    Jeep is recalling 2017-19 Grand Cherokee models due to an issue that could lead to unintended vehicle movement.

    “Due to an issue during manufacture, the Hydraulic Control Unit Anti-lock Brake System module may not perform as intended,” the company says in its recall notice.

    “If this occurs, the brake lights may illuminate or allow the vehicle to start and shift out of park without the brake pedal being depressed. This may result in an unintended vehicle movement.

    “An unintended movement of the vehicle may increase the risk of an accident causing serious injuries or death to vehicle occupants and/or other road users.”

    If you own an affected vehicle, you’ll need to schedule an appointment with a Jeep dealership to have a free inspection and repair carried out.

    If you have any further questions, you can contact FCA Australia on 1300 133 079.
