Hello everyone,

Just a reminder of a safety recall that was launched last year.

The recall number is Y03/NHTSA 21V-028. This applies to certain 2018-2020 JL Wranglers and 2020 JT Gladiators with a manual transmission.

In some circumstances, the clutch pressure plate on your vehicle may become overheated through friction, which may lead the pressure plate to rapidly fracture. When a pressure plate fractures, it may result in cracks or holes in the transmission case, allowing heated debris to be expelled from the transmission case.

This clutch defect may look similar to a previous clutch defect you were contacted about. This recall supersedes the previous W12 recall (NHTSA ID 20V-124).

Your dealer will install a protective hose sleeve, reroute a wire harness, reprogram the powertrain control module and the instrument cluster panel. The estimated repair time is two hours.

You can learn more on recalls.mopar.com, or feel free to send us a message with your VIN. We are happy to answer any questions.

Thank you,
Jeep Cares
