2019 Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee: Recall Alert
Vehicles Affected: Approximately 520 model-year 2019 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs
The Problem: The front differential may have been assembled with insufficiently hardened pinion gears, which can lead to the gear teeth wearing down, resulting in loss of power while driving and also of the Park function when stationary, increasing the risk of a crash.
The Fix: Dealers will replace the front differential for free.
What Owners Should Do: Dodge and Jeep parent company Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will begin notifying owners May 15.
