“The drive indicator suddenly started flashing, the red wrench light came on, the check engine light came on. I pulled over a little on the road and put the jeep in park. I was unable to move the vehicle. It would not come out of gear. I had to turn the jeep off. Then restarted it and was able to get it into gear however the check engine light remained on.”
NHTSA complaint #11697816, filed 2025-11“I stopped at a stop light and the car shut down and an error display to service Transmission and the gear shift would not move. A few seconds later the error changed to “Park Brake Auto Engaged Press Brake + Push Switch to Release” I did this several times. After about 10 minutes the vehicle started with a service error message stil on the dash.”
NHTSA complaint #11574871, filed 2024-03“The engine began sounding like a diesel and pushing the gas pedal made the car surge/lurch. Then, while driving in rush hour traffic, the car went into what I now know is called “limp mode” where I could not accelerate and I received a warning that told me to pull the car over.”
NHTSA complaint #11648165, filed 2025-03“Just leaving the parking garage after work, I was exiting and the my jeep wrangler just turned off. Light flashed service transmission and shift vehicle park. Once I shifted the vehicle to park and tried to start nothing happened. After about 5 mins and blocking all traffic trying to leave the parking garage my jeep started. Not sure what’s up but if this happens at freeway speed it could be dangerous.”
NHTSA complaint #11573446, filed 2024-02“While driving in electric mode, sometimes I would lose power. One example is on the freeway while cruising at freeway speeds. I noticed my speed decreases and i have to press the accelerator pedal more than normal. Even after depressing it more than normal, the gauge on the battery power wont move and the speed continues to decrease (charge level can be at 50%, 80%, or lower). It also happens to me after stops at stop sign or intersection. …”
