5/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
For the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L, the most concentrated complaint activity involves the forward collision avoidance system and the engine. On the driver assistance side, owners frequently report false forward collision warnings triggering without an actual obstacle present, and some describe the automatic emergency braking activating unexpectedly at highway speeds. Engine complaints center on stalling, rough running, and unexpected power loss, sometimes accompanied by warning lights. The electrical system draws a smaller but notable share of reports, owners describe warning lights illuminating together in clusters, loss of power steering assist, instrument cluster irregularities, and in a few cases the vehicle failing to shift into gear or shut off normally. Active lane keeping also shows up across multiple reports, with owners noting the system drops out at startup and occasionally flags a service message that clears on its own after a restart.

Crash-Related
By System
The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L has 6 recalls, the most serious involving radiator crossmember bolts that may not be properly secured, which can cause airbags to deploy incorrectly and fuel to leak in a crash, raising the risk of fire and injury.
Two additional airbag concerns affect this vehicle: a software error in the occupant restraint controller can delay side airbag deployment in a crash, and a loose connector on the front seat side airbags can prevent them from deploying at all. Second-row head restraints may also fail to lock in the upright position, reducing protection for rear-seat occupants in a crash. On the electronics side, a software error in the instrument cluster can cause the speedometer to show the wrong speed, leaving the driver without an accurate reading. The rearview camera can also fail to display an image when reversing, reducing what the driver can see behind the vehicle.
