A 2022 Jeep Wrangler 4-door+ tipped over in the driver-side small overlap crash test in a repeat of a problem shown by an earlier model, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Structural modifications made by the Stellantis did not eliminate the problematic safety issue.
“Even partial rollovers are dangerous, as they increase the chances that an occupant may be completely or partially ejected from the vehicle. That’s especially relevant for the Wrangler, which has a roof and doors that can be removed and lacks side curtain airbags,” said IIHS.
