My vehicle is subject to FCA Recall #78C / NHTSA Recall #25V-766, which identifies engine contamination that may lead to catastrophic engine failure, vehicle fire, or unexpected and unrecoverable loss of propulsion, potentially resulting in a crash without prior warning. The recall is currently listed as incomplete, with the remedy under development and no repair parts available. I contacted Stellantis Client Services to request guidance regarding safe operation of the vehicle while this recall remains unresolved and to inquire about any interim accommodations or support. Stellantis has advised me in writing that no assistance, accommodations, or compensation are available at this time and that I should wait until a remedy becomes available. Given the severity of the risks acknowledged in the recall and the absence of any interim safety guidance or mitigation measures, I am submitting this complaint to document the situation and request review.

My 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe is subject to two active safety recalls that have rendered it unusable for over one month. RECALL 1 - BATTERY DEFECT: Vehicle subject to recall for high-voltage battery issues. Stellantis installed software to throttle charging but has NOT replaced the defective battery components. This is a temporary workaround, not an actual repair. The manufacturing defect remains in the vehicle. RECALL 2 - ENGINE SAND CONTAMINATION (Recall 78C/25V766): Vehicle may have engine contaminated with sand from casting process. Stellantis's recall warns of catastrophic engine failure, vehicle fires, and unexpected loss of propulsion. When I contacted Stellantis, I was told there are NO parts available and NO timeline for repair. IMPACT: Due to fire risk and catastrophic failure potential, vehicle has been sitting unused for over one month. I cannot safely drive it. MANUFACTURER RESPONSE: Stellantis refuses buyback despite having no ability to repair these manufacturing defects. Software throttling is not a repair. No parts exist for engine fix. These are manufacturing defects Stellantis admits through recalls, yet they leave consumers with $80,000 vehicles that are unsafe to drive and cannot be repaired.
The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact was informed by the dealer that the VIN was associated with NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V766000 (Engine); however, parts were not yet available. The dealer confirmed that the recall repair could not be completed due to parts unavailability. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.
While driving in the Los Angelas area on March 24, 2025, on the 210 Freeway approaching the 605 Freeway the vehicle abruptly decelerated from 65mph to 45mph. A message appeared instructing "continue to your destination, do not turn off your engine, if you turn off your engine you may not be able to start it again." We contacted Jeep Connected who directed us to Cerritos CDJR. As we were heading south on the 605 Freeway the vehicle again abruptly decelerated to 28mph. This placed us in a dangerous safety situation as we were at the height of the afternoon traffic. The Service Advisor was able to determine that the Valve Body(VB) and Transmission Control Module(TCM) had failed. Also, both batteries were fully drained of their charge. The mileage was 4095. The comment was that the batteries contributed to the VB/TCM failure. We have continued to experience battery degradation with five (5) batteries having been replaced within the first year of ownership. We continue to identify battery degradation to the dealership but have received no correction to this defect. Over the past four (4) months we have documented "resting" battery voltage at a level where they are at or below 50% of their expected lifetime. While it is suggested that parasitic drain is the cause, we continually ensure that lights, radio, heating and air-conditioning and Jeep Connected are turned off when parked. I have documented to the Utah Division of Consumer Protection and NCDS these conditions. The ruling fro

The contact's mother owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle was difficult to start. Additionally, the transmission had failed to shift to drive, and the vehicle failed to turn off as needed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The contact was able to drive the vehicle to Lowe's and purchased and personally replaced the battery. The contact stated that the failure persisted, and the key fob was replaced. The contact stated that the vehicle lunged forward after shifting to drive(D). The vehicle also jerked while depressing the brake pedal as if the vehicle was attempting to accelerate. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V766000 (Engine); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The dealer was contacted and advised the contact that the vehicle needed to be diagnosed; however, the contact related the failure to the recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 10,782.
