2024 Jeep Wrangler Speed Control & Cruise Problems

Vehicle was in reverse on an incline, in a driveway. The throttle was unresponsive and the vehicle began to roll forward down hill. After a few moments and, without warning, the throttle suddenly jumped to near full response, quickly accelerating the vehicle in reverse, and it was necessary to slam on the brakes. This behavior of extremely low throttle response for an unpredictable duration, followed by extremely high throttle response, has happened at least 5 or 6 times. This has happened in forward as well as in reverse. The timing of this is problem is unpredictable and the dealer informed me they can't do anything about the problem if they cant' reproduce it.

Jeep shakes violently when going above 50 mph

Year: 2024 Make & Model: Jeep Wrangler 4-door 4xe Body Style: Sahara 4x4 VIN: [XXX] On October 14, 2025, I began to drive my car home. After the use of the brakes, while I was pulling out of a large parking lot, the car functionally went into neutral, the “D” on PRNDL display began to blink. The brakes worked. I pulled over, put the car into Park and then into Drive again. Still, no change. I turned the car on and off and put it into Drive and the car began to drive normally, until I reached a stop light, exiting the parking lot. Then, the same thing occurred. The “D” began blinking and the car was unresponsive to the accelerator. I turned off and re-started the car. Again, it drove fine. The “D” was lit, but didn’t blink. I was driving very slowly and then went down a hill. As soon as I tapped the brakes, the same thing occurred again. I was only 6 miles or less from the dealership. So, after re-starting the car for the 3rd or 4th time, I learned that using the parking brake did not disrupt the car and the accelerator continued to work. I drove to the dealership’s service department and used the parking brake when I needed to slow down. Today is 10/18/2025. I received a call back on 10/16 and none since. Today, I drove out to the service department and talked directly to a manager, who was vague on the car’s status.

Driving on our way to a JEEP INVASION (local). We had our 3 children in the back seat. The jeep was traveling about 45 mph and the accelerator stopped working. Thankfully we were not on a freeway and no one was behind us. We had to pull over and turn the jeep off and then back on. It happened 3 times on the way there. We took it into the local dealership and they ran a test on it. We were told it happened because of the UConnect update performed over the weekend. We are currently trying to get out of our lease. We only have 16k miles on it and have taken it into the dealership 5+ times due to issues similar to this. But we have never had to worry about our safety the previous times. It has become a driving risk for us and we do not feel comfortable taking our children in it anymore. I feel like the vehicle shutting down felt the same as the brake system not working while we were driving. We had the 4xe battery replaced in the past year because we were left stranded in a parking lot because the vehicle would not turn on.

My car stalled 16 times on [XXX] due to unknown issues. The first time happened on [XXX] . Then multiple times driving from the first location to my residence in East Quogue and then to the dealer. The car would be in drive and suddenly stall, saying there was an issue with the hybrid motor. It also had multiple engine errors pop up. The car is only 15 months old. The idea that it would stall on a highway is very dangerous. I had to pull over, put the car in park, and sometimes it would power on. Otherwise it would take two to three attempts to start the car to continue driving. It was an extremely hazardous situation. It looks to be a software update error on behalf of Stellantis. This is really scary and unacceptable. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

As I was driving on the local road, the speed dropped to 0 mph and could not accelerate. The jeep shuts down in the middle of road. Put it back in the Park mode, restart, all lights including engine lights were ON. Drove another 100 ft and stop again and repeat the whole process. I was luckily within 2 miles of my home and was able to drag this back to home in 20 minutes with 5-7 stops. The other cars were honking and flashing as I keep stopping every 200 ft with no warning. Not sure if this is software issue as a lot of people are posting on facebook and other Jeep forums of having same problem between Friday 10/10/2025 and now. I towed the car back to the dealership on 10/13/25 and have no vehicle to drive for now.

I performed an Over-the-Air update on the car. When we got in to drive it about 10 minutes later, after driving for about 30 seconds, the car completely died. All the gages went haywire, it said traction control system needed service, the check engine light came on, and to shift to Park to continue. Once shifted into Park, the gear selected would lock. This happened while in the middle of the road and could have easily caused an accident. When you turned the car off, and back on, it would do the same thing again after about 30 seconds. This happened 3 times until i called Stallantis service and waited for a tow truck. The car has been at the dealer since Friday night. They called me Saturday to tell me that there were no hybrid technicians on staff and I’d have to wait until Monday for more information.

Vehicle suddenly dropped in speed. Only able to go about 10 mph. CEL and received Electronic Stability Control error. Was able to get car home and CEL message eventually off. Drove it again but found that it would shut down about every 10 miles. Would have to stop the car, shut it off, then could drive it another 10 miles. And the CEL did come back on.
