1C4RJKBG0R85533532024 JEEP Grand Cherokee LLimited

Right rear control arm snapped/severed!

No accident there is a recall on the seat.

No warning lamps were displayed relating to the recall. I was hit from behind while driving between 60 and 70MPH. I lost control and spun around twice before violently hitting a guard rail, perpendicular to the driver's side of my vehicle. The side/door airbags failed to deploy. My neck was thrown into the seatbelt and door. I suffered from partial vocal cord paralysis, tinnitus, dysphagia, loss of hearing, pain, and other symptoms due to the impact; my sternocleidomastoid and associated nerves being primarily affected. As a result I was out of work from May 13th, 2026 to July 3rd, 2026. I was not aware or notified about any recalls until after my accident. My vehicle was totalled.

Dead Battery. The Telematics Bix Module (TBM) is failing to properly shut off when the car is parked. Therefore it induces a parasitic drain on the battery. We have had the battery replaced by the dealer. This problem is known to affect 2022-2025 models.

Significant electrical issues. Screens randomly turn off and flicker which prevents driver from being able to see vehicle status including speed. Vehicle also has built in charge pad which over heats and concerned could lead to wires melting and fire. Vehicle has spent multiple weeks at dealership for electrical issues but no solution has thus far been found. Viddeo shows flickering but shut off happens randomly and have not been able to catch on video. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

September 2025 Collision (side impact) where airbags failed to deploy resulting in injury to driver and two children.

On XXX at approximately 630pm during rush-hour traffic crossing the XXX on [XXX], my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited L (11,800 miles) the brake pedal went to the floor and the vehicle would not stop normally. The vehicle was towed to the dealer. This created a dangerous situation in heavy traffic with my child in the car and could have easily led to a collision. The vehicle was promptly taken to the closest authorized Jeep dealer. They diagnosed a Brake Vacuum Booster failure along with Diagnostic Trouble Code P057B-00 (Brake Pedal Position Sensor related). I have video footage of the symptom occurring and photos of the repair diagnosis. This is a new vehicle with very low mileage, and this unexpected failure raises serious safety concerns about potential defects in the brake system. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this matter to determine if it affects other 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokees. Vehicle Information: • Make/Model/Year: Jeep Grand Cherokee 2024 • VIN: [XXX] • Mileage at time of failure: 11,800 miles • Date of purchase: 11/1/2024 No injuries or crash occurred, but the safety risk was SIGNIFICANT.

This car slams the breaks to a stop in the middle of an intersection while turning left with other cars across the intersection also turning left. It thinks we will hit but we are not going to. This has happened twice. Luckily, the driver behind us was paying attention both times and also slammed their brakes, avoiding a collision.

2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit Reserve was parked before a snow / ice storm and when we went to drive it 5 days later, after the storm, it would not move and made a loud explosion noise when I pressed the accelerator. I immediately turned the Jeep off and went to look underneath to see if I could see what happened. The rear brake pads and calipers were blown off, along with a bunch of broken parts and the air ride suspension was at its fully extended height. It's been to 2 Jeep dealers who can not explain what happened and Jeep says there is nothing they can do. We have only owned this Jeep, which was purchased new, for less then 20 months when this happened. If this had happened while driving, we could have had an accident and been severely injured. The Jeep is available at this time to be inspected. No lights were on prior to this happening.

Active Lane Management disengages itself upon start up. Sometimes says needs servicing - message disappears upon car restarting. Car states key fob is not in vehicle when it is. Car has turned on, not shifted into gear, and then not been able to be turned off. Steering input from the system is sudden and does not consistently match actual road conditions Radio screen flashes/goes black/freezes Emergency Assisted Braking system activates without a clear obstacle present Braking events are abrupt and unexpected during normal driving Both systems operate intermittently and without a consistent pattern, making the behavior unreliable Dealership has been unsuccessful in reproducing any of these problems despite picture proof provided. Has happened on multiple occasions - beginning in September 2025. Jeep/Stellantis unwilling to resolve. Safety Risk: The unexpected steering corrections and sudden braking create a risk of loss of vehicle control and increase the likelihood of a rear-end collision or other traffic incident. These safety systems are not functioning as intended and instead introduce unpredictable and potentially dangerous vehicle behavior.

