“While driving on the freeway, our sunroof window exploded and shattered completely. We were not around any other cars or an overpass. Thankfully the upper screen was closed otherwise glass would have fallen on us. I have read on Jeep forums that this is happening to a lot of newer Grand Cherokees, so it has to be a manufacturing issue.”
NHTSA complaint #11553642, filed 2023-11“We were in a serious car accident. We were T-boned and rolled two or three times. We had to be pulled from the upside down Grand Cherokee. Our complaint is the fuel fill line broke and poured 23 gallons of raw gasoline into the car. My husband was overcome by the gas and and to be revived twice. I had blacked out due to the force of the air bags. We were okay with now, we were removed before the car exploded. The gas should have never entered the cabin!!! If our experience could help someone else we would be relieved.”
NHTSA complaint #11605068, filed 2024-07“There are multiple safety recalls for this vehicle that I have only had for 1 month. I began the new lease with this vehicle beginning of March and the vehicle has been back to the dealership 4 times already. Issue #1: The middle part of the steering wheel where the air bag is located came completely off the steering. It was dangling almost causing my boyfriend and I to get t-boned. Since the middle part of the steering wheel was dangling and me trying to turn the wire got caught in the steering wheel not allowing me turn. I was also very lucky that the airbag alone did not deploy in my lap. …”
NHTSA complaint #11514912, filed 2023-04“The contact owns a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving 60–65 MPH, the vehicle made a rattling sound. The following day, the vehicle was taken to the dealer, where a technician installed a screw to secure a hanging plastic panel. However, the issue recurred while driving 45 MPH. Upon returning to the residence, the contact inspected the hanging plastic panel and retrieved a detached bolt that had fallen inside. The contact believed that it was a chassis bolt. The contact's friend secured the bolt in place with a small wrench. …”
NHTSA complaint #11767372, filed 2026-09, 50,000 miles“I am requesting that NHTSA investigate a potential safety defect affecting 2022-present Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles involving failure of the front bumper retention clamps. Owners of these vehicles are reporting that the front bumper mounting clamps begin to crack, break, or fail at approximately 30,000 miles — often occurring just after the basic warranty period expires. These components appear to be inadequate for their intended purpose and are critical to maintaining proper bumper attachment. …”
