What to do if your Jeep is on this list

A recall listed here applies to a range of vehicles, not to every car of that model year. Manufacturers narrow it down by build date and VIN, so the only way to know whether yours is included is to check the VIN. You can do that free on NHTSA's recall lookup, or by calling any franchised dealer for that brand with your VIN in hand.

Recall repairs are free. Under federal law the manufacturer has to fix a safety defect at no charge, and there is no mileage limit and no expiry on that obligation for vehicles under 15 years old. A dealer cannot charge you for the parts, the labour, or the diagnosis on a recall repair, and you do not need to have bought the car there. If a dealer asks you to pay, that is worth escalating to the manufacturer's customer line, which is listed in the remedy text of each recall above.

Recalls do not block a title transfer or registration in any state. You can legally buy, sell, or register a car with an open recall, and sellers are generally not required to fix one first. That said, an open recall is worth raising before money changes hands, especially one with a do-not-drive advisory. If you are buying, run the VIN before you hand over the payment; if you are selling, telling the buyer about an open recall costs you nothing and avoids a dispute later.

Jeep recall questions

How many recalls has Jeep issued?

NHTSA lists 232 recall campaigns for Jeep vehicles from 2010 onward, spread across 17 models. A campaign usually covers several model years at once, and a single fault in a shared part can trigger one campaign that touches many different models.

Does a high recall count mean Jeep builds unreliable cars?

Not on its own. Recall counts track safety defects reported to the federal government, not general reliability, and they scale with how many vehicles a manufacturer sells. A brand that sells millions of trucks a year will show more campaigns than a low-volume marque. Manufacturers that report faults early also show higher counts than ones that delay.

How do I find out if my Jeep is affected?

Pick your model below to see every recall issued against it, then check your VIN on NHTSA's lookup to confirm whether your specific vehicle is included. The VIN check is the only reliable answer, because manufacturers limit each recall to a range of build dates.

Where this data comes from

Every recall on this page is published by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the federal agency that oversees vehicle safety recalls in the United States. We pull the full recall file from NHTSA and reproduce the campaign number, defect description, consequence, and remedy exactly as the manufacturer reported them. NHTSA data is in the public domain.
