2 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/31/2026

I was driving on highway and the Jeep shutdown completely with zero warning and locked up. No lights came on, no warnings in the app, zero indications. I almost hit a car head on trying to get it off the road and into parking area which it didn't make. The Jeep turned completely off, power steering locked up, and it was like a light switch had been flipped with no prior warnings. Luckily, this happened at relatively lower speeds, but it shouldn't have happened at all. 2 weeks ago it was released from Jeep dealership service department due to this issue happening before with my husband driving but it went off while stopped at a red light. This time the vehicle was moving when it went out. They replaced both batteries and fuse array / fuse box. They stated the batteries were bad. Obviously it is not the batteries or fuse arrays since both are only 2 weeks old. Therefore there is something serious going on with this vehicle and no vehicle with less than 38,000 should have major mechanical oe electrical failure. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle in current state and if this continues without Jeep being held responsible for doing something about it someone is going to get killed. It shouldn't take a death before the company is held responsible.

3 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/28/2026

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Wrangler. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 25v710000 (electrical system); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The local dealer was contacted, and it was confirmed that the part was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue.

4 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/27/2026

Since the 68c recall software update was performed on my Jeep, the vehicle has experienced recurring, unexpected losses of motive power while driving in electric mode. During these events, pressing the accelerator yields no response. Moments later, an "electric mode unavailable" warning displays, followed by the gasoline engine starting and causing the vehicle to surge forward. This phenomenon occurs unpredictably—typically when the hybrid battery charge drops below 45–50%—and has occurred twice in the past week alone, nearly causing a rear-end collision each time. I previously submitted the vehicle to the dealership for repair, but no corrective action was taken. The dealership advised that the vehicle operates normally according to post-recall software parameters designed to prevent battery overheating. However, forcing an unprompted loss of motive power in active traffic creates a critical safety hazard.

5 Electrical System problem of the 2025 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/27/2026

**vehicle:** 2025 Jeep Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid **complaint categories:** service brakes / electrical system / power train # NHTSA safety complaint: sudden loss of propulsion and failure to respond to braking at highway speed while driving my 2025 Jeep Wrangler 4xe on a highway at approximately 55 mph, I experienced a sudden, simultaneous malfunction involving the vehicle's electrical systems, propulsion and braking. The first indication was an abrupt flash of the dashboard display. The event happened extremely quickly, but it appeared as though the vehicle's ignition had momentarily been turned off and then back on. Immediately afterward, multiple warning indicators appeared, including the turtle/reduced-power warning, abs/skidding indicator and red brake warning. * the same time, the vehicle began losing propulsion and failed to respond to normal braking input. I was unable to stop the vehicle using normal braking. Instead, the vehicle continued coasting until it eventually came to a stop, nearly going over an embankment. ** this was an extremely dangerous situation involving the simultaneous loss of propulsion and effective braking control while traveling at highway speed. After the vehicle stopped, I attempted to restart it, but it would not restart. ## dealership diagnosis I reported the incident to an authorized Jeep dealership. The service department subsequently advised me that the abs module was defective and required replacement. The dealership provided the following written explanation: "all of the codes in the system of your Wrangler are related to loss of communication with the abs module (a lot of the modules communicate to each other) when there is a loss of communication with the abs module it will shut the vehicle down, because it does not want you to drive it. " the dealership attributed the loss of propulsion to the loss of communication with the abs module. However, it has not provided technical documentation explaining why an ab.

