Stellantis recalled more than 32,000 hybrid Jeep Wrangler SUVs due to potential fire risk when the vehicle is charging.

Stellantis completed a routine internal investigation from a company review of customer data that found that eight Jeep Wrangler SUVs caught fire while parked and turned off, according to a news release by the automaker.

The recall affects 2021-2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe SUVs.

Six of the vehicles in the investigation were charging when they caught fire. Stellantis advises that customers may still drive their cars but should refrain from charging them and keep them away from structures or buildings.

How is Stellantis going to fix the problem?

Stellantis will perform a software flash on vehicles. If they find an error code consistent with what they are looking for, they will replace the battery pack, says Stellantis.

Stellantis will contact owners who this recall affects.
