An electrical short in the power liftgate module can cause a fire whether the
SUV is on or off, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced
on Tuesday.

A fix for the issue is under development, according to the NHTSA.



Until the repair is made, drivers are being told to park their SUVs outside and
away from structures.

Chrysler is expected to contact owners via mail late next month, but owners can
contact the automaker directly at 800-853-1403.

Vehicles that had been repaired under prior recalls will have to take their
Cherokees in for service, according to the NHTSA.
