Safety score
50/100
Average recall-severity risk Lower recall-severity risk than 53% of makes we track.

Jeep scores 50 out of 100 (grade C) for recall severity, which ranks it 24 of 52 makes and about average across brands. The score is the recall-weighted average of its models, so the brands with the most do-not-drive and critical-safety recalls sit at the bottom. How the score works.

In total, NHTSA lists 210 Jeep recall campaigns across 12 models for the 2010-2026 model years. The single largest affected 4,815,661 vehicles. The system recalled most often is the electrical system.

A high recall count usually tracks how many cars a brand sells and how long its models have been on the road, not how dangerous they are. The safety score below adjusts for that by weighing how serious and recent each recall is. The table further down breaks every Jeep model out so you can see which ones drive the count.
