| Apr 2026 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | I am the owner of a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee (WL) subject to Safety Recall 12B / NHTSA 24V-130, concerning high beam headlamps that fail to respond when the master lighting switch is set to the AUTO position. I contacted Flagship Chrysler to schedule the free recall repair. The dealer refused to perform the service, claiming my vehicle does not qualify because it lacks the Auto High Beam feature (sales code LMS). However, according to the official recall documentation, the recall applies specifically to vehicles WITHOUT the Auto High Beam Headlamps feature (sales code LMS). My vehicle does have the Auto Lights function but does not have Auto High Beam — which is precisely the condition described in the recall scope. The dealer appears to be confusing Auto Lights with Auto High Beam, and is incorrectly excluding my vehicle from a mandatory safety recall. This repair is required by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108 S9.4, and I am being denied a free remedy I am legally entitled to. I am requesting NHTSA's assistance in ensuring the dealer complies with their legal obligation to perform this recall repair at no charge. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The factory-installed Trailer Tow module in my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee keeps shutting down the lights in my horse trailer while on the road. The trailer lights been thoroughly inspected and no problem with the lights or wiring could be found. The Jeep dealer said the Jeep is "functioning as designed." Apparently, it is designed to shut down all the trailer lights at the most minor change in the current. It is a huge safety issue for me, my horse and anyone that may be behind us. I will be driving along and a "check trailer lights" message comes on - when that happens, I know I have no trailer lights because the Jeep has shut them down. The lights will not go back on until the car reboots, which means it has to be turned off for 15 minutes or so. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | This vehicle has experienced repeated mechanical and electronic failures since delivery, including hybrid drivetrain faults, heating system malfunctions, and multiple diagnostic repair attempts. The vehicle is also subject to active Safety Recall 78C, which identifies a manufacturing defect that may cause catastrophic engine failure and vehicle fire risk. The manufacturer has acknowledged that a repair remedy is currently unavailable. The dealership that sold and serviced the vehicle has also recently ceased operations following acquisition by Carvana. These conditions materially impair the vehicle’s safety, reliability, and usability. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Apr 2026 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Hello, I am reaching out regarding a serious safety issue involving my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe under an active recall (78C), which Stellantis has acknowledged can cause an engine fire or sudden loss of vehicle function. Despite the severity of this recall, there is currently no remedy available. I have contacted Stellantis corporate multiple times and have been met with consistently poor customer service, including being told I am not allowed to open another case because my issue is “irrelevant” due to it involving a recall. I am leasing a vehicle that is not safe to drive, with a known fire risk and no repair solution. I have formally requested that Stellantis buy back the vehicle without penalty given the safety risk and inability to use the vehicle as intended. They have refused to accept the vehicle back or offer any meaningful resolution. This raises serious concerns about consumer safety and corporate accountability—particularly when a manufacturer acknowledges a defect but refuses to take responsibility for removing unsafe vehicles from the road. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Vehicle battery(s) consistently fail. Batteries have already been replaced once but they persist to fail especially if the vehicle sits for 1-2 days. This causes the vehicle to either not start at all, or starts, but then fails when you attempt to restart, once at your destination, leaving you stranded. No warnings. This was reported to the dealer when it originally occurred. Apparently there is a wide spread issue with this year vehicle due to a parasitic drain on the batteries from the vehicles electronics. Original issue was 01/01/2026 and again on 04/09/2026. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer; however, the failure was not duplicated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V766000 (Engine); however, the part for the recall repair was unavailable. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 32,000. | Crash: No Fire: No | 32,000 |
| Apr 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | NHTSA Complaint Draft I am filing a follow-up complaint regarding Recall 78C on my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe. This recall involves risk of catastrophic engine failure, loss of propulsion, and potential fire. It has now been approximately 5 months since the recall was issued, and there is still no remedy available. I have completed all other recalls that had remedies and have fully complied with all manufacturer instructions. Due to the safety concerns and lack of a remedy, I was instructed by Stellantis to obtain a rental vehicle when a loaner was not provided. I incurred out-of-pocket rental expenses based on this guidance. However, despite multiple follow-up emails, Stellantis has failed to provide any reimbursement process, timeline, or response regarding these expenses. Additionally, I have received conflicting and unclear guidance regarding safe operation of the vehicle, including whether it can be driven or charged. This has significantly impacted my ability to safely use the vehicle for its intended purpose. At this point, I have made multiple documented attempts to resolve this directly with Stellantis and have received no response. This situation reflects a lack of remedy, lack of communication, and failure to reimburse expenses incurred under manufacturer direction. Immediate action and oversight are needed. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2026 | ENGINE | I am [XXX] , lessee of a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4xe, VIN [XXX] . This vehicle is subject to three open safety recalls, including FCA Recall No. 78C (NHTSA 25V-766), which states the engine may be contaminated with sand from the casting process, leading to catastrophic engine failure, vehicle fire, or sudden unrecoverable loss of propulsion. Stellantis has confirmed there is no available repair and no parts — the recall status reads "Parts Unavailable" and "Incomplete." I am a father of three young children. My wife and I use this vehicle daily, including to transport our kids to school. Every day we face the impossible choice of putting our children in a vehicle the manufacturer itself says could catch fire or lose all power without warning. I reported this to the dealer, Westbury Jeep, on February 10, 2026. They acknowledged the danger but said that replacement vechicles can only be provided by the lessor, Stallantis. I then wrote to Stellantis's executive team. The only response came from [XXX] , Customer Care & Experience Executive Referrals Manager [XXX] , [XXX] ), who offered to cover two lease payments and a gas card. She asked me to send my lease information so Stellantis Financial Services could follow up. I sent it. Stellantis Financial never responded — not a call, not an email, nothing. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate Stellantis's post-recall conduct and contact [XXX] regarding my case (XXX XXX). Despite acknowledging a life-threatening defect with no fix, Stellantis continues to collect $590 per month in lease payments while leaving my family in danger. I need a safe replacement vehicle immediately and a full refund of all payments made on this unsafe vehicle. Stellantis's response has been wholly inadequate.

