NHTSA campaign 25V766000 covers certain 2024-2025 Jeep Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid vehicles. Casting-sand debris inside the engine can contaminate internal components and cause catastrophic engine failure, an unexpected loss of drive power, or an engine-compartment fire. Owners m… Severity: high.
eTorque (mild-hybrid) Wranglers replace the conventional alternator/starter with a 48V belt-driven motor-generator (BSG/MGU) plus a 48V power pack unit (PPU) and a 12V system. Owners report charging-system failures, battery warning lights, rough/failed auto-starts during stop-sta… Repairs typically run $0-$3,000. Severity: high.
The solid-front-axle JL Wrangler continues to produce death-wobble reports on brand-new 2024 and 2025 trucks. NHTSA complaints describe the trigger consistently: crossing a bridge expansion joint, road seam or rough patch at roughly 45-75 mph, after which the steering wheel and f… Repairs typically run $150-$900. Severity: high.
NHTSA campaign 26V363000 covers certain 2021-2025 Jeep Wrangler, Wrangler 4xe and Gladiator vehicles. High resistance at the electric-hydraulic power steering pump electrical connection may overheat combustible material and cause a vehicle fire, including while the vehicle is par… Severity: high.
JL Wranglers (and the related Gladiator) are widely reported to have vague, loose on-center steering that wanders and drifts at highway speed, forcing constant correction. This is distinct from death wobble — it is excessive play and tracking instability in the steering gear itse… Repairs typically run $0-$1,200. Severity: high.
Wrangler 4xe owners report repeated dead 12V auxiliary batteries and, in some cases, complete electrical shutdowns.