My Jeep does not charge when plugged in. I've had it at the dealership 6 times in the past 2 years and they are unable to fix this. There is a current recall. I am advised to not charge the vehicle, don't park near structures, don't park near other cars. I have no street parking in the village of Fairport during winter. I'm a teacher at an elementary school and there's no where to park away from other cars. I took my Jeep to the dealership after Stellantis approved rental reimbursement until a fix for the recall was developed. Rental reimbursement approval is in 30 day increments. I submitted my receipt to Stellantis for reimbursement as instructed. It's been over a month and I have no reimbursement check. I'm am not out over $2000. waiting for my preapproved rental reimbursement. I turned my rental in and picked up my jeep from the dealership for fear of never being reimbursed for the rental. I am now driving an unsafe vehicle that is being parked next to my home and near cars and busses at school wear I teach. I have email records of all communication with Stellantis/Jeep US customer Care.
Reference prior recall 68C/NHTSA 25V-741. Had Jeep serviced for this recall. Was advised the vehicle passed the software update. Noticing that when the vehicle is in Electric mode there is a loss of power when the % range is at the halfway mark. This was a prior issue as well with recall, 73C/NHTSA 25V-576. No point in taking me to a Jeep dealership to review. They will not do anything unless there is a specific software associated with the issue. Wanted to make note that the issue per my personal vehicle does not appear to be resolved. There is no public correspondence as to what Jeep is rectifying with the battery manufacture. Reporting that this continues to be a dangerous issue.
The vehicle is a leased 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee that was taken out of service due to two manufacturer safety recalls. The dealership retained possession of the vehicle for approximately eight (8) days to complete recall-related repairs. During this period, the vehicle was not safe to operate and no loaner vehicle or alternate transportation was provided. The dealership instructed us to obtain a rental vehicle, stating verbally that it would be covered. Relying on this instruction, we incurred rental and transportation expenses. After returning the rental, we were forced to rely on other private transportation, including Uber, solely because the recalled vehicle remained unavailable. Despite the vehicle being disabled due to manufacturer safety recalls, the manufacturer has refused to fully reimburse these transportation costs. Throughout this period, we continued to pay our monthly lease payment in full and had no reasonable means of transportation. The vehicle has now been returned. This complaint is submitted to document the handling of safety recall repairs that resulted in extended loss of use, lack of alternate transportation, and out-of-pocket expenses borne by the consumer due to a manufacturer safety defect.

I have this 2024 Grand Cherokee 4xe on lease and it has had multiple safety recalls since I have acquired this vehicle. The latest recall has no fix and can result in an engine fire. Not only do I not feel safe in this vehicle; I am unable to charge the battery b/c this can cause a fire. This negates the purpose of having this vehicle and paying a premium for it. NHTSA campaign number: 25V741. Jeep’s current recall number is 68C. Prior recall numbers were 24V720 and 23V787. I am requesting an early termination of this lease w/o penalty. I have filed a complaint with the BBB and contacted Stellantis directly and they refuse to take back the car due to a recall.
I am reporting a safety concern involving a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit 4xe. In under 15,000 miles, this vehicle has been subject to multiple safety recalls, including: Recall 78C – Engine fire risk (no remedy available) Recall 68C – Engine fire risk Four additional recalls, and Two engine warning events, indicating potential drivetrain or electrical instability The repeated nature of these defects, particularly multiple engine fire–related recalls, raises concern about the ongoing safety of this vehicle platform. There is currently no available remedy for Recall 78C. Despite this, the vehicle remains in active service under a lease, creating a situation where safe operation cannot be reasonably assured. I am requesting NHTSA review of: the adequacy and timeliness of remedies for these recalls, whether affected leased vehicles should remain in service when no fix exists, and manufacturer handling of vehicles with repeated safety failures.
