The 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee has 6 recalls, with the most serious being three separate issues that can each cause a sudden loss of vehicle control: failed brakes, a separating steering column, and unexpected rollaway.
A retainer clip on the brake master cylinder input rod may not be fully seated, which can let the rod pull free from the brake pedal and leave the driver with no braking ability. The upper steering column shaft can separate from the lower shaft, eliminating steering control entirely. There is also a shifter concern: if the lever is not fully in park and the engine is left running, the vehicle can roll rearward without warning.
On the body side, the liftgate latch can be blocked by an internal rubber bumper, causing the rear gate to swing open while driving. Two lower-severity recalls round out the list: one addresses a structural improvement to reduce the chance of fuel leakage in low-speed collisions, and the other, affecting only vehicles with the 5.2-litre engine, corrects an incorrect spark plug specification listed on the emissions label.
