| Oct 2025 | STEERING,POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | After applying an OTA (over the air) update from Jeep on 10/11/25 at approximately 1pm EST, the vehicle would drive for about 100 yards and then lose all power. Check engine light came on and a message saying to put in park. This happened when I pulled out of a parking lot and was lucky enough to have enough momentum to get to the side of the road. Restarted the Jeep, drove another 100 yards in the shoulder and it happened again. Was able to get into a parking lot and had to get the Jeep towed to the dealership. I am waiting to hear from the dealership as to the resolution. As of this writing (10/12/25 @ 5:30 pm EST, I have seen 100's of posts regarding the same issue from other Jeep owners and I have yet to see a formal notice from the manufacturer acknowledging the issue with an action plan. The complete lack of quality control from Jeep has put 1,000's of drivers in danger as the vehicle just shuts down without warning. I seriously hope no one is injured or killed due to the gross incompetence of this manufacturer. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ENGINE | I went for a short drive yesterday and my jeep stalled twice (once on my way to the store, and then again on the way home). It completely stopped working both times and I had to put it in Park and then back to Drive. I would get a warning message telling me to "Shift to P and then Shift to Gear". The check engine light is now on. I am afraid to drive it now. What if I am on the highway and it stalls? I am taking it to the dealership for inspection tomorrow, hopefully I can get there safely. I picked up a rental car to drive in the meantime. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | STEERING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | Vehicle completely lost power while driving nearly resulting in an accident. Engine cut off and loss of power occured including power steering. Vehicle stated to put car in park while Vehicle was still in motion. Vehicle restarted but then the same thing happened. This occured 4 more times. I was able to make it to the dealership near by. I had young children in the car at the time. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | The vehicle shuts itself off randomly after having installed an over the air update to the UConnect system. In a span of one hour my vehicle shut itself off without warning, while driving, eight times. This is apparently happening with several Wrangle 4Xe models nationwide. Per Jeep customer care, there are "hundreds of thousands of vehicles being affected" and for now owners are being instructed to take them to the dealership. Per the customer service rep, no communication is being sent out by Jeep to any customers or through local media as they are choosing to handle it internally. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I was driving down and my vehicle lost power. I was able to steer and brake but the gas wouldn’t work. I was able to pull off and restart the vehicle and it did it again with a short amount of time. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | Used 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4XE on 10/11/25 and stalled 8 times in 2 miles. had to come to complete stop put in park and restart . I circled back home and used my husbands car to run errand. I tried calling my Dealer and they were closed. My husband tried the Jeep the next day and engine light was on but jeep ran fine. I learned from a Jeep forum today that there was an update released on uconnect on Friday 10/10/25 and it affected lots of Jeep owners with the same symptoms . I did see the notification on Saturday and delayed it the 1st time and Jeep ran fine but the accepted it later and it happened after that. Thank God i was in my quiet neighborhood and returned the Jeep home safely that day. We will report this to our dealer on Monday when they open as this was scary and the engine light is still on. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | Vehicle suddenly shuts off while driving. Many other Wrangler owners (especially of 2024 models) are reporting same issue and saying it is due to recent Uconnect update. My issue also started after this update this past week. Has happened twice since the update on 10/10/2025. Very serious safety issue that can cause crashes from behind. