Other Fuel System Problems of Jeep Wrangler - part 1

When I drive out of my neighborhood there is a small hill and when I start going up the hill it starts to lose power. Enough power that I have hit the gas pedal or it holds up traffic. I usually put it in cruise and that's when it does this. This was not a problem until we did all the recalls. This continues to be frustrating. And Jeep- stellantis is no help. This happens everyday. This vehicle does it everyday. It doesn't have the power that it use to. My gas mileage has took a hit also because the engine starts way before it use to. It defeats the whole purpose of purchasing this vehicle.

Since my 68c recall repair my Jeep has suffered from sudden electric power loss. This can occur when trying to accelerate from a stop or merging into faster moving traffic. This can also happen while driving and attempting to accelerate resulting in sudden slowdown before gas engine kicks in. This happens daily.

While driving in electric mode on the highway at 60+ mph, the vehicle suddenly lost power . Chimes sounded, and an alert on the dash read “battery power unavailable” (or similar, I don’t remember the exact words). It appeared to switch into gas mode after about 6 seconds. Dangerous and frightening nonetheless.

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.

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.

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.

I had only been driving for maybe 4 or 5 miles on back roads. All flat, not highway speeds, most of those miles at speeds from 35-45. Encountered a small hill that is really nothing. The first symptom is that I will feel a slight hesitation in the gas pedal. You could almost mistake it for a transmission gear switch. Then shortly thereafter it's a full on hesitation and a nearly dead gas pedal. Finally it becomes the electric mode unavailable error and super high rev on the internal combustion engine when it starts up. Ev battery has approx 75% charge. This happens almost daily and it often happens when merging on to highways too. Sudden loss of power in electric mode and suddenly an error on the dash saying "electric mode unavailable".

I am reporting a serious safety issue with my 2024 Jeep Wrangler rubicon x. When operating the vehicle in electric (ev) mode, the vehicle intermittently fails to maintain forward propulsion when I press the accelerator. There is a dangerous hesitation or complete loss of throttle response, particularly when attempting to merge into highway traffic or when climbing a hill. The vehicle can suddenly lose power even though the accelerator pedal is being pressed. This loss of forward power creates an extremely dangerous situation because the vehicle cannot maintain the flow of traffic or accelerate when needed. I have experienced multiple near-accidents as a result of this hesitation and lack of throttle response. The problem has made me consider the vehicle unsafe to drive, particularly in situations requiring immediate acceleration. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this issue as a potential safety defect affecting the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe. This is a very frightfully consistent issue now.

My vehicle has an ongoing serious problem when in electric mode. As the battery level falls below 50% the vehicle’s fails to accelerate properly. While on the highway this causes the vehicle to reduce speed and endangers me and my family as you cannot keep up with the flow of traffic when merging or changing lanes. There are also some issues when starting the vehicle it sometimes skips the warmup cycle and idles extremely high from a cold start.

Since the 68c recall the performance of the vehicle when merging into traffic, in extended periods of time in electric or going up hill while maintaining speed in electric will slow the vehicle down to have no power to maintain the speed. This causes a safety issue with the vehicle and to other motorists around the vehicle. After having to press harder on the accelerator to get back up to speed the vehicle take many seconds before turning the gas motor on to get it to this speed. Again making this a safety issue with the vehicle. There needs to be investigation as the vehicle no longer performs the same as when purchased and causes a safety issue to the driver and other motorists.

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!.

Since recall 68c was completed in February, the performance of the vehicle in electric mode has degraded significantly. Prior to 68c, the gas engine was nearly impossible to engage in electric mode which was a good thing and clearly intended for extreme circumstances where unusually rapid acceleration was required. Also prior to 68c the electric acceleration was dependable and predictable both around town and at highway speeds. I live atop a 1. 5 mile hill and could travel bottom to top without the engine engaging. Since 68c, I have consistently observed multiple changes in performance in electric mode: 1) the engine will engage much sooner and more frequently upon acceleration in any conditions. Wherever it happens, this is an unpredictable behavior that puts instant load on a cold, unlubricated engine. 2) at and approaching highway speeds in electric mode, the vehicle will begin to lose acceleration, hesitate and the gas engine will engage - again putting load on a cold, unlubricated engine. This can happen after several miles or after just a few miles. When the engine engages, it does not engage smoothly - the engine will rev high then drop down, then rev high then disengage - all inconsistently and all unexpectedly. While this is happening, the vehicle's acceleration or ability to maintain speed is inconsistent and constant manipulation of the throttle is necessary to ensure I'm not losing too much speed relative to the traffic around me. I don't know what changes were made as part of the 68c recall remedy but it has dramatically changed how electric mode is managed, has significantly decreased vehicle performance in electric mode and puts my and my passengers' safety at risk when I'm driving. The problem has not been reproduced by a dealer and I've confirmed that the latest software is installed. The component has not been inspected. The issues described above only presented after the 68c recall work was performed and occur without warning.

