I was driving the Jeep on Route 35 in NJ when all of a sudden, the car lost power, jerked forward thrusting be towards the windshield. The "D" on the gear shift started blinking and the check engine light went on. The dashboard message indicated something along the lines that I had to put the car in parking "P". The car behind me beeped and almost rear ended me as it's a fast road and my car slowed dramatically and unexpectedly. Ultimately, I was able to glide into a parking lot on the side street and called the tow truck. The dealership said that a faulty OTA was sent out which caused the issue and that it has happened to many people. There were no symptoms or warning lights prior to the event. The dealership updated the vehicle and said it was safe to drive but I am not convinced based on the experience of others, which I have read in forums, who have had the same thing happen multiple times even after having the dealership update installed. Apparently, this OTA issue was widespread.

Oct 10, 2025, I received an OTA update on my Jeep Wrangler. After the installation, I left my child's school on the way to dinner. Maybe a half mile into the drive, I received numerous warnings on the display screen and quickly after that, the vehicle lost all power. Hybrid system unavailable as well as the gas motor. Power steering, brakes and stability control also gone. Was able to get to the side of the road but it nearly stranded me on an elevated 2 lane road over a dam near Cherry Creek Reservoir in Greenwood Village, CO. Was able to reset the system after some troubleshooting and limp the vehicle home. Made an appointment and took it in for service the following Tuesday. The dealer has tried to remedy the situation but ran into the same loss of power after another update. I do not trust this vehicle with the safety of my family in mind. Jeep/Stellantis has yet to notify it's customers of this potential safety hazard nor have they communicated/acknowledged it publicly to raise awareness. It could save lives and something needs to be done. There are hundreds if not thousands of impacted owners and some might not even know yet. Unacceptable for Jeep, Stellantis and quite frankly... the NHTSA.... for not taking the appropriate steps to prevent potential accidents. Your entire mission is safety and not a peep from any party.

Then restarted now CEL is on but vehicle started and again 2 min later same problem no power had to coast to side of road, shut vehicle down and restart. This happen a several times one time I also lost power steering. I was just lucky enough to be on side roads and not the highway. The vehicle totally loses all propulsion and you have zero power to the vehicle and also lost power steering

Had an issue with a service charging system, and service hybrid system on my 2025 jeep wrangler 4xe that I’ve had for 7 mos. Under 10k miles. When checked, I was told it was a connector for the ac compressor, had a bent pin. On back order. 2 weeks + later, called to bring it in. The repair was a 16 hr repair, which I wasn’t notified of, service agent said tech completed it in 9 as I waited a total of 12 hours at the dealership. Was not told the eac and hv cable needed to be replaced. A few days later, check engine light came on. Phoned dealer, told to bring it in. Did so and service agent mentioned code about evap. Then, told me it required an update. Drove for 2 hours, check engine light came back on. Took jeep back and got a loaner. Told it was a purge valve solenoid that had to be ordered. Issue with the evap that they didn’t address the first time. The dealer phoned days later to say it was fixed, and when I arrived, I didn’t even make it out of the service lane before the check engine light came on again.

My vehicle did a software update Friday, October 10 10th after the update the vehicle went into a limp mode. I had to put the vehicle in park. Turn the vehicle off. Turn the vehicle back on immediately a check engine light came on. After the incident, the vehicle would only operate for about 10 minutes and I would have to repeat the same steps in order to get me safely home. Basically left me stranded with no power steering no warning that the vehicle even turned off just simply stopped in traffic in some cases and I was losing control.
