- This isn’t the first time Jeep models have been recalled for rear spring issues.
- The large Grand Cherokee L is the most impacted Jeep model.
- Jeep dealers will replace the rear coil spring lower isolators free of charge.
Jeep issued a recall for more than 320,000 Grand Cherokee, Grand Cherokee L, and Grand Cherokee PHEV models across the United States, citing a rear coil spring that could fall off. Worse still, owners will receive no prior warning that a spring may be about to jettison itself onto the road.
The recall notice specifies an issue with the lower spring isolator, positioned at the base of the springs to prevent metal-on-metal contact. Jeep hasn’t said exactly what’s wrong, other than noting an incorrectly installed rear coil spring may come out of position and could detach from the vehicle while driving.

A total of 328,381 models are recalled. These consist of 97,477 Jeep Grand Cherokee models built between May 17, 2021, and May 31, 2023, for the 2022-2023 model years, 215,433 examples of the 2021-2023 Grand Cherokee L assembled from December 5, 2020, to May 31, 2023, and 15,471 units of the 2022-2023 Grand Cherokee PHEV assembled from August 4, 2021, to May 31, 2023.
Spring Issues Are Nothing New For Jeep
This isn’t the first time Jeep has recalled vehicles with a similar issue. In June 2023, it issued a similar recall, and in September 2025, the NHTSA informed Jeep it’d received 20 complaints about coil spring separation on vehicles that had previously been repaired. Jeep quickly launched a new probe, initially identifying 70 other claims. As of August 6, 2026, the number of warranty claims had swollen to 406, and Jeep has decided to issue a new recall.
Dealers will be alerted to the recall from September 9, while owners can expect to receive notice between September 29 and October 7. The rear coil spring lower isolators will be replaced free of charge.
