| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | Jeep pushed a software update on 4xe models on 10-10-2025. Today on 10-11-25 I pulled out of my driveway drove less than 100 feet and lost power. The check engine light came on vehicle said to switch to park and start the vehicle. This happens four times trying to turn around in a 2 block radius to get home. With the vehicle parked I turned it on kept my foot on the brake vehicle in drive and it continues to occur. Dealership said they had several 4xe towed in and multiple calls. Jeep customer service claims they are unaware of the issue. My 2024 Jeep is not drivable. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | While driving my 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe (VIN: [XXX] ), the vehicle suddenly lost all motive power without warning. The accelerator pedal became completely unresponsive, the “D” indicator on the gear selector began blinking, and the vehicle coasted to a stop in traffic. It would not restart for several minutes. This has occurred multiple times since purchase. The most concerning incident happened earlier this year while driving on a freeway with my wife and two young children, the vehicle abruptly shut down in active lanes of traffic, forcing us to coast to the shoulder while cars passed at highway speed. On [XXX] the same failure occurred four times within a ten-minute drive home. Each time, the Wrangler became undriveable and required several minutes before it would restart. The vehicle is currently at Simi Valley Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram for inspection (Service Order #[XXX]). The service advisor stated that multiple Wrangler 4xe vehicles were brought in for the same issue that morning. They also stated that the Wrangler 4xe has faced this issue for years and were not surprised by my story. The defect appears related to the hybrid powertrain control system or high-voltage electrical components. The problem has been reproduced and reported to Stellantis Customer Care as a serious safety concern. No warning lamps or messages appeared before the loss of power, only the blinking “D” indicator afterward. The vehicle and affected components are available for inspection upon request. This defect poses a severe risk of crash or injury due to sudden, total power loss while driving. Dealership confirmed multiple similar 4xe vehicles with the same stalling issue that day. This appears to be part of an ongoing pattern consistent with NHTSA investigation RQ24012 for loss of motive power in Jeep Wrangler 4xe models.

| Oct 2025 | STEERING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | On October 11, 2025, in the morning, shortly after installing a software update recommended by Jeep via the vehicle's infotainment screen panel, I experienced a sudden and complete loss of vehicle power while driving on the road at approximately 45 mph. This failure prevented me from controlling the vehicle, as the steering wheel locked up, causing the vehicle to veer off the road and into a ditch. I was able to restart the vehicle, and it initially appeared to operate normally. However, the same issue recurred within 60 seconds of restarting the engine, with another sudden loss of power and steering control. This defect nearly resulted in a serious collision, posing a significant risk of bodily injury to myself and other motorists on the road. No injuries occurred, but the incident could have been catastrophic at highway speeds. I believe this may be related to a software or electrical defect in the vehicle, potentially linked to the recent update. I request that NHTSA investigate this as a potential safety recall issue, as similar complaints of power loss and steering failures after software updates have been reported in Jeep models. Please contact me for additional details or documentation. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | I was slowing down for a stoplight vehicle shut off, came to an abrupt stop and shifted itself into Park. I then had to use the shifter knob to adjust it to Park to get the vehicle to turn on. This almost caused and rear end accident as I was not fully to the stop line area of for the light. The vehicle would then not go over 2500 RPMs and had to be limped off of the roadway. There were no warnings before this happened. All of it happened in a split second and my partner and I were jolted forward. I immediately reported this to the jeep dealership and they were very concerned about this. After this incident, my service engine light came on and stayed on later in the day it disappeared on its own without any clearing of any devices. I have attached pictures of what showed up as warning lights as soon as this incident happened. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Jeeps received an over the air update on 10/11/2025 and after the update experienced loss of power while driving with no warning . This could have caused an accident . I was driving down a road and there was no warning indication when my jeep suddenly just started to stall. I just had it inspected and drove without issue the day before . When I called the dealer to have it towed she said someone else had the same issue and had just called . When I searched online others with the same vehicle were also experiencing the same thing . This is a very dangerous experience that coukd have caused casualties and Jeep should be held accountable for it. Their software update was not ready for release and this type of failure is entirely preventable . | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | When I pulled my Jeep 4xe into my garage, I got an alert on my radio saying my Jeep needed to updated. I selected to go ahead and update it. The next time I drove my vehicle, I made it about a quarter mile. When I was crossing an intersection, all of the lights on my dash went crazy and my Jeep completely shut down. Luckily I could put it into neutral to coast through the busy intersection. It was very scary. I had to pull over, turn it off and back on again. It did start up and continued to drive. Now my check engine light is on. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
