Yes, you will still need an adapter to install an aftermarket brake controller in your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee, which I do assume has the factory tow package. An OEM wiring adapter won't be universal, just for OEM brake controllers, so you'll need the adapter for the aftermarket controller.
For a '21 Grand Cherokee with the factory tow package, the most budget-friendly option for a brake controller is from Tekonsha:
- Tekonsha BRAKE-EVN Trailer Brake Controller # TK63VR
- Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers # 3014-P
This is a simple plug-and-play install and will get you an easy to use, effective brake controller at the best price.
