2023 Jeep Wrangler owner complaints (15)
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Nothing has happened. They dont know when they can fix this issue and its a fire issue. The solution now is to park away from buildings, but car theft is high, and break-ins happen all around here, so that in itself is an issue. Should be at a dealer lot waiting for a fix and a loaner should be provided by Jeep.
- POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
While driving, my 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe suddenly loses drive power without warning. The car is a plug in hybrid vehicle. The vehicle routinely displays 'Electric Temporarily Unavailable'. When it happens, I press the accelerator and the vehicle does not respond; there is a delay of several seconds with little or no power before the gas engine engages. This is a serious safety hazard — the loss of power is sudden and unpredictable, and the delay leaves me unable to accelerate when merging or pulling into traffic. The condition is reproducible and began after the 68C recall software update. The driver expects a continuous level of power by the car, not a sudden power loss. This is reported by countless other drivers on all social media platforms as a consequence of the 68C recall that affects 350,000 Jeep Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer multiple times; each visit results in 'no codes found' and 'operating as designed,' and it has not been repaired. Jeep does not respond to customer complaints or requests for clarification.
- ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
2023 JEEP Wrangler Sahara 4xe has been recalled several times for battery potential fire risk issues due to faulty hi voltage battery design. Each time, a software patch was applied to provide a 'fix'. With my engineering background, I am very sensitive to machinery and its behavior. I have noticed with each successive update, the power output of the traction battery has been capped or limited to restrict maximum current draw from the battery to prevent over heating. With the latest 68C recall, there is now a clear safety issue. Power is restricted so much, pulling on a highway is dangerous. As I accelerate, battery output climbs to 50%, the engine comes on and there is a significant pause before acceleration can resume safely. Under battery only acceleration, the car bogs down with loss of power. The 4xe no longer resembles the vehicle I purchased. Jeep needs to do a physical remedy to restore original specs or buy back the car, 100% of purchase price. This is a clear safety issue. While Jeep has tried to fix the fire risk, they have created a new safety hazard.
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE
Recurring incident after completion of Jeep recall software update 68C intended to address fire hazard associated with the vehicle's hybrid battery. Since that update, when driving in standard Electric mode, the vehicle experiences a sudden loss of power, hesitation, and a physical 'bogging down'. Following this, the vehicle abruptly surges into combustion engine mode, causing a sudden and unpredictable acceleration lurch just after the vehicle has hesitated to accelerate. It poses a hazard for rear-end collision, attempting to pick up speed (e.g., to pass or move from a vulnerable position) and overall maneuvering and operation of the vehicle.
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE
Driving 75-80mph down the freeway when the car shut off. Had to pull over and shift to park per screen instructions before I could drive again.
- STEERING
I am the owner of a 2023 Jeep Wrangler that is currently affected by an active safety recall. I was informed by my dealership that there is no available remedy and that a repair may not be available for approximately two to three months. I am concerned about being expected to continue operating a vehicle that has been identified as having a safety-related defect while no corrective action is available. As a consumer, I believe it is unreasonable to issue a safety recall without providing owners with a timely solution or adequate support during the waiting period. This situation creates additional hardship because I have ongoing medical conditions that require regular healthcare appointments and reliable transportation. I am also planning a long-distance move to access better healthcare services, and I am concerned about the safety and reliability of driving a vehicle that is subject to an unresolved recall. I respectfully request that FCA review this situation and provide guidance regarding owner protections, alternative transportation assistance, reimbursement options, or other accommodations while a repair is unavailable.
- POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Failed Component: Powertrain (PCM/TCM/HCP software calibration) & Electrical/Steering (Fire Recalls). Safety Risk & Description: Following recent mandatory manufacturer software updates, this vehicle has developed a severe, dangerous drivetrain defect. Under light acceleration from a complete stop, the vehicle exhibits an extreme throttle lag and hard delay before violently surging forward, creating a high risk of intersection collisions. Furthermore, at sustained highway speeds (52–63 MPH), the vehicle abruptly drops out of Electric Mode, causing the gas engine to violently spike to 5,000 RPMs before dropping back. This erratic cycling causes the vehicle to lurch, jerk, and pull, actively disrupting lane control. Compounding this, due to consecutive, unresolved fire safety recalls—including Recall 68C (Battery Fires) and the June 2026 Power Steering Pump wiring fire recall—the vehicle cannot be safely parked inside my garage or near structures while turned off. It represents a total loss of normal use and a severe safety liability. Dealer Confirmation & History: The driving defect was formally duplicated and confirmed by a certified technician on 06/09/2026 at Ryan Auto Mall (Repair Order #471599). The technician explicitly documented the electric mode dropouts and acceleration lag in writing. However, because the vehicle’s software masking prevents standard Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from triggering, the dealer closed the ticket stating it is "operating as designed." The vehicle's electrical and hybrid systems have been repeatedly altered via mandatory safety recalls: Recall 23A/04B (05/14/2024), Recall 95B (05/27/2025), and Recall 68C (02/11/2026). No dashboard warning lights are present; the dangerous handling is entirely coded into the manufacturer's latest software updates. Vehicle is intact and available for inspection.
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE
The vehicle has an issue where when it is off and the key is nowhere near it. It turns on and makes strange noises. I have video footage of it that has been sent to the dealership and they were not able to duplicate it after a very short period of time at the dealership I’ve since had the same issue numerous times as well as the battery has since died as well. I’ve had other issues happen where the vehicle has died with no warning, and I lost all power. The vehicle often times overheats where if you touched the vehicle in certain spots, it’s burning hot. The electrical system seems to have faulty in it as things like the temperature are never accurate and seem to have issues with glitching that has not been able to be duplicated although I have video proof of that as well. Considering all of the safety recalls that have never been remedied like the battery fires. There is no actual remedy that’s been done. All they do is scan the batteries currently to see if there are current issues happening, but there have been fires that have happened to people’s vehicle since with all of the issues that I’ve had with my vehicle with it powering on when the keys are nowhere near it. It’s very scary to have a vehicle that can catch fire with all of the electrical issues currently has That have never been corrected.
- ENGINE
When accelerating the jeep lags to get between causing a jerking or launching feeling despite battery being charged or not. Difficultly getting to speed because the gears wont switch quickly making it scary to pull out of stops or merging
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
On two separate occasions, documented with the dealership, while driving, the Jeep failed to accelerate and instead decelerated. On one occasion, this occurred while I was in a single lane on ramp merging onto a highway and reached approximately 45mph. On a separate occasion, I was just pulling out of my subdivision and reaching approximately 30-35 mph when the same issue occurred. Both times, I pulled the vehicle to the side of the road as best as possible, and restarted the vehicle. The vehicle often fails to turn off, as it should. The vehicle has also failed to turn on as it should. The center screen turned off for a full trip. There is only approximately 15k miles on this 2023 Jeep Wrangler. The dealership most recently had the vehicle for 6 days but could not replicate the problem in 30 miles and there were no stored error codes besides two related to the radio generated by the HVAC module and the BCM module. An arbitrator found: Although the Customer had established proof of a nonconformity that could substantially impair the safety of the vehicle, I find that there have not been an unreasonable number of repair attempts nor days out of service. I have received three vehicle recalls warning of vehicle fire that have no known recall repair for months.

In Highway speeds the death Wobble is uncontrollable. To the point my daughters in the back got scared and cried thinking we would crash. I take to jeep and they told me nothing was wrong. They lied to me.
- STEERING
My vehicle is subject to open recall #26V-363 for Electric Hydraulic Power Steering. I contacted my local Jeep dealership to schedule the required free recall repair. The dealership refused to accept my vehicle, stating that Stellantis/Jeep has not yet distributed the remedy procedure or parts to their service department. As a result, the recall cannot be performed at this time through any authorized dealership. This situation creates an ongoing safety risk, as the defective steering system remains unrepaired with no available remedy. Additionally, I am suffering direct economic harm — my vehicle is listed on a peer-to-peer car sharing platform which has restricted my listing due to this open recall, and I am losing rental income daily with no recourse. I am requesting that NHTSA follow up with Stellantis to expedite distribution of the recall remedy to authorized dealerships so that affected vehicle owners can fulfill their obligation to have the repair completed.
