THE MOTORCALIBER REVIEW
MotorCaliber editorial ◆ Reviewed against NHTSA data ◆ 2026-10-01

The Jeep Wagoneer S, a fully electric midsize SUV, has not yet been rated by NHTSA. As a new entry in a competitive segment, its safety performance remains unquantified by federal crash testing. The Wagoneer S is positioned as a premium, technology-forward vehicle. Until official data is released, its safety credentials cannot be assessed.

The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S launches without independent crash-test validation from NHTSA. No star ratings are available, leaving consumers without this standard measure of safety performance. This absence is a notable omission for a vehicle in this segment. The Wagoneer S has accumulated 11 recalls across its 2024 and 2025 model years. This volume, for a vehicle in its initial production phase, indicates a range of early-production issues. Prospective buyers should confirm all outstanding recalls have been addressed before purchase or delivery. Owner complaints total 65, with 2 crash-related allegations reported. There are no reported fires, injuries, or deaths. These complaint figures remain unverified. The Wagoneer S enters the market with a significant recall record and no published federal crash-test data.

WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally find the Wagoneer S to be a visually striking and well-appointed electric SUV, praising its interior materials, available technology features, and the strong acceleration typical of its electric powertrain. Driving dynamics are described as composed and comfortable for the segment. Some reviewers note that the vehicle is still early in its production life and that overall refinement continues to develop.

WHAT TO KNOW
  • The Wagoneer S has not been crash-tested by NHTSA for any model year MotorCaliber covers, so no star ratings exist to guide your safety comparison against competitors.
  • Eleven recalls have been issued across the 2024 and 2025 model years alone. Before buying or taking delivery, confirm every open recall on the specific VIN has been completed using NHTSA's free recall lookup tool.
  • Owner complaints total 65, including 2 crash-related allegations. These are unverified reports, but reviewing them on NHTSA's complaint database can surface patterns worth discussing with your dealer.
  • As an all-new electric platform still in its early production phase, the Wagoneer S carries the inherent uncertainty of a first-generation vehicle. Monitoring recall and complaint trends over the next model year is advisable before committing to a purchase.

Most-recalled year on record: 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S with 6 recalls.
