| Jan 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Smoke set off smoke dector in garrage has a burning smell not plastic like metel and the car has a odor like nail polish on the inside. I am writing to provide an urgent update regarding my Jeep. Per our previous discussions, we had intended to coordinate a service visit to the Concord dealership. However, as of today, Jan 27 2026 at approximately 2:29pm, the vehicle has experienced a catastrophic failure and is no longer safe to operate or store in an enclosed structure. The vehicle currently presents a severe fire hazard. While attempting to move it today, the following occurred: Smoke and Melting Odor: The vehicle began emitting a strong odor of melting components. This was severe enough to trigger the heat and smoke detectors in my garage. Erratic Electrical Behavior: Even with the ignition in the "Off" position and the charging cable disconnected, the vehicle continues to make loud clicking and internal cycling noises. Total System Failure: The dashboard displayed multiple critical errors, including “Unable to detect key fob,” “Service electric charging system,” and “Hybrid System Failure.” Loss of Motive Power: The vehicle entered "Turtle Mode" and repeatedly stalled, rendering it undrivable. Immediate Requirements: Given that this vehicle has already undergone three unsuccessful repair attempts and now poses a direct physical threat to my home and safety, I am requesting immediate instructions on how Chrysler intends to safely remove this vehicle from my property. I have documented the alarms, the error messages, and the sounds via video for your engineering team to review. Because of the fire risk, I will not attempt to start, charge, or drive the vehicle to the Concord location (85 miles away). Please confirm receipt of this safety notification immediately and provide a plan for a tow and a final resolution regarding a buyback, as this vehicle is clearly non-conforming and hazardous. Will not let me upload videos and pictures | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | ENGINE | Turned on the car to the find the check engine light was on. Drive 5 minutes to my son’s school to pick him up. Turned the car off, then back on to see if maybe the check engine light would go off. Instead the check engine light, battery light and service hybrid charging system errors appeared on the dash. THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN OFF AND I WAS UNABLE TO PUT IT IN GEAR AT ALL. It left me stranded. I called a tow truck and about 10 min before they were set to arrive I tried turning it off and on again and it started like normal (check engine light still on) Drove 5 min home and it did it again in my driveway. Happened again when my husband started it to take a look. This happened to us one other time about 3 months after we bought the car. We’ve only had it 9 months. Both recalls have been completed. This is unacceptable. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | ENGINE | Was driving on a crowded interstate highway that runs through Denver when my 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe suddenly turned off. Luckily, there were no cars in the adjacent lane and I had enough forward momentum to get across that lane and onto the shoulder of the road. There were no warning lights or alarm sounds, the engine just turned off. After reaching the shoulder, I restarted the car and could drive it to a dealership. It is currently at the Jeep dealership undergoing diagnostics. This was an unbelievably dangerous event that could have resulted in a multiple car pile up with injuries or deaths (most likely mine or my wife’s) since we were in such heavy traffic at a speed of about 70 mph. We are the sole owners of the vehicle and have kept up to date on all recalls of which there have been several. We had one recall outstanding which was due to be addressed in a few days which dealt with a potential battery fire. Not sure how that would relate to this event. We have not had any similar event with this car in the roughly 28000 miles we’ve driven it. If the car needs to be inspected, that would be fine. I’d hate to have this happen to anyone else. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The vehicle has abruptly lost power and shut down while driving. This has happened while pulling out to cross traffic at intersections which have nearly caused an accident from the vehicle abruptly losing power in the middle of the intersection. The emergency braking system has also activated without any obstructions in front of the vehicle resulting in vehicles behind me nearly hitting me. The vehicle's four wheel drive system has also been inoperable with no parts available from Jeep to remedy this specific issue. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Vehicle hybrid system shuts down vehicle at random times. “Service hybrid system” warning comes on, dealership will not fix or acknowledge the issue. The battery is at fire risk if I charge the vehicle. Car has shut down and died multiple times, and does not respond for up to 30 minutes. Car has shut down while driving, putting itself into limp mode, citing the hybrid system. There has been 10 recalls on this vehicle, with new ones coming multiple times a year. Car losing ability to drive, or catching fire due to hybrid system, puts the driver and other drivers on the road in danger of collision or even death. All recalls have been remedied when a solution was available, but vehicle still does not perform up to safety standards. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Lost power and stopped on the highway Gas gauge was not accurate | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS | Issue has occurred at least 4 times: upon start, vehicle infotainment system appears in Italian language (difficult to revert to English as menu controls are now in a foreign language). Forward Collision OFF warning light illuminates on dash. Vehicle settings show all forward collision warning systems are ON. Servicing dealership has not identified any Diagnostic Trouble Codes with forward collision warning systems. Only way to reset system is dealer service via propriety manufacturer software. Multiple other Jeep Grand Cherokee owners reporting same problem: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jan 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The vehicle was serviced under NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V741000 (Electrical System), but the failure occurred. The contact stated that the NHTSA website showed "Remedy not yet available" regarding the remedy, and the contact was concerned that the dealer informed the manufacturer that the recall repair was performed. Most recently, the contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended while depressing the accelerator pedal. In addition, the vehicle failed to recognize the key fob. The contact stated that the battery had discharged from 90% to 59% in less than three days. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the dealer had not inspected or diagnosed the vehicle. The vehicle remained at the dealer unrepaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 3,425. | Crash: No Fire: No | 3,425 |
