Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
After having possession of our Jeep Wrangler 4XE for less than 6 months we have had to bring it in for engine issues twice - on our second visit we were informed that it was likely unsafe to drive as they could not guarantee it would not stall out while being driven. After much research it was found that there has been litigation for this same issue in at least one other state with multiple plaintiffs where FCA settled and paid out a large sum to consumers. I no longer feel safe driving this vehicle as multiple repairs have been necessary so far and there seems to be no guarantee that it will not happen in the future. A car stalling (this has been reported at as high as 70 miles per hour) during operation is a safety concern for myself and of all others driving on the road. We were informed that this could happen anytime after the check engine light illuminates, or as it turns on in many cases. The fact that there has not been a large scale recall, and that we were not informed of the issue when obtaining the vehicle is a huge safety hazard.

I have had it to dealer they can’t verify concern, contacted Jeep last week still no response back. This is a on going concern with owners online since 2012 it needs to be addressed and repaired. In fact some type of recall for this concern should be addressed as these vehicles are unsafe under these conditions.

It shut down and the "D" light on the gear shift was blinking. I had to quickly try to get to the right lane, without any engine. After 3 tentatives, when I turned it back on, the engine light was on.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
Over the past few months there has been a violent shimmy in the front end when traveling over 65 mph. It occurs when turning or going over bumps at highway speeds. I have demonstrated the local dealer. They have made several attempts to fix the issue without success. They have adjusted the tires, alignment and replaced the front stabilizer as well as checked other front end components. At this point they have washed their hands of the issue. Suggesting that I contact the dealer I bought it from. I wanted to create an official complaint here.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I have no technical no-how with cars so I will describe as best I can. We have a brand new 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe--bought it one month ago--and two weeks in, while driving, the check engine light came on. We were out of town so called the local dealer but they could not see us for three weeks. So we researched the issue and thought it could be a loose gas cap etc. We did some trouble shooting but nothing changed. Then, while driving, the entire dash lit up with various warnings, including the hybrid warning, and it just shut down. We were next to a parking lot and coasted in. Through a series of actions we were able to get it driving again and made it to another dealership. When we arrived all signals were gone and they could find no trouble codes to check. We were able to drive back home and we thought maybe it was the loose gas cap issue. We would have taken it into the dealership as a precaution, but service appts are weeks out. And it drove fine for several days. Then our daughter was driving it on an extremely busy and dangerous road. Luckily she'd just turned off it into our neighborhood--but she was still driving at a decent speed--and all of a sudden all the warning lights came on again, including the hybrid signal, and the car completely shut down on her. Stopped mid-drive and mid-road. We now have had it towed to the dealership. We have also read all the similar stories now with Jeep 4xes and have serious concerns about the extent of this issue and thus the safety of the vehicle. The dealership can't look at it for weeks, but we have already contacted sales to see what they can do. I feel like it could take months to work out what is happening here--especially with service backups--and I do not feel safe with any of our family members doing a back and forth on this until we find out that a serious recall in underway.
