The power steering quit working and the service lane departure light came on. The 4 wheel drive will sometimes come on for no reason.

At two thousand miles the power steering went dead. Limped it home as I was told it would be difficult to drive but not unmanageable. Once I drove 35 miles home the dealership said bring it in and we can get you a loaner. On driving to the dealership the power steering turned on for half a second. Luckily wasn’t applying a ton of force to turn the wheel and it just made me swerve half way in the ditch. Had I been going fast we would of been upside down in the ditch or worse.

Power steering went out while moving down my driveway. Went out & was then unable to move the car forwards or backwards or turn wheels.

Driving my vehicle home it was hard to turn and back wheels were locked out and not turning. After turning on and off vehicle serv 4wd came on and manual said to get it in for service. Also, uconnect and heat seaters stopped working. After having it towed at 2&1/2 mo old into dealerships service dept, was told by Wagoneer client services that this wheels lock out is a common issue they are having and requires system updates, rear diff fluid drain and replace, and they will be doing a cam sensor replacement while its in for a known issue with that(also not a recall), and the uconnect and seat heaters intermittently not working they don't have an eta yet for. The wheels locking out and not working with kids in the car is super scary. And if its a known issue they need to be doing a recall before someone gets into a serious accident. Not ok.

The first instance I was pulling out of the driveway. When I got to the end I tried to turn my steering wheel and it was completely locked. The alert started going off to service the lane assiatiance. I couldn’t move the tires at all. I turned the car off and re started it multiple times to try to get it to unlock. After about 5 times it unlocked but still said to service the lance assistance. Called dealership they made an appointment 2-3 weeks out to look at it. Two weeks later driving at 35-40mph alert goes off that brake system needs to be serviced the car kicked on the parking break within seconds and steering wheel locked. I had two children in the car. We feared for our lives. Once pulled over the car was kicked into 4wd low on top of all the other things. Called dealership and they sent me to voicemail. Didn’t return call for hours. After restarting the car multiple times I was able to drive it to the dealership. I could only imagine how bad this could have ended up. Still no word on what exactly happened. I’m currently in a loaner.