| Jan 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | My vehicle is subject to active recall 68C involving high-voltage battery fire risk in Jeep 4xe vehicles. Manufacturer has confirmed recall applies to this vehicle, but no remedy is currently available. I have been instructed to limit charging and parking due to risk of thermal event/fire. This creates an ongoing safety risk to myself, family, my home, nearby properties and others. My vehicle remains in use without a permanent fix. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | POWER TRAIN | The vehicle has experienced recurring safety-related issues associated with the hybrid electrical and propulsion systems. During normal operation, warning messages related to the hybrid system appeared, and the vehicle entered reduced functionality or became unreliable to operate. These conditions created concern about potential loss of propulsion while driving. In addition to propulsion concerns, the vehicle was subject to manufacturer recalls related to the high-voltage battery system, including warnings regarding battery overheating and potential fire risk. Recall-related service was performed by an authorized dealer; however, safety concerns persisted after service was completed, and confidence in the safe operation of the vehicle was not restored. The ongoing nature of the electrical and hybrid system issues, combined with recall notices involving battery fire risk, created a safety concern for continued use of the vehicle, particularly due to the possibility of vehicle malfunction or battery-related hazards during normal operation or while parked. No crash or injury occurred, but the condition raised ongoing safety concerns. The issue has occurred more than once and was not permanently resolved despite dealer inspection and recall-related service. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | TIRES | Please see attachment: | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I have experienced abrupt loss of propulsion events consistent with recall 25V-576. I have reached out to Stellantis repeatedly for resolution and no one ever follows up with an answer or a resolution. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | SERVICE BRAKES | I lease a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe that has developed serious and unresolved safety issues. While driving at highway speeds, typically between 70 and 75 mph, the vehicle has repeatedly lost power and begun to decelerate on its own without driver input. When this occurs, I am unable to maintain speed with traffic, creating a dangerous condition and placing myself, my passengers, and other motorists at risk. In addition to the loss of power, the vehicle regularly displays warnings related to critical systems, including electric mode being unavailable, fuel and oil refresh in progress, emergency/SOS system unavailable, hybrid power loss, and an airbag system warning. These warnings are documented and have appeared across multiple service visits. The vehicle has been taken to two different authorized Jeep dealerships and has spent nearly a month in service between them. Despite extended diagnostic efforts, neither dealership has been able to identify or repair the underlying issue. The problem remains unresolved. In addition, two active recalls continue to show as incomplete in the system and have not been successfully addressed. As of now, the vehicle is still at the dealership and is not available for use. Given the unresolved loss of power at highway speeds and the incomplete recalls, I do not consider the vehicle safe to operate. I have contacted both Jeep/Stellantis and Chrysler Capital in writing to request assistance and resolution. Despite providing documentation and allowing ample time for review, I have not received a response or acknowledgment. All repair attempts, warnings, recall status, and communications have been documented. I am seeking resolution because the vehicle remains unsafe, unreliable, and unavailable for normal use despite multiple repair opportunities and extensive time in service. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Dec 2025 | BACK OVER PREVENTION | The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced a brief intermittent display of the rearview camera image while reversing. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the radio software update was performed under NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V436000 (Back Over Prevention); however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where an unknown repair was performed; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where the contact was advised that the vehicle needed to be retained for servicing. The vehicle remained at the dealer for 7 months. The dealer had replaced the two side cameras, the control module and had performed the software update with the assistance of a Jeep factory engineer; however, the failure persisted. The engineer determined that the camera wiring harness needed to be replaced; however, the part had been discontinued. The engineer determined that the wiring harness needed to be bypassed, and a patch cord needed to be installed. The dealer called the contact and informed the contact that the rearview camera was operating as intended after the installation of the cord patch. The contact declined the vehicle repair with a cord patch and inquired about buy-back assistance. The contact stated that the cord patch reduced the integrity of the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 28,000. | Crash: No Fire: No | 28,000 |
| Dec 2025 | STRUCTURE:BODY | I am submitting this complaint to report what I believe to be a manufacturing or design defect involving the sunroof of my Jeep Grand Cherokee. On or around December 1, 2025, I discovered a severe water leak originating from the sunroof area during normal rainfall. Water entered the vehicle interior without warning and caused substantial damage to the headliner, interior trim, and other interior components. The amount of water intrusion was significant and far beyond what would be expected from normal wear. The vehicle has only around 45,000 miles and is regularly maintained. The leak occurred without any visible damage to the sunroof glass and without prior indication of a problem. The sunroof was fully closed at the time. This suggests a defect related to the sunroof sealing system, drainage system, or overall design rather than misuse or external damage. This defect presents a serious safety concern. Water intrusion inside the vehicle creates the risk of: Electrical system damage or failure, Mold and health hazards, Impaired visibility due to water dripping near the windshield, Distraction to the driver while operating the vehicle. In heavy rain conditions, this defect could reasonably occur while driving, creating a dangerous situation for the driver and passengers. As a result of this defect, my vehicle sustained significant interior damage, requiring repairs. I believe this issue reflects a broader defect in the sunroof design or drainage system rather than an isolated incident. I am concerned that other Jeep Grand Cherokee owners may be experiencing similar failures. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this issue for potential safety-related defects involving sunroof leakage in Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles. The severity of the water intrusion and resulting damage indicates a defect that could pose a risk to vehicle safety and occupant well-being. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
