Buying a used 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L? Check these 4 recalls first
The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L has 4 recalls in this group. Rear coil spring detachment appears in two notices, alongside a side air bag connector failure and a rearview camera that may go blank. NHTSA received 77 unverified owner complaints, including 26 electrical system, 18 forward collision avoidance, 16 steering, and 13 unknown or other reports. The complaint areas extend beyond the listed recalls, so spring and air bag repair records should accompany questions about driver-assistance and steering behavior.
Before you buy
- 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.
- Verify completion of both applicable rear coil spring recall notices.
- Obtain side air bag connector recall records and ask about air bag warnings.
- Test the rearview camera and ask about collision-avoidance alerts or steering symptoms.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Jeep dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
