[Incident Description & System Failure] On XXX, at approximately 30,340 miles, hybrid propulsion and charging system completely failed while the vehicle was in motion. The vehicle suffered a sudden "Loss of Motive Power" and stalled completely on a public road. The vehicle was towed immediately and is currently inspection upon request. [Safety Risks Experienced] The vehicle suffered a catastrophic power failure and stalled suddenly in the middle of a public road. This created an immediate hazard for a severe rear-end collision. Furthermore, according to the manufacturer's official Safety…
This recall notice (26V-562) is the third time that Jeep has provided such a notice for precisely the same problem. On two previous occasions (24V-413 and 26V-051), the car was returned to the dealer and work was performed. Although Jeep appears to be following the guidelines for discovery and communication of a safety defect, the conclusion here is that the subject defect occurred in the design phase or in the assembly process at the factory, and, despite two recalls and the passage of at least four years, the problem has not been resolved on a reasonably timely basis. The traveling public…
The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4XE. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle repeatedly stalled in traffic and failed to accelerate. The driver was forced to frequently pull over to the shoulder. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, and the technician removed the terrain switch; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was then taken to another dealer. The contact stated that the check engine warning light illuminated during one of the failures.

I took my Jeep to an authorized dealership to have the safety recall performed for the engine shutdown issue. Before this recall work was…
My vehicle has multiple software and electrical issues that Jeep has been unable to diagnose or repair, and there is currently no recall addressing these problems. One of the most serious issues is that the vehicle will randomly switch the display language from English to Italian while I am driving. When this happens, the speedometer changes from miles per hour (MPH) to kilometers per hour (KPH), making it difficult to know my speed without pulling over and manually changing the language back to English. This creates an unnecessary safety concern. Additionally, the automatic door lock feature…
The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35 MPH, the lights on the instrument panel became dark and the vehicle stalled. The failure had occurred on several occasions. The vehicle was taken back to the residence; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.
I just experienced a 2nd engine stall event. I was driving thru a neighborhood at 25 mph in 5th gear, lifted off the gas pedal as I approached a 90 degree uphill turn, and in the middle of the turn (approx 20 mph) the engine stalled and I lost all propulsion. I retired from Stellantis after 16 years working as a contract transmission calibrator, so I am very familiar with what happened. When I lifted off the gas pedal the engine attempted to enter decel fuel shut off (dfso). I was watching the real time gas mileage and right before the corner I saw the mpg approaching 99 mpg (a clear…
Front collison warning icon illuminated on the dash. Settings were changed. Temperature changed from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Back up camera lines no longer showing up. CarPlay glitches. Mechanic did a reset a month ago and it came back on 2 weeks later.
I am submitting this complaint regarding a serious safety-related failure involving my 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe. I purchased the vehicle used with approximately 15,000 miles and was informed the previous owners leased it and rarely used it. At approximately 40,000 miles, despite completing all recalls in a timely manner, the vehicle experienced the exact type of hybrid system failure a recall was intended to prevent. The issue began when the hybrid system failed and left the vehicle unsafe to operate. Upon startup, only accessory power activated and the engine would not start. A full power…
Went to turn left at barely 5mph and steering locked up with my front wheels pushed outside of wheel well (driver wheel, passenger is facing in), causing a collision. Steering wheel won’t turn at all now.
I would like to file a complaint against Jeep. I drive a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4XE with 16,000 miles. While driving to the Store, the electronic parking brake engaged while driving. This caused braking system damage. Jeep / Manufacturer are refusing to reimburse me. The total cost was: $9,129.26. This effected the Actuators, Brake Calipers, Rear Rotors, and Brake Pads. This is not normal wear and tear, however a safety-related defect.
