Consumer Description

While turning in a busy intersection recently at night my sons Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk quit moving all at once. Nearly getting hit, my son was able to get out of the vehicle and all was avoided. It appears the transfer case part number 68282447AB was defective and broke. This part has been recalled in some Jeep vehicles. Apparently not this one and this is a very dangerous problem Jeep should make right. Now it is in the repair shop with replacement parts months backordered.
