2022 JEEP GRAND WAGONEER — Complaint #2161096
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC) filed December 29, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2161096 (ODI reference 11707483) concerns a 2022 JEEP GRAND WAGONEER and was filed on December 29, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 8, 2025. The vehicle had 61,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Tennessee based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electronic stability control (esc), 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: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. 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 GRAND WAGONEER cohort independently describe similar electronic stability control (esc) 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 2022 JEEP GRAND WAGONEER shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
