Buying a used 2023 Jeep Gladiator? Check these 6 recalls first

6 NHTSA recalls · 56 owner complaints on file · 1 park-outside

The 2023 list narrows to six recalls but keeps both critical ones: manual-clutch overheating and fire, and the power-steering wiring fire risk, the only item telling owners to park outside until repaired. A driver airbag that may not deploy is the notable high-severity addition, alongside the diesel fuel pump. Owner reports drop to 56 unverified NHTSA complaints with no crashes or injuries recorded, though three cite fires. Electrical system (15) and suspension (12) are the largest complaint areas.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Confirm the driver airbag recall was performed and that no airbag light stays on.
3. Check the power-steering wiring recall status — it carries a park-outside warning.
4. Ask about suspension repairs and listen for clunks or wander on the test drive.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Jeep dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
