“I was driving my 2025 4xE wrangler to work and throttle shut off on me and I wasn’t able to move. Stuck in the middle of busy traffic and stranded. I had to call a tow truck to take it to the dealership.”
NHTSA complaint #11693168, filed 2025-10“Pulling into parking spot and lightly touched accelerator and jeep launched over the curb and slammed into a metal door and concrete wall. Unexplainable reason for sudden acceleration and unable to break in time.called dealership but they have had no other complaints.no vehicle has not been inspected damage is cosmetic.no system warning before it happened.”
NHTSA complaint #11694292, filed 2025-10“There was an over the air updated to something in the vehicle and now hybrid battery range is much lower. Also, have seen multiple complaints that the vehicle will not turn on or stalls while driving creating dangerous conditions on the road while driving. I have not attempted to drive on the road after seeing other complaints concerning this update. Vehicle was perfectly fine before update. This is completely unacceptable, essentially using drivers as test dummys for untested and unproven software updates.”
