I have the new ecodiesel!!! Yes this is an awesome vehicle but... After filing the vehicle up for the first time the issue was noticed while pulling the fuel nozzle from the vehicles fuel neck. The capless green fuel neck came separated from the vehicle. Once the car was turned back on the DEF service warning comes on the dash. This is with less than 300 miles!!! *tr

Common questions
How serious is the fuel system problem on the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee?
It's a documented issue but not catastrophic. 36 complaints have been filed. Repairs average $1,200 and most owners catch it before it causes a breakdown.
At what mileage does the fuel system typically fail?
Across the 16 complaints that reported odometer mileage, most fuel system failures cluster between 64,000 and 123,858 miles, with the median around 98,000. A quarter of owners report trouble before 64,000; a quarter make it past 123,858. Maintenance history matters more than the odometer alone — this is the reported failure window, not a guarantee.
What does it cost to fix?
Independent shops typically charge around $1,200 for fuel system repairs on this vehicle. Dealer pricing tends to run 20-40% higher. The exact figure depends on the specific failure mode, parts availability, and your local labor rates. If you're outside factory warranty, an extended service contract often covers this category.
Are there any recalls related to fuel system?
No active recalls currently cover fuel system issues on this vehicle. The complaints filed represent owner-reported failures that haven't risen to the level of a manufacturer-issued recall — but they're still worth knowing about before you buy or budget for repairs.