9 Electrical System problem of the 2022 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/19/2026

Today is 10/19/2026. I have a 2022 Jeep Wrangler 4xe rubicon that has completed all of its safety recalls and recall notices. Each recall notice has been completed and each was marked as having no issues found. After completion of recall notice 68c (NHTSA 25v-741), we began to experience a complete change in how the car operates based on the vehicle mode selected on the 3 button panel (hybrid, electric, e-save). We are now experiencing a consistent inappropriate kicking in of the gasoline engine when selecting and driving in the "electric" only mode. Our normal driving of this car has occurred on the same roadways since we purchased the car from dealer stock. Prior to the safety recall notice referred to as "68c/NHTSA 25v-741), we could select the "electric" mode button on the 3 button panel selection and our 4xe would run exclusively in the electric mode until it approached or reached the 1% mark. Now, the vehicle will kick in the gasoline engine even when the electric charge is above 50% ( I have actually had it kick in at the 75% mark). In addition, when this happens, the engine will rev to the 3000-4000rpm range unlike when the selection mode is chosen for "hybrid". Today, while driving in the "electric" mode and with the battery in excess of 50%, the gasoline engine kicked in about 10x. I finally had to press the "e-save" button to prevent the excessive engine kicking in and revving. Please initiate an investigation on what Chrysler did to change the software that now is rendering my vehicle useless in some respects and in most respects defeats the exact purpose of wishing to run in electric mode if I know my trips will be under 20 miles. The excessive wear, tear, and strain on the engine due to the high revving can not in any fathomable way be deemed normal behavior! a review of some Jeep forums and youtube channels can confirm that other owners are experiencing the same exact issues.

10 Electrical System problem of the 2019 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/17/2026

My 2019 Jeep Wrangler jl has developed a severe, recurring electrical malfunction that causes multiple vehicle systems to fail simultaneously, resulting in unexpected loss of propulsion and the vehicle automatically shifting into park without driver input. The issue initially began with an intermittent “service shifter” warning, particularly when driving over bumps or braking. At first, the vehicle continued operating normally. After several weeks, the problem progressively worsened. Now, numerous dashboard warning lights illuminate simultaneously, including the battery, oil pressure, and brake indicators. The speedometer fluctuates erratically, and warnings such as “service electronic stability control” appear. The vehicle begins jerking, slowing down unexpectedly, and eventually loses propulsion. It may initially continue moving, but the malfunction progresses until the vehicle shifts into park without my input, preventing further operation. During one extremely dangerous incident, the vehicle malfunctioned and became disabled in the fast lane of [xxx], leaving me stranded in active highway traffic. I discovered that physically pressing down on electrical components connected to the dashboard fuse box sometimes temporarily restores normal operation after restarting the vehicle. However, the malfunction continues to recur and has become increasingly frequent. My VIN shows no outstanding safety recalls, but I am concerned about a potential electrical, wiring, power distribution, or electronic communication defect. The exact cause has not been diagnosed. I have video evidence of the dashboard malfunction and warning messages. I am requesting an investigation because this unpredictable failure creates a serious collision risk, particularly at highway speeds. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

11 Electrical System problem of the 2023 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/14/2026

The contact owns a 2023 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired under NHTSA campaign number: 26v363000 (steering); however, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle experienced a total loss of motive power. Warning messages stating "service shifter" and "check hydraulics" along with other unknown warning lights displayed on the instrument panel. Additionally, the contact felt that the recall repairs contributed to the failure. The vehicle was towed to the same local dealer; however, the failure could not be identified. The manufacturer was notified of the failure via email and telephone. The failure mileage was approximately 49,000.

12 Electrical System problem of the 2022 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/13/2026

The check engine light was on and it said to service the battery charging components. When driving in hybrid mode it doesn’t switch to use the battery. When I was trying to pull off after stopping, the Jeep hesitated and would not move and then all of a sudden jerked and took off almost making me crash and people crash into me.

13 Electrical System problem of the 2021 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/12/2026

Vehicle shuts down and looses all power and battery controls without warning. My 18 y/o daughter was driving the Jeep when this happened. Was unable to get vehicle into n for over an hour. Fuses and relays inside the under hood fuse block were extremely hot. After finally getting it into n, we removed from the travel lanes of the 4 lane highway. I had Jeep towed to house and waiting to hear back from dealer as to when I can have it towed in.

14 Electrical System problem of the 2020 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/12/2026

The instrument cluster dash lights go on and off all by themselves. This is a common problem with many Jeep Wranglers. Upon checking recalls I found my Jeep VIN was not listed. This can turn into deadly safety issues, not only for me but other drivers in different vehicles. What if the panel lights go off at night and I reck causing injuries to people or property?.

