2022 JEEP WAGONEER Complaints

Severe outside tire wear on front tires and vibration at interstate speeds. Multiple cases on the forums which no one can get resolved. Unacceptable. Results in bald tires in as little as 10000 miles. See picture and links to forums. Stellantis should really recall or TSB this issue, especially on a high end vehicle. We need consumer protection from the government on these lemons. Three posts below, but there are many more threads if you look on the forum.

While driving my vehicle down a highway today several warning lights suddenly came on including ABS, traction control, air suspension. I attempted to slow down to exit the highway and the brakes didn’t work. The brake pedal was just sinking to the floor and doing absolutely nothing to slow the vehicle down. I started approaching a light with cars stopped but luckily the turn lane was open and I was able to get off the highway and coast into a parking lot. I had to throw the car in park to get it to stop. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership I had just gotten it back from the day prior after having transmission work done. This car is a death trap, extremely dangerous, and needs to be investigated. I had been driving the car most of the day without issue. There was no warning just a sudden loss of braking ability.

Concerns: Electrical is slow to respond the screen. The turn knob is a HUGE safety concern. The turn know sometime doesn’t not click or stay in park. The vehicle will lunge. The knob is easy hot accidentally hit and move out of the gear causing the auto brake to jerk the car to a stop. The getting the brake release to get car back in gear is slow to unlock. Sometimes I have to turn the car completely off. Turn it back on then do the break release and start all over. The auto break has actually stopped in the middle of the road for no reason and I’m lucky. I just didn’t get hit from behind and I had nothing to do with the turn knob. The auto stop is very sensitive. I turn it off almost 100% of the time like when you’re at a stop sign because when it comes back on, it’ll jerk the car. I’m just very disappointed in the Wagoneer as a customer. I’ll look forward to the day that I can replace this car.

This has happened on my vehicle twice, the first time I was stopping at a stop sign and the car gave a message about putting car in park and restarting, it put itself into park before I saw the message and so when I went to accelerate it just revved the engine. I had to push the on/off button to restart vehicle and it went. Same thing happened again about a month later (last week) this time I was pulling into our school’s drive to drop off kids but before I got to the drop off area it dinged, giving a message to put car in park and restart since I was getting ready to stop I was going to wait but almost as soon as I looked back up from reading the screen it slammed into park and same thing I had to push my on/off button to restart and go again. I was actually moving this time so we came to an abrupt stop with my children in the car. The service department said they couldn’t replicate and to come get the vehicle, I feel this is a huge safety concern for our family. What if it does this at highway speeds, I think someone will be greatly injured from this. We have a ticket open with Jeep but so far nothing.

While driving the vehicle's braking system completely failed. During the failure multiple warning lamps came on to include ABS, Brake, and engine. The messaging system indicated brake service needed. The failure caused the entire braking system to "shut down" and a complete loss of braking ability. The brake system consistently went from no brakes to complete brake lock up. A later diagnostic via the OBD system indicated a communication failure between ECU/computer systems. No other symptoms were present prior to the failure. The vehicle is currently being inspected by the dealership.

The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Wagoneer. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the camera and navigation screen went blank. The message “Uconnect need service take to authorize dealer” was displayed. The contact stated that the GPS continued to reboot. The fan underneath the seat was making an abnormal noise. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was determined that a software update was needed. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to another local dealer, Hollywood Chrysler Jeep (2100 N State Rd. 7, Hollywood, FL 33021); where it was diagnosed and determined that the infotainment screen needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was contacted and served with lemon law documents, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 4,000.

3rd row seat belt is fraying/cut. Appears to be from the mechanism in the roof of the car. Jeep is refusing to replace it. And trying to charge 1500 dollars for the repair. It is a major safety concern as if someone was in that seat and were involved in a car accident the seatbelt would not work properly

I was driving and the vehicle shut down and shifted into idle mode while in driving mode. Smelled something burning. Turned car off and back on quickly (as was on the road) and the smell was gone but the check engine light was on. I took to dealership next morning and it has been three weeks now that it has been at the shop. They are saying it’s an issue with the hybrid part of the battery/engine that has gone bad.

Driving on freeway and needed to come to urgent stop. The vehicle did come to a stop and no collision occurred. However, after stopping, the vehicle then would not move. The car was on and was unable to be turned off. Multiple error messages appeared and the gears were flashing. At risk due to being at a full stop on the freeway with traffic still moving at posted speeds, and unable to move vehicle. Police and courtesy vehicle arrived a short time later to prevent a rear end collision and stayed until a tow truck arrived and could tow vehicle to local dealership. Vehicle is at the dealership and has not yet been inspected to understand the issue. There were no previous lamps, messages, or other symptoms prior to the problem to indicate there may be an issue with the vehicle. A year ago, the vehicle had another issue where it engaged the parking brake on it's own. Was not in danger during this incident.

the truck is shutting off on it own while driving it has happen about 5 times already dealership cannot keep the issue and keep returning the vehicle to me. I feel unsafe for me and my family to be driving this vehicle. And Jeep services is no help. I have a case manager who keeps selling me. There's nothing they can do.
