2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Engine Problems

Your 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe is subject to a safety recall because sand from the manufacturing process may have contaminated the engine, which could cause engine failure, fire, or complete loss of power while driving. As of April 2026, the manufacturer has not yet released a fix for this defect, even though they issued the recall in November 2025 and originally targeted February–March 2026 for a solution. The manufacturer has issued a stop-sale order on this model due to the unresolved safety issue, but has declared your vehicle operable and refused your buyback request. The repair will likely involve engine inspection and replacement or machine cleaning once the manufacturer develops and approves a remedy.

Manufacturer officially admits a risk of catastrophic engine failure and vehicle fire due to sand contamination, but states that no remedy is available. There is no remedy for the engine fire risk (Recall 78C). I do not feel safe driving this vehicle. The dealership (Fred BEANS, Doylestown PA) confirmed the recalls but cannot fix the engine issue. I am requesting a vehicle repurchase (buyback) because the safety risk is unresolvable at this time. ​I am filing this complaint because my 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe is subject to a high-priority safety recall (25V-766) involving catastrophic engine failure and vehicle fire risk. ​Despite the manufacturer admitting that a remedy is currently unavailable, I have attempted to resolve this through Jeep Customer Care (Case #95326573). However, the Case Managers have failed to provide any resolution or safety assurance. I have informed them that I do not feel safe operating a vehicle that could catch fire or lose power on the highway, yet they continue to delay the process and offer no alternatives. ​Management at Jeep Cares is not solving this issue and has left me stuck with an unsafe, fire-prone vehicle. The lack of a remedy combined with the lack of effective corporate support is unacceptable for a safety-critical defect. I am requesting NHTSA's assistance in ensuring the manufacturer takes immediate responsibility for this dangerous situation.

I am reporting a safety concern involving a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit 4xe. In under 15,000 miles, this vehicle has been subject to multiple safety recalls, including: Recall 78C – Engine fire risk (no remedy available) Recall 68C – Engine fire risk Four additional recalls, and Two engine warning events, indicating potential drivetrain or electrical instability The repeated nature of these defects, particularly multiple engine fire–related recalls, raises concern about the ongoing safety of this vehicle platform. There is currently no available remedy for Recall 78C. Despite this, the vehicle remains in active service under a lease, creating a situation where safe operation cannot be reasonably assured. I am requesting NHTSA review of: the adequacy and timeliness of remedies for these recalls, whether affected leased vehicles should remain in service when no fix exists, and manufacturer handling of vehicles with repeated safety failures.

Multiple critical safety defects since January 2024 purchase: TRANSMISSION: Sudden transmission failures with complete loss of power while driving requiring emergency repairs. BATTERY SYSTEM: 4xe hybrid battery system failed multiple times, vehicle inoperable. SIX UNREPAIRED SAFETY RECALLS including URGENT FIRE RISK (NHTSA 25V141000). COMPUTER SYSTEM: Repeated crashes affecting dashboard warning systems and vehicle controls while driving. ENGINE: Multiple performance failures causing unsafe loss of power. OUT OF SERVICE: Over 30 days total for warranty repairs. Problems persist after multiple dealer repair attempts. DEALER/MANUFACTURER: Stellantis refuses adequate remedy despite clear defects. Vehicle poses serious ongoing safety risk. Request investigation for recall expansion beyond current 6 unrepaired recalls.

Avis rented me this car with an active safety recall. The key fob even had a small sticker on it that had "Safety Recall" handwritten on it, indicating they were aware there was an active safety recall (these things are literally lighting on fire) -- and put me and my family's lives at risk. This is a flagrant violation of the Raechel and Jacqueline Houck Safe Rental Car Act. They refused to fully refund me for this glaring breach in safety.

I purchased a used 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe (approx. 64,000 miles) from EIDE Chrysler in Waite Park, MN on 9/30/2025. On the initial drive home, a “Service 4WD” warning appeared. Before I could return for the axle repair, a Check Engine Light for the hybrid system also appeared. After purchase, I also began experiencing exhaust fumes entering the cabin, which is a health and fire concern. At the time of sale, the dealership provided two contradictory recall printouts for the only recall they disclosed—one stated a remedy was available and one stated no remedy was available. I was verbally told the recall had been repaired. This was inaccurate. After the sale, I discovered that my vehicle now has two open NHTSA safety recalls, both with no available remedies: • 25V741 – High-voltage battery fire-risk recall (federal stop-sale order applies). • 25V766 – Engine contamination recall that may cause engine damage or failure. These recalls did not exist at the time of purchase, but the dealership never notified me when they were issued. Stellantis only notified me of one recall; I had to discover the second by checking my VIN on NHTSA’s site. The drivetrain warning, hybrid-system fault, and exhaust fumes occurred despite very low mileage after purchase. The vehicle currently has multiple unresolved safety defects, including fire risk and potential engine failure, and cannot be repaired due to lack of available remedies. I have opened a case with Jeep/Stellantis (Case #: 94881053). I am reporting these issues because the combination of drivetrain malfunction, hybrid-system warning, cabin exhaust fumes, and two unrepaired safety recalls poses a significant risk to occupants and other drivers.

This Jeep does not get the fuel milage it is suppose too (19 city and 26 hwy). It has a rough idle and almost dies when air condition is on at a stop sign or red light. The valves chatter no matter what octane of gasoline you use.

Vehicle states “Service Hybrid System” intermittently while driving and being idle. Vehicle shuts off intermittently while driving and being idle.
