The border patrol in Arizona mentioned there was a charge but no information has been received regarding court dates or anything. Is it a misdemeanor, felony or something worse ? No prison or jail time was served, but is it something that has to be scrubbed clean or otherwise ?

It is typically a federal charge and also a felony. Your record and various other factors can dramatically increase and decrease the seriousness. The fact that you are not currently in custody is good.
Good luck!

Talk to your local attorney.
In general, they do not need to arrest you or find you in the car, in order to charge you with a carjacking. However, whether they can prove it is another matter.
