2024 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE TRAILHAWK 4XE

This 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee is listed with a salvage title, with hail identified by the auction as the primary damage. However, Stage 1’s photo-based assessment states that the visible evidence does not support the unverified hail claim: the hood, roof, and rear liftgate/deck surface appear largely smooth, without the dense pattern of shallow dents typically expected from hail. The visible damage is instead concentrated in the glass. The rear liftgate window glass is missing, leaving the window aperture open. The front windshield has extensive branching cracks across the upper and central areas. Both conditions require replacement, and the open liftgate aperture may have allowed exposure to the vehicle interior. The provided findings do not establish whether there is any additional structural, mechanical, electrical, or interior damage, so a comprehensive physical inspection is recommended. According to the VIN decode, this is a Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe plug-in hybrid SUV with four-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, and a listed output of 375 horsepower. It was manufactured by FCA US LLC at the Mack Assembly plant in Detroit, Michigan. Official NHTSA recall records provided for this 2024 Grand Cherokee include recalls involving the windshield defrosting and defogging system, high-beam operation, a steering knuckle, the front bumper energy-absorbing foam, the instrument cluster speedometer display, front side-airbag connectors, radiator crossmember bolts, the rearview camera system, second-row head restraints, the propulsion system, and the high-voltage traction battery. A further recall concerns possible delayed side-airbag deployment, and another concerns the transmission gear-position indicator. Recall repairs are generally provided free of charge, but completion should be verified by VIN with an authorized Jeep dealer. In particular, the high-voltage battery recall requires attention before charging or normal use if the vehicle has not received the specified remedy; the supplied recall notice advises parking the vehicle outdoors and not charging it until the remedy is completed.
