New Wagoneer Series 3 Problems... Anyone else?

[Commando]

Fellow members - I ordered my GWS3 in April and it was built in July but stayed in JS1? status for months and is now in KZ status suppose to be delivered to my dealer this coming week. My concern is that it’s an early production model, and similar to yours, it may be plagued with multiple gremlins and problems. Plus, with a dealer network that is not at the advertised level, I’m tempted to cancel the order and place a new one. Here in my VIN 1C4SJVGJ7NS101761. Is yours close to mine which indicates an early production model.

This thread is scaring the crap out of me. I'm waiting for a GW S3 to come in this week to purchase. Is it too early?

What are the start/stop problems people are experiencing? Is this remote start? turning off at a stop light? something else? Thanks

The issue I have had has been with the battery not keeping a charge. So... the car runs great for about a week and then at some point I get into the car and it wont start. We just got it back from the dealer who told us they think they have resolved the issue. According to them a couple of the pins on the housing were bent causing a poor connection. I will keep this thread posted as to whether this really fixed the issue or not.

Our stop/start never worked from day 1 so we took it in about a week after owning it. They said they had to change some wiring to enable it. Now it works fine. Wish everything else worked. Other than the problems, we love the vehicle.

I just picked mine up today. Mine doesn’t start/stop. How do I enable or turn off? Am I missing something?
Thank you! Hoping I don’t have battery issues.

Yes definitely keep us updated. I just picked up GW series i today and I love it. But now I’m nervous reading all of these issues.

My husband and I purchased a Wagoneer Series 3 with Quadra trac 2 just 10 days ago. We love our Wagoneer, however it has already been back to the dealer for a battery charging issue, a chip that came on the front passenger screen, a rattle in the headliner, and a piece not completely installed in the rear seat entertainment system. The car was at the dealer for 5 days. We have had it back since Friday and we will have to take it back into the dealer again now because the oil pressure light is coming on and now there is a problem with the front left fog light flickering off and on. When my husband turned off the fog lights to avoid the flickering the right fog light started turning on when we turn the steering wheel to the right. We are feeling very frustrated at this point. We understand that this is a new launch and there's bound to be a few bumps in the road, but feeling overwhelmed right now and starting to worry what may be next. Anyone else having issues?

So I just bought a 2022 Wagoneer Series 3 and it’s being towed to the dealer so they can figure out why it won’t start. It was jumped but won’t when turned off it won’t start again. It’s brand new. In addition since getting it last week, the main uconnect screen seems glitchy. It’s hard to lower the seat heater temp and Apple CarPlay does not always work or load. It’s disappointing and concerning considering how much money the Wagoneer costs. I hope they figure out the issues and solve them quickly..

If this was one on the lot, maybe the Dealership hasn't done all the TSBs/software updates. Have you opened a case with Wagoneer Client Services in parallel with calling the Dealership? Might help as these are early/first year release vehicles and Stellantis has solve a LOT of the issues with the software updates. @WagoneerCxSvc has been very responsive on this forum as well, hope you get engaged with them as a monitor first, then should the dealer not be able to resolve the issues, as your advocate. Keep us posted!

I know it shouldn’t be like this, but if you use your thumb on the heated seat buttons it works a lot better. Not sure why that is, but give it a try.

My Ram 1500 Laramie's left fog light came on when turning left & the right fog lamp came on when turning right; this feature was to allow the driver to better see at night when turning. This feature seems to be included for the Wagoneer.

Fogs work the same on a Wagoneer.

I am dealing with a battery issue today. Hoping a new battery just fixes it. As for fog light. When you turn steerin wheel to left does the left fog light go on? I havent driven my grand wagoneer enough at night to see if its the case but in my 2019 ram 2500 my fog lights come on as i am turning a corner either left or right.

Well I hop this info helps everyone. We are on our 3rd 2022 Wagoneer series 3
The first one had suspension and battery issues when pulled out of the lot. That dealer just voided the deal and took the car back that night.
the next Wagoneer also started having battery issues 3 new batteries and finally a new motor generator (since they are a partial hybred) that solved the charging system issues but they still have no idea why the air suspension system will not work. So Jeep has purchased our 2nd back from us and we are on our 3rd Wagoneer (bought 1st one early December 2021) and fingers crossed so far all is perfect !! Our dealer (Findley in Wilsonville Oregon ) has been fantastic to work !!!! with but yes the loaners are crap used cars that not close to a Wagoneer
