2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee steering problems

Filed Oct 10, 2026 · Engine, Steering · NY

I am writing to formally request a review of an unresolved safety recall on my 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I recently received a notice regarding safety recall 89D/the federal safety agency 26V‑562, which indicates a serious rear coil spring hazard. Currently, replacement parts are unavailable, still being developed and no remedy has been provided. Because this defect poses a severe safety concern, I cannot safely drive the vehicle. Being left without safe transportation-through no fault of my own-creates an extreme hardship. Under federal standards and manufacturer responsibility, owners should not be stranded or forced to drive unsafe vehicles waiting indefinitely for backordered parts that have been unsuccessfully developed two times already. I am requesting that Jeep corporate authorize a free loaner vehicle or full vehicle buy back at my local dealership; [XXX]. Please contact me promptly at [XXX] with a case reference number and details on how my alternate transportation will be covered.

Here is the issue: vehicle sat all evening (an 8 hour shift) in the warehouse parking lot and it misty rained, so probably high humidity as well, the entire time. When I got in it at the end of my shift, and started it, cycling 3 times hoping the issue would clear, it had lost all electric power steering assist. The red steering wheel icon came on, lane‑keep assist disabled, traffic sensing disabled, and ACC showed ‘ACC Unavailable – Service Required.’ I limped the vehicle home - highly unsafe - to a dry somewhat environmentally controlled garage waiting for the roadside assistance tow truck to grab it next morning. When the towtruck driver arrived, he hopped in the vehicle, started it up, and it was as if nothing happened last night this dry, sunny morning. That must be a short somewhere. I spoke with Jordan at Dave Dennis CJDR in Dayton, OH, right away they said they checked it out, found old code U0131, cleared it, were not able to repeat the issue, and come get it. A few days, and much frustration later, I found this FOIA file, uploaded below, along with weblink [XXX] discussing a, quite concerning, to me, "known grounding issue" with "G908A faulty grounding." I have no indication on the below also attached invoice that that grounding issue was ever even checked, so I remain very concerned!

This is the 3rd internal mechanical failure of the front electronic disconnecting sway bar assembly on my Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe. The component keeps failing prematurely (most recently after only 3,000 miles), causing severe front-end looseness and clunking. This is a critical part of the suspension and it has failed 3x in 14k miles.
