JAKARTA - Jeep must carry out a recall process on its flagship model, Wrangler. This is due to a potential leak in the car's gasoline tank.

According to the United States Highway Safety Agency (NHTSA), fuel tanks in Wrangler could leak and may experience fires that could cause casualties. Although, until now there have been no reports of casualties due to this problem.

Jeep recalled 57,885 Wrangler units. As quoted by Autoevolution, Tuesday, March 28, the model affected by the recall process is production from 2020 to 2023. Plus 150 cars that use the Metalsa production framework in the period between January 10, 2020 to May 4, 2022.

Metalsa itself is a supplier of Mexican-based car frames which Toyota has also contracted for the 2024 Tacoma model which will also be launched soon.

Jeep will handle this issue by urging the affected car owner to be immediately taken to the official workshop. Later, the document will be checked whether the car is affected or not.

This recall process only occurs in the United States. Until now, there has been no information whether other countries or regions have been affected by this recall.
