I have had extensive issues with the 2022 Wagoneer Series III. Battery has failed, leather seats show wear and signs of peeling after 2 years, main car display blacks out repeatedly, moon roof rattles, heated seats have gone out TWICE in front seats and needed to be replaced, the list goes on. Most recently, the power steering went out while I was driving. I called the dealership and they told me it was likely a fluke and to keep driving it. 4 days later, an automatic update was installed and now the Forward Collision Warning light is on. I don't know whether the collision system will work or not - can't test it, obviously. My safety is obviously at risk. Power steering stops mid-drive. Anti-collision system errors out. These most recent issues started on November 1, 2024.

Started with the cold weather in December. I got a notification that I need to service the Power Steering system. Lasted for two drives and then went away. Approximately two weeks later, while driving my family in town, the power steering light came on again. Came to a stop at a stop sign and the car put itself in Park. The car put itself in park three more times in a span of 5 minutes of driving. The Forward collision warning light came on and would not let me drive forward. While driving, the electronic parking break came on and I almost lost control of the vehicle and fishtailed. Once I got to my driveway, the car struggled to make it up the driveway and once I put the car in park, it died. I had to jump the car to get it to the street. Once at the bottom of my driveway, the car struggled in reverse on a flat service. Service department has had the vehicle for a week and the last update that i have gotten was that the engineering department has to order a battery for my vehicle and that they are unsure what the problem is.

ABS lock up and collision avoidance system (blindspot sensor) failures - The vehicle has been serviced unsuccessfully 5 times now for shaking and vibration on the highway, software failures and blind spot collision avoidance sensor failures. Twice since I picked it up at the dealership on Saturday 9/17 (5th visit), the ABS has noted a system failure on the dash. It also shut down the collision avoidance system several times after noting a blindspot sensor failure. However, today after it noted the ABS failure, the brakes locked up the rear tires while braking. I reached out to Wagoneer on Saturday, and again twice today by phone and once by email to the rep at FCA and have not gotten a return call or email.

Major issues with the collision avoidance system - blind spot sensors continue to fail and shut off sporadically, or sensors in the mirror light up making you think you are about to hit someone when no one is near your vehicle. Has also shut down collision avoidance system and dinged multiple errant warnings for 3-5 minutes so badly we had to pull over and restart the vehicle. Additionally, the vehicle shakes in the steering wheel and passenger front seat intermittently between approximately 65-77 mph. They told us it was bad Nexen tires so we paid ~$1k to replace them and they replaced a defective rim. Vehicle is still having the same issues. This started at just over 2k miles. Vehicle was purchased in May 2022. Vehicle has been in the shop 4 times now and over 30 days to attempt repairs on the same issues. I do not feel safe driving my family in this vehicle. The Series III Wagoneer loaner that dealership just provided (with under 3k miles) is also having the same shaking / vibration issue and failure of the navigation system, but the shaking and vibration in the loaner is worse than in ours.
