What's wrong?
The instrument panel cross car beam in the 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S is a structural beam behind the dashboard. It helps support the instrument panel and the reinforcement brackets that are part of the vehicle's occupant protection structure in a crash.
On affected Wagoneer S vehicles, the instrument panel was built with the wrong cross car beam. The issue is an assembly problem, not a broken part from wear or age. Without the correct reinforcement brackets, the vehicle does not meet the occupant crash protection requirements that apply to this design.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner would not feel, hear, or see this issue during normal driving because the incorrect beam is hidden behind the instrument panel until the dealer inspects or replaces it.
