Electrical system complaints dominate what owners report for the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe. The most consistent pattern involves the hybrid electrical system triggering warning messages, "service hybrid system" alerts that sometimes resolve on their own but in multiple cases have preceded a partial or complete loss of power while driving at highway speeds. Owners describe the vehicle suddenly losing acceleration or shutting down entirely, including loss of headlights and all displays, while in traffic. Steering complaints are the second most-reported area, with owners citing issues tied to the broader electrical and driver-assist systems rather than purely mechanical steering failures. Forward collision avoidance draws a notable cluster of complaints as well, with owners reporting false alerts and uninvited system interventions. Several electrical complaints involve vehicles entering a reduced-power "limp mode" repeatedly, with multiple service visits failing to resolve the underlying issue.

By System
The 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4XE has 11 recalls, with the most serious being a high-voltage battery that can fail internally and start a fire while the vehicle is parked or being driven.
Two separate recalls create a risk of sudden steering loss: the steering gear rack bar can bind inside the rack, making the wheel stiff or unresponsive, and the steering column intermediate shaft can disconnect from its joint entirely. On the drivetrain side, the 2.0L plug-in hybrid engine can shut down without warning due to a communication failure between the transmission and hybrid control systems, and on non-hybrid models the EGR valve can stick open and cut drive power unexpectedly. A rear coil spring may also detach from the vehicle while driving. There is a child seat safety concern as well: certain seat back frames may be missing a weld at the child seat tether anchor point, allowing the tether to pull free in a crash. Three lighting issues round out the recalls: damaged tail light side marker assemblies may not illuminate, a software error can prevent the driver from being notified when a turn signal fails, and hazard lights may flash when the brake pedal is pressed, which can confuse nearby drivers. Some vehicles may also be missing the airbag warning label from the dashboard.
