Before you buy a 2016 Grand Cherokee

  • Open investigation

    NHTSA has 2 open investigations covering this year, including EA23001 (engineering analysis into the fuel system, diesel since Mar 2023) and EA21002 (engineering analysis into the air bags since Sep 2021). An open investigation is a question NHTSA is asking, not a finding of a defect.

  • Where complaints cluster

    Complaints are spread out; the most-reported components are power train (76, of which 9 mention a crash, 2 a fire and 5 an injury), electrical system (49, of which 3 mention a crash, 1 a fire and 1 an injury) and engine (44, of which 2 mention a crash and 1 an injury). Across all 312 reports, 27 describe a crash, 7 a fire and 16 at least one injury.

  • Recent reports

    22 complaints (7% of the total) were filed in the last 12 months, a slow but steady flow of new reports, most often about the engine (5).

  • Fuel economy and running cost

    Its most efficient version (3-litre 6-cylinder) is rated 25 mpg combined, close to the median for the 2016 SUVs we cover (median 25 mpg across 40 other EPA listings); the thirstiest version is rated 15 mpg. At 15,000 miles a year and the national average diesel price of $6.28 (EIA, week of Oct 19, 2026), fuel would cost about $3,770 a year in the most efficient version and about $5,310 in the thirstiest (on premium gasoline at $5.31).

Engine and engine cooling · 23V411000 · 2023-06-08
An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2019 Ram 1500 and 2014-2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles equipped with 3.0L Diesel engines. The crankshaft position sensor tone wheel may delaminate, causing the engine to lose its ability to synchronize the fuel injector pulses and cam shaft timing, possibly resulting in an engine stall.

Consequence: An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will update the powertrain control module software to maintain vehicle propulsion, free of charge. Interim notification letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed August 3, 2023. Some owner notification letters were mailed October 31, 2023.

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and 2014-2019 Ram 1500 vehicles equipped with 3.0L diesel engines. A high pressure fuel pump (HPFP) failure may introduce internal debris into the fuel system, potentially resulting in fuel starvation.

Consequence: Fuel starvation may result in an unexpected loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will replace the HPFP, and inspect and replace, if necessary, additional fuel system components, free of charge. Interim notification letters informing owners of the safety risk were mailed July 21, 2022. Owner notification letters for were mailed for Jeep Grand Cherokee owners starting January 11, 2024.

Engine and engine cooling:exhaust system:emission control:gas recirculation valve (EGR valve) · 20V699000 · 2020-11-12
Combustion in the intake manifold can increase the risk of a fire.

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles equipped with the 3.0L EcoDiesel engines. The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler may crack and allow pre-heated vaporized coolant to enter the EGR system. This mixture may combust inside the intake manifold.

Consequence: Combustion in the intake manifold can increase the risk of a fire.

Remedy: FCA US LLC will notify owners, and dealers will replace the EGR cooler, free of charge. Dealers will also inspect and, as necessary, replace the intake manifold. Parts are not currently available. Owners were mailed an interim notification on December 21, 2021. A second notification will be mailed when parts are available, currently expected to be around March 11, 2021. The recall began March 11, 2021.

Engine and engine cooling:engine:diesel · 20V475000 · 2020-08-13
An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Ram 1500 and 2014-2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles equipped with 3.0L diesel engines. The crankshaft position sensor tone wheel may delaminate causing the engine to lose its ability to synchronize the fuel injector pulses and cam shaft timing, possibly resulting in an engine stall.

Consequence: An engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy: FCA US will notify owners, and dealers will update the powertrain control module software to maintain vehicle propulsion by reading the camshaft position signal in the event that the crankshaft position signal is lost, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on May 13, 2021.

Electrical system:wiring · 18V332000 · 2018-05-17
If the vehicle maintains its speed or accelerates despite attempts to deactivate the cruise control, there would be an increased risk of a crash.

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Dodge Journey, Charger and Durango, RAM 2500, 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis (more than 10,000lb), 4500 Cab Chassis and 5500 Cab Chassis, Jeep Cherokee and Grand Cherokee and Chrysler 300, 2014-2019 RAM 1500, 2015-2018 Dodge Challenger, 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, 2016-2018 RAM 3500 Cab Chassis (less than 10,000 lb), 2017-2018 Chrysler Pacifica and 2018 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. These vehicles are being recalled to address a defect that could prevent the cruise control system from disengaging. If, when using cruise control, there is a short circuit within the vehicle's wiring, the driver may not be able to shut off the cruise control either by depressing the brake pedal or manually turning the system off once it has been engaged, resulting in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.

Consequence: If the vehicle maintains its speed or accelerates despite attempts to deactivate the cruise control, there would be an increased risk of a crash.

Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the software, and perform a software flash on the engine or powertrain control module, free of charge. The recall began June 4, 2018. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed.

Investigations

EA23001 (EA) Open

Fuel system, diesel:delivery:fuel pump

Opened 2023-03-17

NHTSA summary

The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened PE21-021 on October 14, 2021, to investigate incidents alleging a stall/loss of motive power as a result of high-pressure fuel pump failures in certain model year (MY) 2019-2020 Ram 2500, 3500, 4500, and 5500 heavy duty trucks equipped with 6.7L Cummins turbodiesel engines. During the investigation, ODI sought to determine if the related defect allegation was limited in scope to the recalled population. After review of information request response materials from both FCA and BMW, NHTSA determined that sufficient information to identify a compre…

EA21002 (EA) Open

Air bags:frontal:driver side:inflator module, air bags:frontal:passenger side:inflator module

Opened 2021-09-17

NHTSA summary

From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.pdf.…
