I own a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. My vehicle was previously repaired under FCA Safety Recall 64A / NHTSA Recall 23V-413 for the rear coil springs on July 14, 2023, at approximately 32,792 miles. The vehicle is now affected by another rear coil spring safety recall, FCA Campaign 89D. This recall…
I own a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. My vehicle was previously repaired under FCA Safety Recall 64A / NHTSA Recall 23V-413 for the rear coil springs on July 14, 2023, at approximately 32,792 miles. The vehicle is now affected by another rear coil spring safety recall, FCA Campaign 89D. This recall involves the same safety concern involving rear coil springs potentially being improperly installed and detaching from the vehicle while driving. I brought the vehicle to Billion Motors in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, on September 29, 2026, at approximately 130,321 miles because I was experiencing loud clunking, shaking, and severe vibration. The dealership documented: “PER STELLANTIS, REMEDY IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE. FCA US WILL CONTACT BY MAIL WHEN REMEDY IS AVAILABLE.” I am extremely concerned because this vehicle already received the previous recall repair for this same rear coil spring issue, and I am now being told that the vehicle is again affected and there is currently no remedy available. A rear coil spring detaching while driving could create a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash. I am continuing to experience suspension-related symptoms while there is no available repair. I have contacted FCA/Stellantis regarding this issue and requested assistance, including review for repurchase of the vehicle. I am filing this complaint so NHTSA is aware that my vehicle received the prior recall repair, is now affected by another recall involving the same safety condition, is experiencing symptoms, and currently has no available remedy. I have also filed a consumer complaint with the South Dakota Attorney General’s Office/Division of Consumer Protection, which has forwarded my complaint to FCA US LLC and requested a response from the manufacturer.

I am filing this complaint regarding my Jeep Grand Cherokee L and Safety Recall 89D, involving the rear coil springs. My husband and I purchased this vehicle on August 10, 2025. We have two young children, ages 3 and 1, and purchased this SUV because we wanted a safe, reliable vehicle for our family. I recently received a recall notice informing me that the rear coil springs may not have been installed correctly and could detach while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. The notice also states that there is currently no repair available. Although my vehicle has not experienced a confirmed suspension failure, I am extremely concerned about what could happen if it does. What if a spring detaches while I am driving with my children? What if it causes an accident that seriously injures or kills someone? I understand that recalls happen, but I do not understand how families are expected to continue using these vehicles without a repair or clear guidance about the risks. I am requesting that NHTSA review the handling of this recall, the lack of an available remedy, and whether Jeep should be required to provide additional safety guidance or interim protections for affected owners. My family relies on this vehicle for daily transportation. I should not have to wait for an accident or injury before these concerns are addressed.

The radio has been replaced 3 times by the jeep dealer. The issue is over the air updates of the uconnect radio system fail and put the radio in Italian language disable foward collision safety features and other car features that I paid for need to also be enabled by the dealer that the dealer can only activate due to Stella’s firewall issue that prevents people to work on their own cars and require the dealership software to fix. The radio replacement does not fix issue even though they replace 3 times. They don’t actually have a fix and they are just putting band-aid on the problem. The update they send to the radio over the air corrupts the cars options.

I am filing this complaint regarding my 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee and safety recall 89D (NHTSA Campaign 26V562000). My vehicle is currently experiencing abnormal driving behavior that has caused me to have a legitimate safety concern regarding the vehicle’s suspension. The vehicle does not drive normally, and I am concerned that the condition may be related to the component addressed by recall 89D. I have contacted both the dealership and the manufacturer’s recall/customer assistance department multiple times seeking to have the vehicle properly diagnosed and to determine whether it is safe to operate while the recall remedy remains unavailable. Initially, I was advised that I could take the vehicle to a Jeep dealership to have the condition diagnosed and that the recall department could provide rental assistance because the vehicle was not driving normally. I subsequently received different information stating that rental expenses could only potentially be reimbursed if the vehicle was taken to a Jeep dealership for an alternative repair while waiting for the recall remedy. I am concerned because I have received inconsistent information regarding: 1. Whether the vehicle can or should be driven while experiencing the reported condition; 2. Whether the dealership will diagnose the vehicle to determine whether the current condition is related to recall 89D; 3. What interim repair or inspection is appropriate while the official recall remedy is unavailable; 4. Whether transportation or rental assistance is available while the safety concern is being investigated; and 5. What expenses, if any, will be reimbursed if an alternative repair is necessary before the recall remedy becomes available. I understand that an official recall remedy may not yet be available. My concern is not simply that the recall repair cannot currently be completed. My concern is that the vehicle is actively exhibiting abnormal behavior involving a system that is the subject of a safety recal

