase stopping distance, cause the vehicle to pull to one side when braking and cause an accident without prior warning.

What Chrysler and your dealer will do...

Chrysler will repair your vehicle free of charge (parts and labor). To do this, your dealer will replace both front brake rotors. The work will take less than one hour to complete. However, additional time may be necessary depending on how dealer appointments are scheduled and processed. This recall does NOT include replacement of any other brake components. If other brake service is required (brake shoe and lining, caliper, etc.), the additional associated costs are the owner's responsibility.

What you must do to ensure your safety...

^ Simply contact your dealer right away to schedule a service appointment. Ask the dealer to hold the parts for your vehicle or to order them before your appointment.

^ Bring the enclosed Owner Notification Form with you to your dealer. It explains the required service to the dealer.

If you need help...

If you have trouble getting your vehicle repaired, please call the Chrysler Customer Center, toll free, at 1-800-992-1997. A representative will assist you in getting your vehicle repaired. If your dealer fails or is unable to remedy this defect without charge and within a reasonable time, you may submit a written complaint to the Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 400 Seventh Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20590, or call the Toll Free Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393. (Washington, D.C. area residents may call 1-202-366-0123.)

We're sorry for any inconvenience, but we are sincerely concerned about your safety. Thanks for your attention to this important matter.