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | My 2024 Jeep Rubicon 4xe has experienced three separate incidents of complete power loss following the October 10, 2025 Uconnect software update (version FCA-MY24.U33.43-PROD). In two cases, the failure occurred while crossing active intersections, where the vehicle abruptly lost acceleration, flashed gear indicators, and displayed a “Shift to Park and Press Brake + Start Button” message. The vehicle became unresponsive and required a lengthy restart. These incidents posed serious safety risks to myself, my young driver, and surrounding drivers. I’ve attempted resets and reviewed Jeeps online community, Jeep connect app, but no fix is available. Multiple owners are reporting identical failures online, suggesting a widespread and massive software fault. I urge NHTSA to investigate this issue and compel Jeep to issue a rollback or patch to restore safe operation immediately. I am also requesting NHTSA to legally require these vehicles to be disabled immediately until a robust fix is available to avert life threatening consequences. I cannot believe Jeep has not done this on their own!!! | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | While driving, Jeep stalled out/became unresponsive, D started flashing on gear shift panel and dashboard, check engine light came on and dashboard message said: "shift to P to start" "Press brake & Push button to start" While jeep was already ON and was driving. Very dangerous!! This happened 4x in 1 mile radius. Had to put in P, shut off and restart but kept happening. Luckily was able to maneuver/glide jeep to parking lot but this sudden loss of power is extremely dangerous. I could’ve been rear-ended or worse each time it happened. Per Jeep forums this occurred after a Uconnect update. Several Jeep Owners are having the same issue with no word from Jeep. This update was done on a Friday evening (10/10/25) of holiday weekend. No one is available in service department until Tuesday (10/14/25). According to JeepCares Forum… it was a telematics box module update. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE | Jeep pushed out an over-the-air update to UConnect on 10/10/25, which I installed. After installing the update, my car completely shut off in the middle of an intersection. I could have been killed. I restarted the cr, and it continued to do this every few minutes all the way home. I tried to call Jeep and they said they could not help me because the update came from Stellantis. It was well documented and numerous other folks seem to be impacted [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Was driving on highway at speed of 60mph then the vehicle loss motive and drifted with no power.

| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Pulled vehicle out of the garage. Stopped with foot on the brake. Let off the brake to drive and the check engine light came on along with a red light on the gauge cluster with a red wrench. Warning came on the screen saying put vehicle in park and press the start stop button. Vehicle turned back on and the screen said no hybrid power available. Drove down my driveway and complete loss of power. Screen again said put vehicle back in park and press start stop button. Again the vehicle started and I returned to my driveway and parked the vehicle. Check engine light remained on when vehicle was on. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | Coming out of our driveway, the Jeep randomly flashed D at us and told us to put the car in park to restart. We thought that was weird as it was, but it only got worse from there. Well over 30 minutes later, while driving northbound I35 in the left lane, we experienced full power failure. We had to make it across three lanes of traffic in the midst of a busy highway with 18-wheelers all around using the only energy left over from our 70mph drive. Once we were on the side of the highway, we were finally able to get the Jeep on and moving again. At this point, the check engine light is on. We were just trying to make it to the next city so we could make a plan, and everything was fine for about 2 more miles. We got onto a bridge and the power failed again. Now, even though we opted to stay in the right lane out of fear for our safety, we have nowhere to go, no shoulder, just guard rail and whatever was below, and still have traffic all around us going at speed. We took the access roads where we could, but the car continued to lose power at a faster rate. Finally, at the Jeep Dealership in Hillsboro, the service team plugged the jeep in and said a code was thrown but they would not look at it until Monday. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Vehicle lost power transfer while in Drive and dash instructed to press brake to shift into Park. Check Engine light came on.