Pedestrian Alert/Forward Collision light warning always on after over the air update. Manufacturer removed option in settings to disable this feature and warning light has been on since this over the air update. Dealer has attempted repair however fix only works for a few weeks and then reverts. Over the air update also disabled paddle shifters, caused language on vehicle to switch to italian, and changed units of measure for speed and tire pressure. This is a blatant safety issue as it is not apparent to driver that speed settings have changed. The inoperable forward Collision system risks the public and passengers safety. The fix provided by manufacturer is temporary and does not resolve the issue.

Hard shifting occurred. Then service 4WD light came on dash. After an oil change, the light went away, but the hard shifting is still there. An independent dealer replaced my transfer case as well as completed an update to the transmission. The hard shifting came back even worse, with almost every gear. Took to a Dodge/Ram/Jeep dealership who completed a TSB 21-015-23. Their next recommendation is to replace the valve body and if that doesn’t fix it, then replace the transmission. They stated this recommendation came directly from Stillentis. Since this is a known issue from Stillantis, they should be issuing a recall immediately. Failure of the transmission can cause sudden power loss, unpredictable acceleration, stalling, and fire hazards. These things can in turn cause accidents and safety hazards.

Passenger seat lumbar air bag randomly over inflates and doesn't deflate to the point where the seat in not usable. This caused pieces in the rear of the passenger seat to bow out and push the plastic cover off, touching rear seat which holds a car seat for a 2 year old. This puts the passenger and rear seat passenger at risk along with possibly all passengers. This has been brought to a Jeep dealership and they left it inflated for now. They gave an invoice for 2 parts, the module and back cover. I was told it shouldn't inflate more and when I asked, was told it probably won't explode but I may want to move the car seat over.

Forward Collision Warning has been disabled since a forced OTA software update in August of 2024. Jeep has issued a STAR report to their dealers (S248A000013). Jeep acknowledges it is an issue, but fails to cover the remedy. Dealer wants $200+ to diagnose plus the cost of the software refresh. The system forces you to take the software update, removes a key safety feature, and then Jeep wants you to pay to restore it.

The initial safety issue began with the rear-view camera going blank and the Uconnect 5 screen freezing while the vehicle was operating in reverse. My vehicle's service record indicates that Safety Recall 24V-436 / FCA Campaign 79B was marked as "Completed" in the FCA system on June 19, 2024—even though the official recall was not initiated until around June 25, 2024, and no physical software update was performed at that time. To resolve the recall, I took my 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L to Performance Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Delaware, Ohio, where technicians updated the software to version FCA-MY24.U33.43-PROD. Immediately following this dealer update, several core vehicle and safety functions failed: Forward Collision Warning (FCW): The FCW system automatically turned off, and the option to re-enable it completely disappeared from the vehicle settings menu. Vehicle Safety & Operational Controls: Automatic speed-sensitive door locking and paddle shifter functionality were completely disabled. I returned the vehicle to the dealer, where technicians reflashed the software to restore the user configuration options and re-enable FCW. However, the Uconnect system remains dangerously buggy: Active Safety Alerts: The amber FCW OFF light illuminates continuously and gets stuck on. While ADAS features appear partially operational, the constant amber warning obscures real-time system failure notifications. Backup Camera & System Latency: The Uconnect system routinely freezes, introducing a dangerous delay in the rear-view camera feed during reversing maneuvers. System Instability: The Uconnect software randomly resets to the Italian language, resets rear-camera display settings, disables automatic door locking, disables paddle shifters, and causes seat auto-adjustment malfunctions. Stellantis has since issued TSB 08-221-26 (Software Version U41.10), which explicitly acknowledges that these exact software bugs—including the persistent FCW OFF light, screen freezes,

