I would say the âlocationâ of the weld looks okay, so FCA must also be evaluating the quality of the weld. That is ecouraging. Whatâs not encouraging is that most owners have similar looking welds on their track bar bracket that are NOT part of the recall.Took my 18 JLU to dealer in Cary, NC yesterday and they said I was the 11th or 12th inspection for the recall and no problems yet. Of course, that meant I would have the weld issue and sure enough the welds look like swiss cheese.
Here are the images:
Would appreciate any feedback on how bad this is, the service manager said FCA should be out to inspect next week but I am not confident in repairs on a purchase like this.
Clearly this weld fails the porosity spec of 6.4mm per 25mm of weld.
