Jeep’s Grand Cherokee 4xe and Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid models have been the subject of several significant safety recalls following reports of high-voltage battery fires in these SUVs.
A class action lawsuit against Jeep and its parent company, Stellantis, was filed on behalf of drivers who owned or leased one of the affected 4xe models. Our law firm (Heygood, Orr & Pearson) is not part of that class action lawsuit, and we are not counsel for the putative class. The class action lawsuit is titled Frisch et al v. FCA US, LLC, Case No. 2:2024cv10546 (E.D. Mich.), and the court has appointed the law firms of Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, LLP, The Miller Law Firm P.C., Cuneo Gilbert & LaDuca, LLP, and Slack Davis Sanger, LLP to serve as Interim Co-Lead Counsel to lead the class action litigation.
If there is compensation or other relief available through the class action lawsuit, the Court will order notice to be sent to the putative class members to inform them of their rights and potential recovery.
Some Jeep owners have also filed individual lawsuits over the hybrid battery issues involving these vehicles. If you owned or leased a 2022-2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe plug-in hybrid or 2020-2025 Jeep Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid, and wish to pursue an individual claim outside of the class action, contact the lawyers at Heygood Orr & Pearson by filling out our free claims form, located on the right side of this page.
Owners of Recalled Vehicles
Jeep and its parent company, Stellantis, recalled Jeep Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid and Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe plug-in hybrid models because of defects in the 400-volt lithium-ion battery packs. These batteries have been found in some cases to short-circuit internally, creating a risk of overheating and fire.
Individuals who owned or leased one of the recalled Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe or Wrangler 4xe vehicles may be entitled to compensation.
Although the recalled Grand Cherokee and Wrangler 4xe models have been linked to vehicle fires, drivers who owned or leased one of these vehicles do not need to have experienced a vehicle fire in order to file an individual claim.
