This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The vehicle was newly acquired and was set to run on Electric mode. I was driving on the Highway at highway speed and suddenly without any warning, it lost all power due the what is called "FORM" making the electric engine unavailable. There was a semi truck right behind me which almost hit me since by losing my electric engine I dropped my speed suddenly. I had to pull over and try to figure out what was going on and switch to Hybrid mode. The issue is that #1 this comes without any warning at any moment, making your electric engine absolutely useless and then why do we even have the option of an Electric only engine. #2 we have no control on delaying even for just a few miles this FORM mode to allow us to get to a gas station or to a safe location since the button to switch to Hybrid mode is not located in an easy access while keep your eyes on the Road. #3 I end up in that FORM mode almost every other week now. This FORM is not even something that is communicated by JEEP in their advertisement. You can't find the information about it unless you end up having the issue and look for it. I don't even reach the advertised MPG due to the FORM. I use gas every day regardless so I should not need to be in FORM mode every other week
Gas gage is very inaccurate. Miles to empty falls dramatically faster than actual miles driven and then resets itself when car is turned off and back on. I have no confidence in the accuracy of fuel gage.
As noted on the IIHS.org website, 2022 and 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee's built prior to April 2023 experienced a fuel tank rupture in the side impact test conducted by IIHS. Stellantis redesigned the underbody structure to correct this issue. This redesign was put in place on vehicles assembled after March 2023. IIHS originally tested a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee in October 2022 and identified the fuel tank rupture during the side impact test. However, IIHS did not post this information on their website until almost a year later when tests of the redesigned vehicle were performed, and the fuel tank leak issue had been corrected. Hence, 2022 and 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee-??s built prior to April 2023 have a significant safety concern that IIHS did not inform the public about in a reasonable time frame and more importantly, Stellantis is aware of but has not issued a recall to correct the issue on vehicles that were built prior to the redesign. Please review the side crash results on IIHS paying attention to the 2022 test where the fuel tank ruptured. Brings back memories of the infamous Ford Pinto gas tank design. I am asking for NHTSA to assist in requiring Stellantis to issue a recall on vehicles built prior to the redesign to either modify the vehicle to address the fuel tank rupture concern, or if that is not possible buy back the vehicles. Please contact me by e-mail (piper@bnl.gov) of cell 631-258-5809 if you require more information to pursue this issue. Thank you.
Gas gauge, miles to empty, and low fuel indicator are not correct. I ran out of gas (without knowing it) twice. There was no gad light that came on. Fuel gauge said almost 1/4 tank full and 68 miles to empty. The first time this happened I had it towed to dealership thinking the AEB system stopped the car. Dealership found no issues. It happened a second time and my husband thought about the gas gauges being inaccurate and put gas in. He was right, started right up after putting gas in. After I filled it, I drove 300 miles before the Full line on the gauge started to move down. The whole system is not right when showing fuel levels. You would think the gas light would at least come on if you were out of gas