My 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xE has been at the dealership service center since [Date] due to the recall identified as NHTSA Campaign 25V766000. The component involved is the engine, which is still installed in the vehicle and available for inspection upon request. The recall notice states that debris inside the engine may cause engine failure, resulting in loss of drive power or an engine compartment fire. Safety Risk: This issue puts my safety and the safety of others at risk because the vehicle could lose power while driving or catch fire unexpectedly. Confirmation of Problem: The problem has been confirmed by the dealership, and they advised that the remedy is still under development. Inspection: The vehicle has been inspected by the manufacturer’s authorized service center, but no repairs have been performed because there is no available solution. Warning Signs: There were no warning lamps or messages prior to the recall notice. I proactively brought the vehicle in after learning about the recall. Current Situation: I have been without my primary vehicle for an extended period and am currently in a rental provided by Jeep. However, I have received no timeline for a fix, nor any indication if Jeep will replace or buy back the vehicle. This indefinite delay is unacceptable given the severity of the safety risk.
On 01/08/2026, while driving approximately 55 mph in Scottsdale, Arizona, the sunroof glass on my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee suddenly fractured and shattered upward without any known external impact. Ambient temperature was approximately 40-45°F and cabin heat was set to approximately 80°F. There was no rock strike, chip, crater, or starburst impact point observed. The fracture appears to originate in the center of the sunroof panel. Vehicle mileage was approximately 21,924 miles at the time. No crash occurred, but the sudden glass failure created a safety hazard and driver distraction at highway speed and required immediate repair. The vehicle was inspected at Chapman Dodge Scottsdale (Repair Order 7444177). The area service representative denied warranty coverage and attributed it to “impact,” stating the glass can bow upward due to cabin pressure from HVAC, despite no identifiable impact point being documented. I am reporting this as a potential safety defect involving unexpected sunroof glass failure.
Electrical failure. Received the car about 5 months after liquids from the car were leaking on top of the battery, causing corrosion on the battery. Most recently check engine light went on and car began to overheat on its own. Hot air did not work and only cold air would come on. Car continued to say temperature too hot and began to smell like smoke.
Multiple critical safety defects since January 2024 purchase: TRANSMISSION: Sudden transmission failures with complete loss of power while driving requiring emergency repairs. BATTERY SYSTEM: 4xe hybrid battery system failed multiple times, vehicle inoperable. SIX UNREPAIRED SAFETY RECALLS including URGENT FIRE RISK (NHTSA 25V141000). COMPUTER SYSTEM: Repeated crashes affecting dashboard warning systems and vehicle controls while driving. ENGINE: Multiple performance failures causing unsafe loss of power. OUT OF SERVICE: Over 30 days total for warranty repairs. Problems persist after multiple dealer repair attempts. DEALER/MANUFACTURER: Stellantis refuses adequate remedy despite clear defects. Vehicle poses serious ongoing safety risk. Request investigation for recall expansion beyond current 6 unrepaired recalls.

Avis rented me this car with an active safety recall. The key fob even had a small sticker on it that had "Safety Recall" handwritten on it, indicating they were aware there was an active safety recall (these things are literally lighting on fire) -- and put me and my family's lives at risk. This is a flagrant violation of the Raechel and Jacqueline Houck Safe Rental Car Act. They refused to fully refund me for this glaring breach in safety.

I am reporting unresolved safety issues involving multiple open recalls on my Jeep vehicle, including a high-voltage battery recall and an engine recall with no available remedy. Jeep has advised owners not to recharge the vehicle and to park away from structures or other vehicles due to fire risk, yet also states that owners may continue driving the vehicle. However, the vehicle automatically regenerates battery charge during normal driving even when regenerative braking is turned off. This behavior was not explained in the recall notice and creates confusion about how to safely operate the vehicle while complying with the “do not recharge” guidance. I am also experiencing intermittent Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) warning alerts, which raises additional safety concerns while driving under recall conditions. Another open recall related to the engine currently has no available remedy and has been unresolved for an extended period of time. Despite the safety nature of these recalls, Jeep has declined to provide a loaner vehicle. Jeep Customer Care states loaners are at dealership discretion, while dealerships state they have not received authorization from Jeep. Jeep has instead directed me to an out-of-pocket rental reimbursement program that requires the customer to front rental costs for an unknown duration, which is not financially feasible. I am concerned about being instructed to continue operating a vehicle with known safety risks, conflicting guidance, warning aler

The dealer was contacted and confirmed that the part was not yet available for the recall repair. The contact then received a second notification for NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V741000 (Electrical System). The contact stated that the Hybrid battery failed to charge as needed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the contact was informed that the part was not yet available. The contact also stated that the vehicle was unable to start at the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue, and a case was opened. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repairs. The approximate failure mileage was 4,000.