The failure mileage was approximately 30,000. | Crash: No Fire: No Towed | 30,000 |
| Apr 2026 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Vehicle is a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe (PHEV) subject to Safety Recall 78C (25V-766), issued November 2025. The recall states the engine may be contaminated with sand from the casting process, which can cause catastrophic engine failure, vehicle fire, and unexpected unrecoverable loss of propulsion. No remedy has been developed or made available by the manufacturer as of April 2026 — more than five months after the recall was issued. The manufacturer has confirmed in writing that an active stop-sale and stop-production order is in effect on all affected 4xe models due to this unresolved defect. Despite this, the manufacturer has simultaneously deemed the vehicle "operable" and denied a buyback request, requiring the consumer to remain in possession of a vehicle that cannot legally be sold due to its unresolved safety status. The manufacturer's written target window for the remedy was February–March 2026. That window has passed with no repair available and no updated timeline provided. The consumer has been without full use of the vehicle since January 2026 and has been paying out of pocket for rental transportation. The defect has not been confirmed by a dealer because no remedy exists for dealers to perform. No crash, fire, or injury has occurred, but the consumer has chosen not to operate the vehicle due to the known fire and catastrophic failure risk documented in the recall notice itself. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2026 | ENGINE | The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at 35 MPH, the vehicle stalled. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V766000 (Engine). The local dealer was contacted several times and confirmed that the part for the recall repair was on back order. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted by email, but there was no response. The failure mileage was approximately 9,500. | Crash: No Fire: No | 9,500 |
| Mar 2026 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | When accelerating, the car suddenly jerks and stops moving at a consistent speed. This happened multiple times over the last 8 months or so. Sometimes it happens immediately after backing out of my driveway. It has also happened while driving on a highway at high speeds (65mph) where I've nearly been involved in high speed accidents. There was a recall back in November that claimed this was a software issue, however, it has continued to happen. No warning lights come on. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I have had multiple issues with glitches in the electrical system. Specifically relating to the screen. It will shut off on its own, it will switch screens on its own and more recently, completely off. I was unable to get the black screen to turn on for quite a while, I turned the vehicle off multiple times, I also tried a hard reset multiple times for it finally decided to work. At times, the backup camera does not pop onto the screen. My issues are very similar to the recall, jeeps with electrical issues, but mine has not been recalled. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | Driving on highway, "Service Hybrid Electric Vehicle System" warning came on, vehicle lost all propulsion, needed to pull over on road and restart the engine. Almost got into accident with car behind me because of sudden power loss. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I am filing this complaint regarding an unresolved safety recall (Recall 78C) on my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe, which has now been open for approximately 139 days without a remedy. This recall involves engine manufacturing contamination that may lead to catastrophic engine failure, loss of propulsion, and potential fire risk. Despite the seriousness of the recall, Stellantis has failed to provide a remedy and has given conflicting and unclear guidance regarding safe operation. At one point, I was instructed to operate the vehicle using the gasoline engine only. I was later told Stellantis cannot provide technical guidance and to contact the dealership. The dealership has stated they have no clear direction from Stellantis. As a result, I have no clear understanding of whether it is safe to operate the vehicle, use electric mode, or rely solely on the gasoline engine. Restricting use to the gasoline engine also prevents use of the plug-in hybrid system, meaning the vehicle cannot be used for its intended purpose, resulting in increased fuel costs over several months. I have also incurred out-of-pocket rental car expenses during recall service. Stellantis indicated reimbursement would be available but has not provided a process or responded to follow-ups. Given the nature of the recall and lack of guidance, I cannot determine if this vehicle is safe to transport my newborn child. At this point, I am concerned with both the unresolved defect and the manufacturer’s failure to provide consistent safety direction, communication, or a path toward resolution. