Jeep Wrangler 4xe Fire Recall and Service Charging System Soon Error
After getting a service charging system soon error on my Jeep Wrangler 4xe, I had my Jeep serviced, got the error again and received a notice from Jeep that my battery is at risk of fire and that I shouldn't charge it anyway. The dreaded 95B recall as it is known. It's a very frustrating aspect of ownership!
The good news is that I can continue driving it, but I cannot charge it as a depleted battery is less likely to have a fiery demise.
Financially, this isn't great as I now have to run my @Jeep on expensive gasoline. The whole reason I have a plug-in hybrid its to save money and help reduced my contribution of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere.
If you have any advise, please share it ...

Good video. I know always a vehicle is hands down a personal like or dislike. One thing that the Cherokee separates itself from all others in the class, if properly equipped is potential towing capabilities.
7:33 I immediately liked the video!
Would you recommend the v730 over nt555g2
Baby wipes, can toss em back in and reuse them a whole bunch, pack will last years and years of screen cleaning.
Did you have to buy a new dash for that?
The 4xe is not designed to use as mainly electric. I's a Hybrid that's why they call it a Hybrid.
I'm done with the electrified woke leftists junk. Back to V8
Chevy 👍👍
return it duh
Yeah but the Caprice was a better high speed pursuit vehicle and held up Much better when it came to pit maneuvers and other rough play
Mine 22 has done the same. Service has replaced battery twice. As soon as I get it home I start it and every alarm goes off. It hasn’t been charged for weeks. It can’t be driven because the alarms won’t let me get it into drive. It’s been towed several times and the dealer has no idea what to do.
need help cause the key part won't come out on mine.
Living in a emissions required state, I'm debating on Kerma vs Mr Tunning. Mr Tunning has an emissions-on but the possibility to have a delete but with readiness programmed... Im curious about mpg gains with the dpf vs without. My '15 is still under warranty so unsure if i should wait till any failures or enjoy the car. Thanks for the video
Long comment but a huge win from what Jeep is giving me at the bottom. My Grand Cherokee is impacted. I called and complained, making it to the executive complaint department because of their awful customer service. Emailed multiple executives to get to the executive care team. They refused a buyback but offered me $250 a day for rental reimbursement and are paying my Jeep payment until the recall is fixed! Still a brand detractor and moving to Chevy as Jeep customer service was deplorable, to say the least. Would have been a brand promoter if they did the right thing and did an asset swap or buyback, which would cost them less than the offer they gave me. Silly they want to pay more because, and I quote, they can't sell it to anyone else when there is a recall that can't be fixed, leaving me little hope it'll be fixed soon and even less hope regarding getting a quality product.
Great job! I am in the beginning of the process. Would you have any recommendations or suggestions on how I can possibly get closer to your results?
GM should have put a third row in it. Can't believe this oversight!
useless video i ever seen lol
My 2022 Rubicon 4XE is still being charged and enjoyed. 40k miles with zero issues. Amazing vehicle
Best thing I did was get rid of that thing! Had a 22’ Rubicon 4xe and loved it and how it drove. Had it a total of 8 months and it spent about 4 months in and out of the shop. 👎🏼. Moved on and now in a 23’ 4Runner. The concept of the 4xe was cool, but they just do not have that thing figured out yet.
Same
There should be a class action lawsuit for selling you a time bomb with no fix.
Relax with the fear mongering. 13 reported vehicles have had issues- that’s a far cry from a “time bomb”
I'm working to get out of my lease. They won't let me.
I have a transmission that needs replace and the battery recall. They refuse to buy me out. I'm so disappointed.
That Stellantis is the same color as a "Lemon" for a reason. 😂😂😂
Have you checked the pins on your J-1772 to see if they look burned? Almost sounds like a weird variable is going on.
Do what I'm going g to do, trade it in.
I traded in my 2022 4xe for a Defender 110...too many recalls and this latest one in which i can't park in in my garage was the final straw.
Won't get much for it now.
You have to make sure your charger is not on extension cord or strip outlet and have a level 2 charger I recommend having it professional installed I learned the hard no issues since !!!
The issue is not the charger. Its battery separation and arcing.
Appreciate the video. I also have a 4xe (2024) No issues other than a potential recall. Mine has not shown up on the NHTSA or MOPAR apps either and I have not as of 10-29 received a letter. Curious if your VIN showed up on the apps after you received the letter? Also for additional advice, the 4xe Fans youtube page is a good resource. On another note, I have a good friend who is a Lemon Law attorney and said to send letter to him if received. There is a precedent for a buy back when they are unable to fix it within reason and the vehicle does not meet the expectations that were promised, i.e. using it in electric mode etc. The precedent was the Chevy Bolt. He had 100 cases in California where GM bought them all back. Just and FYI.
The issue is the charger, not the jeep. Also no they cannot disable a vehicle from charge remotely.
It's not the charger. It'd battery separation
@snootyfox.indahouse the recall is but that would not cause that. The battery recall don't have a software code yet or error. That why we are all waiting.
Keep that thing down at your end of the street! LOL.
the tail light thing bothers me too. good way to get rear-ended
Front wheel drive is absolutely better in the snow.
Some reflections, and it might have to do with the trim levels of the car, but… I have a 2023 XC. I can keep the auto headlights on when i start the car the next day, and you can adjust the temperature and seat heating using the buttons on the display-you don’t need to bring up the main view for temperature. I’m an Apple user and I’ve just installed the apps in the car, and they work really well. I think many of the issues you're having are due to a lack of familiarity. Have you gone through all the settings you can adjust in the car? If you set the light control to auto before starting the car, then activate the automatic high beams and switch back to auto, you won’t need to do this again. The high beam automation will be set as default.
