Is Jeep Bringing Back the Trackhawk? Rumors and Recalls!

**Jeep Talk Show: Grand Cherokee Airbag Recall, Self-Driving Jeeps, V8 Comeback Rumors & More!** In this episode, Tony and Josh dive into the latest Jeep news and rumors. We break down the massive new Grand Cherokee WL airbag recall (over 400,000 units), discuss the broader airbag industry issues, and talk about off-road implications and disabling airbags on the trail. We also explore Stellantis' self-driving ambitions with the STLA AutoDrive platform, compare it to Tesla Robotaxis and Waymo, and debate the future of autonomous off-roading in Jeeps. Plus, exciting rumors about the possible return of high-performance V8s — Hellcat, SRT, and Trackhawk models in the Grand Cherokee (and maybe even the Cherokee) — and why an inline-6 (Hurricane) in the Wrangler makes total sense. Josh teases his new "FUU" rant segment, and we wrap with plenty of Jeep talk, laughs, and real talk about what Jeepers actually want. **Topics:** - Grand Cherokee airbag recall & safety - Self-driving tech & off-road autonomy challenges - V8 revival rumors (Trackhawk, Hellcat, SRT) - Inline-6 Hurricane engine possibilities in Wrangler - Pay-to-play features & future of Jeep tech 00:00 Zoom Background Mishaps 01:02 Grand Cherokee Airbag Recall 07:25 Topic Shift and Wrap-up 07:46 Research on Self-Driving Jeeps 11:46 Off‑Road Autonomy Challenges 14:11 Stellantis AutoDrive Status 15:28 Cost of Advanced Features 16:22 Join the Jeep Discord 16:37 Pay‑To‑Play Feature Model 17:10 Tip Screen Meme 17:24 Pay‑To‑Play Services Discussion 18:35 Autonomous Travel Stress Relief 19:28 Self‑Driving Failure Stories 20:16 Driver Confusion with Autonomy 20:27 Waymo Issues and Powertrain Rumors 26:42 Show Outro and Teasers 34:08 Host Reflections and New Segment 35:40 Nicky G's Closing Banter Subscribe for more Jeep news, interviews, trail talk, and builds!