Transmission sticks and does not change gears which causes motor to run with extreme high RPMs. Must pull over on side of the road to stop and reset transmission. There have been multiple electronic issues resulting in numerous diagnostics. Also malfunctioning cameras sensors. The local Jeep dealer said there are known problems, but no repair options at this time.
Battery system still malfunctions after both 73C and 68C were performed by dealer. After these "updates to software" my battery discharges to unusable levels. This occurs after a full charge and the vehicle sets for three to four days locked and parked. I have not had the use of my hybrid system now for over three months. I'm having to drive using engine only and getting only 22 miles to the gallon, well under the advertised on the window sticker mileage. Keeping in mind that the engine is also under recall, with sand in the engine, with NO remedy in sight until second quarter of next year. Vehicle is totally unsafe to drive and my local dealer is trying to find a solution, however, stellantis has nothing in the works to fix the problems. I'm [XXX] and a failing vehicle could lead to my injury or death. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The Active Lane Management (ALM) system shuts itself off which the displays a warning on the the instrument panel to indicate it has been disabled. If you try to turn it back on manually, it gives a warning that the system is unavailable and service is required. It will not allow you to manually turn the ALM system back on. I've taken it back to the dealership (9/7/25 repair ticket attached) where it was purchased but there were no computer codes shown to indicate what the problem was. They did an system update which did not fix the problem. Shutting off the engine and re-starting will clear this issue and you don't know when it may reappear (it could be the same day or possibly several weeks before it does it again). The service department has suggested I not shut off the engine but immediately bring it to them to see when this happens so they can run a scan for potential code(s) but they're an hour away and not always open when this occurs. My vehicle was purchased January, 2025 and has 10,300 miles on it now. I have a photo of the service required notification from September 4, 2025 showing mileage of 7,988 (attached). It had been doing this for approximately a month before I was able to get the photo. It continues to be an intermittent problem resulting in the loss of a safety feature of this vehicle.

On 2 ocassions the vehicle failed to execute a stop. The first was going down a mild hill at 20 mpg; I applied the brakes and the car started to slow and then the brakes felt like there was a shudder and released, and then engaged again and the car finally did stop. That same day on flat ground the same thing repeated. A second brake problem has occurred multiple times; likely 50 - 60 times. When braking and the car downshifts, the vehicle surges forward before slowing again, esp from 4th down to 3rd, of 3rd down to 2nd gear and 2nd to 1st. I have taken this to Reed Jeep in my hometown of Kansas City and not problem was identified. The car has been driven by others who also felt the same. These issues can put others at risk because they have occured when others are driving and they could injure a pedstrian or cause an MVA when the car does not stop. I have ceased driving the vehicle because of this and the battery fire concern and the engine failure from sand concern.
