4/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer draws complaints most heavily around the engine and powertrain. Owners with the 3.0L Hurricane engine report drivability problems appearing at low mileage, symptoms include unstable idle, loss of power during re-acceleration, and warning lights triggering early in ownership. A separate pattern involves engine overheating, in at least one case preceded by air conditioning irregularities before the temperature event occurred. On the powertrain side, owners describe the transmission shifting unexpectedly into park while the vehicle is moving, which also showed up alongside power steering warning messages. The electrical system rounds out the top complaints, though specific symptoms there are more scattered across the reported cases. RPM instability at idle and during light throttle inputs appears to be the most consistently described engine behavior across multiple reports.

By System
The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer has 6 recalls, the most serious involving a driver airbag that may fail to deploy in a crash and third-row seat belt buckles that occupants may not be able to properly fasten.
On the visibility side, two separate software issues can prevent the rearview camera from displaying an image when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, leaving the driver without a view behind the vehicle. Both issues result in the same blind zone risk while backing up, and prior software fixes did not fully resolve the problem across all affected vehicles. Rounding out the list, door and window trim pieces on the driver and passenger sides may not have been properly secured and can detach while driving, becoming hazards for other vehicles on the road.
