Buying a used 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee? Check these 13 recalls first
Four critical recalls: a front wheel that can fall outward, rear springs that can fall off (covered by two separate recalls), and a 4xe plug-in hybrid battery fire risk — the only item here that tells owners to park outside. High-severity recalls cover side airbags not deploying or deploying late, plus loss of driving power on plug-in hybrids. Electrical is far and away the top complaint area, 167 of 368 unverified NHTSA reports. Those reports include 13 crashes and seven injuries, with no fires recorded.
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.
- Determine whether it is a 4xe plug-in hybrid, and if so confirm the battery fire recall repair
- Verify the front wheel and both rear spring recalls are closed by VIN
- Test the backup camera, defroster and side airbag warning light before buying
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Jeep dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
