What happened

Chrysler is recalling certain 2014 model year Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, and Jeep Cherokee vehicles manufactured between January and April 2014. The recall addresses a problem with the adaptive cruise control system where the vehicle may continue to accelerate briefly after the driver releases the accelerator pedal when trying to increase speed above the cruise control setting. This unintended acceleration could increase the risk of a crash.

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the Driver Assistance System Module at no charge to fix the problem. The recall began in June 2014. Affected owners should contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403 and reference recall number P31.
