Jeep Recalls 328K Grand Cherokees over Rear Coil Springs that Could Detach While Driving
Jeep says the fix will replace rear coil spring isolators after 328,381 SUVs were found at risk of spring detachment.
Chrysler is recalling 328,381 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs because rear coil springs may be incorrectly installed and detach while driving, affecting 2021-2023 Grand Cherokee, Grand Cherokee L, and Grand Cherokee 4XE models.
This campaign replaces two prior recalls, as Chrysler determined the rear coil spring lower isolators were not installed as intended, allowing springs to shift out of position during vehicle operation.
The affected population includes 215,433 long-wheelbase Grand Cherokee L units, 97,477 standard models, and 15,471 Grand Cherokee 4XE specimens, with recall documents estimating only 0.1 percent actually affected and no accidents reported.
Because the repair is not yet available, Chrysler will send interim notification letters to owners starting September 29, 2026, after dealers nationwide receive notice by September 9, 2026.
Detached springs create significant road hazards for other drivers; owners concerned about their vehicle can search Vehicle Identification Numbers on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website to verify inclusion.
