2021 Jeep Wrangler Complaint Log

The wire harness at the front behind the passenger tire wheel has a faulty clip and fails and allows the harness to drop on the exhaust cause all kinds of safety issues. I was getting a service light stating service shifter and then I was on the highway and the power steering went out I had to pull over. I since have moved the harness away and tied it back and have had 0 issues.

The contact leased a 2021 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while his daughter was driving 65-70 MPH, the wheels locked-up. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact's daughter was able to pull over to the shoulder of the roadway. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed, and the dealer determined that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V865000 (Engine). The dealer performed the recall repair, and the wheels unlocked. The contact stated that while his daughter was driving 55 MPH, the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where an unknown repair was performed; however, the contact declined to take the vehicle back due to safety concerns. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 18,000.

Received the FCA recall B9a/NHTSA 23V-787 which states that a defect exists, the High Voltage (HV) battery on the vehicle may fail internally. the root cause is still being investigated and there is no fix at this time. It then states to refrain from recharging these vehicles and not to park them inside of buildings or Structures or near other vehicles. I have followed up with FCA and Jeep Care and have not heard back from them. ITs been several weeks. This should be a lemon and bought back as it can not be used as intended.

At speeds about 35-45 MPH and again between 55-60 MPH vehicle steering will shake uncontrollably, with tire bounce. Requires sudden slowdowns in order to regain control. Dealership has replaced tie rods and steering stabilizer with no resolution. The shake has been present since purchasing from the dealership and has become progressively worse. Those driving behind report the appearance that "tires are going to come off".

My Jeep started shaking violently and was uncontrollable. I have to carefully decelerate and stop to resolve the issue. This seems to happen @ 45 mph & higher. This happens in traffic which is unsafe for myself & other drivers.

FCA US LLC issues a Safety Recall - B9A/NHTSA 23V-787 - indicating that a high voltage battery defect could cause the vehicle to catch fire with the ignition on or off. The Safety Recall instructed owners and lessees not to operate the vehicle, charge it, park it inside or near structures, or park it near other vehicles. Essentially, FCA US LLC instructed owners and lessees to park their vehicles in a field. The cause of the issue is unknown and no remedy is available, nor is FCA US LLC able to provide an estimated delivery or timeline for a remedy. I contacted FCA Support for more information, as instructed by the Safety Recall notice. FCA US LLC Support indicated that I should continue to operate the vehicle and should schedule a service appointment with a dealership. This is in direct conflict with the "Important Safety Issue" identified by FCA US LLC in its notice, which "can result in increased risk of occupant injury and/or injury to persons outside of the vehicle, as well as property damage." In other words, FCA has instructed me to continue operating a vehicle it has deemed unsafe. Alternatively, the vehicle is rendered totally inoperable and no remedy has been offered. When contacting FCA US LLC, the representative I spoke with was unable to provide any information and ultimately hung up on me. This response is wholly unacceptable when FCA US LLC has deemed the vehicle unsafe.

On 12/12 around 2pm PST, I brought in my Jeep Rubicon 4XE to the dealership to fix the fire risk but was denied service and a repair order. Sunnyvale Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram The dealership was in Sunnyvale Ca. 94087 1176 W El Camino Real, Sunnyvale, CA 94087 I must be able to recharge my battery and use the hybrid functionally asap. I also have no where to park my Jeep but inside my garage as I live in a HOA housing development with limited parking. My family feels terrified and we would like to have the Jeep fixed ASAP or bought back.

Owners are advised not to recharge their vehicles and to park outside and away from structures until they are repaired. There are a few reasons why this should be a NON-Driveable recall. 1. The recall involves risk of fire and injury to those in or near the car or property. 2. It is a significant hardship to have to continuously park a car outside of the garage due to extreme cold. Often times homes/apartment buildings simply do not have outdoor parking. 3. It is also extremely challenging to find a place to park the car away from others when driving about town. How does one do that in busy parking lots and parking structures? This would be difficult in any state but far more pronounced in states with cold climates where the vast majority of parking areas are busy and often covered or enclosed. 4.If something catastrophic happened to the Hybrid battery system where the Hybrid system didn't work, you would essentially be stranded. This seems counterintuitive with a separate gas powertrain and separate Hybrid powertrain. 0% is still about 15% general operating condition for the electric assist. There is always some type of regen working to maintain that SOC. That is unacceptable for a dealership to treat this as it is and not notified the customers when or what could be done.

The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at 55 MPH, the steering wheel became firm before the vehicle lost motive power and stalled. The vehicle was restarted after three attempts. The vehicle was taken to a dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 26,200.

