“While at a stop light, with start/stop active, I released the brake, which should have reactivated the car. Instead, it shut down. I got a quick transmission service error on the dash. Once I put the car in park and turned it off and then on again, it functioned properly. I. The meantime I was being honked at from everyone missing the green light behind me.”

This has happened multiple times now and everything shuts down, power steering, etc goes out and I’m afraid it will cause a serious accident.This seems very dangerous.

“Instrument panel dash frozen. instrument dash panel frozen at the screen where it says start/stop press brake to turn the vehicle on, we can’t see how fast we’re going when driving.

“Vehicle dash board lights up with trailer brake assist and brakes on highway while going 60+ speed. It does it periodically with no warn and becoming more frequent as I have been driving. I have stressed to the dealership since Jan about this issue and the safety. The lane assist keeps turning off and tells me to get service. Dealership says it is fixed but two days later still acting up.”

NHTSA complaint #11590451, filed 2024-05

“The wagoneer while driving twice has shut off, gone into park, and emergency break turned on. The problem is shutting off on its own while driving. This could cause a wreck obviously if happens at a higher rate of speed. Thankfully both times I was at about 5-10mph and nobody was behind me.”
