Look — Jeep's tire-related story is well-documented in the NHTSA file, and it ain't pretty. 217 complaints across 34 year-model entries from 2005 to 2021. Not a small number. Complaints are spread across the lineup with no single year carrying the load. That tells you it's a platform pattern, not a fluke. 8 injury reports on the record — not a category to wave off. Repair cost runs around $150 on average — relatively low for an aggregated category. Across the 73 complaints reporting odometer mileage, the median failure lands at about 35,586 miles. Drive it across the conditions it will actually see — heat, cold, highway, stop-and-go. Pattern complaints surface under load, not in the dealer parking lot.

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Jeep Wrangler vehicles
A TPMS warning light that fails to notify the driver of a problem increases the risk of a crash.
Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chrysler Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan vehicles manufactured March 20, 2014, to April 22, 2014, and 2014 Jeep Wrangler vehicles manufactured March 21, 2014, to April 22, 2014
If the TPMS light illuminates because the sensors cannot be located, it could mask an actual low tire pressure condition, possibly resulting in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
