FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
The jeep lost power after only driving abojt a mile down the road. all the lights came on the dash and I had to pull over until it came to a slow stop, the brakes didn’t seem like they working. Once in park I got a dash light that said Service Charging System. I was not able to move it out of park to even neutral. After about 15 minutes I was able to get it to start and drove it home about 1 mile- it did the same thing. When it restarted the check engine light is on.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
While driving the car just shit off.. put it in park put my hazzards on and started the car back up. Put it to the test again while backing out of the driveway and it shut off while I’m reverse. The stereo has been glitching for about a couple of month where it constantly has to reboot while driving. It has now caused the issues for the whole car to just die while in motion.. this is I huge safety issue especially with younger kids. If I was on the highway when this would have happened who knows how much more fatal this could have been. I do a ton of highway driving and that’s all we have used the car for and for drive around our small town. I fear that even taking it to the dealership to get it fixed I am not sure i am comfortable in its after features it has..

ENGINE
Car engine light appeared after a recent uconnect update. Shortly thereafter the car randomly shut down while driving. It results in a flashing light stating to put the car in park and press on the brake to restart. It restarts no problem but randomly shuts down again with the same messaging. It shut down 4 times in less than 3 miles and is a major safety issue. You have no acceleration but can brake. It is extremely dangerous when it occurs as i was pulling into traffic when this occurred. My model is a 2024 and has no open safety recalls as I was informed that the previous unconnect update issue was not a factor for my vehicle.

After the update it did, it will only drive like 20 feet. We lost acceleration and power in the middle of a busy road numerous times. Had to restart the vehicle every time. Severe safety issue, we had to coast into an intersection through a red light because we couldn’t stop because the engine kept stalling.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
The Jeep turns off at random times that I have to coast to a stop, put it in park, and then try and restart it again. That’s dangerous going down a highway and the Jeep to completely lose power and shut off or going through an intersection and having the Jeep shut off.

ENGINE, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
The incident happened between October 10 and 13, 2025. Updating the Jeep Uconnect and software. It was a long weekend for me, so I decided to take my family, my wife, and two kids to the sand dunes at Pismo Beach. Luckily, I tried to avoid updating on Friday night because of a Facebook post from other Jeep Wrangler owners from 2024. A long weekend of supposed fun and activities turned into a nightmare Sunday afternoon when it updated over the air through Uconnect. Every 7 to 10 minutes of driving, the Jeep began to stall. It's okay now that it's October 13, 2025, Monday, but a long weekend of fun turned into a scary and nerve-racking situation, so I had to use another car to move on and do errands.

Jeep lunched an OTA update on Friday October 10, 2025 in the afternoon (Los Angeles time area). I did the update when I came home and the next day when I started driving the car it abruptly stopped, signals were blinking including the engine system one and it was stating that I was experiencing an electric issue. It was also asking me to put the car in parking mode and I needed to shut off and restart the car to gain power again but it was stopping really quickly after again. I also have videos that I could not upload here if necessary to show exaclty what is happening.

Driving my JEEP on [XXX] and while attempting to turn at a busy intersection in Colonia, NJ the JEEP stopped while flashing the check engine light and put in park message. Both kids were in the JEEP which needless to say made the situation even more dangerous. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
As I was driving on the local road, the speed dropped to 0 mph and could not accelerate. The jeep shuts down in the middle of road. Put it back in the Park mode, restart, all lights including engine lights were ON. Drove another 100 ft and stop again and repeat the whole process. I was luckily within 2 miles of my home and was able to drag this back to home in 20 minutes with 5-7 stops. The other cars were honking and flashing as I keep stopping every 200 ft with no warning. Not sure if this is software issue as a lot of people are posting on facebook and other Jeep forums of having same problem between Friday 10/10/2025 and now. I towed the car back to the dealership on 10/13/25 and have no vehicle to drive for now.

The car stalled completely (‘Bricked’) while driving at approx 30mph. Everything cut off, power, steering, braked and the vehicle came to a stop in the road. I put the car in park and restarted it but the engine light has been on ever since. I took it to Jeep who told me to keep driving it unless it got worse and to call back in two days as they had a garage full of jeeps with the same problem.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
A recent computer upgrade was requested via the jeep computer system and initiated. The next day, while driving, the jeep kept losing power and the engine shut off multiple times. The check engine light went on after the loss of power but not before. There were no symptoms prior to the malfunction nor prior to the update that was initiated the night before. This was especially dangerous while highway driving. The jeep was brought to the dealership service department. The dealership service department stated they can not touch the jeep for this item until a fix is initiated by Stellantis.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE
I was driving the jeep in my neighborhood when the dashboard flickered and it told me to put the vehicle in park and press the "start" button (same message it would give when you get in the car and get ready to start it, except it was already running and I was driving). Vehicle seemed to lose some power assist features like steering. I wasn't going fast, so it was hard to tell exactly what switched off, but the brakes felt stiff as well. I was able to stop the Jeep, turned it off, and then back on... which *seemed* to resolve the issue but then I had a check engine light on. I have a small diagnostic tool so I plugged it in and it give me 3 codes about control modules experiencing an "improper wake up" (whatever that means). Thankful I was not on the interstate at highway speeds or it could have been very dangerous.

Vehicle lost acceleration and power while driving on my way to work. I was able to restart the Jeep and get it off the road. I was able to pull the OBD codes from the Jeep; P1E1D. I then remembered the last time I drove the Jeep, it prompted for a uconnect update (OTA). This morning was the first time driving it since that update.