RECALL ON BATTERY, NO REMEDY, CAN'T CHARGE MY JEEP, CAN'T PARK IN THE GARAGE, MPG IS DOWN TO 18 (TYPICALLY STAYS AROUND 24-25 IN WINTER) DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT HELPFUL, JEEP IS NOT COMMUNICATING AS THEY SHOULD. RECALL B9A. I ALSO BELIEVE THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE EMISSIONS FROM THIS, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS CAME ON TWICE SINCE I HAVE HAD THE JEEP (BOUGHT NEW IN 6/21) CAN'T CHARGE THE JEEP OR USE REMOTE START UNTIL RESET. DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS A READING STATING THERE WAS A LEAK IN THE GAS TANK, COULDN'T FIND THE LEAK SO RESET THE ENGINE LIGHT.

The vehicle had a tendency to shut down while driving - the HV battery recall is a significant safety issue. It’s been 3 months since the recall and I’ve heard noting about the fix. The manufacturer instructed owners to not park newt other vehicles, in a garage, and not to charge the vehicle. That’s an unacceptable situation considering the long options for parking all Violate the manufacturers instructions,

Vehicle at highway speeds shakes uncontrollably and makes you slow down to maintain control also causes you to vear into other lanes when trying regain control. It happens all the time at those speeds and have to park the vehicle and not drive. Jeep is having hard time finding parts. My vehicle is all factory stock and no modifications have been made to it. Very scary and very very dangerous to drive

Death Wobble. When traveling over 45 mph and Jeep hits a bump or even mild uneven area in asphalt it can occur. It is unpredictable as it will not always happen. Vehicle has varying degrees of severity in shaking, threatening to become out of control and cause accident. It will force you to try and slow which is not easy and pull off highway until it stops. Dealership (in Manassas) sold this vehicle to us this past March and Dealership in Fredericksburg (Stafford CDJ) left us without a rental car until replacement part comes in. They have been horrible about responding and getting in touch to resolve this issue and did not give us a rental call even though our warranty covers it. It has become apparent it will put our lives at danger and others.

Several times last two weeks while driving the power steering failed. Vehicle became almost impossible to steer. At 55 mph serious. Also the vehicle would start stopping as if the passive speed control saw something ahead when nothing was in road

I spent extra money to get a Jeep Wrangler 4xe, and for over a month now it has been under recall 89a. I have to pay for gas and park far away from everyone and everything, as though that is even possible. If I don’t and my new, expensive vehicle catches fire I will somehow be liable if someone chooses to park next to me, or if my driveway isn’t long enough and the fire spreads. There is no fix or compensation in sight and I am angry that this has happened to the car that I used to love.

Safety Recall 89A - Given notification of potential vehicle fire risk and after nearly 2 months still no information is available on how or when this will be resolved.

My Jeep has been sitting in a parking lot at Bald Hill Jeep in Warwick, RI since 12/14, because of two issues, a transmission issue, for which parts have been on back order, and for a a safety recall of the battery, for which there is no solution for repair. This is a safety hazard to myself, others and property in general. The battery may catch fire whether it’s on of off. I will not put safety of myself, others, or property, at risk. I want a full refund of the purchase price of my vehicle so that I can buy a vehicle that is safe to drive. Even if they fix the transmission issue, the vehicle is unsafe to drive. I have been without a vehicle due to both issues since 12/14/23. I expect Jeep to pay for a rental vehicle until I get my full refund of the purchase price of my vehicle. Also, I found out about the recall when I went to the dealership after my car engine light went on and my vehicle stalled twice. I only received an official notice of the recall AFTER, as if Jeep is trying to hide the unsafe recall. I scanned the QR code to request a refund, however, there are many technical issues with the form that will not allow me to proceed with the submission. Another issue is that I have tried to contact Jeep via FCA online email form, such also does not work. It appears they want to avoid being contacted.

I have tried out to Jeep for asking if the open recall issue can be fix they do not have any solution how to fix the issue and no necessary parts are available with the dealer or even with Jeep itself.

Violent wobble in steering wheel when going speeds above 50. Has happened 6+ times over the last month. Feels very unsafe. Car under warranty. Dealer cannot identify issue.

Death Wobble on a 2021 My Mechanic is trying to fix it, and i was told that this is the first year of power assisted suspension (which he believes is causing the issues) The Death Wobble continues replaced tires and suspension parts and still has death wobble This is a KNOWN issue on Chrysler history, hence the settlement, but it didn't include my vehicle as it is a newer vehicle

My car started shaking out of control. I was on highway. Could not get over or stop for a bit. Could have been an accident. There was a car behind me and on the side of me. I have taken it to the Jeep Dealership. It has happened 3x without warning. Online this is called the "death wobble"

If I am driving at any rate of speed over 50mph-- and drive over almost any road imperfection-- literally not even a pothole but a change from one section of road to another-- the car/ steering wheel starts shaking violently-- I have to drop down to about 30-35mph for it to resolve-- sometimes I have to come to a complete stop and start up again. Currently in shop.

