Jeep Death Wobble Settlement?
Jeep To Offer Settlement On Wrangler, Gladiator “Death Wobble” Issue
Jeep is offering a settlement to owners of certain 2018-2020 Wrangler and 2020 Gladiator models that have experienced a problem known as the “Death Wobble.” This issue, characterized by severe shaking in the front end of the vehicle, has been a source of frustration and concern for Jeep owners for years.
Under the proposed settlement obtained by Detroit Free Press, Jeep is extending the warranty coverage for up to eight years or 90,000 miles to include “all parts and labor needed to replace a failed front suspension damper.” This is a significant increase from the standard limited warranty, which typically lasts three years or 36,000 miles.

Jeep Cherokee Leaving Australia As Right-Hand-Drive Production Ends
Jeep has announced that it will end production of the right-hand-drive Cherokee soon. The automaker didn’t provide a specific timeline for when this would happen for the aging model, but discontinuing production will remove the SUV from the Australian market. Sales of cars have fallen there in recent years.
A spokesperson for Jeep Australia told CarExpert.com that the move will allow Jeep to focus more on marketing and sales resources on “key volume models.” According to the publication, Jeep has fewer than 40 new Cherokees for sale left in the country.
Jeep 4xe Boogie?
Jeep 4xe Super Bowl commercial highlights the modern version of ‘Electric Boogie
Jeep’s “Electric Boogie” commercial follows the Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe in a variety of simulated off-road situations. Though fun, the soundtrack is the real star of the show. The song’s original artist, Marcia Griffiths, was joined by Grammy winner Shaggy, Jamila Falak, Amber Lee, and Moyann on the track. The modernized re-recording celebrates 40 years since Griffiths’ original track. Jeep said the song is available on streaming platforms today.
Though the commercial is making its debut at the Super Bowl, it’s intended for a global audience. Jeep sells vehicles in more than 100 countries and has acquired international rights to the new “Electric Boogie” for use when the ad airs worldwide. This year’s game will feature ads from automakers touting their electric street cred. General Motors teamed up with Will Farrell and Netflix on a clever EV ad, and Ram has a spot at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Even so, many automakers have bypassed the big game, as they look to save cash and get ahead of a potential economic downturn.