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Mar 2026 | ENGINE | I am writing to outline my urgent concerns regarding the 78C recall affecting the 2023–2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe and 2024–2025 Wrangler 4xe SUVs. This recall was initiated due to a manufacturing defect where casting sand remains in the 2.0L engine, presenting a risk of catastrophic engine failure, sudden power loss, or fire. The potential for engine fire or unexpected power loss represents a significant safety risk to my family. The possibility of fire, even when the vehicle is parked and not in use, puts my home and neighboring properties in danger. This risk is especially heightened during Colorado’s wildfire season, when any vehicle fire could quickly escalate into a larger disaster. Due to the recall, I am unable to use the vehicle as intended under the terms of my lease agreement. I cannot safely operate or charge the vehicle. Furthermore, the requirement to park the vehicle outside does not eliminate the risk of fire, which continues to threaten my property and those nearby. There is currently no available repair or remedy for this defect. As a result, the vehicle is unusable for an indefinite period of time. Given the unresolved safety hazards, inability to use the vehicle, and lack of a repair solution, I formally request that you initiate a buy back of my affected vehicle. This action is necessary to ensure my family’s safety and to resolve the ongoing hardship caused by this recall. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | My vehicle has an open safety recall (NHTSA Recall 25V-766 / FCA campaign 78C) stating the engine may be contaminated with sand from the casting process, which can cause catastrophic engine failure, fire, or sudden loss of propulsion. The recall has been active since November 2025 and the manufacturer states parts are unavailable, so the defect cannot currently be repaired. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | POWER TRAIN | I am submitting a complaint regarding NHTSA Recall 25V-766 affecting my Jeep 4xe vehicle. This recall states that engines may have been contaminated with sand during manufacturing, which can lead to catastrophic engine failure, sudden loss of propulsion, or vehicle fire. My vehicle currently shows the recall as open with the status “remedy not yet available / parts unavailable.” This means there is no repair available to address a known safety defect involving potential loss of propulsion and fire risk. I am concerned that sudden engine failure or loss of propulsion at highway speeds could create a significant crash risk for my vehicle, my passengers, and other motorists. Operating a vehicle with a known defect that could cause sudden engine failure while driving presents a potential crash hazard to occupants and other motorists. Owners are being asked to continue driving these vehicles despite the manufacturer acknowledging the defect and not yet providing a remedy. I respectfully request that NHTSA review the handling and timing of this recall to ensure a timely repair solution is provided to affected | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | As the car was driving the engine stopped. Is is on par with their 78C Recall for Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe. The car as noted by the recall is unsafe to drive after an issue has presented relating to the recall 78c. Stellantis refuses to start an early lease termination. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I am the owner of a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe which is currently subject to two urgent safety recalls: Recall 68C (NHTSA 25V-741) regarding a high-voltage battery fire risk, and Recall 95B (NHTSA 25V-766) regarding engine sand contamination. On March 13, 2026, I attempted to have these recalls addressed at an authorized dealership (Brooksville Jeep). I reported two specific safety symptoms: Abnormal loud engine noise during acceleration and shifting, which is a documented warning sign of catastrophic engine failure under Recall 95B. Significant electric range depletion (a 10% drop from 32 miles to 29 miles), indicating potential battery cell instability under Recall 68C. Despite these reported safety symptoms and the official "Park Outside / Do Not Charge" advisory, the dealership and the manufacturer's recall department refused to provide a loaner or rental vehicle. They instead placed me on a "waitlist" and instructed me to continue driving the vehicle. By refusing to provide a safe, non-defective loaner vehicle while remedies are "under development," the manufacturer is forcing me to operate a vehicle that is a documented fire and stalling hazard. This puts my safety, the safety of my passengers, and my property at risk of a thermal event or a sudden loss of propulsion on public roads | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | The vehicle was in Hybrid mode. My wife was driving and had slowed to enter a roundabout to yield to another vehicle. When she accelerated and entered the roundabout, the vehicle stalled / shut itself off and flashed Service Hybrid System. She had to coast to a stop as it lost all propulsion. The vehicle started again after shutting it off and letting it go to sleep by opening the door. This same issue happened while slowing, then accelerating into a roundabout while I was driving a few weeks before in "Electric" mode. During this event, it stalled in the middle of the road and was blocking traffic. I had to shut the car off, open the door, wait, then restart it by going to "sport mode" to get the gas engine started. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
