The Jeep Grand Cherokee has one of the more refined interiors in the Jeep lineup, but that doesn’t mean mounting a phone is always obvious. Depending on the generation of your vehicle, the dashboard layout and available mounting real estate can vary quite a bit.
Grand Cherokee owners typically use their phones for navigation, trail mapping, music streaming, and hands-free calls. Having the device in a stable, visible location makes all of that easier and keeps attention where it belongs: on the road.
Drivers familiar with other Jeep models like the Jeep Wrangler or Jeep Renegade will notice the Grand Cherokee interior is more conventional, which keeps the mounting process consistent across most trim levels.
In this guide we cover the best Jeep Grand Cherokee phone mounts. Our recommendations fit correctly, hold securely, and look good doing it, including several custom-fit options built specifically for Grand Cherokee interiors.

Grand Cherokee Generations: What You Need to Know
The Grand Cherokee has gone through two distinct interior layouts in the past fifteen years, and knowing which one you have determines the best mounting approach.
The WK2 generation (2011–2021) features a traditional center stack with the Uconnect display flanked by vertical air vents. The console area on either side of the infotainment system includes factory screws that custom-fit mounts are designed to use directly. This layout also provides usable windshield space slightly to the right of the steering wheel.
The WL generation (2021+, including the Grand Cherokee L) introduced a larger infotainment screen and a more horizontally oriented dashboard. There’s less flat dash space on the WL, which pushes most drivers toward vent or custom console mounts. The good news is that Course Motorsports makes a direct-fit bracket for this generation as well, and Autorder’s console organizer is purpose-built for the WL dash tray.
Which generation do I have?
If your Grand Cherokee was built between 2011 and 2021 with the older Uconnect system, you have a WK2. If you’re driving a 2022 or newer model, or a Grand Cherokee L from 2021 onward, you have the WL platform. The custom-fit mounts in this guide are grouped by platform.
Best Locations for Jeep Grand Cherokee Phone Mounts
Center Console (Custom Bracket)
The factory screws on either side of the Uconnect display are designed to be used by direct-fit mounts. This mounting position keeps the phone low and centered, within easy reach without blocking any part of the windshield. It’s the cleanest-looking option and the most stable on rough terrain. Course Motorsports, Offroam, and Autorder all use this location.
Air Vents
The Grand Cherokee’s rectangular vents are strong enough to support a vent mount without flex or wobble. Magnetic mounts work especially well here since the phone can be snapped on and pulled off with one hand. The LISEN MagSafe mount is built for exactly this use case.
Cup Holder
Cup holder mounts are an option for drivers who don’t want anything attached to the dash, vent, or glass. The WeatherTech CupFone expands to fit securely inside the center console cup holder and positions the phone at a usable height without any installation required.
Course Motorsports Direct Fit Mount — Jeep Grand Cherokee WK2 (2011–2022)
If you drive a Grand Cherokee from the WK2 generation, this is the mount to get. Course Motorsports engineers each bracket for a specific vehicle, and the WK2 Grand Cherokee version attaches using existing factory screws beside the radio, no drilling, no adhesive, nothing that damages the interior.
The bracket is CNC-machined and powder-coated, with an anodized pivot ball that lets you adjust the phone’s angle after installation. Mounting and dismounting takes less than five minutes, and the result looks close enough to factory that most passengers won’t notice it wasn’t there from the start. The magnetic head is MagSafe-compatible and includes a steel adhesive pad for non-MagSafe devices.
It can be installed on the left side, right side, or both sides of the console depending on your preference. The WK2 mount fits Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee Limited models built between 2011 and 2022. It does not fit the 2021+ WL platform or Grand Cherokee L models.
Compatibility note: This WK2 mount is not compatible with 2021+ Grand Cherokee L, Summit L, or any WL-platform Grand Cherokee. If you own one of those, scroll down to the WL version.

Course Motorsports Direct Fit Mount — Jeep Grand Cherokee WL (2021+)
For drivers with the newer WL-generation Grand Cherokee or Grand Cherokee L, Course Motorsports makes a dedicated bracket for that platform as well. Like the WK2 version, it uses factory hardware for a no-drill installation that integrates cleanly with the interior.
The construction is the same: CNC-cut powder-coated bracket, machined pivot ball, and a MagSafe-compatible magnetic head with a steel ring included for non-MagSafe phones. Installation takes under five minutes and the mount can be removed without leaving any trace behind.
The WL platform’s larger infotainment screen means there’s even less usable flat dash space than on the WK2, which makes the custom console bracket position more valuable. Having the phone mounted low and centered, rather than high on the windshield, works much better with the WL’s wider, more horizontal layout.

