Close to 200,000 Jeep plug-in hybrids are being recalled over a fire risk, according to a Monday press release from manufacturer Stellantis. “A routine company review of customer data led to an internal investigation that discovered 13 fires,” Stellantis said in the release. “All vehicles were parked and turned off.” Vehicles targeted by the recall include model-year 2020-2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe and 2022-2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe SUVs, per the release. Stellantis added that about 5 percent of affected vehicles may have the defect. “Vehicle risk is reduced when the battery charge level is depleted,” the release said. “Accordingly, owners are advised to refrain from recharging. Out of an abundance of caution, the company is also advising owners of these vehicles to park away from structures or other vehicles until the remedy is obtained.” The latest recall from Stellantis follows another one last month covering nearly 1.5 million Ram pickup trucks, in which the company cited a software issue affecting the electronic stability control system.  Stellantis said Monday the “remedy is imminent” and that those impacted by the new recall are going to receive notification “when they may schedule service.”