15 Electrical System problem of the 2020 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/11/2026

While driving, the entire digital instrument panel cluster suddenly short-circuited and went completely black, dropping all access to the speedometer and critical safety indicators. My vehicle has the 7-inch display. My independent repair shop diagnosed it as an internal short circuit and ordered a replacement mopar factory part, which is currently on a 2-month factory backorder, leaving the car grounded.

16 Electrical System problem of the 2022 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/10/2026

I’ve had an ongoing issue with my car since earlier this year, 2026, and the code says “electric coolant heater” and I have a solid check engine light. They replaced the coolant heater a few months ago and now it’s doing the same thing again. There’s also another recall for the power steering and I’ve recently started to notice that when I start my car (which I normally will sit there for a few minutes before I drive to let everything “wake up”) there is a delay in the steering ability. My steering wheel will remain stiff unless I jerk the wheel to “wake it up” in a sense. This just started happening this week. The dealership that I got this thing at is being no help whatsoever and I’m getting tired of this!!! they don’t have a loaner car available to me so they’ve been telling me to wait to make a service appointment until they have a car available but I cannot wait on this issue any longer. Matter of fact, this is absolutely ridiculous considering how much I pay for this thing every month and how lack of help the dealership has been!!!! I need a solution for this now.

The vehicle has lost power multiple times and have been at the dealership now twice due to it first time the check engine light went off before the dealership could find an issue and they couldn’t find anything second time after losing power on the expressway. They check engine light came on for a few days and went off by time my appointment at the dealership. The determined the pim had issues and are replacing it.

18 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/08/2026

Wife took Jeep to dealership for recalls. Dropped it off, got a rental car. A short while later, dealership called to say Jeep had an electrical fire while on the charger at the dealership. Fire dept called and Jeep was sent to salvage yard to "burn out. " total loss of vehicle. 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe high altitude. Leased the vehicle new on 9/23/24. Just over 35k miles. Using a level 2 charger at home and no issues prior to this. Jeep customer care promised an investigation within 3-4 business days. Today is the 6th business day and still no contact from them. Multiple attempts to call them for update and no one will return our call. Ally financial says they can't do anything until investigation is complete. Personal insurance will cover, but should not have to, as this is a known issue and was at the Jeep dealership on their charger.

19 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/08/2026

For about three days now, off and on, more on than off, the screen will pixelate, which is extremely distracting and dangerous. A few times it’s completely shut off to where I’ve had to pull over and power cycle the vehicle to get it to turn back on.

20 Electrical System problem of the 2025 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/06/2026

My complaint with Jeep/stellantis goes far beyond dissatisfaction with a buyback amount. My family leased a new 2025 Jeep Wrangler expecting a safe vehicle, and instead we have been placed in a worse position after dealing with serious recall and safety concerns. Fca has agreed to repurchase our vehicle, yet the process requires us to continue maintaining and driving a vehicle we no longer feel safe using while waiting weeks for the repurchase to be completed. A potential vehicle-fire condition is not a cosmetic defect or minor inconvenience—it is a legitimate safety concern involving the driver, passengers, surrounding vehicles, homes, and property. My three primary concerns are: **(1) safety:** Jeep has vehicles in customers' possession subject to serious safety recalls involving potential fire hazards, yet customers may still be left waiting for repairs or resolution. **(2) remedy:** even after fca agreed to repurchase our Wrangler, the proposed financial resolution leaves us in a worse financial position and without sufficient funds to reasonably transition into a replacement vehicle. We were offered substantial compensation to keep the vehicle, but keeping a vehicle we are concerned could present a fire risk is not a reasonable solution for our family. **(3) process:** once a manufacturer acknowledges a serious safety issue and agrees to repurchase a vehicle, there should be an expedited process to remove that vehicle from the customer and provide a fair resolution—not weeks of additional payments, paperwork, uncertainty, and continued possession of the affected vehicle. What concerns me most is that this is bigger than our individual case. Safety recalls involving potential vehicle fires can have serious consequences, and manufacturers should treat them accordingly. Customers should not have to choose between continuing to drive a vehicle they do not feel safe in or accepting a resolution that puts them in a worse financial position. Jeep/stellantis needs to.