Offroam Direct-Fit Spring Mount — Jeep Grand Cherokee WK2 (2014–2022)
For WK2 owners who want a console mount without the fixed cradle geometry of a bracket-and-magnet system, the Offroam Direct-Fit Spring Mount is a strong universal alternative. It installs to existing dashboard features with no drilling, adhesives, or disassembly, and it keeps the phone clear of vents, controls, and your line of sight.
The holder itself is spring-loaded with precision-tuned tension, so it grips any modern phone in a case, in portrait or landscape orientation, with one hand. The whole unit is CNC-machined from anodized aluminum rather than plastic, and the 360-degree articulating arm gives you full control over the final viewing angle. It fits phones up to 3.8 inches wide and 0.67 inches thick, including larger phones in thicker cases.
Because it’s a spring clamp rather than a magnetic system, it’s a solid pick for drivers who’d rather not deal with MagSafe cases or metal rings.

Autorder Console Organizer Mount — Jeep Grand Cherokee WL and Grand Cherokee L (2021–2025)
The Autorder Console Organizer Mount takes a different approach than the bracket-style options above: it’s a dash insert tray with a built-in phone stand, shaped specifically to match the WL-generation console layout. It drops directly into place with no drilling and no tools.
The tray is molded from durable ABS with a rubber liner that keeps loose items and the phone itself from sliding or rattling on rough roads, and the smooth, contoured edges give it a factory-installed look rather than an aftermarket add-on. Since it’s a tray insert rather than a fixed mount, it can be pulled out and rinsed off when it gets dirty.
This is the pick for WL and Grand Cherokee L owners who want a phone holder that also adds a bit of organized storage, instead of a dedicated bracket mount.

LISEN MagSafe Vent Mount
For iPhone 12 and newer owners who want a magnetic vent mount without the cost or installation time of a custom bracket, the LISEN MagSafe vent mount is the best universal option for the Grand Cherokee’s rectangular vents.
The mount uses a steel hook clip to attach to the vent blade without putting pressure on the fins. The internal magnets are strong enough to hold an iPhone in a MagSafe case securely during highway driving, and the extended arm positions the phone away from the vent itself so airflow isn’t blocked. A 360-degree swivel ball allows full angle adjustment without tools.
Non-MagSafe phones can still use this mount with the included metal ring, which adheres to the back of any device and provides the magnetic contact surface.

WeatherTech CupFone
The WeatherTech CupFone is the right pick for drivers who don’t want anything touching the dash, windshield, or vents. The adjustable base expands to grip the inside of the center console cup holder, and the cradle arm positions the phone at a workable height for glancing at navigation or accepting calls.
It’s easy to move between vehicles and requires no installation at all. The CupFone is also one of the sturdier cup holder mounts on the market because of its metal construction and rubberized grip surfaces, which keeps the phone from vibrating loose on uneven road surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which phone mount works with both the Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L?
The Course Motorsports WL mount (B0DCL4Z8R4) and the Autorder console organizer both fit the 2021+ Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L. The LISEN vent mount is universal and works across all generations.
Do I need to drill to install the Course Motorsports mount?
No. Both Course Motorsports mounts use existing factory screws in the console area. No drilling, no adhesive pads, and no disassembly of the interior is required. Installation typically takes under five minutes.
Will a vent mount work on the newer WL Grand Cherokee?
Yes. The WL generation retains rectangular vents that are compatible with standard vent clip mounts. The LISEN MagSafe mount clips to the vent blade without putting stress on the fins and works on both generations.
Do I need MagSafe to use the Course Motorsports mount?
No. Both Course Motorsports mounts include a steel adhesive ring that attaches to the back of any phone and provides the magnetic contact surface. MagSafe-enabled iPhones attach directly without the ring.
Can the LISEN mount charge my phone?
The B09R1G19K5 listed here is a mount-only version and does not support wireless charging. LISEN does sell a separate 15W MagSafe wireless charging vent mount if you want a charging solution in the same form factor.
Does the Autorder organizer fit any phone size?
The stand is sized for standard modern phones with a case. If you’re running an oversized phone in a bulky case, the Offroam spring mount or a bracket-style option will give you a more adjustable, secure hold.
