What changed for the 2017 Jeep Wrangler
The 2017 Wrangler versus 2016: what's different, from the factory charts and spec sheets.
- New trim: Sport S.
- New body styles: 2-Door and 4-Door.
- New option packages: Cold Weather Group, LED Lighting Group, Max Tow Package, Mopar Premium Sound and Leather and 2 more.
- Packages no longer offered: Black Bear Appearance Package, Wrangler Rubicon Hard Rock Package, Willys Wheeler Package, Freedom V Package and 5 more.
Compared automatically from the manufacturer's trim feature charts, specification sheets, towing guides and the EPA's fuel-economy data for 2016 and 2017. The manufacturer reorganized this year's equipment chart, so features can't be matched line by line with last year's; trims, packages and powertrains above are still compared. Equipment varies by trim and market; confirm details on a specific vehicle.

Source: U.S. EPA and Department of Energy, fueleconomy.gov. MPG is miles per gallon (MPGe for electric operation). Plug-in hybrids list gasoline-only MPG with the electric rating underneath. Annual fuel cost assumes 15,000 miles a year at the EPA's fuel-price assumptions, so yours will differ. Range is total driving range on a full tank or charge.

Newest first. A campaign covers certain vehicles of this model year, not necessarily every one. To see which apply to a specific vehicle, and whether the fix has been done, enter its VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or ask a dealer; repairs are free of charge.
Seat belts: front: anchorageSeptember 26, 2019 · Campaign 19V680000
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2011-2018 Jeep Wrangler right hand drive vehicles. The driver's seat belt buckle mounting strap may fracture and separate from the seat frame.
Risk: A separated or severed seat belt buckle strap will result in an inoperable seat belt, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Fix: FCA US will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver's seat belt buckle, free of charge. Interim notices informing owners of the safety risk were mailed November 19, 2019. Owners will received a second letter and the recall began March 26, 2020. Owners may contact FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403.

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2017 Dodge Caravan and Jeep Wrangler vehicles. The brake switches on these vehicles may malfunction, keeping the brake lights illuminated and/or allowing the vehicle to be shifted out of the PARK position without the brake pedal being pushed.
Risk: Having the brake lamps continuously illuminated or being able to shift the vehicle out of PARK when the brake pedal is not pressed (and the ignition is in the RUN mode) can increase the risk of a crash.
Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake switches, free of charge. The recall began March 22, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is U09.
Campaign 18V098000 on NHTSA.govFuel system, gasoline: storage: tank assemblyNovember 23, 2016 · Campaign 16V849000
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2017 Jeep Wrangler vehicles manufactured November 1, 2016, to November 3, 2016. The affected vehicles may have a fuel tank that has a cracked or broken control valve, possibly resulting in a fuel leak in a rollover event, debris in the fuel tank and/or the potential of over fueling the vehicle.
Risk: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and Jeep dealers will inspect the fuel tank and replace fuel tank and sending unit, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began January 12, 2017. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is S90.

In certain crash conditions, the front impact sensor wiring may be pulled until it detaches before a signal can be received by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC).
Risk: If the ORC module does not receive a signal from the front impact sensor, both frontal air bags and the seat belt pretensioners will not deploy in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reroute the front impact sensor wiring and relocate the impact sensor branch, free of charge. The recall began on November 10, 2016. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is S76.

Great Lakes owner notes
What counts on a 2017 Jeep Wrangler from Michigan to Tennessee
Lake-effect squalls, roads soaked in brine, potholes that open with every thaw and long Appalachian grades: driving in the Great Lakes states asks a lot of tires, batteries and undersides. These notes take the 2017 Wrangler figures above and flag the ones that carry the most weight in Ohio.
Pothole season and the factory tire sizes
Smallest factory tire: P225/75R16. Freeze-thaw cycles break up asphalt across the Great Lakes states, and one jolt can knock the alignment out without leaving a mark on the wheel. If the steering wheel sits off-center or the Wrangler wanders after a pothole, get the alignment checked before the tire edges wear. A winter set on 16-inch wheels also keeps salt off the originals.
The oil grade on a January morning
The 2017 Jeep Wrangler fluids table lists SAE 5W-20, with 6 qt per change. Lake-effect winters are full of short, cold trips: to work, to school, to the store and home again before the engine reaches temperature. That pattern is tough on oil, so let the oil-change indicator set the interval and never stretch it.
Starting in single digits
Battery care in this schedule: inspect it and clean and tighten the terminals as required at each oil change, and the spec sheet rates it at 600 cold-cranking amps. A battery that bakes through a Nashville or Memphis summer ages faster, then gets found out by the first hard freeze. Have it load-tested in fall rather than waiting for a slow crank.
Drive systems for lake-effect snow
The 2017 lineup includes four-wheel drive. Power at both axles pays off when a band off Lake Erie buries the Snowbelt east of Cleveland, or on a steep, unplowed road out of a hollow in eastern Kentucky. It gets you moving; stopping on ice is still up to the tires.
Snow plowing is a listed condition
Snow plowing is named in this schedule as one of the uses that calls for earlier fluid service. Keeping a long driveway or a cottage lane open through a west Michigan winter is precisely the kind of work that line describes, so log plowing hours alongside towing.
Cold mornings and the tire-pressure light
Air pressure falls about 1 psi with each 10°F drop, so the swing from a gray, mild lake-effect afternoon to a clear, frigid morning can trip the warning light overnight. Set pressures cold, to the door-jamb placard. An underinflated tire is also easier to damage in a pothole, because the rim sits closer to the edge it hits.
Trailer duty in the schedule
The schedule lists automatic transmission fluid, manual transmission fluid, transfer case fluid and axle fluid service for frequent trailer towing, starting at 30,000 miles. Whether it is a fishing boat headed for the Ohio River or a pop-up camper bound for the Smokies, the extra heat of towing ages these fluids faster, most of all on long July climbs. The fluids table also specifies SAE 75W-140 synthetic gear lube for the rear axle in towing use.
Fuel reserve for storm closures
Fuel capacity: 18.6 to 22.5 gallons. Lake-effect whiteouts can shut stretches of I-94 in Michigan or I-90 through the Ohio Snowbelt for hours, so keep the tank from running low between November and March. If you do end up stranded, a running engine for heat needs a tailpipe clear of snow.
Each spec in these notes is pulled from the tables above. The commentary on salt, snow, potholes and grades is general guidance for the Great Lakes states; the owner's manual remains the authority.
2017 Jeep Wrangler questions

The components named most often are service brakes (78), engine (62), and power train (50). 19 complaints involved a crash and 21 complaints a fire. Complaints are reports from owners that NHTSA does not verify, so treat them as a signal to look into, not a finding.
Specifications come from the manufacturer's spec comparison and its media-site specification sheets; maintenance schedules, fluids and publications come from Mopar's owner site and owner's manuals. Equipment and ratings vary by configuration; check the owner's manual or a dealer for a specific vehicle.
