Jeep Wrangler Recall For Fire Risk: 57,885 vehicles from 2020-2023 model years (unnecessary frame stud installed)

[Aonar]

"These recalled vehicles have an unnecessary fastener—known as a frame stud—that was erroneously installed during production. In a crash, this fastener might puncture the gas tank and cause a leak, which could lead to a fire."

I do not see the recall on my 2021 JLURD as of now.

What if my car isn't recalled now? Could it be recalled later?
Yes.

And now I wait.

here's the text of the recall

58k wranglers... how many were made in 2020-2023? I don't know the answer, but I'd bet it's a lot more than 58k. So there's a good chance most of us won't get this recall.

Edit: recall text posted above says they estimate 58% affected. So I guess they've made fewer than I thought

Given the wide timeframe, and the large number of units, I would guess this was trim or option dependent.

Is this for real? I mean I know there is a recall, but my 2023 Rubi VIN doesn't show any recall either.

And if that didn’t get ya, Ford had a back up

Don't worry, they've came up with an intricate fix that took years of development to get to this point.

Yeah looks like it's meant to be read as 58% of vehicles produced in the time frame of Oct 16, 2019-May 14, 2022?
