Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked by 58368 on August 9, 2021
FCA in November 2019 issued a second recall for 2011-2014 vehicles, but has still not devised a fix and all dealers will turn away customers seeking a fix because there is no direction from FCA and no parts made specifically for this issue.
I have a 2012 Grand Cherokee that is both listed by VIN for this recall and is exhibiting the issues associated with it. Without direction from dealers and FCA, I don’t know what to do in the meantime.
To understand the issue, a legal firm summarizes it well. In general, there is a non-removable power relay that manages the fuel pump. This part has been deemed a safety issue and it’s recalled under recall ID v62. When faulting, the vehicle will not start and/or cause a stall while driving. I’m experiencing mostly a "no start" issue, though with the coming summer heat, I’m also experiencing stalls when it does start.
I experienced stalling in My 2012 Jeep V6 this weekend. After driving for about 3 hours, I stopped at a parking lot and suddenly the engine sputters and shuts down. There was some squeaking noise that seemed like coming from the accessory belt. I started the car and it started up and shut down again. I checked the Engine temperature and it was fine. After waiting in the parking lot for about 30 minutes I started up the car and was able to drive home. The engine was rough at idle but runs fine otherwise. The neighborhood shop couldn’t find any OBD codes. Called two dealerships and they said they neither have the parts for the Recall nor a temporary fix. This is a serious safety issue. It’s unbelievable chrysler cannot offer a temporary fix.

If you guys had a previous recall done, then you already have an external fuel pump relay installed next to your fuse bob. These external relays started failing and just need to be replaced. You can use any good quality standard relay as temporary fix.
