2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L

On June 8, 2023, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles US, LLC (FCA) filed Safety Recall 23V-413 affecting certain 2022–2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee and2021–2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L vehicles to address rear coil springs that may not have been properly installed during vehicle production. An improperly installed rear coil spring may detach while the vehicle is in motion, creating a road hazard that can increase the risk of a crash for following motorists and may result in injury to other road users. Since the filing of Recall 23V-413, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has received twenty (20) unique consumer complaints alleging rear coil spring detachments occurring after the recall remedy was performed. These reports raise concerns regarding the effectiveness of the recall remedy and suggest the possibility of additional factors not addressed by the original recall campaign. Accordingly, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) is opening this Recall Query (RQ) to assess the adequacy of FCA’s remedy procedure under Recall 23V-413 and to evaluate the root cause(s) of post-remedy coil spring detachments. ODI will review complaint data, field reports, and FCA’s technical analysis to determine whether further action is warranted. To review the ODI reports cited in the Opening Resume ODI Report Identification Number document, visit NHTSA.gov.

I own a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. My vehicle was previously repaired under FCA Safety Recall 64A / NHTSA Recall 23V-413 for the rear coil springs on XXX, at approximately 32,792 miles. The vehicle is now affected by another rear coil spring safety recall, FCA Campaign 89D. This recall involves the same safety concern involving rear coil springs potentially being improperly installed and detaching from the vehicle while driving. I brought the vehicle to Billion Motors in [XXX], on September 29, 2026, at approximately 130,321 miles because I was experiencing loud clunking, shaking, and severe vibration. The dealership documented: “PER STELLANTIS, REMEDY IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE. FCA US WILL CONTACT BY MAIL WHEN REMEDY IS AVAILABLE.” I am extremely concerned because this vehicle already received the previous recall repair for this same rear coil spring issue, and I am now being told that the vehicle is again affected and there is currently no remedy available. A rear coil spring detaching while driving could create a road hazard and increase the risk of a crash. I am continuing to experience suspension-related symptoms while there is no available repair. I have contacted FCA/Stellantis regarding this issue and requested assistance, including review for repurchase of the vehicle. I am filing this complaint so NHTSA is aware that my vehicle received the prior recall repair, is now affected by another recall involving the same safety condition, is experiencing symptoms, and currently has no available remedy. I have also filed a consumer complaint with the South Dakota Attorney General’s Office/Division of Consumer Protection, which has forwarded my complaint to FCA US LLC and requested a response from the manufacturer.

I am filing this complaint regarding my Jeep Grand Cherokee L and Safety Recall 89D, involving the rear coil springs. My husband and I purchased this vehicle on August 10, 2025. We have two young children, ages 3 and 1, and purchased this SUV because we wanted a safe, reliable vehicle for our family. I recently received a recall notice informing me that the rear coil springs may not have been installed correctly and could detach while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. The notice also states that there is currently no repair available. Although my vehicle has not experienced a confirmed suspension failure, I am extremely concerned about what could happen if it does. What if a spring detaches while I am driving with my children? What if it causes an accident that seriously injures or kills someone? I understand that recalls happen, but I do not understand how families are expected to continue using these vehicles without a repair or clear guidance about the risks. I am requesting that NHTSA review the handling of this recall, the lack of an available remedy, and whether Jeep should be required to provide additional safety guidance or interim protections for affected owners. My family relies on this vehicle for daily transportation. I should not have to wait for an accident or injury before these concerns are addressed.

The radio has been replaced 3 times by the jeep dealer. The issue is over the air updates of the uconnect radio system fail and put the radio in Italian language disable foward collision safety features and other car features that I paid for need to also be enabled by the dealer that the dealer can only activate due to Stella’s firewall issue that prevents people to work on their own cars and require the dealership software to fix. The radio replacement does not fix issue even though they replace 3 times. They don’t actually have a fix and they are just putting band-aid on the problem. The update they send to the radio over the air corrupts the cars options.

I am filing this complaint regarding my 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee and safety recall 89D (NHTSA Campaign 26V562000). My vehicle is currently experiencing abnormal driving behavior that has caused me to have a legitimate safety concern regarding the vehicle’s suspension. The vehicle does not drive normally, and I am concerned that the condition may be related to the component addressed by recall 89D. I have contacted both the dealership and the manufacturer’s recall/customer assistance department multiple times seeking to have the vehicle properly diagnosed and to determine whether it is safe to operate while the recall remedy remains unavailable. Initially, I was advised that I could take the vehicle to a Jeep dealership to have the condition diagnosed and that the recall department could provide rental assistance because the vehicle was not driving normally. I subsequently received different information stating that rental expenses could only potentially be reimbursed if the vehicle was taken to a Jeep dealership for an alternative repair while waiting for the recall remedy. I am concerned because I have received inconsistent information regarding: 1. Whether the vehicle can or should be driven while experiencing the reported condition; 2. Whether the dealership will diagnose the vehicle to determine whether the current condition is related to recall 89D; 3. What interim repair or inspection is appropriate while the official recall remedy is unavailable; 4. Whether transportation or rental assistance is available while the safety concern is being investigated; and 5. What expenses, if any, will be reimbursed if an alternative repair is necessary before the recall remedy becomes available. I understand that an official recall remedy may not yet be available. My concern is not simply that the recall repair cannot currently be completed. My concern is that the vehicle is actively exhibiting abnormal behavior involving a system that is the subject of a safety recal

Pedestrian Alert/Forward Collision light warning always on after over the air update. Manufacturer removed option in settings to disable this feature and warning light has been on since this over the air update. Dealer has attempted repair however fix only works for a few weeks and then reverts. Over the air update also disabled paddle shifters, caused language on vehicle to switch to italian, and changed units of measure for speed and tire pressure. This is a blatant safety issue as it is not apparent to driver that speed settings have changed. The inoperable forward Collision system risks the public and passengers safety. The fix provided by manufacturer is temporary and does not resolve the issue.
