Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling approximately 69,201 model year 2018-2023 Jeep Wrangler and 2020-2023 Jeep Gladiator vehicles equipped with manual transmissions. The clutch pressure plate in these vehicles can overheat and fracture during operation. This recall expands and replaces a previous 2021 recall (21V-028), and even vehicles that were already repaired under that previous recall must have this new remedy completed.
An overheated clutch pressure plate can break apart, potentially leading to a fire or causing damage to nearby vehicle components. This damage can result in debris falling onto the road or a sudden loss of drive power, both of which significantly increase the risk of a crash.
