2022 Jeep Wagoneer recalls & complaints

1. Seats

What's wrong, in plain English: Seat frames, adjusters or child-seat anchors. The second-row center-seat recliner pull strap may bind on the seat trim surface, preventing the seat back from locking into the upright position. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 207, "Seating Systems."

What could happen: A seat back that is not locked into position can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace as necessary, the rear center-seat recliner strap, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 23, 2021. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is Y86.

1. Check whether your car is affected: enter your 17-digit VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. A recall covers specific VINs, not every 2022 WAGONEER.
2. Book a repair at any authorized Jeep dealer. Quote NHTSA campaign 21V919000 (manufacturer code Y86).
3. The repair is free. By US law, safety recall repairs cost the owner nothing, no matter the car's age or mileage.
4. Manufacturer hotline: 1-800-853-1403.
5. Buying this car used? Ask the seller for proof the recall was completed, or run the VIN yourself before paying.

2. Airbags

What's wrong, in plain English: The airbag system — the part that is supposed to protect you in a crash. The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) may have incorrect software which can disable the driver, passenger, and knee air bags without warning.

What could happen: Disabled air bags can increase the risk of injury to occupants in a crash.

The fix: Dealers will reprogram the ORC, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 2, 2021. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is Y79.

What could happen: A rearview camera that does not display an image reduces the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.

4. Body / structure

What's wrong, in plain English: Body panels, frame, doors, hood, trunk or latches. The upper B-pillar interior trim may not be fully seated and could interfere with the side curtain air bag (SABIC) deployment.