21 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/05/2026

Upon starting the vehicle, dashboard airbag light comes on in conjunction with error message "airbag system disabled" in conjunction with sos light illuminated and error message "sos services unavailable" displayed in vehicle infotainment system. After driving between 10-30 minutes, all warning lights go off and no further issues arise as long as vehicle is in operation. Errors reoccure after turning vehicle off then back on again.

22 Electrical System problem of the 2016 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/05/2026

Vehicle reflects a code of c2200. It is due to a faulty abs module that controls the antilock brake system, traction w and cruise control. The remedy is to replace the part (part number 68259556ad). This part has been on national back order for several years now with no anticipated date of release. The manufacturer has indicated it will not be made. This is a safety item that not only affects the performance of the vehicle but limits it resale value. Numerous vehicles from 2011-2017 models have been affected.

25 Electrical System problem of the 2021 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/27/2026

Manufacturer corporate and its dealer network are failing to provide a safe, timely remedy for a vehicle subject to high-voltage battery fire recalls (recall 68c / NHTSA campaign 25v-741) and a power steering fire recall (recall 21d / NHTSA campaign 21v-363). The vehicle has an active check engine light, a disabled hybrid propulsion system, and has now suffered a catastrophic electronic brake booster failure on a college campus, rendering the brake pedal rock-hard like compressed air and leaving the vehicle unable to stop normally. This is a direct, recurring safety failure of diagnostic trouble code dtc c0580-00 (brake booster motor circuit low), which was officially documented by a franchise dealer in June 2026. The vehicle also has an extensive history of severe manufacturing defects, including an extraordinary 72-day out-of-service period at a dealership in miami, FL for a disintegrated rear axle bearing that destroyed the differential housing, alongside advanced structural body rust on hinges found to be unsafe. The manufacturer was formally notified of this active safety emergency and loss of vehicle utility on Sunday, September 27, via email and corporate phone logs, but failed to respond or secure the vehicle. We are formally demanding an expedited manufacturer repurchase/buyout due to total loss of vehicle utility, structural housing conflicts under 'park outside' directives, and severe physical safety liability.

26 Electrical System problem of the 2023 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/24/2026

On September 24, 2026, recall 68c was completed on my Jeep Wrangler 4xe by an authorized Jeep dealership. Following completion of the recall, the first attempt to charge the vehicle resulted in an electrical fire at the charging location. During the charging event, the charger and electrical outlet melted, and the wiring connected to the outlet began to burn. The fire appears to have originated at the charging equipment and outlet. No visible damage occurred to the vehicle itself; however, the charger, outlet, and wiring sustained significant damage. Post-recall vehicle performance concerns: since completion of recall 68c, the vehicle has not operated correctly in electric mode. The following conditions were not present prior to the recall service: the internal combustion engine (ice) repeatedly cycles on and off while the vehicle is displaying "electric" mode on the instrument panel. Acceleration and overall vehicle performance are significantly reduced. The vehicle experiences severe throttle lag and delayed accelerator response. In some instances, there is little or no throttle response, followed by sudden engine engagement at engine speeds exceeding 3,000 rpm. Vehicle operation in electric mode is inconsistent and unpredictable. These performance issues began immediately following completion of recall 68c and have persisted since the recall service was performed. Additional information: I have become aware of reports from other Jeep 4xe owners who have described similar drivability and electric mode concerns after completion of recall 68c. Given the charging-related fire event and the significant changes in vehicle operation that appeared immediately after the recall was performed, I am requesting that NHTSA investigate whether these conditions may be related to the recall 68c remedy or associated software and system changes. Safety concerns: fire hazard during charging. Loss of expected vehicle performance. Delayed or unpredictable throttle response.

