Used 2022 Jeep Wrangler 4xe SUV Consumer Reviews
Love It
I’ve had mostly BMWs and Audis over the years and cycled through a few TJs and a YJ as a weekend car. I’ve been driving my 4Xe as a daily for 6 weeks now and love it. It’s quiet, comfortable and generally fun to drive. Not a rocket but definitely quick enough to merge. It is loud on the highway and something to consider if you travel long distances. For me and my short commute, it’s perfect. I got 900 miles on my first tank of gas and average 32 MPG in hybrid. With everything going on in the world, it just makes me smile. Is it for everyone? No. Update, 7 months and 3,600 trouble free miles. I also took it offroading and loved the regen braking, quiet ride and torque. Sorry to those having trouble with theirs but still loving mine! Update, 17K miles, zero problem other than leaking shocks, replaced under warranty. I would suggest reading these reviews carefully. Many complaining of FORM simply do not understand the technology. It's not purely temperature related and something ALL PHEVs go through. If there were any reason not to buy a Jeep, I'd say it's less the vehicle and more the dealership experience. Mine is abysmal.

Will end up killing you
Bought this Jeep last August 2021and it has already died on us twice. First time it happened was December last year while my son was driving on the highway the engine just died-all electronics and mechanical- just completely dead, thankfully my son was able to get it on the shoulder and nothing happened to him. Then this past weekend it went dead again despite being charged over nght and being used everyday. The door wouldn't open with the key fob and the engine wouldn't start at all. I gave it a jumpstart and the hybrid battery was charged 99% and the car battery readout was 12.2. We drove it to the jeep dealership where we bought it and it's been there for days and they still can't figure out what's wrong. If I can just give this back I will, It's a nice toy but not worth the hassle and the danger.

Plug-in convertible — loads of fun!
I’ve had zero concerns with my Sahara 4xe after 13k miles. It has all the non-drivetrain DIY improvements you can make on all Wranglers. I keep the roof and doors off from May-October and I get about 27 miles of pure electricity on a charge. The engine sounds pretty rough the first 10k, but with the oil change it starts to sound a bit better. Much quieter than my ‘17 Sahara. For long trips it isn’t going to get even decent gas mileage, but for the daily driver you can really cut back on gas consumption. The OEM Bridgestone Duelers tires aren’t anything special and I would recommend getting a more rugged set if you are doing anything more than gravel. The concerns I had when I got it in August ‘22 were reports of the wrangler 4xe suddenly turning off while driving. This turned out to be a decent amount of cars with loose fuses. I checked mine and there were probably 10 or so loose (not good!) about a week after purchase. They’ve stayed in place since then. Another big concern that people would mention was a F.O.R.M. Notification. This meant that the car would not turn off the engine even when the battery was full. This primarily occurred when the gas would start to degrade (I’ve gone more than 5 weeks at a time without filling up even a 1/4 tank), or regular oil service was due and the oil was past prime. Getting the oil service would clear it and expending all but an 1/8 of a tank then refilling it would clear the other FORM notification.

2022 4xe Dangerous
I purchased a 2022 4xe July 2022 for my daughter and 8 months later the car died. Dealer replaced radio and battery and stated it was a glitch in the radio. Two days after I got the Jeep back it died again. Dealer again replaced radio and battery stating there was a short in the radio. Three weeks later the car died while driving on the road. Completely shut down! Thank goodness she was able to move to the shoulder. Towed to dealer again. Initiated Lemon law case. This is now a safety issue and dangerous on the road. Three times within a 5 week period at the dealer for repair. First time buying a Jeep and the last!! If I could rate it a "zero" I would.

It’s not perfect but it’s a great vehicle
I’ve had my 22’ 4XE Rubicon for 11 months and 1,100 miles. I still have 40% left until an oil change as I mostly drive in EV for errands/kids. When I drove it back from the dealer (500 miles) it was way too loud on the highway. So I put on a Hot Head Headliner and the sounds much more quiet and bearable. In the warm months I get around 25 miles of EV, but cold months I’d say it’s under 18. The Firecracker Red is a head-turner! The 1 touch skytop is a must and so convenient, especially with kids. The leather seats are comfy and I’m never sore. I bought aftermarket running boards so the kids and my spouse can get in easier. I disagree with Edmunds about the loose steering. It feels good to me and the ride isn’t as harsh as I expected. My fathers Stelvio TI Sport feels bumps more. I don’t personally like the transition from ev to hybrid. The Jeep revs/idols at around 1,700rpm for several minutes until it calms down. Jeep said it’s normal. I had some loose parts get tightened by the dealer under warranty. It feels slow in 2H, but if you put it in 4H it feels fast. All in all I really like my first Jeep. I wish it was fully electric. I just don’t care for the loud, small 4 banger sound. I use a MJJC foam cannon and SunJoe pressure washer to clean it a few times a week. That’s fun and waving to all the Jeep owners is fun the first few times.. lol. One quick update: This happened a day after my review, where 4WD, the battery, electronic stability control and ABS lights are on. The dealer said it’s still fine to drive and probably needs a new sensor. I’m driving it for 10 days like this until service can get me in. Wish me luck!
