2023 Jeep Wagoneer complaints

The contact owns a 2023 Jeep Wagoneer. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the parking brake was independently engaged. Additionally, the front driver’s and rear passenger’s side windows would independently lower while driving. The contact stated that the vehicle would jerk while depressing the accelerator pedal, with the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact would restart the vehicle after each failure to resume normal operation. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer where the vehicle was serviced.

After one visit, the check engine warning light returned soon after exiting the dealer parking lot and the vehicle was towed back to the dealer for service. The contact stated that the catalytic converters were replaced, and several electrical features were reset; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 2,500.

My car recently hit 10k miles. We had a safe trip to Florida the week before no issues or signs of any issue. Two days ago I take my son to the pool at my mother in laws house and go to visit my parents and when I start to leave and pull out of the driveway my car stops and my steering wheel won’t turn but a certain amount. So I had to pull back and try multiple times. Every time I turn the wheel a certain amount it starts to sound like something is slowly cracking under the car. And the car just stops moving if you try to turn the wheel too much. I continue on my way home in Canton, Ga from Woodstock, Ga which is about a thirty minute drive and I have to take wide turns in order to make any turn and not get stuck or stopped. Vehicle works fine going straight but I literally cannot turn my wheel to a certain point or the car stops. It is at the dealership now and they can’t make it do the same thing day after they get into it but I sent them videos as it was happening because my neighbors had to help me park it in my driveway when I got home so I got it on recording how it stops and doesn’t turn properly. I have videos I can provide it will not let me upload

2023 Jeep Wagoneer steering wheel became locked with alerts on the dashboard "Power Steering Unavailable Service Required." Thank GOD I parked in a parking lot when I went food shopping. This has happened twice before to my wife in the garage but no alerts came out. I spent two hours stuck and 1 hour waiting for a tow truck. It was a cold day and after the heat to the seats and steering were on, the steering became soft and I was able to steer the car home. I took car to dealership the next day and they gave me a loaner. Two days later I went to the dealership to find out what is going on. They said it may be up to six weeks to get a part. As per the rep who I know very well, she said there have been 59 reports across US and there are only 19 parts available. It is a module issue but it is built into the steering wheel column. I read other reports and they are scary [XXX] I had a problem with a 2021 Chrysler Pacifica owned by the same Jeep, Dodge, and Chrysler manufacturer. I think the US gov needs to step in and dissolve this company and everyone return their vehicles and send a message to other car manufacturers.

This vehicle has a persistent brake fluid leaking problem. Anytime the vehicle is parked at a ~ 7% incline, where the front of the car is lower than the rear, the car leaks material amounts of brake fluid. The dealer has tried many times (over 4 times) to fix the issue by replacing all relevant parts… it still leaks. Based on my observations, there appears to be a design flaw in the brake fluid reservoir and the reservoir cap, it can not keep the fluid in the system. The risks arising from the persistent leaks include: 1.) catastrophic brake failure due to insufficient fluid in the system, 2.) fire risk, engine compartment has flammable brake fluid places it should not be, 3.) environmental contamination risk, and 4.) slip and fall risk from leaving slippery puddles of hazardous material ever place this vehicle is parked on an incline.

Driving on 129 in hamilton ohio at 6 am I hit debri in the road wrapped in black plastic I didn’t see it until it was too late. It was dark outside.911 operator knew it was there but didn’t have police there with lights on to let drivers know. It was in both lanes on my side of road I hit it and tore up the front end. I still dont know what I hit and haven’t heard back from police others hit it too. This was a rental car I was driving. Is there a way I can get reimbursed for the damages I had to report to my insurance since the police knew it was In the road and didn’t not have anyone marking it?

This incident occurred today when I was on the slower lane and moved to the left lane in order to accelerate. The transmission didn't respond to my acceleration as a result the gear wouldn't shift to higher level and my vehicle remained stuck at the lower level. This could have been catastrophic to my family if there traffic was moving faster but because of slow moving traffic I was able to pull it over the shoulder and put it in neutral and then was able to drive. I haven't shown this issue to the dealer yet. I have checked about this problem online and multiple people have reported the same issue and dealership couldn't fix it. It happens when I have to accelerate from a 10 miles per hour to a higher speed. No, th vehicle hasn't been inspected by police or insurance or manufacturer. No failure was displayed anywhere.

After very minor accident the car crash symbol and the car in lane symbol came on and will not turn off. Took to dealer and they said there was no update to correct the problem. Feel unsafe in a car that should be safe since it's new. And has error message of limited functionality.

Driving vehicle with no vehicles within 100 yards directly in front of vehicle and with 1 car in the lane to vehicles right on a 2-lane road. Vehicle on the right was about 30-40 car lengths ahead of my own vehicle. The collision detection system and emergency braking system sounded off, lit up the dash panel stating BREAK, and then applied the brakes while going 50 mph with drivers behind me. The driver behind me had to swerve onto the left median to avoid colliding with my vehicle. The obvious issue here is that no vehicle was within any distance that should have triggered my collision avoidance system, but yet it went off unexpectedly and almost caused the person behind me to wreck their vehicle into mine. No check engine light or other service lights were on at the time of this event or subsequent events I have experience since this first event occurring. Called Wagoneer Client services who told me that all reports they receive are not reviewed by Stellantis even if they are a safety issue. I called the dealership after receiving this information from the Wagoneer client services and took my vehicle in to be looked at. Dealer stated because no freeze frame trouble data existed this must not be an issue and determined it was not having issues. Vehicle since being taken in has suffered from numerous electrical issues and has been out of service for weeks without rectifying. This however is a major safety issue and thus I feel needs to be researched and looked into.

Panoramic sunroof exploded while driving on freeway in good weather conditions. The only thing preventing the glass from falling on my head and my son's was the screen underneath the sunroof. The extremely loud and unexpected sound caused by the glass exploding was incredibly disorienting while in traffic traveling at approximately 65 mph. This could have caused an accident. There was no debris falling on the car that would have caused this damage, and we were not traveling under a bridge at the time of the event. I brought the vehicle to my local Jeep dealer in Torrance, CA. It has not yet been inspected by the dealer or manufacturer.

Leaks break fluid when parked at an angle (nose facing down hill). Heat seems to be a factor because it leaks more on hot days. The dealer has tried to remedy the problem no fewer than 4 times, replacing many major components. There appears to be a design flaw in the master cylinder area as that is where the brake fluid keeps leaking from. I have to imagine if you keep losing break fluid it is a safety issue and an environmental one.

The front windshield has a very noticeable warp under the rear view mirror. Enough to cause vertigo while driving. Many forums explain this issue has been reported to Jeep but no resolution has been proposed by them.
