CarsMultiverse/Recalls

Jeep's own number for this recall: 68C. That is the number on the owner letter and on the dealer paperwork. 25V741 is the number NHTSA gave the same campaign, and the number this page is filed under. They are one recall, written two ways.

Owners of these vehicles are told to park away from buildings: the wording the agency uses when a car can catch fire with the ignition off.

What the notice says today

The defect

The remedy

Owners are advised to park outside and away from structures and not to charge their vehicles until the remedy is completed.

The remaining owner notification letters will be mailed at a later date. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is 68C. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning November 6, 2025. Vehicles that were previously recalled for the same issue under NHTSA Recalls 24V720 and 23V787 will need to have the new remedy performed.

What it said before

Nothing has changed while we have been watching. We last read the wording of this campaign on 9 September 2026, and it matched the copy we already held.

That copy hashes to 16558fa625d4b97e14eb569e2bd414bb…, so if it is ever edited the change is provable rather than a matter of memory.

This is one of 1,827 notices in the record whose component field names electrical system. Across that group the median wait before owners were written to was 41 days.

Last checked . No change has been recorded in the wording.