To Whom It May Concern, My name is [XXX] . I am a Florida resident and the lessee of a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe, VIN [XXX] . Due to repeated and serious mechanical and electrical failures involving the hybrid system, I have already retained legal representation. My Lemon Law case is currently being handled by: CPLG – Consumer Protection Law Group Despite this, the situation continues to worsen and the process has become unreasonably prolonged. Major components, including the hybrid battery, have already been replaced. Nevertheless, the vehicle continues to experience recurring failures. Importantly, the vehicle previously remained at a Florida dealership for approximately eight (8) months for repairs, and the issues still were not permanently resolved. At this time, the vehicle is once again in service at a dealership in Hendersonville, North Carolina. I have now been waiting for the third consecutive week with no clear timeline for parts availability or when the vehicle will be returned to me. As a result, I am forced to rely on rental vehicles on an ongoing basis, which requires changing vehicles every Friday. This is extremely inconvenient and disruptive for me and my family. With the holiday season approaching, the uncertainty regarding when (or if) my vehicle will be repaired and returned has significantly increased my stress and anxiety. This situation has gone far beyond normal inconvenience. It is now causing ongoing emotional distress and has negatively affected
Received an alert that the hybrid system had failed. We have not used the vehicle since all of the recalls have been received as we are too afraid for our safety and the safety of others on the road. The Jeep Dealer confirmed there is no solution or fix to any of the recalls and referred us to the leasing company. I requested to be let out of my lease since there was not a resolution, and I am too afraid to drive the vehicle or put my child in it and they denied my request. I have only had the car a few months and it is not fair that I have to pay for something that is a possible danger that I cannot drive because there is no remedy.

The vehicle is not charging to full capacity. I brought it to the dealership, and they informed me there is no available solution. This issue is extremely concerning, as the car poses a fire risk even when turned off. Very concerning: The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe is affected by multiple active safety recalls, primarily related to the plug-in hybrid system. The most significant one involving fire risk (NHTSA recall 24V-720 / Chrysler recall 95B) covers 2022–2024 Grand Cherokee 4xe models (among others). This stems from potential internal failure in the high-voltage battery pack, which can lead to fires even when parked or driving.

Dear National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, I am writing to report an urgent safety concern regarding my 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee Hybrid, VIN [Insert VIN], which is subject to recall number [Insert Recall Number]. I have contacted Chrysler/Jeep about this recall, but they have informed me that there is currently no remedy available. They have offered no assistance, and I have not been provided any solution to ensure my safety. I am extremely concerned about continuing to operate this vehicle, as it is not safe to drive in its current condition. I am genuinely scared for my safety and the safety of others while using the vehicle. I am requesting guidance from NHTSA on what actions I can take as an owner when a manufacturer is unable to provide a remedy for a safety-related defect. Specifically, I am seeking advice on interim safety measures or any required actions Chrysler/Jeep must take to protect consumers while the recall remedy is unavailable. I would like this report documented so the agency is aware of the immediate risk to consumers posed by delays in remedy availability. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.
This is a follow-up to my previous complaint. My 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee continues to show safety-related system failures that have not been addressed by the dealership or Stellantis. The main new issue is a malfunction in the regenerative charging system. I have this feature turned OFF, yet the vehicle continues to engage regenerative charging while driving. This indicates a failure in the system’s control logic. I am also experiencing intermittent AEB system warnings. The AEB warning light activates randomly during normal driving with no obstacles present, creating uncertainty about whether the system will operate properly when needed. I reported these new issues to the dealership, but they stated they cannot schedule service until after Christmas and cannot provide a loaner vehicle. Stellantis has also not offered a solution. I am forced to continue driving a vehicle with malfunctioning safety and braking-related systems. This is an unresolved and escalating safety defect that requires investigation and immediate manufacturer action.

Complaint Summary: 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe — Battery fire risk recall, instructed not to charge the vehicle, not to park near structures, and no repair available. Description: My 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe is under multiple safety recalls, including a serious battery fire risk. Jeep is telling owners not to charge the battery, not to park the vehicle near structures or anything that could catch fire, and that there is no repair available. This removes the primary functionality of the vehicle and creates a significant safety hazard. My wife is currently pregnant, and we are extremely concerned about the risk of a vehicle fire at our home. We have spent thousands of dollars on this vehicle, and it cannot be used as intended or stored safely. I am requesting NHTSA to investigate and hold the manufacturer accountable for providing an immediate resolution.
