2025 Jeep Wagoneer S Brakes Problems

“I'm writing to report serious ongoing safety issues with my vehicle. Initial Service Visit (September 2024): I brought my vehicle in for two issues: Clicking noise when braking Trunk randomly closing on its own, which had hit my wife multiple times while loading groceries The dealership replaced the disconnects but stated they could not fix the trunk issue. …”

“10/14/25: Started car and put it in reverse, slow to reverse. Then tried to pull forward, very sluggish with a delay, then when I pushed accelerator a little more, it took off and then it wouldn’t stop. I had to slam on breaks to stop. My head jerked forward and back and hit the headrest. My son was pushed forcefully into his seatbelt to stop the momentum. I turned on/ off car and then started to accelerate again thinking maybe something I did was wrong- but ‘felt that the car was off’. …”

“While driving on the interstate, the vehicle went into “limp” mode and showed a turtle on my screen. From there, my vehicle decelerated drastically from 80 to 40 and did not allow me to accelerate. The screen showed a message that stated the systems were shutting down. My vehicle continued to decelerate as I tried to get to a safe spot out of the interstate lanes. After “resetting” the vehicle and waiting approx 20 min, the vehicle turned on as if nothing happened. This has happened 3 separate times in the span of a month.”

“The first time this happened I was pulling into a parking lot and all service lights started flickering and it said to turn turn off car immediately as I was driving, I pulled into the nearest parking lot and it just stopped driving. The second time, which was Friday, April 17, 2026 I was driving down a busy road and all lights started flashing, the big NO ASB brakes flashing and I had no brakes. It was terrifying. Thankfully I ended up going down a hill onto flat ground and was able to pull into a gas station and get stopped by the curb. …”

“While traveling on the interstate at approximately 70 mph, I pressed the accelerator pedal to increase speed. Instead of accelerating, the vehicle suddenly jerked, and the wheels locked up as though the brakes engaged on their own. I continued pressing the accelerator, but the vehicle rapidly decelerated without responding to throttle input. The most concerning part was that the brake lights did not illuminate while the vehicle slowed down, which created an extreme safety hazard because drivers behind me had no warning that I was slowing. …”
