What this recall means for you
The blower motor in certain 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L vehicles may fail. When it does, the windshield defrosting and defogging system can stop working, and the vehicle no longer meets federal windshield defrosting and defogging requirements.
An inoperative defrosting and defogging system can reduce your visibility through the windshield, especially in cold, humid, or wet weather, which raises the risk of a crash.
