Stellantis issues second Jeep recall over loss of stability

Auburn Hills, MI – March 4, 2026 – Stellantis (NYSE:STLA), which owns the Jeep brand, is recalling 80,620 SUVs because a critical part of their suspension may detach. This would reduce stability and create a road hazard, upping the chances of a crash and injury.  

The following models are affected: 

  • 2022 – 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee 
  • 2021 – 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L

These vehicles were already recalled in July 2023 over the same issue. The repair performed on that occasion proved insufficient. 

Recall summary

A coil spring is a flexible suspension component that supports the vehicle’s weight and absorbs road bumps. 

In the affected SUVs, the rear coil springs were not fitted incorrectly and could detach while driving, causing the rear suspension to collapse. 

Recall risks

A vehicle with a collapsed suspension is less stable, while a loose coil spring may create a road hazard for other motorists. Both situations increase the risk of a crash and injury.  

Background of the recall

Stellantis already recalled these Jeeps in July 2023 for the same issue. Dealers were set to reinstall the springs but it appears that the repair was not performed correctly.

Other Jeep recalls

In December 2025, more than 110,000 hybrid Jeep SUVs were recalled over the risk of fire and stall caused by engine failure.

In November 2025, Jeep recalled approximately 320,000 hybrid SUVs whose high-voltage batteries could have overheated and caught fire.  

The repair

The dealers will inspect the rear coil springs and repair them if needed. This will be done free of charge. 

Notifications to the owners will be mailed between March 19, 2026 and March 20, 2026.

Stellantis recalls Jeep Grand Cherokee, Wrangler over reduced visibility

Auburn Hills, MI  – March 4, 2024 – Stellantis (NYSE:STLA), which owns the Jeep brand, is recalling 199,143 plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) due to an issue with the windshield defrosting system, which may up the risk of a crash. 

The following models are affected by this recall: 

  • 2022 – 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 
  • 2021 – 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Recall summary  

Jeep PHEVs are controlled by a computer called the hybrid control processor (HCP) that receives inputs such as speed, and uses them to “manage the system energy” and control vehicles’ drivability. 

In the affected vehicles, an HCP software error may cause the windshield defrosting/defogging system to malfunction.   

Recall risks

The defect can reduce visibility when the vehicle is being driven in rain or snow, increasing the risk of a crash and injury.
