ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
While driving the car shut down. We had to come to a stop to put it in park to restart. Thankfully we were in a a parking lot after one incidence and once on a side road. We would be in a very dangerous situation if we had been on the highway. Our dealer service center said it might be a software update issue but they are not sure. These incidents did occur immediately after a software update. The check engine light did come on a stayed on after the shut down.

The vehicle did an over the air update once we pulled into a restaurant. While driving home after the update the vehicle stopped in the middle of the road and had no power. The dash said to move the shifter to park and all the warning lights including the check engine light is on. We turned power off and back on and was able to go 1 mile home before it shut off In The driveway with all the same lights and no power.

Immediately after updating the UConnect software in my parking lot, I drove away and my Jeep lost power while driving. Engine shut off and said "Shift to P to Start." Had to shift to park and restart just to get moving again. Was barely able to get it to the dealership right afterwards and then it happened again while in motion. Happened again and again in the dealership parking lot.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
A software update appears on the screen. I hit update and got out of the Jeep. A number of hours later I started up the Jeep and drove away, about a mile down the road while driving the Jeep entirely shutdown. The motor was off and I had not control. The dash told me to put it in park and update. I was luckily in a spot where I could just stop in the middle of the road, I put it in park restarted but now with the check engine light on. I was able to limp home. It was very scary as if it was a more major road I could have caused an accident.

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Jeep pushed a software update on 4xe models on 10-10-2025. Today on 10-11-25 I pulled out of my driveway drove less than 100 feet and lost power. The check engine light came on vehicle said to switch to park and start the vehicle. This happens four times trying to turn around in a 2 block radius to get home. With the vehicle parked I turned it on kept my foot on the brake vehicle in drive and it continues to occur. Dealership said they had several 4xe towed in and multiple calls. Jeep customer service claims they are unaware of the issue. My 2024 Jeep is not drivable.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
After an over-the-air update of the Uconnect system on 10/10/25 the vehicle repeatedly lost propulsion. In each instance I abruptly had absolutely no acceleration, the gear indicator on the dash started flashing, the power mode indicator (electric/hybrid/esave) disappeared, an alert said shift into park and press the brake + start button, and the check engine light and red wrench lights came on. I was still able to steer and brake with power steering and brakes for maybe 30 seconds before those went out too. After putting it into park and pressing the brake and start button it started back up and I could drive it normally for a little bit, but it happened two more times on a 1.5 mi drive. This is a serious safety issue. I read the check engine code which was P1E1D

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Jeep pushed a Uconnect update on 10/10/2025 which I installed, caused my vehicle to shut off completely during driving on a main road shortly after leaving my home. All engine and dash lights came on, coult not take the vehicle out of drive. The shifter was stuck. I turned the vehicle off then moved shifter back to park and started it again. It continued to do this every few feet. This is extremely dangerous and could cause major accidents to happen.

On 10/10/2025 at approximately 11:00 pm CT I was driving my 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe on a four lane divided highway at 70 MPH. During the drive a check engine light popped on solid and three seconds later the vehicle killed power and the steering wheel locked up. The Check Engine light was solid and NOT blinking. 911 was called as this incident occurred at the crest of a hill and I was still partially on the roadway. This was following an Over the Air UConnect Box update at 5:00 pm CT. The vehicle was able to be moved to the shoulder and was towed to the service center.
