Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe Recalls

The Jeep Grand Cherokee 4XE has 12 recalls covering 2022 through 2025 model years, with the most serious being an engine debris issue on 2023-2025 vehicles where internal contamination can cause the engine to fail, cutting drive power or starting a fire in the engine compartment.

The high-voltage battery on 2022-2024 models is also a fire concern: it can fail internally and ignite while the vehicle is parked or being driven. On 2023-2025 vehicles, a separate engine issue tied to communication between the transmission control module and hybrid control processor can cause an unexpected engine shutdown and loss of drive power.

The 2022 model year carries the heaviest share of recalls. Two involve steering: the steering column intermediate shaft can disconnect from its joint and eliminate steering control, and the steering rack bar can bind within the rack, making the vehicle difficult or impossible to steer. A third 2022 issue involves the rear coil springs, which can detach from the vehicle while driving. The 2022 PHEV engine can also shut down unexpectedly due to a loss of communication between the transmission control module and hybrid control processor. On 2022 models equipped with the 3.6L engine, the exhaust gas recirculation valve can stick open and cause a sudden loss of drive power.

On the safety equipment side, 2022 models have a missing weld that can allow a child seat tether anchor to pull free from the seat frame in a crash. Three lighting issues also affect 2022 vehicles: a software error can prevent the driver from being notified when a turn signal fails, damaged tail light side marker assemblies may not illuminate and reduce the vehicle's visibility to others, and the hazard lights can flash when the brake pedal is pressed, potentially confusing drivers behind the vehicle. A label recall covering 2022 models notes that the airbag warning label may be missing from the dashboard.