One thing that I love about it is that it is qualified by the DMV for a carpool decal which gives me the privilege to drive it in the carpool by myself (here in California the carpool is for 2 people or more)
Tail light

So I purchased a 2015 volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI SEL Premium in May 2018 with 21,325 miles. It shows "your vehicle was modified on December 8, 2017 // 21,303 Miles". The car just hit 60K miles and it started having intermittent starting issues. It cranks, won't start. The in tank fuel pump is not turning on. I suspect it's the pump or fuel module. The module is around 300.00 and the fuel pump shows one for 130.00 and another for around 600.00. I suspect it's the 600.00 pump. I don't want to spend money if this would be covered under warranty. Any idea (today is September 28, 2024) ??? Thank you!!!!
You are still under the, "11 years or 162,000 miles, whichever occurs first, from the vehicle’s original in-service date." You might have to fight with your local dealer a bit, and they might try to charge you a diagnostic charge incase it isn't covered under the warranty. Try to find out your in-service date. the dealer should be able to find that out for you.
just got a 99 manual 4x4 150k miles v6 for 1500
2002 XE purchased in 2008 for $8000 with 32K and now 16 years later at 179K still running strong! Getting ready for the next 100K minimum.
I have a 2014 Dongfeng Rich ZNA 4X4 which is a 2000 Frontier, next to no electronics on it, 2.4L 5 speed, heavy metal body panels, mine only has 74k km on it or about 45k miles, I have mine custom modified for jungle adventures here in Amazon, looks like crap out side but under the body it's heavily modified, super easy to work on it, nothing complicated, no air bags either...
I purchased and install the yellow version (cost twice as much as white!) from Amazon, initially in the horizontal orientation which I thought logically should work as it is the same orientation as the factory halogen bulb orientation on my 2004 Toyota Sienna. After turning them on, I was not able to see any yellow light beam coming from the normal driving position unless I lean forward all the way toward the windshield or look at the fog lights from outside of the vehicle. Since there were a few reviews mention on the Amazon that these light bulbs was dim for LED bulbs so I thought that was normal since these are only ~9W/bulb after all. After watching other demonstration videos and reading the AUXITO manual instruction carefully again, next day I reinstalled them in the vertical orientation as per manual instruction and was able to see the yellow beams covering the entire front as well as the extra wide corner arears on both far side of the bumper where the current high power 65W/30,000LM/bulb HIKARI 2023 Futurer with the Titanova LED light chips headlight bulbs does not cover. Vertical orientation is definitely the only way to install these LED bulbs for optimal light output on these fog light housing and AUXITO seems to be the only H3 bulb manufacture I am able to find on Amazon to have the extra cut outs on the metal disk bracket to accommodate both orientations. This actually explains why a few reviewers on Amazon mentioned about the output was dimmer than they expected as they might had installed these bulbs in the horizontal position. After the installation I did re-aim the fog light alignment with the industry alignment standard procedure to get the optimal coverage while avoiding hyper flashing the in coming traffic: - Inflate all tires at Cold Tire Temperature Standard of 68F/20C with regular daily load throughout the vehicle after parking for over 3 hours or overnight at recommended or desired tire pressure level - Park the vehicle on a leveled flat surface with a flat wall and measure 25 feet between the flat wall to the middle of the fog light lenses (not the bumper or the license plate) - Measure the height distance from the ground up to the middle of the fog light lens (14" for me) - Adjust both fog light top cut off beams 4" lower than the previous measured distance from the ground up on the flat wall (10" for me) Thanks for making this video.
I would hate to build a house for this guy. If there were 12 things I didn’t like about any car, I would get rid of it. He is unbelievable. Thumbs down on this video!
But do like the vehicle, would you get another? We are thinking about purchasing a ‘21 or’22 later this week from Enterprise. It would be our first non TDI Volkswagen.
Everything of any value is becoming more expensive, even these trucks. Value has pretty much been eliminated in almost every other part of life so those that remain will get eaten up too.
You appear much more credible when you have your glasses on in videos. I suggest always wearing them on camera in the future.
Just bought a new vehicle in May. And now you put this out in August. Very disappointing JJ! Thanks for the tips.
Did you get another Civic?
@@doublejslist You are hilarious! A wonderful fossil fuel guzzling pickup truck.
The taillight arrangement is weird, but dont see it rising to the level of "drives me crazy"; what would bother me far more is the "dont have turn signal colored turn signals in the rear" which is epidemic in the US.
I love amber turns! It blows my mind that we don’t mandate rear turns to be amber.
They could easily have had the motor in the back; they could use that round space that is clearly 90% of a spare tire well but wont quite fit a tire cause it has a straight edge on one side (apparently only for storing a tire that alrfeady has a flat) thats under the storage space thats below the trunk space.
They are very underpowered, lawd so slow lol.
I found the V6 to be adequate. I’m willing to bet the 4 cylinder Frontiers were anemic.
That would barely get me to work. Most people I know in Chicago commute over 25 miles one way to there job
So you save money on your way to work my gas engine kicks on on my way home from work. I fill up half as much as I would if it were a non-hybrid.
We've kept the factory screen cover on and still looks brand new. You shouldn't have taken the temporary screen protector off.
So when you swap your car did you have to pay them for the new car . Like the usage of old car did they deduct the money from current one ,
I just had to make up the difference in MSRP, which was about $1000.
3:04 you can thank Renault for that
Miss shifting ??? When i have to go back to driving gas cars im always astonished how shitie they seem. Im spoiled by the one pedal driving and would never go back.
I’m an enthusiast at heart. When I want to shift, I take my Miata out for a ride.
