we are having the same issue and no one could figure it out. Thank you for posting this. I am going to take this to the jeep dealership

You are absolutely correct, but I wouldn’t hold my breath. Quality has never been associated with any of the Jeep Dodge etc… brands.

I’m not here to bash Jeep or Stellantis, but unfortunately this is spot on. I recently test drove a Dodge Hornet R/T (the PHEV) for a few days. I liked the car more than I thought I would. However, after the car sat overnight unplugged, I came out the next day and upon startup was greeted by the whole Christmas tree of dash lights. Tested the 12 volt battery and it was way low. I tried to jump the car with my jump pack, but it wasn’t having it. A brand new car with 90 miles on the clock had to be towed back to the dealership. I’m going to have a video about it on my channel hopefully soon.

Are vehicle has been doing this for days and the temp was 14 degrees c = 57 F

Looks like he paused his Etsy store. Too bad. Wanted to pick one of these up.

Drive a 5th Gen 4 Runner now. Three jeeps, nothing but problems with all of them. Sold my 2021 Jeep 4XE back to the dealer. My son and I just spent time in Moab. Miss my Jeep, but it’s simply not worth the unreliability, hassle and rude service departments. Jeep has blown it. That had such a great niche market.

I have had my Jeep 2022 4xe Jeep Rubicon since April. I have put 15,000 kms on it and I have had no problems at all, just saying

The hitch weight and carrying capacity is already small and a common complaint and limiting factor. The significant increase in curb weight (and loss of space) due to the battery for the electric system is going to make it useless as a truck. Many owners don’t realize that added weight of mods in bigger wheels and tires, rock rails, bumpers etc take away from both capacities.

Sorry to hear that about your Jeep. I have had 5 warranty issues on my 2021 Jeep Gladiator Overland in 4 years. It has been 4 years exactly that I have own my Jeep. This is my first Jeep. I love my Jeep too, but hate the problems! Speaking of Jeeps in the shop. I’m picking up mine today after having my defrost wire pop off my rear glass hardtop. Also had my auto transmission replace at the beginning of the year at 35,000 miles.

Save your breath. They have no incentive to increase quality. They make the majority of their money doing repairs, and Jeep has such a following few ever leave the brand.

Chris sad to say time to move on… things At Stellantis are only getting worse and not for the better. You’re a good guy within the next year I plan on moving on my self.

I have a new 4xe that is only 3 weeks old. No issues yet. Do you think quality has improved since this is the 3rd year of the 4xe? 🤞

I owned jeeps for 35 years. Now I drive a Toyota 4Runner Gen 5.

An electric jeep is dumb as Joe Dirt

I have been driving Jeeps for 28 years and I really wanted to order a new JL or Gladiator but due to the aluminum corrosion issues that Jeep refuses to fix their manufacturing processes to prevent no thank you I’ll sit on the sidelines. I’m not a fan of the pentastar either it is long over due and a turbo 4 is not the answer. I can only imagine their full EV version will be a train wreck whenever that comes out. You are right their poor quality should not be accepted for the prices they are selling these things for. Good luck with your 4XE I hope all the bugs are worked out soon.

I have a 21 Jeep Gladiator with over 50,000 miles. I have not had any problems at all.

I’m a first time jeep owner. I’ve owned my jeep for exactly 52 days. 26 of those days, the jeep has been in the shop for a turtle mode light. They can’t seem to figure out what the answer is. And they don’t seem motivated to resolve it. They, I mean, the engineers at JEEP that have been called upon to find a solution.

Ok I've got it. All the pro negative comments on the 4×e stay posted but the positive on my 4xe doing fine comes down. No big time problems with my 4×e. Guess that's really bad news.😮

Unfortunately, I think most of the workforce these days is poor quality, which bleeds into the vehicle.

What is wrong with the doors, hood and tailgate?

I love my "22 4xe Sahara, but I worry about a breakdown all the time. While I have had far less problems than others have had, it hasn't been perfect. I actually bought a "beater car" as a back-up to drive if and when the next problem occurs.

