2024 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE L Complaints

Active Lane Management disengages itself upon start up. Sometimes says needs servicing - message disappears upon car restarting. Car states key fob is not in vehicle when it is. Car has turned on, not shifted into gear, and then not been able to be turned off. Steering input from the system is sudden and does not consistently match actual road conditions Radio screen flashes/goes black/freezes Emergency Assisted Braking system activates without a clear obstacle present Braking events are abrupt and unexpected during normal driving Both systems operate intermittently and without a consistent pattern, making the behavior unreliable Dealership has been unsuccessful in reproducing any of these problems despite picture proof provided. Has happened on multiple occasions - beginning in September 2025. Jeep/Stellantis unwilling to resolve. Safety Risk: The unexpected steering corrections and sudden braking create a risk of loss of vehicle control and increase the likelihood of a rear-end collision or other traffic incident. These safety systems are not functioning as intended and instead introduce unpredictable and potentially dangerous vehicle behavior.

In July 2025 with only 15,330 miles, I was driving my vehicle leaving a parking lot and I suddenly lost power steering assist in my vehicle. Power Steering light, check engine light, traction control light, and sensor light all illuminated, my odometer began flashing and a message on the screen stating " Service Electronic Stability Control". I safely pulled over and had my car towed to a dealership where they diagnosed an EPS C2 connector was corroded and did not have dielectric grease from the factory. The sensor was cleaned and greased and reinstalled, codes cleared and I thought my vehicle was repaired. In February 2026 with only 19,125 miles, as I was leaving for work, again my vehicle lost power steering assist. Again, Power steering light, traction control light, check engine light, sensor lights, auto stop light all illuminated, my odometer was again flashing and the message on the screen was " Service Electronic Stability Control." The vehicle was again towed into the dealership where they told me that they performed a power steering "flash" and that my check engine light was because of an engine oil pressure issue, they performed an oil change and cleared the computer. This is a serious safety concern that has resulted in towing the vehicle twice, and I received two different diagnosis. I do not feel safe in this vehicle and I do not want to be traveling with my child in this vehicle. I pay far too much money every month, on a brand new vehicle that we leased to be having these serious issues. Loss of power steering is not only a safety concern for myself, but others as well if I were to lose steering assist while driving. The problem has been identified at two different dealerships.

Seems to be electrical / speaker related (forums state its the noise canceling system) This is a safety issue as around 20% of the time at cold start the car emits an extremely loud booming base sound that lasts 20-30 seconds. Despite only happening at startup anything that can impair a drivers senses is extremely dangerous as it impacts the driver and anything with noise happening around them. The problem has not been able to be reproduced by a dealer and they also wont incorporate the TSB unless it can be. Link below to reddit thread and a youtube video of the well known issue.

Component/System: Windshield/visibility system and possible body sealing or A-pillar water intrusion affecting interior and defrost performance. The condition is available for inspection upon request. Description of the problem and safety risk: I purchased a new 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Altitude. Within months of purchase, the vehicle began experiencing water intrusion inside the cabin, which has led to persistent interior moisture, fogging, and mildew odor despite multiple repair attempts over the past year. A significant safety concern occurs while driving: the interior of the windshield can fog or condensate suddenly and heavily enough to reduce forward visibility. When this happens, I must slow down and consider pulling over until visibility clears. The condition typically resolves within approximately 1–2 minutes but has occurred repeatedly during normal driving. Loss of clear windshield visibility while the vehicle is in motion creates a potential driving hazard for myself, my child passenger, and other motorists. Reproduction/confirmation: The condition has been reported to and evaluated by an authorized Jeep dealership during multiple service visits. Repairs have been attempted, including extensive interior disassembly to locate a water leak, but the problem has persisted. Inspection by manufacturer or others: The dealership and Stellantis (manufacturer) have been involved through warranty repair attempts and case review. An independent evaluation is being pursued to determine the root cause. Warning lamps or prior symptoms: No warning lamps or electronic messages appeared prior to the visibility impairment. Symptoms include interior moisture accumulation, mildew odor, and intermittent heavy windshield condensation while driving.

I purchased my Jeep in 8/2024. Since purchasing this Jeep it has had an intermittent burning smell. I was told by the dealership I got it at that it’s normal for burning smells on new cars. Well 13,700 miles later it’s still doing it and a couple of times I have seen smoke coming from the hood area up closer to the windshield area. I took my Jeep to another dealership on 11/29/2025. They drove it and smelled the burning but said they have checked everything and can not figure out where it’s coming from. They had me pick it up on 12/24/2025 and told me to bring it back if it did it again. On 12/26/2025 I returned the Jeep to the service department due to smelling the burning 3 times during the 3 days I had it. The service department still has my vehicle as of 1/12/2026 with no updates. I have contacted Stellantis and they have not done anything. The date to the question of when this happened, I put in the last time it did it. The first time I do not recall exactly but I did contact the dealership in Feb 2025 to inform them my car smelled like it was going to catch on fire sitting at a stop light.

I had my brakes flushed by my local dealer in June 2025 at about 31,000 miles for routine maintenance. I was traveling to York, Pa from Gravette, AR in September of 2025. All systems on my Cherokee had worked flawlessly on the trip, as they had since its purchase new in the Fall of 2023. On a very curvy, hilly road in the Cactocin mountain area, I was braking often. The ABS system warning light came on, as well as messages that the automatic collision control, lane departure control and adaptive cruise control were disabled. I noticed immediately that my brake pedal felt mushy and went nearly to the floor. Basically it felt like an old car with no power brakes. I proceeded to Gettysburg. When I restarted the car the error messages had cleared. I continued but after a few stops all of the error messages returned. When I got to York, still Thursday, I went to Stetler Jeep dealership and asked to have my Jeep looked at. The service clerk said no because I had no appointment. I asked to at least do an Obd2 scan so I know what the problem is. He said no, it can’t be done without an appointment. was told not until next Wednesday. I only planned to be in York until that Sunday. Between York and Decatur, IN on way home to Arkansas the warnings reoccured 3 more times, a total of 5. When stopped with my foot on the brake, when no errors showing, I would sometimes hear a clicking noise behind the steering wheel and feel it on my foot. A dealer in Indiana and my local dealer in Fayetteville, Arkansas could not find anything wrong. Those error messages have not appeared again without any repair. In December, my brakes were dragging and the brake waning light came on several times, then remained on. I could release the brakes by pumping them. My local dealer flushed brake system as the repair and warning light was gone. Two days later, brake system warning light is on again. I am taking it back to the dealer again even though brakes seem to be working fine.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormal hissing and tapping sound coming from the engine compartment, with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the wiring harness had failed due to rodent damage. The dealer informed the contact that the wiring insulation was soy-based and had been chewed on by rodents. The dealer stated that rodent urine and blood were found near the damaged wiring, and the area was not cleaned. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was advised by the dealer to place mothballs under the vehicle to deter rodents. The dealer also confirmed that no protective covering or preventative measure would be installed to prevent a future failure. The contact expressed concern that the failure made the vehicle unsafe and stated that the contact was afraid to ride in the vehicle due to the issue. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact back to the dealer for further assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 3,332.

Jan 2025, both main and auxiliary battery completely dead August 2025, both main and auxiliary battery completely dead December 2025, WHILE driving vehicle goes into neutral almost causing me with my children to get into an accident. This is no secret that Stellantis is aware of this issue and does not seem to care enough about the safety of the consumer, yet prefers to avoid a bad mark against their poorly designed faulty vehicles to be in the public.
