What’s wrong with it?
A loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash. A loss of park function can cause an unintended vehicle rollaway, which can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Jeep Cherokee vehicles.
The power transfer unit (PTU) may become damaged and disengage the transmission and differential, resulting in a loss of drive power and/or loss of park function.