Have a 2014 JKUR and have been having the thought of getting a new Jeep mainly because I have eight speed transmission envy. I am mainly interested in a Gladiator because I do more towing and camping now days. My 2014 JKUR has been far from perfect. The first oil cooler went out about forty thousand miles. Replaced with a Dorman which then failed ten thousand miles later. I then went back to the OEM version. Rocker arm failure at sixty thousand miles, luckily I caught it before much damage to the cam. Radiator failure at sixty-five thousand miles along with a clogged heater core. Replaced the radiator with OEM along with an extensive flush. Lots of weird debris found while doing the flush. During the life of my Jeep, on hot days, when towing a 1300 lb. teardrop it has had overheating issues which persist to this day. The HVAC control module and HVAC blend door are now out. These same issues occur in the new production Pentastar based Jeeps ten years after I bought my Jeep. Today I am doing ball joints (not unexpected as this is a wear item). Since I went out of warranty in 2017, I have lived the Jeep motto " Making mechanics out of drivers sine 1941". I can not imagine buying something as complicated as a 4XE from the Stellantis ownership group, as most of my problems occurred right outside of warranty. I can not imagine taking a 4XE off road in remote areas. I am not sure my mechanical skills would be up to the task. Currently in my area, dealers are offering over twenty thousand off MSRP on 4XE and they are not moving. I can not imagine what that does for residual value for people who purchased a couple of years ago. Jeep just screws their customer base in so many ways. No more Jeeps for me until there is a new owner group who invests in engineering and quality control! For now I will hold onto my 2014 and excise the demons as they appear.

Great video, my wife had a 2022 Grand Cherokee 4xe that was riddled with issues, got stranded 2 times and the Jeep was also stuck at the dealer for countless recalls and fixes and failed diagnoses and basic quality issues like bad ball joints etc. It was a nightmare and we lost a lot of money on that trading it in for something that we felt could be reliable. We do also have a 2023 Wrangler 4xe that we got not too long after the Cherokee back when we initially were enjoying it, but honestly its been very good to us so far as we have taken it offroad many times across the country and really only 1 minor issue after thousands of miles so either we are lucky or they are getting better at stomping out problem areas and refining the Jeeps over the years. I do think it would make for a good video if you could try and take a look at the number of recalls and the overall ratings for the Wrangler 4xe by years up to 2024 and see if it seems like Jeep is in fact getting better at resolving these issues or if its consistent in the number of complaints and what not. Overall though I agree with you, Jeep does need to step up on reliability across the brand, switching to a new powertrain is always going to be risky and result in issues without a doubt and thats why being a early adopter is very risky, but I do think a lot of this in inexcusable and if Jeep doesn't fix this soon, this could really kill the brand for a lot of die hard Jeepers and potential future customers; not sure at the moment, but depending on how the 4xe plays out this may be our last Jeep; we love it but we got the Jeep to be adventurous and get out in nature and if we cant trust it to get us back home safely or if its constantly at the dealer and not with us then its not really serving its purpose and theres lots of competition out there now.

My biggest issue was when my 4xe was down for repeated oil leaks that finally was diagnosed the right way and was a gasket assembly issue from the factory. It was down for 2 months overall last summer. Since then 25k miles later it has been good. My Battery SOH is declining and I believe before the end of the winter will need to be replaced.Hopefully Samsung and Jeep addressed this in the newer models. Battery replacement should be a 2% decline YOY. Not 6-7%. I think a lot of the coolant motor issues are related to not properly bleeding the system and running them with low/ none of the coolant through them and burned them up. I check my levels monthly and when I first got it the system was down on fluid and had to be filled back up. Then the engine work required the coolant system to be pulled. They said that they bled the system but a day later it was dry. People assume that it’s taken care of and then it fails because they didn’t check the coolant system reservoir. Or check the fuses or replace the stock 12v battery.

I am currently experiencing this issue and your video was able to help my dealer identify the problem! They kept checking the steering and front suspension. I am also glad this is covered under the manufacturer's warranty. WHEW

New Hondas aren’t doing well either same with Toyota. Everyone is having quality issues, glad my ranger is 2019 I just missed the outbreak. Now I’m looking to sell it and get an even older diesel.

Jeep/Stellantis quality is in the dirt right now. They’ve laid off so many MI staff and engineers. I don’t think quality is a priority of Mr. Tavares. What’s worse, I’ve heard so many other reputable brands having same poor quality issues the past few years. I’m not even sure where to turn when my GC 4xe lease is up. Even Toyota is having engines recalled now.

My Jeep is never broken. Virtually ever. It's an older 4.0 powered Jeep and it was built like a tank. No electrical B.S.

First ever Jeep video I’ve seen. Glad I don’t own a jeep. Now I know I never will.

This has convinced me not to travel to the past to buy a 2021 and have decided to get a 2024 4xe.

23 4xe.........had it for 21 months. 2 total months at the dealership. For me it was ALL 2.0L turbo issues but a lot of it is dealerships don't know how to do repairs. Thats a BIG issue. But the largest issue IS the board room. They are murdering the ends user and the dealerships too, although they deserve it. I don't, you don't, no end user deserves this. Next car is gonna be me lifting and doing weird stuff to a AWD crossover. Stelantis and Jeep boned their brand hard. Luxury prices for a non-luxury vehicle that breaks all the time. Ya, that's called incompetence. With that said, the 4xe wrangler, when its working is great. Another brand needs to fill this niche and keep the price down. But it will not be Ford, their nuts too. Toyota could do it..........