My Jeep Cherokee 4xe is under an open safety recall for a high-voltage battery defect that can cause a fire while the vehicle is parked, charging, or driving. The manufacturer’s instructions require owners to NOT charge the battery and to NOT park the vehicle indoors or near structures. This makes the vehicle unsafe to store or operate. Stellantis has no remedy or repair timeline available. When I contacted Stellantis, they refused to escalate the case or provide assistance. The vehicle poses a serious fire hazard, and I am unable to use it for its intended purpose. I am requesting NHTSA review due to the severity of the safety risk and lack of remedy.
The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was scheduled for a service appointment the following week. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The contact received notifications of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V741000 (Electrical System) and 25V766000 (Engine); however, parts were not yet available. The contact stated that the fire risk was a major concern with the unrepaired recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. In addition, the manufacturer was made aware of the concern regarding the unrepaired recalls and that parts were not yet available. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.
I am leasing this vehicle for 3 more years. This vehicle has been nothing but trouble since day 1. Last winter it stopped running on the interstate during a blizzard and I had to coast in traffic to the side of the highway. They have come out with more recalls stating the batteries can catch on fire and the engine can catch on fire with no remedy to fix them. I can't plug it in, even though it's an EV. And they're saying to park outside away from structures. It is the middle of winter right now. I shouldn't have to park outside. I don't feel safe in this vehicle. If no fix, they should be replacing these vehicles with no penalties.
The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed and approaching a stopped vehicle, the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking system failed to engage, and the driver needed to depress the brake pedal at the last minute to stop the vehicle. The contact performed a test of the automatic emergency braking system. The contact stated that while two individuals were holding a beige sheet, the contact drove towards the sheet at 70 MPH, and the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking system failed to engage while the vehicle was near the sheet, and the vehicle struck the sheet. The contact then drove towards the sheet at 6 MPH and struck the sheet, then the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking beeping sound engaged. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed, and the contact provided the recording of the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking system failure to engage as needed; however, the contact was informed that no failure was found. The Service Director at the dealer informed the contact that the engineers for the manufacturer stated that the vehicle was functioning as designed. The manufacturer called the contact and offered monetary compensation to keep the vehicle; however, the contact declined the compensation and requested a trade or buy back assistance. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer offered to trad
I am filing a complaint regarding my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe, which currently has a high-voltage battery fire-risk recall with no remedy available. This recall states the vehicle should not be parked in garages or near structures due to fire risk. This makes the vehicle unsafe to use as intended. My vehicle has also experienced four total recalls, repeated check-engine warnings, and it was in the service department recently (within the last week) with no mention of the battery recall and no resolution for the ongoing issues. I have attempted to contact my dealership (Fred Beans Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Doylestown, PA) and the General Manager but have received no response for over a week regarding options for a safe loaner vehicle or next steps. The lack of remedy, the safety risk of fire, the inability to safely park or charge the vehicle, and the dealership’s failure to respond place my family at risk and leave the vehicle effectively unusable. I am requesting NHTSA’s assistance in documenting and escalating this unresolved and hazardous situation.
My 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe (VIN: [XXX] ) has experienced repeated safety-related failures. With only 3,169 miles, the vehicle became inoperable shortly after purchase and remained at a Florida dealership for 9 months waiting for parts. The hybrid battery and related components were replaced. After picking up the vehicle, while driving from Florida to North Carolina on [XXX], the Check Engine light came back on. A cooling system failure was diagnosed, which caused critical safety systems to stop functioning: the forward collision warning sensor, radar, and driver-assistance features all became disabled. A technician also discovered that a component requiring nine bolts was fastened with only two, indicating improper repair or assembly and creating a serious safety hazard. I brought the vehicle to AutoStar CDJR in Hendersonville, NC, where additional issues were documented: rattling/thumping noise under the vehicle at highway speeds, wind noise entering through the front windshield, and the Check Engine light still on. The advisor noted in writing that the vehicle had been in the Florida dealership for nine months and now shows new faults. As of December 7, 2025, the vehicle is again in the repair shop. I no longer feel safe driving it. The repeated failures of the hybrid/electrical system, cooling system, and critical safety sensors, along with evidence of improper assembly, represent a significant safety risk. I request that NHTSA investigate these defects, as they appea
Vehicle is subject to Recalls 68C (Fire Risk) and 78C (Loss of Propulsion). Manufacturer states remedy is 'Not Yet Available.' I am instructed not to charge the battery and to park away from structures. I cannot safely park the vehicle at my home or use the electric propulsion I am paying for. The vehicle presents an immediate fire hazard and risk of catastrophic engine failure on public roads.