In July 2025 with only 15,330 miles, I was driving my vehicle leaving a parking lot and I suddenly lost power steering assist in my vehicle. Power Steering light, check engine light, traction control light, and sensor light all illuminated, my odometer began flashing and a message on the screen stating " Service Electronic Stability Control". I safely pulled over and had my car towed to a dealership where they diagnosed an EPS C2 connector was corroded and did not have dielectric grease from the factory. The sensor was cleaned and greased and reinstalled, codes cleared and I thought my vehicle was repaired. In February 2026 with only 19,125 miles, as I was leaving for work, again my vehicle lost power steering assist. Again, Power steering light, traction control light, check engine light, sensor lights, auto stop light all illuminated, my odometer was again flashing and the message on the screen was " Service Electronic Stability Control." The vehicle was again towed into the dealership where they told me that they performed a power steering "flash" and that my check engine light was because of an engine oil pressure issue, they performed an oil change and cleared the computer. This is a serious safety concern that has resulted in towing the vehicle twice, and I received two different diagnosis. I do not feel safe in this vehicle and I do not want to be traveling with my child in this vehicle. I pay far too much money every month, on a brand new vehicle that we leased to be having these serious issues. Loss of power steering is not only a safety concern for myself, but others as well if I were to lose steering assist while driving. The problem has been identified at two different dealerships.

Seems to be electrical / speaker related (forums state its the noise canceling system) This is a safety issue as around 20% of the time at cold start the car emits an extremely loud booming base sound that lasts 20-30 seconds. Despite only happening at startup anything that can impair a drivers senses is extremely dangerous as it impacts the driver and anything with noise happening around them. The problem has not been able to be reproduced by a dealer and they also wont incorporate the TSB unless it can be. Link below to reddit thread and a youtube video of the well known issue. [XXX] [XXX] Also, there is a link to a TSB, which you have issued, but this needs to be escalated to a recall asap.

Component/System: Windshield/visibility system and possible body sealing or A-pillar water intrusion affecting interior and defrost performance. The condition is available for inspection upon request. Description of the problem and safety risk: I purchased a new 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Altitude. Within months of purchase, the vehicle began experiencing water intrusion inside the cabin, which has led to persistent interior moisture, fogging, and mildew odor despite multiple repair attempts over the past year. A significant safety concern occurs while driving: the interior of the windshield can fog or condensate suddenly and heavily enough to reduce forward visibility. When this happens, I must slow down and consider pulling over until visibility clears. The condition typically resolves within approximately 1–2 minutes but has occurred repeatedly during normal driving. Loss of clear windshield visibility while the vehicle is in motion creates a potential driving hazard for myself, my child passenger, and other motorists. Reproduction/confirmation: The condition has been reported to and evaluated by an authorized Jeep dealership during multiple service visits. Repairs have been attempted, including extensive interior disassembly to locate a water leak, but the problem has persisted. Inspection by manufacturer or others: The dealership and Stellantis (manufacturer) have been involved through warranty repair attempts and case review. An independent evaluation is being pursued to determine the root cause. Warning lamps or prior symptoms: No warning lamps or electronic messages appeared prior to the visibility impairment. Symptoms include interior moisture accumulation, mildew odor, and intermittent heavy windshield condensation while driving.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. While the contact's wife was parking the vehicle, the gear shifter was shifted to park(P), and the engine revved very high. No warning lights were illuminated. The failure had occurred three times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the failure was not duplicated, but the failure reoccurred. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle independently accelerated, and the contact slammed on the brake pedal to slow the vehicle. The vehicle was driven to the shoulder of the road. The vehicle was turned off, but could be restarted independently. The contact stated that the failure was a persistent failure. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer; however, the failure was not duplicated. The contact was informed that there were no fault codes retrieved. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 12,500.

All lights came on when starting vehicle. Had no power steering, blind spot monitors failed, etc.

I purchased my Jeep in 8/2024. Since purchasing this Jeep it has had an intermittent burning smell. I was told by the dealership I got it at that it’s normal for burning smells on new cars. Well 13,700 miles later it’s still doing it and a couple of times I have seen smoke coming from the hood area up closer to the windshield area. I took my Jeep to another dealership on 11/29/2025. They drove it and smelled the burning but said they have checked everything and can not figure out where it’s coming from. They had me pick it up on 12/24/2025 and told me to bring it back if it did it again. On 12/26/2025 I returned the Jeep to the service department due to smelling the burning 3 times during the 3 days I had it. The service department still has my vehicle as of 1/12/2026 with no updates. I have contacted Stellantis and they have not done anything. The date to the question of when this happened, I put in the last time it did it. The first time I do not recall exactly but I did contact the dealership in Feb 2025 to inform them my car smelled like it was going to catch on fire sitting at a stop light.