Following the recent recall 68c service administered by Jeep, my vehicle has exhibited several severe performance issues that pose direct mechanical and safety risks. 1. Erratic gas engine engagement & mechanical strain previously, under normal operation, if the vehicle required the gasoline engine while in electric mode, the engine would start at a standard idle (around 1,500 rpm). It would run briefly to lubricate moving parts before contributing to power delivery. Currently, the system behaves erratically. When electric operation exceeds 25% power under load, the gas engine frequently kicks on with absolutely no warm-up period. It immediately jumps to the 3,000 to 3,500 rpm range, forcing high-rpm operation on dry, unlubricated moving parts. 2. Severe acceleration lag (critical safety hazard) the most alarming issue is a frequent 5-to-10-second lag during which the vehicle refuses to accelerate, and the electric power meter will not exceed 25%. This lag occurs during critical driving maneuvers, including: accelerating from stoplights or stop signs, changing lanes, and merging into active traffic. For example, while driving in electric mode in a 40 mph zone, the vehicle will begin accelerating normally under mild throttle. However, once the power delivery meter reaches 25%, the vehicle barely increases speed. Even with increased throttle pressure, there is a 2-to-5-second pause before the gas engine abruptly kicks on to resume normal acceleration. Conclusion: this unpredictable delay in throttle response is a severe safety hazard for myself, my passengers, and the general public. While I do not know the exact software or mechanical modifications included in the latest recall "fix," it has undeniably compromised the vehicle's drivability and safety. These performance defects need to be addressed and corrected immediately.

After the 68c recall work, my Jeep Wrangler 4xe no longer feels safe to drive. The vehicle no longer performs the way it did when I purchased it and now frequently behaves erratically, putting my wife and me in situations that are unsafe on public roads. Some of this behavior also appears potentially harmful to the vehicle’s components. Personal safety concerns: on multiple occasions, the vehicle has limited available power to approximately 10–15%, leaving me unable to accelerate normally. This has happened more times than I can count. The most concerning instances have occurred while making left turns across traffic, crossing intersections, and accelerating onto higher-speed roads such as highways. At other times, I have been honked at, yelled at, or flashed by drivers because the vehicle would not accelerate or maintain speed as expected. Equipment safety concerns: the only way I have found to restore power is to press the accelerator to the floor. Doing so causes the internal combustion engine (ice) to start immediately, bypassing its normal warm-up period and placing the engine under significant load while still cold. This has happened repeatedly at speeds from 0–45 mph, even when the battery was above 50%. General performance issues: while driving in electric mode, the vehicle now automatically switches to hybrid mode in situations where it never did before the recall work. For example, yesterday I was driving about 45 mph on a flat road with no significant wind or abrupt accelerator input when the ice unexpectedly started. The battery was still above 50%. After the engine warmed up, it shut back down and did not restart. This behavior did not occur before the 68c recall work. The vehicle’s operation is now unpredictable, particularly when accelerating, and I no longer feel I can rely on it to respond safely when needed.

When in electric mode, after driving about 5 miles, it will suddenly drop power and not accelerate. After 5-10 seconds the engine will turn on. It's in the 5-10 seconds that is a safety concern because it can happen at any time, merging into traffic, or other time when acceleration is necessary to avoid a collision. I've talked to my dealership and they say it's normal because there are no engine codes.

Every recall they have done on our Jeep regarding the battery has diminished the performance of our Jeep. Now in electric mode , you never know what you are going to get. Sometimes it has decent power and other times it lags and does nothing. Really scary when you are trying to merge. When it is in hybrid mode, the engine kicks on at what seems like full throttle which is not safe either. When we bought it new, neither of these were problems. I want it back to what I originally bought which felt way more safe to drive. I don’t even want my [xxx] and [xxx] kids to drive it because of how unpredictable it is to drive.

