Check your VIN against the NHTSA database to see what is still outstanding. ## 4xe high-voltage battery fire risk, "park outside" recall (major) Certain 4xe plug-in hybrid Grand Cherokees (and Wranglers) may have high-voltage battery packs with cell separator damage that can lead to a vehicle fire, whether parked or driving. NHTSA and FCA told owners to park outside and away from structures and not to charge the vehicle until repaired; an initial recall remedy (24V-720) was later found insufficient and expanded under a second recall. Most affected: 2022-2025 (4xe only). Typical cost: Free under recall (battery inspection/replacement). Recall/TSB: NHTSA 24V-720, expanded by NHTSA 25V-741. ## Steering intermediate shaft disconnect (recall) (major) Some 2022-2023 Grand Cherokees may have been built with an incorrectly assembled steering column intermediate shaft (the joint connecting the steering wheel to the steering gear), which can separate and cause a total loss of steering control. Dealers inspect and, if needed, replace or properly secure the shaft. Most affected: 2022-2023. Typical cost: Free under recall. Recall/TSB: NHTSA 23V-352 (FCA recall 58A). ## Rear coil spring detachment (recall) (moderate) Rear coil springs on some 2021-2023 Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L vehicles may have been installed incorrectly and can detach from the vehicle while driving, increasing crash risk. FCA issued an initial recall in mid-2023 covering roughly 80,000 vehicles, and NHTSA/FCA records show a further expanded coil-spring recall issued later. Dealers inspect and correct spring seating/retention. Most affected: 2021-2023. Typical cost: Free under recall. Recall/TSB: NHTSA 23V-413 (FCA recall 64A); later expanded under NHTSA 26V-051. ## Early 4xe stop-sale / stranded-vehicle reports (moderate) Shortly after the 4xe's 2022 launch, some owners reported being stranded by software or 12V-related faults, and reporting suggested a temporary stop-sale affected new 4xe deliveries while FCA investigated. Largely a first-model-year teething issue addressed via software updates rather than an ongoing pattern in later production. Most affected: 2022 (early production). Typical cost: Free (software update/dealer repair). ## Electrical gremlins: power window, tailgate, and infotainment glitches (minor) Owner forums for the WL generation report scattered electrical issues, a power window that stops working, intermittent power-tailgate faults, and infotainment freezes/reboots. These are inconsistently reported (not a single documented defect pattern) and often resolved with a module reset, software update, or minor repair rather than pointing to one root cause. Most affected: 2022-2025. Typical cost: $0 (reset/update) - $500+ (module/regulator replacement). Problems listed here are compiled from NHTSA complaints, recalls, technical service bulletins, and widely documented owner reports for the 2022-2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
