On this new '93-'04 Grand Cherokee gas tank recall thing...

Recently we've all seen where 93-04 Grand Cherokees are being looked at for bad gas tank design allowing them to rupture gas pretty badly during a rear end collision. What I've read so far is that the suggested recall is only on the Grands and not on the regular Cherokees, like the one I have, a '96.
You may have already guessed what I'm thinking about. Does anyone know specifically why my regular Cherokee Classic isn't included in this suggested recall? Like, are the same crash results not seen on my model too? The major design problem cited on the Grand is that its gas tank is too exposed, situated behind the rear axle. Well, my trucks tank is behind the rear axle too. Any advice?

Totally different vehicle. Not a concern.

It's most likely a bunch of garbage, just like the Chevy pick-ups that burst into flames on side impacks ... of course you need to set the proper amount of explosives and push the button to make your theory work.
