SAFETY RECALL H03 - FRONT CONTROL MODULE

MODELS:

2008 (WK) Jeep(R) Grand Cherokee
2008 (XK) Jeep(R) Commander

NOTE:
This recall applies only to the above vehicles built from December 4, 2007 through December 11, 2007 (MDH 120406 through 121119).

IMPORTANT:
Many of the vehicles within the above build period have already been inspected or repaired and, therefore, have been excluded from this recall.

^ The Front Control Module (FCM) on about 60 of the above vehicles may have been manufactured incorrectly. This could cause the vehicle's engine to stall or not start and/or cause the windshield wipers to become inoperative. Engine stalling or inoperative wipers could cause a crash without warning.

^ To correct this condition, the Front Control Module build date code must be inspected on all vehicles. Those vehicles that have Front Control Modules with a Julian date code of 337, 338, or 339 must have the FCM replaced and the new module configured to the vehicle.
