2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4XE Other or unknown Problems

“We aren't sure what happened exactly. We drove the car 10 minutes from my house to my work, and it started smoking when she parked. The car eventually caught fire and was completely destroyed, including damage to the structure it was parked next to. USAA has the car currently. My safety was put at risk because the car spontaneously caught fire and burned itself, and nearly burned the structure. There is no way to replicate the problem, as it's a slab of melted metal and plastic. The insurance company currently has the car. I don't know if the manufacturer has inpsected it. …”

“On January 6, 2025, one week after picking up the new vehicle from the car dealers lot I was driving on the Merritt parkway when suddenly the AEB light came on and then the traction control and engine light. The vehicle quickly lost power and even with my foot pressed fully on the gas pedal, it would not accelerate and slowed to 20 mph within seconds. Fortunately, there was no car behind me, and I was able to coast into a rest stop. If there were a vehicle behind me, it probably would’ve crashed into me when my car quickly decelerated. I turned off the car and then restarted it. …”

“This report involves a vehicle that was leased new from a dealership less a week ago. This vehicle has barely 200 miles on the odometer. While driving in electric mode, the engine completely shut off. The car shifted into park in the middle of traffic. I couldn’t shift it out of park — not even into neutral to push the car off the street. The screen was telling me to press the brake and the start button, as if I was starting the engine. But doing those things did nothing. I couldn’t start the engine, and I also couldn’t turn the car off. The infotainment system was still running. …”

“Last night, an incident occurred, which was previously reported to NHTSA. This morning, while driving to the dealership to address that incident, the vehicle's engine turned off while driving in hybrid/gas mode. The D was blinking on both the shifter and on the driver information panel. I was able to turn the shifter knob to put the vehicle into neutral, reverse, and park, but there was no change in vehicle behavior. Putting the shifter back in drive did nothing, and the car remained inoperable. All the while, the infotainment system remained on. …”