27 Electrical System problem of the 2019 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/24/2026

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mph, the instrument panel cluster suddenly went black. The contact pulled to the side of the road and waited for a family member to follow closely behind to ensure a safe drive, as essential driving information was no longer visible. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the instrument panel cluster had failed and required a complete assembly replacement. The vehicle was pending repair. The contact learned of NHTSA campaign number: 24v652000 (electrical system); however, the vehicle was not covered under the recall because the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified and confirmed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 81,000.

28 Electrical System problem of the 2023 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/21/2026

While driving my 2023 Jeep Wrangler sahara 4xe at approximately 70 mph in hybrid mode the vehicle suddenly and without warning experienced a complete loss of propulsion while I was traveling in traffic. The vehicle would no longer respond normally to the accelerator and I was unable to maintain speed. The drive (d) indicator began flashing and multiple warning lights and messages appeared on the instrument cluster. I specifically remember the red battery/charging-system warning being illuminated. The dashboard also displayed a warning relating to the power/charging system and a message instructing me to shift or put the vehicle into park. I had to get the vehicle safely out of moving traffic. This was extremely frightening because the loss of propulsion occurred suddenly at highway speed and could have resulted in a serious collision. This vehicle has previously been brought to an authorized Jeep dealership multiple times for recalls/service involving the battery/electrical/12-volt system. On a previous occasion, the vehicle also failed to start while parked in my garage. After this highway incident occurred and after I was eventually able to get the vehicle operating again, my husband disconnected the 12-volt battery in an attempt to perform a hard reset. The battery was disconnected after the loss-of-propulsion event and therefore did not precede the highway failure. The vehicle is currently at an authorized Jeep dealership for diagnosis. I have asked the dealership to document the complete loss of propulsion, retrieve any available stored, pending, history or permanent diagnostic trouble codes, and determine the cause of the failure. I am reporting this incident because I am very concerned that an electrical, hybrid, battery, charging or powertrain defect may cause the vehicle to suddenly lose motive power again while being driven. A sudden loss of propulsion at highway speed presents a serious safety risk to the occupants of this vehicle and to other motorists.

29 Electrical System problem of the 2021 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/21/2026

The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that at start-up the instrument panel was blank. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the instrument panel had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to parts not being available. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 24v652000 (electrical system); as a possible cause for the failure. The failure mileage was 91,000.

30 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/20/2026

Our Wrangler was taken in to get the 68c recall done and once we finally got the vehicle back the electric driving mode had significantly less power to the point where the vehicle showed it was limited to 43-45kw of power output to the electric motors which resulted in a top speed of about 67-70mph until it completely failed and said "electric mode temporarily unavailable" on the dash. It then stumbles and restarts after a brief pause thag causes the vehicle to slow down to 55-58mph and then the vehicle can accelerate again only on gasoline power. This problem is easily repeatable and seems to be directly tied to a major software update limiting power output of this vehicle compare to the original power numbers of when we purchased this vehicle.

31 Electrical System problem of the 2021 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/20/2026

On September 20, 2026 I came outside to find the charging port on my 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe smoking and extremely hot to touch. It had been plugged into a level 1 (120v) charging cable to charge overnight outside our garage. I immediately unplugged the charging cable and placed it on the ground. While inspecting the charging port on my Jeep I found the pins charred and melted plastic inside the port, possibly caused from electrical arcing. I made an appointment with the dealership the following day but had to wait until October 26 to be seen. During the appt on oct 26 they completed software updates and confirmed the charging port had been destroyed and complete replacement was necessary due to the severe high voltage thermal incident. They quoted $1055 for replacement, denying warranty coverage due to mileage (137,000 miles). I believe this malfunction represents a severe malfunctioning defect in the high voltage charging infrastructure of my Jeep 4xe vehicle that put my vehicle, home, and family at risk.

32 Electrical System problem of the 2023 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/19/2026

Driving in full electric mode after about 6 miles, while trying to accelerate to cross in front of traffic you have a major power loss. You will start to decelerate then the engine will kick in and start at full power load 6-7 thousand rpm the vehicle will lung and a large smell of over fueling comes in the vents. This happens with very drive, some are more dangerous.