As I was driving the vehicle this afternoon my entire Jeep smelled like gas. I felt like I was breathing in fresh gas coming from my ac vents. I did vent my windows as I started to get a headache & I had to go home and get my husband’s vehicle before picking up my children because I could not expose them to such toxic fumes. Even though my VIN shows zero unrepaired recalls, my hybrid Jeep was part of the national recall of being of a fire risk and had all kinds of service lights on. When I took it to the dealer they told me if the battery didn’t fail, the Jeep was fine. They cleared the codes and replaced the heater and I am not sure how that fixes the national recall? prior to going to the dealer, there was no fix for this recall and the notice told me not to plug it in. But now the recall is cleared? now I have gas fumes filling my Jeep and there is no leak outside the vehicle. I have a witness to that. I facetimed my mom when I got home and we looked under the vehicle together. At this point, it says my vehicle is not safe to drive,.

While driving the car in electric mode the car has very bad lag/hesitation while driving on the highway and when at a stop pulling out into traffic. After driving it in electric mode for approximately 8 miles. It will also feel as though it is not as powerful. I feel as though this could cause an accident from lack of power and hesitation.

Having an on-going issue that happens nearly every time I operate the vehicle. Post "68c" recall, the Jeep's software has nerfed the power of the vehicle. It doesn't accelerate well, will not maintain speed, loses electric power (and switches to ice) very frequently even when there is plenty of charge left, and creates a dangerous situation when driving in traffic. Up-hill is a battle and even on flat roads the Jeep will often not accelerate even when the pedal is pressed all the way to the ground. I have brought the vehicle in to the dealership multiple times, the last time after it lost all power while on the highway. A "star" case was opened with stellantis who responded, in writing, that the vehicle is operating as expected. This is not the same vehicle I purchased in 2023 and I am beyond angry and often times scared that something might happen where I cannot react fast enough or am in a situation where the loss of power will endanger myself or others. To be clear, this has been happening for months since the 68c recall work was performed.

68c recall software update has caused some form of loss of power, doesn’t fully power off, it feels as if it is throttling the electric motor causing the engine to suddenly start and rev high (5-7k rpm) bypassing the warm up time that’s built into the software for the engine. Now on 09/14/2026 (Monday) the vehicle through a dtc code “p0bbe-00” high voltage battery voltage variation. It went into limp mode while attempting to drive up the roll back (flatbed tow truck). Currently awaiting dealer diagnostic.

Since the 68c recall I experience power loss that makes it very difficult to safely operate vehicle in electric only mode. Power loss occurs while attempting to merge into highway traffic sometimes. It also abruptly shifts into gas mode while not in peak demand mode.

After the 68c Jeep recall(nhtsd 25v-741), my 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe began losing power and propulsion while in electric and hybrid mode. I have to drive on a hilly highway to and from work and the Jeep just loses acceleration and the gas pedal does nothing to regain momentum. This is becoming quite dangerous for me and fellow drivers on the the road near me. This is a definite safety concern which needs to be addressed. I have taken my Jeep to the dealership three times now explaining the problem, but they are unable to duplicate it or pull codes from the internal computer showing what was happening. I even receive warning lights and a message on the dash stating to take vehicle to the service center for maintenance, but when I restarted the vehicle the message was gone. Again, this is extremely dangerous and needs to be addressed and corrected. Thank you.

The vehicle has a lack of power in electric mode and stalls when the engine turns on to run on gas power. This is causing merging issues or ramping up to speed to enter the highway. When trying to quickly turn or avoid being hit by an oncoming traffic when you floor the accelerator, it lags and doesn’t engage power to quickly move out of the way. You have to be in gas mode for a quick response. This happens all the time.

This vehicle had a 68c recall (software) that has resulted in a significant change in the vehicle performance that resulted in unexpected power loss during its electric vehicle propulsion system that has nearly resulted in accidents on the road and on the freeway. This never happened before and it happens often now. The Jeep dealership claims there are no known error malfunction codes however there has been a material change in the operating environment and is very unsafe.

Jeep did a recall that was called 68c and ever since that update, the Jeep has not been the same. The Jeep is a hybrid (4xe) model that has an electric mode that has become virtually useless since the recall. I have experienced loss of power almost every time I drive the vehicle. The engine starts and loads almost immediately at random times which I can only imagine hurts the engine without any sort of warm up time. I was waiting for Jeep to offer another recall to fix the problems, but I have reached my limit on waiting for them to act. I just want my Jeep to act and drive the way it drove before the failed 68c recall. Hopefully this will be the start.

