| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,UNKNOWN OR OTHER | On 10/10/2025 My Jeep Wrangler prompted me to update the Uconnect box. After the update completed, my vehicle lost power at highway speed and started to shift to park. I had to make dangerous maneuvers, pull into the median, and attempt to restart the vehicle. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | The vehicle lost significant power while driving. I was only able to go 30mph, then a message told me to restart the vehicle with the brake pressed and start button. Then after it restarted I drove and it would only go 11 mph. Research online has indicated numerous jeep wrangler owners having this issue after applying an over the air update. The vehicle slowed down rapidly, this was very dangerous and put my family at risk. Since there was no brake lights indicated a slow down, vehicles behind me had to abruptly slow down. This could have cause an accident. The check engine light came on and has stayed on. This happened on 11 October 25, which is a Saturday, the dealerships closed by the time I was able to get address this issue due to family commitments. The dealerships are also not open on Sunday. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Oct 2025 | POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Jeep performed over the air update to the telematics box module. After update the vehicle, while in drive and running, driving on a public road way, set off a dash message to “place car in park to start”. Then suddenly can to a very violent stop in traffic. This could have cause an accident or loss of life. Vehicle is at jeep dealer waiting on fix. Thousands of 4xE hybrid jeeps are effected. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| 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 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE | After an update on 10/10/2025 when arriving home, the next morning 10/11/2025 while driving the check engine light came on and I lost all power less than a mile from home. I turned off the jeep, turned it back on and proceeded to try and drive to the next drive way to turn around and go home. In under a half mile, I lost power again (at 55mph). Got it restarted and turned into the drive way to turn around. When turning left out of the driveway, I lost power a third time and my jeep would not restart. I was across two lanes of traffic and we needed to push the jeep back into the driveway, but the auto brake kept engaging. Had Jeep towed to a dealership. | 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 | 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 | 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,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 | 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 |
| Oct 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE | I was driving on the highway with my son and the jeep completely lost power at 65mph. The gas would not work and the dash was telling me to put the car in park and press the start button. I had to move to the right lane and coast to the side of the highway and restart the Jeep. This continued to happen 2 more times. This is very unsafe and I will not drive this car. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

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.
