Got my 95B recall letter, thrilled to join the elite club of non-chargeable fire hazards. Seems like there’s no compensation involved (of course) but wondering if anyone has any recommendations on how I can use this to get out of the remaining 9 months on my lease? I would even be happy if they just waived the remaining payments for a different vehicle
I’ve been able to find some pretty decent numbers in Grand Cherokee 4xe’s, low $400’s for a 36/13 with $0 down. You’re 100% right on the misleading discounts being advertised, just have to find ones that break out “dealer discount” separately from incentives and stuff.

A bunch of the Facebook groups of owners are complaining and saying they want compensation or to get out of their car but there are 150k of owners in the same boat so Jeep won’t do anything special until it’s undrivable.
We basically have a regular Jeep until the issue is fixed in a time of fairly cheap gas. It’s annoying but I didn’t expect reliability with one of these.
If these were leasing better rolling into a new one could be worth considering. The value drop off is steep in year one and two, but almost all of these are settling close to end residual. But deals aren’t great.
I wonder what percentage of their new/for sale 4xe inventory is subject to this latest and greatest recall. Those are vehicles that can’t be sold.
Considering it only impacts jeeps made with battery packs manufactured before April of 23, pretty much anything on stop sale would need to be at least a year old.

My '22 goes back in March. With 38K on the odometer, I might have to put new front tires on before it goes back. I park it outside anyway and let the garage door close on the cord when we do need to charge it. It doesn’t get driven much because we are way over the miles and my son who primarily drives it is away at college.

I leased my '24 Rubicon X in May and it doesn’t have any recalls… for now.
I was tinkering with the ratefindr and saw this as well. CCAP doesnt get the $7500 but SFS does. hopefully this continues and is available when my lease ends haha
i was able to get one in michigan for low $400s 27/10 $0 DAS this month, most other dealers wouldnt play ball tho, willys 4xe wranglers were offered to me for $399m 36/10 $1000 DAS this month aswell.
I’m quite sure that it’s just a coincidence that the recall notice was issued at a time when Stellantis could be certain that there were very few unsold vehicles sitting on dealer lots that would be subject to the recall 
Who do you think they are, Toyota?

I’m 6 months away from my 22’ 4XE Rubicon lease (from a broker here) being up. Order took 4.5 months to come. Worth the wait. I’m hoping to lease another one cause I’ll owe like 42k at lease end. Just too much.

I mean you don’t have to buy it out.
My GC 4XE is 7 months out. Hoping the deals return to stack with loyalty lol

You’ll lease a new one because your buyout is high? You can just return it…
I still have like 9 months left. Can’t wait to give it back. I have like 1500 miles left from my allowance, gotta make it last! I was hoping they’d take it back early because of this whole recall thing
I did have an accident of someone braking way too quick for me with a traffic jam. I got it fixed through Jeep and insurance. I didn’t report it to the Chrysler Capital. Didn’t know it’s recommended until yesterday reading an article on that. Hope there are no issues once I return it. It’s immaculate today.
Brutal. Best of luck to the folks over at CCAP

Everyone freaking out about the recall and flooding carvana with purchase quote requests is a great way for an algorithmic pricing model to go “woah, supply is suddenly huge, drive those prices down!”
True. In my case, Carvana sent me the email price update a few days ago without me (re)inquiring.
It has to suck to have bought one of these at MSRP or +, as many people did a few years back.
