2023 Jeep Wrangler crash-test ratings
The frontal and rollover ratings exist for this Wrangler, but NHTSA published no side or pole result, and without them there is no overall score.
The 2023 Jeep Wrangler was rated under NHTSA's program before model year 2011, which gave no overall score: 4 stars for the driver, 4 for the front passenger in the frontal test, 3 for rollover resistance.
Rollover is the lowest result on file, below a frontal score that driver and passenger share. With no side rating at all, the record is silent on side impacts, and the hardware on the car itself is what you can check.
Recalls, complaints and investigations
NHTSA keeps these alongside the crash-test results for the 2023 Jeep Wrangler SUV 4WD. They answer a different question: not how the vehicle was built to perform in a crash, but what owners and the agency have reported since.
A recall campaign covers a range of vehicles; whether the repair was done on a particular car is a per-VIN question. Check open recalls by VIN.
What NHTSA did — and did not — test
A star rating is only as complete as the tests behind it. This is which of NHTSA's four crash tests the 2023 Jeep Wrangler actually went through.
No. NHTSA published no result for the side barrier test, the side pole test on this version. "Not rated" means the test was not run or not published — not that the vehicle failed it.

Salvage and rebuilt brands, reported accidents and odometer records follow the VIN.
Inspecting a used 2023 Wrangler
The ratings describe the Wrangler as it left the factory. A car that has been in a serious crash, rebuilt, or had its airbags replaced is no longer the car NHTSA tested.
Rollover is the weak rating, and NHTSA rated the vehicle as built, so note anything that changes its stance: a lift kit, oversized tyres or wheel spacers. Check the windshield frame and sport bar mounts for bends, fresh paint or disturbed seam sealer, and look for uneven tyre wear or leaking shocks.
With no side result on record, confirm the side protection is physically there. The airbag warning lamp should light at start-up and then go out, the side airbag tags on the front seats should be present and undisturbed, and because the doors on this model come off, check that each door's hinges and wiring connector are properly seated.
Forward collision warning was optional and lane departure warning was not offered. The window sticker or build sheet tells you whether this example has the collision warning; if it does, the dash should show no fault message for it.
How NHTSA's current ratings work
NHTSA announced new NCAP crash tests and rating criteria in July 2008, including a new overall rating that combines the frontal, side and rollover results. It then postponed the change by a year: the new criteria apply to vehicles tested beginning with model year 2011, not 2010 as first announced.
In NHTSA's own words, its rollover resistance ratings “estimate the risk of rollover if a vehicle is involved in a single-vehicle crash.”
One limit applies to every vehicle here. NHTSA notes that the frontal crash rating “depends on vehicle mass, and cannot be compared across vehicle weight classes” — a full-size truck's frontal stars and a compact car's are not the same measure.

Five stars at the factory. What about since?
A crash rating can’t see a salvage title, a rebuilt frame or a replaced airbag. The VIN record can.
