EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS

Issued by Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) · Reported Oct 14, 2021 · 7,082 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L vehicles not equipped with automatic high beams. When the master lighting switch is set to the auto position, the high beam headlights will not activate unless the master lighting switch is first changed to the 'on" position. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Consequence

Difficulty activating the headlight high beams may result in reduced visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will reprogram the vehicles, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 28, 2021. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is Y66.
