2024 JEEP WRANGLER 4XE — Complaint #1956613
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:PROPULSION SYSTEM:CHARGING:CABLE/CORD:ACCESSORY filed January 9, 2024
NHTSA complaint #1956613 (ODI reference 11564419) concerns a 2024 JEEP WRANGLER 4XE and was filed on January 9, 2024. The owner reports the failure occurred on January 9, 2024. The vehicle had 8,500 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Colorado based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electrical system:propulsion system:charging:cable/cord:accessory, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: yes, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. A complaint that flags a crash, fire, or fatality is escalated on NHTSA's internal review queue and factors more heavily into any Preliminary Evaluation decision on this make and model. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same JEEP WRANGLER 4XE cohort independently describe similar electrical system:propulsion system:charging:cable/cord:accessory failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2024 JEEP WRANGLER 4XE shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