The Active Lane Management {ALM} disengages and will not come back on unless you shut the car off. Took to dealer. Showed him picture of problem. Dealer could not get it to do it and said there were no fault codes showing. It has done this numerous times.
Recall 25V-741 (Manufacturer Recall 68C) affects my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe. The recall notice states that, due to potential high-voltage battery cell separator damage, the vehicle may catch fire even when powered off. Jeep instructs owners not to charge the vehicle and not to park inside garages or near structures. There is no remedy available, and Jeep has stated that remedy identification may not occur until Q1 2026, with additional delays expected for parts and repairs. As a result of these instructions, I am unable to store the vehicle safely at my home, since my residence only has attached garage parking. My workplace garage has also prohibited these recalled vehicles from entering due to fire risk. The vehicle is currently kept at the dealership because it cannot be safely stored. Jeep’s interim support is insufficient. They offer only $60/day rental reimbursement, which does not cover a comparable vehicle, and only $50 per rental period in taxes, leaving owners with significant out-of-pocket costs while their leased vehicles cannot be used for an extended period. This places owners in the position of either paying significant out-of-pocket expenses for an unsuitable rental vehicle, or continuing to park, store, or charge their vehicles in ways that contradict Jeep’s fire-risk guidance. While the recall is not labeled as a “stop drive,” the instructions functionally prevent safe use or storage of the vehicle. I am reporting this because the current interim guidanc
The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while his wife was driving 50 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power. The driver was able to pull over to the side of the road. There was no warning light illuminated. The driver was able to restart the vehicle after approximately 30 minutes, and the driver resumed driving. The contact received notifications of NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 25V741000 (Electrical System) and 25V766000 (Engine), and related the failure to the recalls; however, the parts to do the recall repairs were not yet available. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where an unknown software update was performed, and the contact was advised not to use the hybrid system of the vehicle. Additionally, the contact stated that the vehicle failed to start intermittently, made abnormal clicking sounds, and was glitching. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repairs. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 16,000.
I just recently purchased my vehicle through Mears Mazda locally in Lubbock, TX. At first i did not notice how unsafe it drove due to the recalls. The more i drive the vehicle i notice it feels like there is a resistance in braking or slowing down and getting stuck in certain gears when i am going at a lower speed below 20 mph. It causes concern for me if i am driving in a bigger city or in a traffic jam as this could possibly cause a major accident if a malfunction occurs with the vehicle causing me to cause a multiple vehicle collision on a highway or street. I did ask the dealership prior to signing " Are there any issues known with this model type of Jeep or recalls?" They simply stated no. I have told them that since i had just recently signed my paperwork Friday and trading in my prior vehicle would it be possible to reverse everything, he stated no. I do not know the laws in Texas or if there is an alternate route i can go about this due to it being a safety issue. When I've contacted Jeep there is yet a remedy to fix this issue.
The vehicle has been inspected by the dealership, and they confirmed they cannot repair recalls 68C, 73C, or 78C because the manufacturer has not provided any remedy or parts. No warning lamps appeared before the recall, but the vehicle is now classified as a fire risk and cannot be charged. The dealership is holding the vehicle because they cannot safely release it back to me due to the high-voltage battery safety hazard. Stellantis has failed to offer any repair timeline, and I believe this is a serious safety issue requiring NHTSA intervention.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
