The rear coil spring detached from this 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L while we were driving more than a year ago. This vehicle has been subject to multiple recalls involving the rear coil spring. We also own another 2023 Grand Cherokee L (VIN ending 7805), which has experienced two separate rear coil-spring detachments—one while driving and another while parked in our driveway last month. Between our two vehicles, we have experienced three separate coil-spring detachments. We are very concerned that the repeated recalls and repairs have not resolved this safety issue and no longer feel confident that these vehicles are safe to drive.

The rear coil spring has detached from this 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L twice. The first time, the coil detached while we were driving more than a year ago. The second time, the coil detached while the vehicle was parked in our driveway last month. This is especially concerning because this vehicle has been subject to multiple recalls involving the rear coil spring. We also own another 2023 Grand Cherokee L (VIN ending 1431), and its rear coil spring also detached while we were driving. Between our two vehicles, we have experienced three separate coil-spring detachments. We are very concerned that the repeated recalls and repairs have not resolved this safety issue and no longer feel confident that these vehicles are safe to drive.

I was driving on the NYS thru way with my family and my rear suspension coil came out while we were driving. The part was not rusted or looked defected. When I took it to the dealership they said a recall for this issue had been repaired in June of 2023 prior to me owning it. I purchased the vehicle on October of 2024. I called corporate and they said there is nothing they will do for me. I paid $500 to fix an issue that should have been completed properly. This is now a safety concern for me and I fear driving it will happen again.

The coil spring on the rear passenger side has become detached from my 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Limited. I was unaware that it had happened when I started to drive and could hear something kind of bouncing around. When I got out of the vehicle to see what was going on, I could see that the rear of the car seemed unusually low. That is when I looked under and saw the spring dangling next to the tire. It could've caused a bad accident if it had gotten caught up in the tire or if it had completely detached and either hit another car or caused another car to hit it. The vehicle had a recall for this in 2023, before I owned it, and the status says "inspected" but not repaired. There was another recall early in 2026 for this same issue, but at this time, my vehicle is not part of that recall. However, it should be as this is a dangerous, scary issue that isn't immediately evident. I'm just grateful that I was in my neighborhood when it happened and not driving on the interstate at a high rate of speed, as there was nothing to indicate that it was imminently happening. It hasn't been inspected yet as it just happened but I will have it towed tomorrow to get inspected and repaired. It is underivable in its current condition.

The rear right coil spring and is available for inspection upon request. Spring failed while car was parked in driveway on flat ground, the car was driven with me and my 1 year old at highway speeds of 75mph. No warnings were displayed on dashboard. Never received an update of a recall and will not pull up when VIN is searched. Upon VIN search on MOPAR website original recall repair was done in 2023 which has failed. We did not know of this spring failure until arriving home and seeing it lie where I was parked. Earlier in the day a loud metal noise was heard but figured it came from passing traffic on highway. No one has inspected the vehicle yet, working on trying to get it towed since it is no longer safe to drive. Vehicles rear right tire is now pitched in at top towards rear wheel well. No warning or message was alerted to me.

The rear passenger side suspension coil fell out of my car in my driveway at less then 2 mph. The spring and rubber piece holding the spring in both fell to the ground with no damage done. The vehicle was towed to a jeep dealership where they confirmed there was no damage to any part of the vehicle, and it just fell out with no explanation. The dealer insists that we cannot reinstall the same sping, even though there is no damage to the vehicle or spring. If this would have happened at highway speeds, it could have been very dangerous for me or others around me. The dealer is currently making the repairs, but at my cost. There is currently a recall for this exact issue for my make/model/trim but for vehicles produced earlier in the year of 2023 (my vehicle is not covered). There was no warning lamps, messages or any symptoms of any failure prior to the spring falling from the vehicle.

Rear passenger coil spring popped out and became lodged in the tire while driving. We were driving on the Whitestone expressway and the car came to a resisted halt. This could have caused severe injury if I had not been in the lane and came to a slowdown to allow a car to merge in front of me. The highway traffic patrol man dislodged the fully intact coil from between the tire and tire well. There were no warning lamps, indicators, signs or symptoms. Initially I thought the tire popped which was strange as there was no pot holes or obstructions in the road.

I picked up my wife from the airport and I’m on 76 going home. As I am driving about to switch lanes I hear a pop, so I am thinking that I got a flat tire. As I pull over I check all my tires nothing is flat. I look under my car and I see that my rear suspension spring on the right side of my tire is hanging down. Now I am waiting for a tow, so I can take it back to the dealer.

The right rear coil spring on my 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee dislodged and ejected from its mounted position while the vehicle was parked. The spring did not break; it came out intact. This vehicle previously had Recall 64A performed to address a rear coil spring-related safety issue. The recall had already been completed prior to this incident and marked as “complete” The failure occurred after the recall remedy, indicating a potential improper repair or incomplete resolution of the defect. The fact that the spring ejected while the vehicle was stationary raises serious concerns about improper installation or inadequate retention of the component. This presents a significant safety hazard, as the same failure could occur while driving and lead to loss of control. The incident also caused (or may have caused) damage to surrounding suspension components, which are currently being inspected. This complaint is being submitted as a recall remedy failure involving a safety-critical component. Additional details: Vehicle was parked at the time of failure No prior warning before the incident Spring dislodged intact (no fracture) I request that this issue be investigated as a failed recall repair.
