2025 Jeep Wagoneer S

The vehicle is unsafe; it freezes while driving leaving one unable to navigate in any way. Everything ceases at once - nothing works, you can't put it into P/D/R/N, it won't accellerate or turn off. It just freezes, won't drive, won't turn off, completely locks up either while parked (the safer version) or while driving (completely unsafe, imagine being in a moving vehicle with no control at all?). Please don't ignore this - look at social media where hundreds, if not thousands of people are reporting the same exact event. It has happened to me alone 3x. Jeep claims they have no fix for it yet they aren't recalling the vehicle which is reckless. Please make them accountable and keep our highways safe!

I leased a new 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S (electric) on 11/10/2025. Since taking delivery, the vehicle has repeatedly and unpredictably disabled critical driver-assistance and safety systems while in motion, and has on multiple occasions warned that it would shut down while driving. Specific safety-related incidents: On multiple occasions, the vehicle's forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, lane assist, and Auto Hold have all intermittently and simultaneously disabled themselves while driving, with no warning and no ability to re-enable them except by fully powering the vehicle off and on, or disconnecting the 12V battery. This has occurred repeatedly since November 2025 and continues as of July 2026. On July 10, 2026, the instrument cluster displayed "Vehicle speed may be limited" and "Stop Safely, Vehicle Will Shut Off Soon" while I was driving. The vehicle's speed dropped to near zero. I was not near a charging station and the battery was not depleted. I performed a manual 12V battery disconnect myself to restore function and drove the vehicle home, rather than wait for a tow truck, because I was concerned about being stranded. On May 21, 2026, at 6,013 miles, the vehicle displayed a "Service Electric Vehicle System" warning and limited my speed to approximately 5 MPH while driving, with an estimated 205 miles of range remaining and the battery at 70%. I have also experienced at least two complete breakdowns while driving during evening rush-hour traffic (May and June 2026), requiring roadside recovery. The vehicle has been in for dealership service at least 7 times since delivery, with under 5,000 miles on it as of March 2026. One single repair (February 28 – May 27, 2026) kept the vehicle out of service for approximately 79 consecutive days. The selling dealer has confirmed it employs only one technician qualified to service electric vehicles. I have since obtained the vehicle's pre-delivery service history and found that the dealership performed

When driving the vehicle the on board screen randomly shuts down and restarts while in motion. During this process it changes all of the driving settings and turns off the automatic braking, and the vehicle accelerates with out touching the accelerator. This has happened numerous times and it has been to the dealership 4 times with out any changes.

I recently purchased this vehicle and had possession of it for only three days before it developed a serious braking-related issue. While driving, the ABS warning light illuminated, indicating that the anti-lock braking system required service. At the same time, the vehicle became noticeably more difficult to stop, requiring increased braking distance and significantly earlier brake application than normal. The failed component is currently at the dealership and is available for inspection. The illuminated ABS warning also disabled several advanced driver assistance features, including the collision avoidance and automatic emergency braking systems. As a result, important safety features designed to help prevent or mitigate collisions were unavailable while the warning lights were present. This malfunction created a significant safety risk to me, my passengers, and other motorists. On multiple occasions, the vehicle required substantially more distance to stop, increasing the risk of a rear-end collision, particularly if another driver stopped suddenly or cut in front of my vehicle. Because the collision avoidance and assisted braking systems were also disabled, there was no electronic backup available to help reduce the risk of an accident. The vehicle has been inspected by the selling dealership, where technicians confirmed the problem after the vehicle failed two separate diagnostic tests. The vehicle remains at the dealership awaiting replacement parts and repair. It has now been out of service longer than I have actually been able to drive it since purchasing it. The ABS warning light and related service messages appeared before the braking performance deteriorated. To the best of my knowledge, no crash or injuries occurred, but the defect significantly increased stopping distance and created an unsafe driving condition. Based on the dealer's diagnosis, the issue has been confirmed and is awaiting repair.

Incident

The vehicle's automatic emergency braking (AEB) / forward collision avoidance system activates without cause and brings the vehicle to a sudden, complete stop in the middle of an intersection. This has occurred on at least two occasions. In each instance I was making a left turn at a four-way intersection while an oncoming vehicle was also turning left — a common, non-conflicting turn geometry. The system falsely interpreted the opposing left-turning vehicle as an imminent frontal collision, displayed a "crash detected" message, and applied full braking, stopping my vehicle in live cross-traffic in the middle of the intersection. The first occurrence was on XXX, at the intersection of [XXX], while I was turning left from [XXX] [XXX]. The second occurrence was on XXX, at the intersection of [XXX], while turning left from [XXX] onto [XXX]. Both intersections are equipped with dual (two) opposing left-turn lanes, and in each case the false activation occurred as oncoming traffic in the opposing left-turn lanes was simultaneously turning left. This is a serious safety hazard. An unexpected, complete stop in the middle of an active intersection exposes the vehicle to being struck from behind by following traffic and to side-impact (T-bone) collisions from cross-traffic. The braking is abrupt and unanticipated, and no obstacle is actually present in the vehicle's path. No crash or injury has resulted to date. The defect has been reported to the selling/servicing dealer, Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram 104th (Thornton, CO), and is the subject of an open Stellantis case, #XXX. The vehicle has been taken to the dealer for this concern. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate the forward collision avoidance / automatic emergency braking system on this vehicle and model.

Powertrain Modules Software Update Customers may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination and the vehicle may SYMPTOM: exhibit/set one or more of the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs): ● P1E18-00 - Internal Control Module Electronic Park Performance. ● P1625-00 - Park Pawl System Failure. ● P1626-00 - Park Pawl Motor Stuck. NOTE: If DTCs P1E25-00, P1625-00 or P1626-00 are active, the vehicle will stay in READY mode since the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) is not able to confirm if the park pawl is engaged, and the vehicle will be secured. ● P0A78-00 - Drive Motor A Inverter Performance. ● P0A79-00 - Drive Motor B Inverter Performance. Customers may also comment on one or more of the following: ● Vehicle is not shutting off and draining the 12V battery. ● Unable to start the vehicle.

Cluster Assembly When the technician connects to the vehicle via Witech, they observe Stored and/or Pending DTC in the IPC for KM49, LB, KM74 Programs. The instrument cluster should not be replaced based solely on the presence of stored or pending DTCs in the IPC. Replacement should only be considered if the stored or pending DTC becomes active during the troubleshooting and diagnostic process.
