Sudden stop entrance to an exit ramp. The engine stalled and started leaking the fluid caused some and flames - fire department had to be called. . Had to replace the engine for approx. $6600 we are still waiting on parts for the seat belts this has been over a year with Jeep. The parts are backordered.

Axle on left side of Jeep was broke -took Jeep to have serviced for oil and tire rotation. Service person found that the axel was broke. Cost $1500 service man stated the axel was like a straw.

The passenger safety belt latch comes undone for no reason. This happens frequently. We always check to make sure it is properly fastened with the clicking sound. While driving, the buckle comes unlatched causing a safety issue. I have taken my Jeep to the Jeep dealer and they stated there are no recalls on this particular id and that both safety belt systems will have to be replaced for $700. This is a safety hazard due to a defective safety belt system.

Have had vehicle since 2018. For 2 years, I have had 3 cylinder misfires (with the last one about to happen at any moment) and my vehicle has stalled while driving (once on the freeway) about 8 times. I had to pull over each time to a complete stop. The vehicle stating "vehicle cannot change gears until stopped. " once I turned off the engine, it takes about five minutes to restart the engine. The cylinder misfires always begin with aggressive jerking while vehicle is in motion. Lasting a few months, leading to aggressive shaking once misfired. On occasion, while vehicle is stopped, seat belt will also not buckle and in the last two years seat belt has also come unbuckled twice while vehicle is in motion.

My car keeps ringing seat belt alert even when seatbelts are on. The panel lights up and says service emergency break and air bags. Also at times I get alert saying fob key is not in vehicle at same time I am driving down the road. I have to drive to NY from FL and back again and am afraid to drive.
