Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
2024 Jeep Hybrid- one month into purchasing it in March of 2024, the engine completely blew. It was in the shop over a month waiting for a new engine. Last month, my charger would not charge the vehicle - they stated nothing was wrong and it was electrical in my own home which is incorrect considering we use the same outlet to charge another hybrid vehicle. This week, 200k jeeps (mine included) were recalled due to vehicles starting on fire from the charging. The recall states there is no fix at this time and to just not charge your vehicle. I paid much more for a hyrbid vehicle, and now unable to use it for safety reasons.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I am writing to raise a safety concern regarding the recurring “Service Hybrid Electric System” warning on my Jeep Wrangler 4xe. This warning light frequently appears during normal driving conditions, often without any discernible reason or noticeable performance issues. After consulting with my dealership, it was indicated that this issue is common, with no immediate or lasting resolution provided, even after multiple diagnostics. The primary concern I wish to highlight is the potential safety hazard this frequent warning creates. Due to its persistent and intermittent nature, drivers may become desensitized to the alert. This desensitization can lead to drivers either losing focus due to distraction from the warning or ignoring the warning entirely, assuming it is yet another false alert. In emergency situations where the hybrid system does indeed have a critical issue, this lack of attention could result in delayed reactions or inadequate responses, increasing the risk of accidents. Additionally, this issue can cause unnecessary anxiety and confusion, particularly when no definitive fault is identified, leaving the driver unsure of the vehicle’s actual safety status. This ambiguity poses a risk, especially in situations requiring immediate attention to a legitimate hybrid system malfunction. Given the number of reports from fellow Jeep Wrangler 4xe owners who are experiencing similar issues and the potential safety risks involved, I believe this warrants a thorough investigation by Jeep and its parent company to determine whether a safety recall is necessary. I would appreciate confirmation that this report will be reviewed and the appropriate actions taken to mitigate any risks associated with this warning system.
