The National Consumer Commission (NCC) notifies consumers about the recalls of certain Ford Transit and Ford Tourneo Custom, as well as Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles, as reported by the respective suppliers.

FORD TRANSIT AND FORD TOURNEO CUSTOM VEHICLES

Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa (Pty) Ltd informed the NCC that they are recalling certain six hundred and thirty-three (633) 2025 to 2026 model year Ford Transit and Ford Tourneo Custom models that were sold nationally, between 1 March 2025 and 20 May 2026. The recall is due to a fault that may cause either gradual deterioration in wiper function or a sudden, complete loss of operation. This condition may reduce or eliminate windshield visibility under certain driving conditions, increasing the risk of an accident.

JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE VEHICLES

Stellantis South Africa (Pty) Ltd informed the NCC that it is recalling eighty-two (82) Jeep Grand Cherokee models that were made available from 2021 to 2023. According to the supplier, the rear coil spring may not have been correctly installed.  The rear coil spring may detach from the vehicle while driving, causing a hazard to drivers and occupants of other vehicles. The vehicle may crash without prior warning and/or may result in injury to other road users.

Consumers who own these models are urged to visit their nearest authorised dealership for inspection and the necessary repair work, which will be carried out at no cost to the consumers.