This model of Jeep has a documented history of having software problems that occur resulting in huge safety issues. I am filing this report because Jeep has not successfully solved this issue leading to regular ongoing safety concerns. Jeep themselves have issued several STAR reports on this, and a simple internet search will show thousands upon thousands of posts of owners with recurring issues. The specific safety concerns regarding seat positioning while moving, language change of instrumentation and critical alarms, metric changes to critical items like speed, and failure of front collision sensors. The issue begins with the driver seat changing its position while driving. While driving the seat will suddenly recline almost to a lay down position which is a safety risk. After some time fighting this, the car will eventually have a computer issue where the language changes to Italian, and cause the front collision sensors to be disabled. There is actually no issue with the sensors, it’s a software glitch that causes the sensors to be deactivated. In order to fix the issue, the car has to be taken to the dealership for several software updates and reconfiguration, resulting in cost to owners. Extended warranties do not cover software. The issue will then recur, sometimes within as little as a week, others after a few months. Researching forums, it appears this may be related to some OTA software update, but that hasn’t been confirmed as far as I can tell. This is a safety concern. Seats should not adjust on their own without driver controls being accessed, and collision sensors shouldn’t deactivate because of a software glitch.

Randomly, and without warning, the instruments, gauges, and displays will switch into a language I do not speak or understand (Italian). Coinciding with the switch to Italian language, cluster and radio display settings revert back to default settings, auto door locks and paddle shifter becomes inoperative (with no menu to enable), pedestrian emergency brake (peb) lamp or forward collision warning (fcw) lamp turns on with no way to disable, units of measurement including speed, temperature, etc. all change, and many other random settings change as well. ***This is clearly a dangerous situation because of all the functions and gauges that change, and the fact it is difficult if not impossible to recover from this due to the language of the setting menus, and the complexity of discovering and navigating through all these changes. I have taken it to the dealer twice, and they say there is nothing they can do and to wait for a possible software update, but none has come and it has been over a year. When this happens, even if one is able to wade through all the settings menus and change setting back, some items cannot be reset (like the FCA off lamp). According to various Jeep owner forums, some dealers have been able to reset something and temporarily correct the issue, but they charge for this service, and the issue returns randomly again. Here is an example forum discussion, indicating many if not all vehicles are affected: [XXX] Many people on the forum believe this issue did not start until a software update a year or so ago.

The original engine mounts are causing the engine to have a loud knocking sound at idle. Jeep is aware of the bad engine mounts and issued technical service bulletin #09-015-22. The CDJR dealer confirmed the engine mounts need to be replaced and it is a known problem. The 3 year/36,000 mile warranty just expired and they refused to replace the mounts under the powertrain warranty. Bad engine mounts are a safety concern because they allow excessive engine movement, which can damage steering, drivetrain, fuel, cooling, and electrical components, potentially leading to loss of vehicle control or a breakdown. If a mount fails completely, the engine can shift enough to affect shifting, steering, or throttle operation, increasing the risk of a crash.

My 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L experienced a sudden, simultaneous failure of multiple electrical, safety, and driver-assistance systems. Without warning, the instrument cluster illuminated a yellow warning light indicating that the Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system was disabled and unavailable. Concurrently, the steering wheel paddle shifters completely stopped functioning, and the vehicle randomly reset its primary language setting to Italian reverted its system units to Metric and Celsius. Furthermore, critical user customization options in the Uconnect 5 infotainment system—specifically the auto-folding side mirrors option, automatic door locking preferences, and passenger seat controls—completely disappeared from the settings menus.

On June 8, 2023, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles US, LLC (FCA) filed Safety Recall 23V-413 affecting certain 2022–2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee and2021–2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L vehicles to address rear coil springs that may not have been properly installed during vehicle production. An improperly installed rear coil spring may detach while the vehicle is in motion, creating a road hazard that can increase the risk of a crash for following motorists and may result in injury to other road users. Since the filing of Recall 23V-413, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has received twenty (20) unique consumer complaints alleging rear coil spring detachments occurring after the recall remedy was performed. These reports raise concerns regarding the effectiveness of the recall remedy and suggest the possibility of additional factors not addressed by the original recall campaign. Accordingly, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) is opening this Recall Query (RQ) to assess the adequacy of FCA’s remedy procedure under Recall 23V-413 and to evaluate the root cause(s) of post-remedy coil spring detachments. ODI will review complaint data, field reports, and FCA’s technical analysis to determine whether further action is warranted. To review the ODI reports cited in the Opening Resume ODI Report Identification Number document, visit NHTSA.gov.
