Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“As I was driving onto the highway I reached to about 70 mph. The vehicle said “service electric system” on the dashboard and instantly the vehicle lost power and turned off. It then shifted from drive to park without warning as I was still on the highway. I pulled over safely without causing an accident and turned the vehicle completely off.”
NHTSA complaint #11667440, filed 2025-06“Vehicle does not start consistently and when it does it shows reading of “key fob has left the vehicle” when key fob is actually in the car. Car has been towed and would not start. Dealer duplicated this issue and Stellantis says currently no fix. I just park in my garage and hoping they will do the right thing and repurchase and replace my vehicle.”
NHTSA complaint #11616304, filed 2024-09“Vehicle is subject to Recalls 68C (Fire Risk) and 78C (Loss of Propulsion). Manufacturer states remedy is 'Not Yet Available.' I am instructed not to charge the battery and to park away from structures. I cannot safely park the vehicle at my home or use the electric propulsion I am paying for. The vehicle presents an immediate fire hazard and risk of catastrophic engine failure on public roads.”
NHTSA complaint #11703415, filed 2025-12“My jeep is a 2024, with just about 12,000 miles. On Monday, May 5, 2025. My Air Conditioner stopped working. It was only blowing out warm air. Now I’m told there’s some kind of AC leak and it will take 2-5 days for parks and a full day to repair. After reading reviews. This is a known issue with 2022 jeeps. This needs to be an issue with 2024. This is my 3rd jeep and I’ve never had issues like this.”
NHTSA complaint #11659409, filed 2025-05“As I drove on the interstate, a warning came up saying that my vehicle speed may be limited. Almost immediately after the engine shut off completely and the gearbox locked. The dash said to press the brake and the on/off button, but when I tried it wouldn't work and a notice came up on the screen that I couldn't do that because I wasn't in park. My engine would not turn back on, and I had to coast to the side of the rode.”