I had my brakes flushed by my local dealer in June 2025 at about 31,000 miles for routine maintenance. I was traveling to York, Pa from Gravette, AR in September of 2025. All systems on my Cherokee had worked flawlessly on the trip, as they had since its purchase new in the Fall of 2023. On a very curvy, hilly road in the Cactocin mountain area, I was braking often. The ABS system warning light came on, as well as messages that the automatic collision control, lane departure control and adaptive cruise control were disabled. I noticed immediately that my brake pedal felt mushy and went nearly to the floor. Basically it felt like an old car with no power brakes. I proceeded to Gettysburg. When I restarted the car the error messages had cleared. I continued but after a few stops all of the error messages returned. When I got to York, still Thursday, I went to Stetler Jeep dealership and asked to have my Jeep looked at. The service clerk said no because I had no appointment. I asked to at least do an Obd2 scan so I know what the problem is. He said no, it can’t be done without an appointment. was told not until next Wednesday. I only planned to be in York until that Sunday. Between York and Decatur, IN on way home to Arkansas the warnings reoccured 3 more times, a total of 5. When stopped with my foot on the brake, when no errors showing, I would sometimes hear a clicking noise behind the steering wheel and feel it on my foot. A dealer in Indiana and my local dealer in Fayetteville, Arkansas could not find anything wrong. Those error messages have not appeared again without any repair. In December, my brakes were dragging and the brake waning light came on several times, then remained on. I could release the brakes by pumping them. My local dealer flushed brake system as the repair and warning light was gone. Two days later, brake system warning light is on again. I am taking it back to the dealer again even though brakes seem to be working fine.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormal hissing and tapping sound coming from the engine compartment, with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the wiring harness had failed due to rodent damage. The dealer informed the contact that the wiring insulation was soy-based and had been chewed on by rodents. The dealer stated that rodent urine and blood were found near the damaged wiring, and the area was not cleaned. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was advised by the dealer to place mothballs under the vehicle to deter rodents. The dealer also confirmed that no protective covering or preventative measure would be installed to prevent a future failure. The contact expressed concern that the failure made the vehicle unsafe and stated that the contact was afraid to ride in the vehicle due to the issue. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact back to the dealer for further assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 3,332.

Jan 2025, both main and auxiliary battery completely dead August 2025, both main and auxiliary battery completely dead December 2025, WHILE driving vehicle goes into neutral almost causing me with my children to get into an accident. This is no secret that Stellantis is aware of this issue and does not seem to care enough about the safety of the consumer, yet prefers to avoid a bad mark against their poorly designed faulty vehicles to be in the public.

On two occasions after sitting overnight, the vehicle dash did not light up and would not start. Roadside was called on one occasion and was not able to jump start the car after about 40 minutes of trying. Dash would light up, but engine would not turn over. Tow company came and drained two jump start batteries before it would start. It was taken to the dealership where they had it for a week and said it was a glitchy software update. A month later the same thing happened where it would not start after sitting overnight. Had to be hooked up to a Dodge Ram battery for 20 minutes before engine would finally turn over. However, the battery voltage sat at about 13/14 volts the entire time, so it doesn't seem to be a bad battery issue. Auto lights have been off as well as STOP/START in case something happens on the road. Could not get it into the dealership for inspection for a few weeks, so hoping they can reproduce and isolate the issue. It sounds like similar issues with other Grand Cherokee's have been left without solution. This definitely needs to be looked into.

Alerted to shift to park when making a turn. Lost power to engine, was able to coast to side of road and apply brake and shift to park. Dash alerted to push run so I pushed ignition switch and it cranked back up. First time this has happened took to dealership and left for them to look over.

The car randomly stopped while I was going 50 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. The car then would not allow me to move off of the high way or put the care in neutral. The car just stopped while merging on to the highway at 50 mph. It’s unsafe for myself and others The dealer has not been able to reproduce the issue but they see a code they’ve never seen before. The car is currently being inspected by the dealer. There was no warning before the incident .

