Owner reports filed with NHTSA, as written (personal details removed). Complaints are not verified by NHTSA.

Steering · reported Nov 4, 2026
I was experiencing the same "death wobble" experience reported by other Jeep Gladiator owners. I brought the vehicle to the dealership out of concern about this safety issue and inability to control the vehicle as the "wobble" episode is occurring. The dealership charged me $200 diagnostic only to indicate that the same part affected and recalled in the TSN: 23-079-23 recall that only covers 2020 Gladiators. My vehicle is driven very little and only has about 40k miles. How could this part have failed already. The "death wobble" occurred well before the 40k mile mark but I had no idea what it…
Steering · reported Sep 20, 2026
Experiencing death wobble at over 50 mph. Very dangerous on a roadway where you are required to go over that speed. Brought to shop, explained steering dampener is leaking and driver side tie rod is loose causing vibration at higher rates of speed.
Suspension · at 35,000 miles · reported Sep 18, 2026
The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Gladiator. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle went into the death wobble. During the failure, the front end of the vehicle was shaking and vibrating severely, and the steering wheel was difficult to control. The four tires were replaced, but the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed, and it was determined that front drag links and steering dampeners needed to be replaced. The failure mileage was 35,000.
Fuel/Propulsion System · reported Sep 15, 2026
The DPF system has failed upon numerous occasions. This model is a 2022 they only made these diesels for 3 years in the gladiator and discontinued them I assume for reasons stated above. The issues is not resolved and continues to happen. It should have a recall and the government put these standards on these vehicles and should be responsible for removing the dpf system and deleting the problem it restricts the engine not allowing it to run smoothly.
Service Brakes · reported Sep 11, 2026
Emergency brake not working properly consistently, loosens, has been repaired, replaced, still fails, loosens. Have had 2 accidents related to this, leg was run over. Second time rolled into tree almost 12000 dollars in damage, issues just about since purchase, saw multiple dealers, issue continues