I believe this has to do with a recall software update 68c that Jeep put out to resolve issues with the high voltage battery. This is a plug in hybrid Jeep Wrangler 4xe and since the software update the vehicle does not perform the way it did before and is a definite safety issue. When running in electric mode the vehicle sometimes does not respond as it should, like a hesitation, then the gas engine will suddenly start and accelerate much faster than was intended. You will be pressing on the pedal more and more then suddenly, zoom ! this is very dangerous when merging or pulling into traffic. The dealership will just tell you there are no fault codes and the vehicle is operating normally. There are no warning lamps or messages the only way to safely operate the vehicle now is gas engine mode (e-save). There are certain conditions that bring this on but it can be random .

When driving my Jeep 4xe hybrid powertrain in "electric" mode, I noticed loss of power at highway speeds, and other times at lower speeds. Pushing on gas pedal doesn't translate to acceleration. Engine kicks on but doesn't have a gear to find. This happens at various speeds, going 25mph up a hill or 55mph on a highway either flat or up a hill.

My vehicles check engine light came on in the morning when starting the vehicle. It was a solid check engine light not flashing. I proceede to drive the vehicle and while pressing the accelerator the vehicle does not move. The engine done not connect immediatly, this is a hybrid vehicle so it attempts to use both the electrical and gas motors. The engin begins to rev very high and then after somewhere between 5-10 secounds of no power the vechicle jumps forward with the gas engine connecting. I attempt to put the vehicle into gas only mode, but this also does not work as this setting is turned off along with the electrical only mode. Other interior electronics are not working either. When attempting to drive to my local auto parts store to find out the codes for the check engine the vehicle shut off the gas engine preventing the vehicle from accelerating. Then seemingly randomly the engine will kick on and lurch the vehicle forward and then stop and turn off the gas engine again. The safty of myself and other are at risk because of the uncontrolable acceleration or loss of power randomly while driving. The problem has now been reproducable for multiple days. I have reported it to my dealership bloomington chrystler, Jeep, Dodge, ram. And was told they do not have any appointments available and I should wait and should be safe to continue driving. Upon getting the codes from the auto parts store obd2 scanner I received 4 counts of the p0bee code and 1 count of the p1abc code. I informed my dealership of this and they told me that I should continue to drive it until my appointment and that they can assess it then. In the mean time I have lost power in the middle of intersections while attempting to drive through. I have lurched forward into crosswalks with pedestrians attempting to cross the street at stop signs and have lost power on streets when slowing down causing the vehicle to be unable to restart until coming to a complete stop and restarting.

My Jeep Wrangler currently has a very strong fuel smell, and when the ac is on the smell is very strong inside the cabin. My kids and I became ill and had headaches. It's been parked for two weeks. Pending an inspection by an independent mechanic. We came across an article stating that a lot of 2020 Jeep Wranglers with 2. 0l motors were recalled because of the same issue but my Jeep was not recalled and I'm having the same issue. Is there anything you can do to help me?.

My vehicle is currently in the shop getting the high voltage battery replaced for the second time due to a code showing battery voltage variation as well as getting the latest 21d recall completed. The Jeep currently has about 90,000 miles and has received all other recalls. The Jeep no longer functions or performs like it did when I took ownership in February of 2022. It routinely loses power when trying to accelerate onto highways or into traffic lanes or up hills. You can push the pedal down and there is a noticeable delay of several seconds before the vehicle starts to accelerate. The car no longer will stay in selected "electric mode" and will instead kick the engine on at random times or take the vehicle out of "electric" and into "hybrid". When at slow speeds (under 15mph) in traffic the Jeep lurches and slows, unable to maintain a constant speed. Also I have no way of proving that the overall power has been reduced through programming but the acceleration and advertised 375hp/470lb-ft does not seem to have the same feeling that it once did when first purchasing this vehicle. I believe there is a dangerous ongoing safety issue possibly with the programming, as well as the hv batteries. There were no warning lights coming on during the course of the last several months until I had a cel for battery voltage variation and then it was taken to the dealership on the same day. There has been no communication with Jeep/stellantis other than them issuing an unlimited mileage warranty on the hv battery. They seem to be replacing it with the same design, and therefore not addressing the issue only putting a band aid on the problem.

