2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee
This year drew an ordinary 239 complaints for a Jeep Grand Cherokee — the model's median is 473. What they were about is the unusual part: 12.1% of them mention engine however, against 4.4% across the other years of this generation.
Generation 3 of the Jeep Grand Cherokee, which began in 2022. Everything below compares this year against the others in that generation, not against a different car wearing the same name.

What the complaints were about

Words owners used for the same problem are counted together, so a fault written four different ways is measured once. Grouped by which complaints they appear in, not by a list anyone wrote in advance.

How this was worked out
Every year of the Jeep Grand Cherokee was compared against its own history rather than against other cars, which removes popularity and age from the answer — a common car draws more complaints at equal reliability, and an older one has had longer to accumulate them. A year is flagged when it drew at least 2.5× this model's median and at least 50 complaints.
This is a fault record, not a review. Nobody files a federal complaint to say the car was fine, so it shows what tends to go wrong — not whether owners liked it, and not whether it is a good car.
