121 complaints about the 2022 Jeep Gladiator

Newest first, as filed with NHTSA by owners. Page 1 of 5.

Steering

I was experiencing the same "death wobble" experience reported by other Jeep Gladiator owners. I brought the vehicle to the dealership out of concern about this safety issue and inability to control the vehicle as the "wobble" episode is occurring. The dealership charged me $200 diagnostic only to indicate that the same part affected and recalled in the TSN: 23-079-23 recall that only covers 2020 Gladiators. My vehicle is driven very little and only has about 40k miles. How could this part have failed...

already. The "death wobble" occurred well before the 40k mile mark but I had no idea what it was. Only after research did I discover it was identified in the 2020 vehicles and well documented. The dealership quoted me almost $700 to replace the steering damper that retails for $50-70. This is after already charging me $200 to inform me it is the same issue the NHTSA has identified in 2020 but I cannot have them repair at their cost. I was forced to purchase this piece and replace on my own as I could not afford $1000 for a $50-70 part despite its potential impact on my family's safety.

The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Gladiator. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle went into the death wobble. During the failure, the front end of the vehicle was shaking and vibrating severely, and the steering wheel was difficult to control. The four tires were replaced, but the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed, and it was determined that front drag links and steering dampeners needed to be replaced. The failure mileage was 35,000.

The DPF system has failed upon numerous occasions. This model is a 2022 they only made these diesels for 3 years in the gladiator and discontinued them I assume for reasons stated above. The issues is not resolved and continues to happen.

unacceptable safety hazard that places passengers and surrounding traffic at immediate risk of a high-speed collision or severe injury. Given that this model has low mileage (approximately 23,000 miles) and is under factory warranty, a catastrophic system shutdown like this indicates a critical safety defect within the electrical or powertrain control modules. I strongly urge the NHTSA to formally document and investigate this life-threatening defect to ensure manufacturer accountability and prevent potential accidents.

spontaneous vehicle fire while the vehicle is parked and the ignition is in the "OFF" position.The service department performed a cursory visual inspection and asserted that the vehicle "passed," thereby refusing to perform a physical component replacement. Recognizing the progressive nature of high-resistance electrical defects and the severity of the fire hazard, I explicitly requested a physical hardware replacement of the connector harness. The dealership management flatly refused to order the necessary manufacturer remedy parts or execute the component installation. IV. LEGAL VIOLATION AND REQUEST FOR INVESTIGATION Under federal law, 49 U.S.C. Chapter 301 and specific National Highway Traffic Safety Administration mandates, authorized franchise dealerships are legally obligated to remedy safety defects without charge and to the full satisfaction of eliminating the risk. A simple visual evaluation fails to alter the underlying manufacturing deviation or secure the long-term safety of the vehicle.By refusing to provide the physical component remedy, Lake Norman Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is in direct violation of its statutory recall obligations. I request that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration initiate an immediate investigation into this dealership's non-compliance, compel the submission of all service records for this visit, and enforce my federal right to a complete physical hardware remedy to mitigate this safety risk.

The third brake light is not working on my 2022 Gladiator. It was working, but shortly after purchase it stopped working. This seems to be quite the issue as I have seen many Gladiators of all years with the third brake lights not working. This is a safety issue and will not pass inspection if not working. Since there are so many years of Gladiators with inoperable third brake lights it shows that the manufacturer has not addressed the issue. They then turn around and charge up to 100 per light replacement....

Unacceptable! This is a government mandated item for vehicles, and as a mandated item it should work more than a couple of years. This is the first vehicle I have ever owned that has issues with the third LED brake light. If the government does not help correct this situation the manufacturer will never correct the situation, and replacement third brake lights will fail within a short period of time leading owners to pay for a part that fails continuously. I have read about many owners simply replacing the light with another Jeep third brake light and not reporting it, only to have it happen again later. Please do something about this highway robbery.

damage, including components related to braking and sealing. These components are available for inspection and were identified by the servicing dealership. Brake system involvement raises safety concerns, as reduced braking effectiveness can increase stopping distance and risk to occupants and others. The condition was confirmed by dealership technicians during service. The issue was not caused by misuse and occurred due to a delayed repair that originated under warranty but could not be completed due to parts unavailability and lack of notification. The vehicle remains under dealer inspection and repair. Warning symptoms were present prior to service, and the condition was confirmed by the dealership upon inspection.

from "Certified Safe" to "Failed" in only 6 months/12,000 miles following the axle rebuild. The Safety Risk: The failed stabilizer links and shocks have compromised the vehicle's stability and handling. This is a documented Workmanship Failure (likely due to improper torque at ride height/bushing bind during the June TSB repair). The Manufacturer Response: Jeep Corporate Case Management (Case #95545827) is currently refusing to authorize safety repairs under the 24-Month Mopar National Warranty, citing internal dealership billing issues. They are intentionally obstructing the repair of a documented safety hazard and ignoring the contradictory safety inspections provided by two authorized dealerships.

call me to come pick her up, unwilling to drive the vehicle any further. We currently live in Ohio; if we still lived in San Antonio, TX and she was driving on one of their raised overpasses, I fear what might have happened. I believed this to be an anomaly, but have now experienced this phenomenon on four out of five Jeep Wrangle/Gladiator vehicles within my own family, a failure rate of 80%. All occurred prior to 36,000 miles (but after three years). When I took the vehicle in for repair to the Jeep dealership, they modified my statement of the problem on official paperwork because, they said, if they mentioned "death wobble" on paperwork, they would have a team of engineers descend on their dealership (which they did not want). They also recommended a repair that did not fix the problem. As an engineer, I recognize this as likely a resonance design flaw. My fear is, based on this statement and my lived experience, this serious safety issue is being greatly under-reported. While some years/models have received recalls, not all have ... and Jeep appears complicit in addressing this safety issue across all vehicles exhibiting this frightening, potentially accident-inducing issue. I cannot understand why a recall does not cover all affected vehicles ... unless, as I mentioned, the issue is being under-reported by the company. Please investigate/address this issue before someone dies. I honestly believe I came close to losing one of my daughters that day.

I went to pass a tractor trailer on a back country road. When I got around the vehicle, I came up on a curve and had no power steering. Pulled over, shut the Jeep off and problem was "fixed". I towed it to the dealership the next time it happened and they changed the oil and told me it was out of engine oil causing the problem. It happened last week when I was passing a car, I shut the jeep off and the problem went away until today when I was passing a car. Two times I nearly crashed because there was NO WARNING that my power steering failed. This is insanely dangerous.

I suspect there is a design flaw with the gas tank. Everytime I put gas in the vehicle, and I go to multiple gas stations, the automatic shut off on the gas pump will stop pumping gas when the tank is full but the aperture to my gas tank regurgitates a great deal of gas onto the ground. Even when pumping at the slowest speed, I manage to spill 4 plus ounces of gas onto my car and the ground. This happens every time, and I doubt I am the only person this happens to. I have never had this issue with my other automobiles. This occurs every time I get gas.
