STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE:HINGE AND ATTACHMENTS
- The defect
- Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2024-2026 Jeep Wagoneer S vehicles. The liftgate hinge cover may not be properly clipped into position and may detach from the vehicle.
- What it can cause
- A detached hinge cover can become a road hazard for other vehicles, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealer will inspect, repair, or replace the hinge cover as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 1, 2026. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is 26D. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will become searchable on NHTSA.gov on March 19, 2026.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 11,767 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 80% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2024 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were 2 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Jeep vehicles have been recalled over the structure 8 times before this, most recently in September 2025 as 25V642000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 2 of the 3 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 76 complaints with NHTSA, 35 of them before this campaign was filed. 4 of those name the structure, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 5 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V262000 (electrical system), 26V059000 (exterior lighting), 25V575000 (structure), 25V574000 (power train).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) with NHTSA on March 12, 2026 as campaign 26V141000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
