High Pressure Fuel Pump

Reference: 01A / NHTSA 23V-263

Remedy available for
2021-2023 JL Wrangler and JT Gladiator

Remedy available for
2022-2023 DT Ram 1500 Pickup

 

SUBJECT

The High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) on about

49,900 of the above vehicles may fail prematurely. A HPFP failure may introduce internally failed   component debris into the fuel system potentially causing fuel starvation. Vehicle occupants may notice a Malfunction Indicator Lamp, service Electronic Throttle Control indicator, a fuel leak at the HPFP, or excessive noise from the HPFP. Fuel starvation may result in an unexpected loss of motive power, which can cause vehicle crash without prior warning.

 

SCOPE

This recall applies only to the above vehicles equipped with a 3.0L engine (sales code EXH or EXJ).

NOTE: Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall.

IMPORTANT:  Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory.  Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery.  Dealers should also consider this requirement to apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for service.  Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.

 

REPAIR TO BE PERFORMED

Vehicles delivered to the dealer in good running condition should complete HPFP replacement only(non-contaminated system).

If the vehicle is brought to the dealer not running, the technician will follow the current diagnostic procedure to determine if there was an HPFP failure. If HPFP failure was determined, replacement of both the HPFP and fuel pump module is required, including fuel system cleaning (contaminated system).

 

ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION

Dealers should attempt to minimize customer inconvenience by placing the owner in a loaner vehicle if inspection determines that complete fuel system cleaning and replacement is required, and the vehicle must be held overnight.

 

OWNER NOTIFICATION AND SERVICE SCHEDULING

All involved vehicle owners known to FCA are being notified of the service requirement by first class mail. They are requested to schedule appointments for this service with their dealers. A generic copy of the owner letter is attached.
