2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Owners Manual - POWER STEERING

POWER STEERING

The electric power steering system will provide increased vehicle response and ease of maneuverability. The power steering system adapts to different driving conditions and adjusts accordingly.

Continued operation with reduced assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service should be obtained as soon as possible.

If the Electric Power Steering warning icon is displayed and the “SERVICE POWER STEERING” or the “POWER STEERING ASSIST OFF — SERVICE

SYSTEM” message is displayed within the instrument cluster display, this indicates the vehicle needs to be taken to the dealer for service page 88.

Even if the power steering assistance is no longer operational, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. Under these conditions there will be a substantial increase in steering effort, especially at low speeds and during parking maneuvers.

If the condition persists, see an authorized dealer for service.

If the Steering icon is displayed and the “POWER STEERING SYSTEM OVER TEMP”

message is displayed on the instrument cluster screen, this indicates an over temperature condition in the power steering system. Once
