Customer Satisfaction Notification # 733
Brake Pedal Shift Interlock
Revised December 1997
Please remove and discard the original notification letter (dated September. 1997) from your files and replace it with this revised procedure.
^ This service requirement applies only to the following vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission and floor shift:
^ 1984 Through 1995 Model Year Jeep Cherokee and Wagoneer (XJ)
^ 1993 Through 1995 Model Year Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Wagoneer (ZJ)
^ This notification describes how to install a brake pedal/transmission park shift interlock retrofit package on the above vehicles. The shift interlock prevents the operator from shifting the vehicle out of PARK unless the brake pedal is depressed.
^ This notification will be launched in four (4) phases as parts become available. The vehicle application for each phase is as follows:

1995 Cherokee (XJ)

4 1984-86 Cherokee and Wagoneer (XJ)
^ Notification to owners of vehicles involved in Phase 2 of this notification will begin in a few days. Each dealer to whom involved Phase 2 vehicles were invoiced (or the current dealer at the same street address) will receive a list of those vehicles with this letter. Involved dealers will also receive, and be billed for, enough Phase 2 Shift Interlock Packages to service 10% of those vehicles.
Parts Packages:
^ Five (5) unique part packages are required for this notification depending upon the vehicle and model year. PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE BEFORE THE APPLICABLE PHASE BEGINS.
Dealers should determine which parts package is required for each vehicle at the time appointments are scheduled to assure that the correct parts package is available when the customer arrives. Refer to the Parts section for details.