Steering wheel violently shakes at speeds above 50 mph, essentially if hitting any sort of bump in the road. This is known as the Jeep "death wobble." We received a damper from Jeep that supposedly fixes the problem. That did not fix anything. Steering wheel still violently shakes at speeds above 50 mph. It can shake for short periods of time (5-10 seconds) or indefinitely. We have to completely stop the car, typically on the shoulder of a freeway/highway, in order to get the shaking to stop. My wife and I feel incredibly unsafe while driving this vehicle. The damper took 10 weeks to arrive so we had to just deal with it for that time period. We thought the nightmare would be over after the damper was installed, but that's not the case. We are now left with a very expensive vehicle that we do not feel safe driving.

When driving around 65-70 mph and hit a slight bump, the vehicle shacks violently and you must slow down to about 50mph. There is no warning or any other indication the issue was about to happen. This was replicated several times over the next few days. This was a safety issue as the steering became difficult to control and slowing down to below 50 on a major highway increased risk for a rear end collision. The vehicle has been inspected by a dealer and will need new steering stabilizer. Unfortunately the parts are unavailable at this time and the jeep cannot be driven on highways until repairs are made.

Drivers sun visor broke off while driving on November 2023 on a 2021 Jeep. I was driving at a residential area going 30mph. Dealership fixed it and assessed it as a safety issue. I brushed off the incident and considered it as normal wear and tear. Then in April 2024 the passenger sun visor broke off. I was on the interstate driving 70mph. I seldom carry passengers and when I do it's mostly after sunset. In both cases, we simply flipped visor down and it broke off. The roads were smooth both times. I went online to search for recalls but instead found many forums experiencing the same issue and suggesting to buy a 3rd party sun visor repair kit.

I was driving about 68 mph on the highway in my 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited and experienced what is commonly known as the "death wobble." My steering wheel shook with such force that my Jeep veered into the right lane next to me that was thankfully empty. I thought my front wheels were going to come right off of the axle, so I pulled over and removed my children from my car from fear of what else the Jeep was going to do next.

We wish to file a complaint for recall B9A (recall date November 22, 2023), also known as NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V787000: "High Voltage Battery May Fail and Cause Fire A vehicle fire while parked or driving can increase the risk of injury.". It has been 30 days since this recall and after multiple inquiries with Chrysler and associated dealerships, no remedy has been made available. No replacement or temporary replacement such as a loaner or rental car has been made available to customers. Owners are advised not to recharge their vehicles, and to park outside and away from structures, until they are repaired. This is untenable, we do not have off street parking, and cannot park it in our driveway or garage. We are paying for not being able to charge the vehicle and using gas instead. Chrysler needs to replace these vehicles now. We are in contact with our lemon lawyers. Thank you.

Recall (B9A) has been out since November of 2023. The recall states "An internally failed HV battery could lead to a vehicle fire with the ignition on or off. A vehicle fire can result in increased risk of occupant injury and/or injury to persons outside the vehicle, as well as property damage." As of today, no 'remedy' is available. In the mean time, can't charge the car. Driving the car would seem to be 'unwise' as the risk seems to be with the 'ignition on or off'. Can't park the car in my garage. Can't drive it to work as my employer doesn't want the liability should an issue arise. Been waiting patiently for a remedy - so far nothing but static.

My car has been recalled more times than actually driven when leased. The manufacturer offers no help or returns phone calls. The latest recall is extremely hazardous and dangerous. I am advised to not drive it, not charge it, and not park next to any structure. They do not have a remedy, and still want to continue charging me for the lease. I’ve complained numerous times about this car and have been ignored incessently.

We purchased our 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4XE/4WD Hybrid in December of 2021. Since our purchase, we've received multiple recall notices which were since resolved. The volume of these recalls has been concerning to us, especially for such an expensive vehicle for which we had an expectation of quality. However, the most recent recall for the High Voltage Battery B9A/NHTSA 23V-787 is a catastrophic problem because we live in an attached townhome community. This exposes us personally to both catastrophic danger AND liability. Secondarily, we paid a hefty premium purchase price for a hybrid vehicle, a function that is lost to us now. We also incurred the considerable expense of installing a charger in our garage, for use with our Jeep Rubicon. We can no longer use this charging station.