I agree. This is my second wrangler. I had a 2018 wrangler JL and was same. For the rust I would have wait one more years. Rust warranty is good for 5 years. so will wait when it get worst. Both my JL rust after 3 years. My second car is a mistubishi eclipse cross. Wierd never had any check engine light on it 😆. Never at the dealer. Especially the cost they are now, they need to improve on the part quality.

So I work for a government fleet and by a large margin the Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, Stellantis products we service are all junk. Rocker arms fail, oil filter housings leak, oil pumps leak, they can't handle any abuse. The dealers all know what the issues are but they don't want to ever admit it because they want you to come back and buy another POS. Jeep as a brand died in 2006 when the old school cheap 4.0 liter Jeep wranglers got replaced with the soccer mom/Chili's Day manager 4 door Wrangler rolled onto the scene. The 3.8 liter was bad but the 3.6 is worse. The dealers are all struggling right now with a product that's marked at Lexus prices but have FIAT build quality. They are way to expensive and definitely not built for the average working man anymore, and it sucks that an American brand has gone downhill to such a degree that the original Jeep people from 20+ years ago will not buy the new ones.

So honest question, did you expect any better out of a PHEV stelantis product? I’m not even a hater of modern jeeps, but picking the battery one is a brave choice

When you spend over 65K (CAD$) for a car, it should not be a in the shop all the time. This is true for any car. I have a 2022 4xe I have had no issues other than having a my front door gaskets changed 3 times as water was comming in during rain

Wow - I am shocked. I have a 2022 4xe Rubicon JL and it’s never been in the shop other than oil changes and recalls. It’s got 46k miles on it and I’ve had it across the country and back twice and off road many times. Can’t believe how many issues you’ve had - might be it’s a lemon.

I have not had any problems with my 4Xe. The last vehicle I had any problems with was my 1978 Chevy Monza. That was my last American I bought car before my current 4Xe. I guess I got lucky.

Finally. I was curious to see when Chris will arrive to this conclusion. I also have a 2021 4xe with the engine light on again and waiting for doors and hood. Plus many more things in the past. This is my first Jeep and it will be my last.

….. but we all still love the Wrangler. But I agree there a some topics over year and also quality issues that are not in control. And also even when the jeep get more and more expensive with less warranty years etc greetings Monty

Chris, you are way too nice! This quality level is absolutely unacceptable, period. No wonder they are down on profit so much. Honestly, I am surprised they are still in business, but if they keep going like this - it won't be too long till they aren't

First and last time jeep lease. I was thinking of buying my lease out early on. But then the value plummeted to less than half of the buyout. And reading on all of the issues put me way off. My wife had the Pacifica hybrid but the transmission failed and was replaced under 9,000 miles. Didn’t have other issues but forever wanted to get rid of it as I didn’t trust it as it would shut off suddenly on the highway with my kids. I’ve had one minor issue besides all the recalls that took months waiting on parts and a few rentals to fix. It just doesn’t let me out faith in the brand and the price is insane. I can get luxury vehicles for less than a Jeep 4xe these days. Screw that. The dealership is not worth the price.

I have a 2024 4Xe Willy’s So far so good, Not one issue yet… and it’s an awesome vehicle

My 21 sahara 4xe is in the garage waiting for a new battery. I love my jeep but never had so many problems with a car

This convinces me not to buy a 4XE, but I needed that. Thank you!!

Reliability is their number one issue, IMO. Unfortunately, it's hard to achieve and easy to lose. Even Toyota and Honda seem to be having issues these days on some models. With all the bad news regarding Stellantis these days, I am not too hopeful, at least for the near term.

Hi Chris, feel your pain. I have a 2021 4XE rubi. Many similar issues that you have experienced. Hybrid battery replaced in fall of 22. Last 20 months had nothing fail in my Jeep! Knock on wood. Love my Jeep, will never buy another one. My Jeep has spent several months sitting at the deanship. Just nuts. Thanks for all your work, have helped me work through many issues. I did not see the reason for your door, hood, tailgate issues, paint bubbles?

New gen Hondas have had serious issues unfort - used to be solid

Chris seriously test drive a Model Y and consider that route, get yourself an old school Jeep for off-roading purposes.. that's the route we went and couldn't be happier with our Tesla purchase!! 👍💪💪

This is the exact reason why my wife and I walked away from the Jeep brand.. we had two of these and turned them in early just to get rid of them!!

Jeep is the Boeing of car manufacturers