The high voltage battery failed to charge, power surges and power drops while on highway plus burning smell. Charger stopped charging and gave warning light. No one was able to replicate so I was forced to take vehicle back. I am in las vegas and asked if this could be the issue. No one could verify or give me advice. Having done my own investigations I see high temperatures can affect and cause thermal fires. The manufacturer is not taking this seriously and also dealers in nevada where it is excessively over recommended temperatures to charge should be making owners of these vehicles aware or don’t sell them in the state. I have been treated appallingly from everyone trying to ensure my safety. Although I was lucky there was no serious incident I believe this will happen. Furthermore with the fires in ev or hybrids, why if excessive heat is an issue, are the fires not being investigated as to where and what states. I thought NHTSA was there to protect and provide safety information for manufacturers to follow. I am being left to drive a vehicle in which me my family and others are being put in danger.

1: ever since one of the recalls was "addressed", the vehicle seems to lack power when taking off, etc. It seems like it lacks propulsion. 2: I was driving on the highway several times, and for no reason, the power reduces greatly and I am unable to go above 60 mph. The warning light (as seen in the attached) comes on and stays on until the vehicle is turned off. This has happened to me several times at different speeds (with and without adaptive cruise control on). I cannot seem to replicate this again, and, when the light comes on, it's been at times that I was unable to take it to the dealer with the light on. It sat at my local dealer for about 3 weeks cumulative as of lately, and they could not get the light to come on. They even got a ta to come out, and they couldn't find the issue or cause the light to go on. Keep in mind. . . This is a leased vehicle, and miles matter. I took the car back since I cannot continue paying for a rental (even though they eventually may reimburse me). I have had several issues with this vehicle throughout the life of the lease. I cannot wait to turn it in or possibly involve a lawyer for a lemon law issue. I cannot continue paying what I do for my lease and not having a reliable vehicle to drive. I'm paying a premium payment and am not comfortable driving this car anymore. It is a safety hazard with not knowing when this warning light and lack of power will occur. Please make stellantis/Jeep make this right!! I loved my Wrangler, but the risks of driving it are not acceptable.

Absolutely terrible gasoline vapor filling the inside cabin of the vehicle causing burning eyes, nausea and feeing ill. Checked for fuel, leak, leakage recall, while there was one it wasn’t including our VIN, however, after inspection and repair, it is the exact same damage as what was indicated in the recall. Looking for a full refund for repair and compensation for danger, discomfort, safety and inconvenience of vehicle not being included in the original recall. I am appalled and insulted that Jeep dealerships aren’t more more proactive in having to appeal these dangerous situations.

I am reporting repeated premature failures of the factory charge air cooler (turbo intercooler) hoses on my 2022 Jeep Wrangler ecodiesel (3. 0l v6). Within 73,000 miles, both the primary and secondary turbo charge hoses have hardened, cracked, and failed under standard boost pressure. Safety risk: when these turbo charge hoses split, the engine experiences an immediate and complete loss of boost pressure (limp mode / code p0299), severely restricting acceleration and vehicle speed. This sudden, unannounced loss of engine power occurs while driving at highway speeds, creating a severe rear-end collision hazard in heavy traffic. Failure history & repair documentation: first hose failure: replaced by an authorized Jeep dealership at under 60,000 miles (November 2025). Second hose failure: replaced by an authorized Jeep dealership at 73,000 miles (August 2026). Stellantis/Jeep treats these recurring structural hose splits as non-warranty "wear and tear," forcing out-of-pocket repairs despite the severe highway safety hazard caused by sudden power loss. I am requesting NHTSA open a safety defect investigation into the material failure rate of 3. 0l ecodiesel charge air hoses.

On xxx I delivered my vehicle to the Jeep dealership in [xxx] to secure the remedy for recall number 68c 2020-2025 jl & 2022-2026 wl phev hv battery fires. The dealership service manager, at the time of pick up, stated the vehicle passed the test and no further action was required. I do not know what action was taken but something adverse has happened. Since receiving the vehicle back, when driving in electric mode and without warning, it now randomly loses power. Applying more pressure to the accelerator does not restore power immediately. After a couple of seconds delay, the gasoline engine kicks in to provide power, but that two second delay is enough to trigger a collision when pulling out into traffic, or a rear-end event when power is unexpectedly lost on straight-aways. In nearly three years of ownership, this problematic behavior never occurred even once until the 68c recall remedy was applied. Stallantis / fca may have reduced or eliminated the battery fire risk, but the "remedy" has now created an even more dangerous condition. Please insure that the manufacturer takes immediate and appropriate action to fix this serious issue. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