This all happened after a UConnect update | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ENGINE | Jeep/Stellantis pushed an update to the Uconnect System/other electronic controls in our 24 Wrangler 4xe without warning or ability to adequately decline the update that ultimately downloaded into the vehicle. After the update vehicle stalls every 1 to 5 miles. After 30 seconds driver has no control of the vehicle. This presented a situation where we could have been involved in a major accident. Highly unsafe. Jeep apparently knows the issue and has done nothing to correct. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ENGINE | updated a new update OTA the vehicle on Friday Oct 09 Was driving the next day Saturday theb11th and the car stalled and the D on the shift was blinking and could not move the vehicle. I had to put in park and restart to continue I was stopped in the middle of the road and could have been hit from behind as someone was behind me. The check engine light also came one | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Once or twice per day vehicle brakes will lock up while accelerating from a stop. This usually occurs between 15 and 20 mph. It is a random occurrence. Also, after UConnect update, vehicle will lose power after driving for approximately 1 mile, requiring that the car be turned off and restarted. the car is drivable again for only another mile, then repeats the issue. Check engine light turns on. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES,ENGINE | My vehicle completely shut down while driving after a reported connect update issue on 10/10. I was driving down the highway on 10/12 and it completely lost power. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | Jeep pushed an OTA Software Upgrade on 10/10/2025. The following morning 10/11/2025, while operating the vehicle. The vehicle lost all propulsion and power steering. Check Engine Light Came on and a message “Shift to P to Start” message appeared on the console. Additionally, the traction control system, collision avoidance alarms appeared on the console. Fortunately I was able to navigate the vehicle to the shoulder of the road without getting hit. However, I fear had my newly permitted teenage driver been operating the vehicle the outcome would have been much worse. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | Vehicle received a UConnect update on 10/10/25. The next morning the vehicle was only able to drive 2-3 blocks before the engine lost power, check engine light turned on, and the board directed me to shift the car into park and start the car. I was able to restart the car and it did the exact same thing within 200-300 feet. I was able to get the car to the dealership so they can look into how to resolve. There are a lot of postings online with others experiencing the same thing (some losing power when they were driving down the highway). All appear to be related to the UConnect update. Don’t feel safe driving the car not knowing when it will lose power again. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | STEERING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | On 10/11/25 approximately 9pm my vehicle completed an OTA update initiated by the manufacturer. Upon completion of the update, I went for a drive. At approximately 30 mph, the vehicle suddenly shut off, shifted into neutral, and ceased to operate leaving me stranded in the middle of the road. The vehicle would not start, shift into neutral, or operate in any manner. Several warning instrument lights came on. After about 30 minutes, the vehicle started and continued to loose power several times before I could get it back home. We were lucky that we were not rear ended. There are hundreds of complaints on social media referring to the same situation for other Jeep 4xe vehicles after completing the OTA update. Stellantis has not issued any official statement regarding this. This is a situation that could result in serious injury or death to many as the vehicle suddenly loses all functionality with no warning. Check engine light is now on the dash. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | Software update on 10/10/25. In afternoon. Accepted update over our home wifi. [XXX] left house at [XXX] to go to Gunnison to visit our kids.

As I pulled into mailbox center the car shut off again. I restarted noted the check engine light and drove home. Called Perkins motors in colorado springs. Got an appointment to bring the car in at 1pm. Drove straight to the dealers service. They asked if I did a software update, which I confirmed. They said other 4xe owners had experienced the same issue. The checked in the car and we ran into someone else with the exact same issue in the waiting room.

I went to dinner, got back in my car an hour later and about 2minutes later while driving, my engine shut off and and the Press Break and Push Start came on. I had no power at all while making a turn through an intersection. I pulled over as much as I could, powered off the vehicle completely. Waited a minute and it started back up, but now the engine light was on. Was able to make it home (7miles) but was vey concerned about it shutting off again, at night while driving home. Dealer can’t get my vehicle in for a week! | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | ENGINE | I was stopped at a light the Jeep turned off, dash said put vehicle in Park, restart, then Drive. After I turned off the Jeep and restarted, the check engine light came on. No issues that day, but engine light was on. Day two-engine light still on after full charge. Opened gas cap and tightened. No change. I was driving on the freeway at 65mph, slowed down to take an exit ramp, the Jeep warning light came on, the Jeep shutoff, and the dash lights went off. Warning said but Jeep in Park, restart then Drive. This was very scary at that rate of speed. I continued driving slowly, got off the freeway and it happened again while driving 30mph on a two lane road. Same warning as before. It turned off, I coasted to the side, placed it in park, turned off and turned back on. I slowly made it home the last mile without incident. I called the dealer and made an appointment. I will not be driving this Jeep until it’s fixed. Too dangerous. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
