2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Driver Assist & ADAS Problems

While reversing on a snowy day the wheels proceeded to spin when the reverse sensors activated the brake system which resulted in damage to the rotor and breaks in the brake caliper resulting in tire failure and then suspension damage.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed and approaching a stopped vehicle, the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking system failed to engage, and the driver needed to depress the brake pedal at the last minute to stop the vehicle. The contact performed a test of the automatic emergency braking system. The contact stated that while two individuals were holding a beige sheet, the contact drove towards the sheet at 70 MPH, and the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking system failed to engage while the vehicle was near the sheet, and the vehicle struck the sheet. The contact then drove towards the sheet at 6 MPH and struck the sheet, then the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking beeping sound engaged. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed, and the contact provided the recording of the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking system failure to engage as needed; however, the contact was informed that no failure was found. The Service Director at the dealer informed the contact that the engineers for the manufacturer stated that the vehicle was functioning as designed. The manufacturer called the contact and offered monetary compensation to keep the vehicle; however, the contact declined the compensation and requested a trade or buy back assistance. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer offered to trade the vehicle for a 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact test drove the vehicle with a staff member from the dealer inside the vehicle, and the vehicle experienced the same failure. The failure mileage was approximately 200.

My 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe (VIN: [XXX] ) has experienced repeated safety-related failures. With only 3,169 miles, the vehicle became inoperable shortly after purchase and remained at a Florida dealership for 9 months waiting for parts. The hybrid battery and related components were replaced. After picking up the vehicle, while driving from Florida to North Carolina on [XXX], the Check Engine light came back on. A cooling system failure was diagnosed, which caused critical safety systems to stop functioning: the forward collision warning sensor, radar, and driver-assistance features all became disabled. A technician also discovered that a component requiring nine bolts was fastened with only two, indicating improper repair or assembly and creating a serious safety hazard. I brought the vehicle to AutoStar CDJR in Hendersonville, NC, where additional issues were documented: rattling/thumping noise under the vehicle at highway speeds, wind noise entering through the front windshield, and the Check Engine light still on. The advisor noted in writing that the vehicle had been in the Florida dealership for nine months and now shows new faults. As of December 7, 2025, the vehicle is again in the repair shop. I no longer feel safe driving it. The repeated failures of the hybrid/electrical system, cooling system, and critical safety sensors, along with evidence of improper assembly, represent a significant safety risk. I request that NHTSA investigate these defects, as they appear to indicate a broader safety issue with this model.

I have been having this error message appear intermittently in the car upon starting the vehicle since I purchased the vehicle in August 2024. See attached photo. The message appears seconds after starting up and will go away. Lane keep assist will turn off but I can turn it back on. Additionally, I have had a similar occurrence in multiple occasions while driving where these systems will turn off and present an orange light on the dashboard. I’m not able to turn the systems back on when this happens. It will reset itself after turning the car on and then off. I have had it in the dealer for this. The explanation was if the battery is below 80% charge this will happen. Seems like a weird response. You would think that if it happens once when the battery is allegedly under 80% charge, if you immediately turn off the car, and restart it ( not giving the car time to charge) it would happen again. I have tested that and it appears untrue. Appears to be some sort of software or sensor issues within the car. I have seen this issue online and the dealer seemed familiar with it on other cars.

The Active Lane Management (ALM) system shuts itself off which the displays a warning on the the instrument panel to indicate it has been disabled. If you try to turn it back on manually, it gives a warning that the system is unavailable and service is required. It will not allow you to manually turn the ALM system back on. I've taken it back to the dealership (9/7/25 repair ticket attached) where it was purchased but there were no computer codes shown to indicate what the problem was. They did an system update which did not fix the problem. Shutting off the engine and re-starting will clear this issue and you don't know when it may reappear (it could be the same day or possibly several weeks before it does it again). The service department has suggested I not shut off the engine but immediately bring it to them to see when this happens so they can run a scan for potential code(s) but they're an hour away and not always open when this occurs. My vehicle was purchased January, 2025 and has 10,300 miles on it now. I have a photo of the service required notification from September 4, 2025 showing mileage of 7,988 (attached). It had been doing this for approximately a month before I was able to get the photo. It continues to be an intermittent problem resulting in the loss of a safety feature of this vehicle.

