NHTSA // CRASH-TESTED
2024 Jeep Wagoneer L
Federal crash-test performance, recalls, and complaints, scored into one NHTSA Safety Index.
The Jeep Wagoneer L is a full-size, three-row SUV aimed squarely at large-family buyers who want serious passenger and cargo capacity without stepping into a pickup-based truck. Stretching the standard Wagoneer's wheelbase for a longer third row, this is Jeep's flagship people-mover, positioned against heavy competition from the Chevrolet Suburban, Ford Expedition Max, and Toyota Sequoia.
The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer L earns an NHTSA Safety Index of 88 out of 100, a strong result driven by its federal crash-test stars and its recall record. Both frontal and side crash protection reached the full 5 stars. It has 1 recall on record, reflected in the score.
- urban drivers exposed to side-impact risk
Reviewers generally regard the Wagoneer L as a premium, well-appointed full-size SUV that delivers a comfortable, composed ride and a genuinely upscale interior. Most praise its spaciousness and technology features, though some note that its size can make it feel unwieldy in tight settings. Fuel economy is a common point of criticism across professional assessments of the segment.
