My vehicle reduces speed while driving. Occasionally a red turtle will pop up on the dashboard and it just reduces speed. This has gapped on many occasions. The dealership doesn’t know why this is happening. It has been in the shop for a month and two days with more than one problem. This vehicle is very unsafe and dangerous to drive. Mechanically it’s NO GOOD.
On XXX I picked up my vehicle from Sames Bastrop Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram ([XXX]) after a six-week repair visit (XXX). The dealer's paperwork states two open NHTSA recalls were completed on this visit: 26V-141 (liftgate hinge cover) and 26V-262 (instrument panel cluster software). The same day, when I started the vehicle, the instrument panel cluster did not illuminate. While driving in my neighborhood at low speed, the vehicle lost acceleration, the brakes became unresponsive for a period, and a warning message instructed me to pull over immediately before the vehicle would shut down. I brought the vehicle to a stop safely and it allowed me to turn off the engine at that point. I restarted it and parked it, and have not driven it since. On XXX I checked NHTSA's recall lookup tool using my VIN and both recall 26V-141 and 26V-262 still show as incomplete, despite the dealer's repair order stating both were completed during this same visit. This is the second serious control-related failure with this vehicle. On XXX the vehicle would not shut off and could not be shifted into any gear, requiring a tow to the same dealer for repair (RO #XXX). No crash or injury occurred in either incident.

The contact owns a 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the vehicle unexpectedly shifted to reverse(R) and rolled backwards unintendedly at approximately 10 MPH. The brake pedal was pumped several times to stop the vehicle. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated, and the messages “Collision Protection OFF”, “Service ABS” and “Traction Control OFF” were displayed during the failure. The dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 31,057.
I am filing this complaint because this vehicle has had multiple intermittent safety-related electrical/software and driver-assistance problems, and the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. On multiple occasions, the vehicle has powered on but would not shift out of Park into Drive. The most recent time, I was leaving work and the vehicle would not let me shift into Drive. I was stuck there for about two hours and had to call for a tow. When the tow truck arrived, the vehicle suddenly allowed me to shift into Drive again and I was able to drive home. This is very concerning because the vehicle can leave someone stranded without warning. The vehicle has also falsely detected hazards or forward-collision situations several times while driving, even though there was no nearby vehicle, pedestrian, object, or anything else that should have triggered a warning. On multiple occasions, the vehicle has abruptly applied automatic emergency braking and slammed on the brakes for no apparent reason while traveling at 30-50 MPH. I am very concerned this could cause a crash, especially if another vehicle is behind me. The vehicle has also had charging and range display problems on multiple occasions. For example, last week it was charged to about 80% and then driven about 50 miles, but the displayed range/state of charge did not properly decrease or update until the vehicle was turned off and restarted about an hour later. These issues have continued despite prior dealer updates and recall work. The manufacturer has been notified, and the vehicle is being brought back to an authorized dealer for inspection. I do not know yet whether the dealer or manufacturer has been able to reproduce or confirm the problems. The issues appear to involve the electrical/software systems, shift/park function, battery/range display, forward collision warning, and automatic emergency braking systems.
While maneuvering at low speed into my garage, the vehicle accelerated forward beyond my intended input and in a manner inconsistent with a controlled parking maneuver. This resulted in famage to the front end of the vehicle, a tool bench containing equipment and the wall of the garage (interior and exterior).
Vehicle accelerated after foot removed from pedal causing the vehicle to strike the inside of garage wall.s
Supplemental Update to Complaint No. 11672058 This is an update to my July 8, 2025 complaint regarding a brake booster failure on my 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S. The vehicle has remained in dealer custody at South Pointe Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram in Tulsa, Oklahoma since June 28, 2025 and is still out of service. Although a brake booster replacement was installed, the dealer has not identified a root cause and has not confirmed that the braking system is safe or reliable. The original defect involved a complete loss of braking while the vehicle displayed a Ready to Drive message, creating a severe safety risk. No assurance has been provided that this condition cannot recur. The issue appears to involve braking and electronic control systems, but no effective resolution has been documented. Due to the unresolved nature of a total brake failure and the continued inability to return the vehicle to safe operation, I am submitting this update for safety defect tracking and potential investigation. The vehicle remains unavailable for use due to ongoing safety concerns.
2024 Jeep Wagoneer EV has recurring electrical/propulsion faults with turtle (reduced power/limp mode) and wrench warning light, causing sudden loss of acceleration and reduced power. This has happened while driving on the highway, making the vehicle feel unsafe and unreliable; I was nearly in an accident when it would not accelerate. Vehicle has been to the dealer at least five times and has been out of service since 12/01/2025 with no permanent fix.
this vehicle has locked my wife inside the car, it has been unable to be shut off on multiple occasions, the warning lights are constantly on, the vehicle slows down and turns off, and most recently it accelerated on its own when my wife was applying the brakes and almost crashed while trying to remain in control of the vehicle. We leased this vehicle brand new 7 months ago. This make and model is widely known to be unsafe and neither Jeep nor Stellantis are doing anything about it. I cannot even get a call back from either of their customer service departments created due to this models issues.
I was stopped at a red light on a busy road. When it turned green and i accelerated the car would not move. It jerked and the dash lit up lioke a Christmas tree. A big red turtle came up on the dash and I was able to move but only 5-7 miles per hour. I drove the 8 -9 mile home at only 7 miles an hour while being honked at and near misses from the heavy trraffic. The vehiocle was towed to the dealership and I am being told that the manufacturer is aware of the problem but there is no current fix. They may actually try to return the vcehicle to me as is, but I do not feel safe driving it. On a side note, tis is the 5th time the vehile has been in the shop in the 6 months we have owned it.
1. Brake Booster Failure: On [XXX], my Wagoneer S experienced a brake booster failure, rendering the brakes inoperable. The vehicle displayed multiple error messages but still showed a misleading “Ready to Drive” message, falsely indicating it was safe to operate. The SUV was towed to SouthPointe Jeep in Tulsa on June 28, 2025. I was informed the required brake booster part is backordered until at least July 21, 2025, leaving me without a safe vehicle for nearly a month. 2. Uconnect System Freezing During Backup Camera Use: Approximately 70% of the time, the Uconnect system freezes shortly after starting the vehicle, then reboots. Critically, this often happens while backing up using the rear-view camera — the screen freezes mid-maneuver, creating an extreme hazard for collisions with pedestrians or other vehicles. 3. Other Ongoing Problems: Persistent door rattling and poor build quality. Intermittent braking response or acceleration hesitation. Multiple software glitches, contributing to system instability.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