The Active Lane Management {ALM} disengages and will not come back on unless you shut the car off. Took to dealer. Showed him picture of problem. Dealer could not get it to do it and said there were no fault codes showing. It has done this numerous times.

the issues I'm experiencing are a rubbing sound when breaking and turing the wheel. THE CAR TURNED ON AND COULD NOT BE TURNED OFF. nothing worked or responded no matter what you pushed. The brake sensor and lane assist diagnostic fault codes (error codes)popped up which they couldn't find a bulletin or error code to replicate the issue. The vehicle would not read the key fob, it would say the fob had left the vehicle because the door opened, or if i move the key while in the vehicle( bulletin for this issue). I get the call that my vehicle is ready and I'm driving away and the steering wheel vibration coming from the engine between 40 and 49mph feels like I should be driving on rumble strips, but the drive is smooth, this is coming straight from the engine or transmission when you accelerate through the steering wheel. This was not an issue before they ran their tests and fixed said problems. The computers are still updating on the screen and I hope that it evens out when the car turns on and off and the computers reset.NOW TODAY the car starts dinging and error codes are flashing on my dash. It's the lane sensor and the lane assist error code going crazy. This was the issue they couldn't replicate or find a bulletin on. Here's the fun part, the problem becomes more consistent when I apply the brakes. One time the brakes seem to not work properly. All these error codes pop up when you initiate the braking system. Then the final error code was warning me that the breaking system was faulty. I drove it straight to the dealership and left out with them again.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while her mother was driving, the rearview camera displayed a distorted image while the vehicle was in reverse(R) and failed to sound as intended, compromising the back-over prevention system. The contact stated that the failure prevented the driver from safely operating the vehicle. Due to the failure, the contact stated that her mother had been involved in a low-speed parking lot accident. The vehicle moved forward and hit a brick wall, where it came to a stop. It was unknown if warning lights were illuminated. The driver-side and passenger-side air bags did not deploy. There were no injuries sustained. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a collision center. The body damage was repaired. However, the rearview camera was not repaired. The insurance company was contacted. Weeks later, the contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign number: 24V944000 (BACK OVER PREVENTION). On a separate occasion, the contact was driving at 5 MPH while parallel parking, the rearview camera image froze, compromising the back-over prevention system. The contact stated that the failure prevented the driver from safely operating the vehicle. Due to the failure, the contact hit a cement flower pot, where it came to a stop. The driver-side and passenger-side air bags did not deploy. There were no injuries sustained. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The insurance company was not contacted. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 6,115.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the message "Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) Failure - Service Required" was displayed and the emergency brakes were erroneously activated causing the vehicle to abruptly stop. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who reprogrammed the AEB system, but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 137.

The system does not work in my 2024 Grand Cherokee. My dealer agreed to take me out for a drive and after several attempts to get the system to engage (straight on rear end, corner of a stopped vehicle, corner of an exiting vehicle) nothing! No audible, visual or brake jerk. The technician was an awesome driver because he scared the ---- out of us trying to get the system to engage. Service advisor had the tech take out another 2024 GC to perform the same test. We went with him. Same thing.....nothing. In both SUVs multiple tests at varying distance setting were performed. They tried to tell us that nothing is wrong because when diagnostics were run there were no codes, no error messages so no problem. Told them that isn't good enough. They finally agreed to open a "star" (I think) report with corporate and I will be taking my GC into the shop on September 11th through the 13th. There are many other Jeep owners stating the same thing. Effects multiple models and multiple model years. [XXX] has threads that are discussing the problem and Jeep Cares is a member of that forum. I have also seen complaints on a Jeep Compass owners site. I believe Jeep is fully aware but many owners may not be familiar with how the system works. Dealerships are telling customers that they can't fix the system because the diagnostics aren't registering a fault. I had three incidents where I was cutoff by other drivers and the system did not engage. The system is supposed to work at 3 miles per hour or greater, but it doesn't work at all.

The forward park usually works now it doesn’t and this is a 2024 jeep new from the dealer. Very unacceptable almost crash into another car bc the cluster will usually beep and show me how far I am when I get close and now i guess it just doesn’t do that anymore ? Can I get some help please and quick…..lot of money being spent on this monthly lease! I’d appreciate it thank u!!!!

Brand new vehicle with 11 miles on the odometer. The emergency Braking system does not work. If I go into the settings and make a change to emergency braking, such as far or close, the message “Auto Emergency Braking (AEB) Unavailable Service Required” will come up on the cluster display. Once I restart the vehicle it goes away. If I go back into the AEB settings and make a change, the message will come up on the cluster again. When I restart the vehicle and the message goes away, it still does not seem as though the Auto Emergency Braking system is working. This is very dangerous.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the display screen mal-functioned and the back over prevention camera froze with an image that there was no object behind the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and a diagnostic test was performed. The dealer performed a software update however, the failure of the frozen screen with the back over prevention camera persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, and the wires were checked, and the dealer performed a factory reset. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure, but the dealer stated the manufacture was working on a software update to be available by the end of February 2024. The failure mileage was approximately 230.
