Potential Consequences:

Was driving on the highway when the parking break randomly engaged. This happened twice in 1 day and was followed by the alert "4WD System Unavailable Service Required" on dash. Took to dealership and was told its the "PTU" and the part is on a 6month backorder. My vin is not part of the recall and was told this is a very common problem with Jeep and just to keep driving it considering they cannot get the part anyways. The cost to fix it will be around $4,000 when the part does come in

Defect Description:

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

We were notified earlier this year regarding recall number 25V-011. When we checked then, a repair was being investigated. It has been several months and the recall is still categorized as "Recall incomplete, remedy not yet available." We also tried to identify with the local dealer the possible severity of the failure but could not get a definite answer. According to the recall, the fault could cause " an unexpected loss of motive power or loss of PARK function while stationary" with no further explanation. The risk is listed as "a vehicle crash without prior warning". Would the loss of motive power be the simple failure to transfer the engine power to the wheels? Or more severe option of one or more drive shafts becoming disconnected and causing the vehicle to roll when it contacts the road? If so, the vehicle is not safe to be driven at highway speeds. The local dealer was unwilling to escalate our concerns or provide any assurance of safe operation on the highway. So far, we have not noticed any issues related to the recall but have not driven significantly outside the local community.