Randomly, the passenger and driver seat’s lumbar and massaging features power on. In the case of the lumbar systems, they inflate to the point of rupture, resulting to damage in the seating surface and the delamination of the rear seat panel. All of this occurred while driving.

This accident did not trigger ANY safety features for my vehicle. No: Automatic Emergency Breaking Forward Collision Warning Air Bag Deployment SOS activation.

My 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee was having failures with the Active Lane Management and Park Sense features not turning on. A visit to the service department revealed failures with both the front and rear facing cameras. While waiting for parts, I was travelling on the highway with the Adaptive Cruise Control enabled. (Not thinking about a possible bad interaction with the ACC.) In slowed traffic, my Jeep decelerated approaching a car, then suddenly accelerated. I had to quickly press the brake before crashing into the car in front of me. The Adaptive Cruise Contol should have disabled with the other systems have trouble with the cameras. The failure mode should have been to brake or shutdown, not to accelerate.

I have taken my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L to the dealership twice for a known recall 12B/NHTSA 24V-130 and issue with the automatic high beam headlights not working properly. The dealership claimed it was fixed and ran a recall update, but the system still does not function as designed. I am now within 500 miles of my factory warranty expiring, and the dealership is no longer responding to my calls. The safety feature remains broken despite repeated attempts to have it repaired. This issue may be related to a known recall or software defect reported for failure to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108 – Lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment., and is a driver safety concern at night or in low-light conditions. I am also reporting this issue to Jeep/Chrysler customer care and opened a case. I believe this should be further investigated as either a widespread unresolved recall issue or a recall repair failure that is not being properly corrected by authorized service centers.

Battery going dead when vehicle is parked Infotainment system freezing

A dash popup stating “Auto Emergency Braking (AEB) Limited Functionality Service Required”. I have taken it to my dealership and they say nothing is wrong with it.

My car shutdown from automatic braking and would not move, crank or engage into neutral. I was driving, turning at an intersection with the flow of traffic. Cars on both sides of me and behind me. It shut down as we were driving with no warning and would not start or move. My steering wheel locked. I had my childr j in the car and we were stranded in the middle of a crowded highly trafficked road and its nowhere to go and no way of moving out of the way.

When starting the SUV on a cold morning (1st start ) the engine will make a loud bass sound for a few seconds then disappears at times it will sound like SUV will blow up and it is not coming from the radio because I have the radio off and it doesn't happen at every 1st start

I have had this 2024 Grand Cherokee for barely 4 months and this is the second time I have gotten the notification “Automatic Emergency braking needs servicing” and “Right Lighting needs servicing” the AEB nor forward collision warning works and last time I brought it in they said the right head light was continuously running which is why it needed servicing and here I am 2 weeks later with the exact same issue.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was a loud bang from the rear of the vehicle, prompting the contact to pull to the shoulder of the roadway. The contact observed that the driver's side rear brake light assembly had dethatched from the vehicle. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 12,000.

The infotainment system at times will blank out black. While it doesn’t last more than a few seconds it does happen often.

This vehicle was purchased brand new Nov.29 2025 on Jan. 20 2025 (mileage - 1232) the vehicle was driven about 48 miles and once arrived the vehicle was placed in Park and turned off as normal. After 90 or so minutes inside came out to start vehicle and it would not start, dash lit up with multiple error messages : "Service Transmission Continue in D don't shift or turn off vehicle until you reach a desired location as you may not be able to shift again" "Service Electronic Stability Control" "Auto Park Disabled" "Vehicle not in Park" every feature on the car disabled. It would then not turn the power back off at all. Called roadside assistance and waited in 2 degree weather with my wife and child for about 2 hours to get towed to nearest Jeep dealer, all the while the power would not turn off to the Jeep. The dealer was still having an issue an hour later trying to turn off before we left. This vehicle is still with the dealer trying to diagnose the issue. This is a big safety issue that needs to be looked into as if I were driving this could have caused a serious issue especially with my children in the vehicle with me.

On multiple occasions while driving, vehicle gear blinked from Drive and told me place the vehicle in park. Unable to do so because I was in traffic, vehicle would no longer accelerate and completely stopped. I could not shift to Park and had to turn off the entire car. Once restarted, brake system was engaged and I could not turn it off until I restarted the vehicle again. I have had my children with me and while I haven’t been in an accident yet, it puts us in grave danger.