33 Electrical System problem of the 2023 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/18/2026

Subject: performance degradation and drive mode faults following recall 68c update – 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xeto whom it may concern,I am writing to formally report a significant degradation in vehicle performance and powertrain management following the completion of the recall 68c software update on my 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe. Prior to the update, the vehicle operated efficiently and provided excellent torque and acceleration. I purchased this plug-in hybrid vehicle specifically to utilize electric-only (ev) mode for my daily 30-mile highway commute between [xxx] and [xxx]. However, since the recall 68c service was completed, the vehicle exhibits the following issues:involuntary engine switching: even when the vehicle is actively set to "electric" mode, the hybrid powertrain constantly forces transitions between battery power and the internal combustion engine. This behavior occurs under normal driving conditions in ambient outdoor temperatures of approximately 80°f. Loss of electric powertrain performance: the available power and torque in electric-only mode are noticeably diminished compared to the pre-recall performance levels. Compromised vehicle utility & increased operating costs: because the gasoline engine frequently overrides the electric settings, the primary functional utility of the phev system is negated. This failure to maintain electric propulsion has dramatically increased my fuel consumption and operati the safety software update deployed to mitigate high-voltage battery cell risks has fundamentally compromised the vehicle's advertised performance, utility, and drivetrain integrity. I request that the NHTSA investigate whether these post-recall performance changes constitute a systematic defect and urge stellantis/Jeep to provide a permanent software or hardware correction. Thank you for your attention to this matter and for your oversight regarding consumer vehicle safety and compliance. Sincerely, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

34 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/18/2026

I want to preface by saying I love my Jeep and I baby it. It only has 13k miles on it (mostly highway) and I have never taken it offroad. However, I paid a ton of money for a vehicle that, not only has lost more than half it's value in 2 years, but is also not reliable or safe. A 70k value vehicle that is only worth less than 30k now. I have several ongoing issues and they have happened multiple times. The 68c and 78c recalls caused so many issues with performance, safety and reliability of my Jeep. Jeep misrepresented the number of affected vehicles. I purchased my Jeep based on the claimed reliability, good fuel economy (for a Jeep) and the low end torque and peppy ride it used to have. Following the 68c and 78c recalls, it no longer responds the way it should (and used to) when pressing the gas pedal. Power is greatly reduced and it inhibits my ability to safely merge into traffic and accelerate on the highway. My Jeep abruptly died in the middle of a highway in June while I was accelerating to switch lanes. The Jeep came to a halting stop from 65mph-0mph in a matter of 2-3 seconds and a car behind me almost rear ended me. Jeep advises not to park near the house or charge it. I can't park in the garage so my Jeep also takes a weather beating year round. When I press the brake with force, the Jeep skids and skips forward before stopping. I have had many close calls where I almost rear ended someone at a stop light because the Jeep lurches forward on its own. When braking, it often makes the tires squeal as it's lurching forward in an attempt to stop itself. I bought this vehicle to drive from PA to FL 2x a year. Something I can safely transport my family. I do not trust it anymore so I had to purchase a second vehicle. The Jeep also squeaks at low speeds and the dealer doesn't know what it is. It already leaks water when it rains. 21d recall is upcoming - another fire risk. Vehicle is scheduled to go to dealer on 9/21. Please help - I want what I paid for!.

35 Electrical System problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/18/2026

I have a failed 68c federal recall safety remedy recall. The Jeep suffered a catastrophic high-voltage battery and powertrain failure while operating at highway speeds. The vehicle is unsafe to drive, charge, or park near structures due to fire risk. In December of 2025 at the Jeep's authorized dealership the battery passed corporate software diagnostics, and stellantis assured me the vehicle was safe to operate. The recall remedy completely failed. On September 18, 2026 while driving at highway speeds in active traffic, the vehicle suffered a total loss of powertrain power and shut down completely, creating an imminent safety hazard for myself and others. The vehicle has been sitting at the dealership since then. There are also other active recalls on the vehicle that put myself and others in danger. Parking in a garage or near a structure are not permitted. It is also not safet to charge.
