ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
While driving a vehicle swerved into my lane, to avoid hitting them I tapped my brakes, upon tapping my breaks the Jeep lost propulsion and it felt as though my brakes lost power as well. I had to coast into a parking lot where I didn’t even make it to a spot and had to be towed to the dealer. The Jeep would no longer start and gave a “service charging system” message. Upon inspection the dealer stated that Chrysler immediately shipped a power inverter module (pim) upon my Jeep being entered into the system. Since my issue, I have seen 3 other 4XE Jeeps pulled over and broken down in precarious positions. This is what prompted me to file this report, as I believe this may be an issue related to other 4XE Jeeps and if this is the case, it is only a matter of time before an accident that causes loss of life because of how severe and sudden the issue is. Thanks for looking out for our well being and everything y’all do at the NHTSA.

SUSPENSION
Potential Consequences:
I have experienced the famous Jeep Death Wobble in the past with my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Sport...same model as now, so I knew what I was experiencing. Over 2 days I was driving the highways (real estate agent) and 6 times when I hit a bump in the road the front end starting shaking and I began to lose control of it. I knew from before that putting on the brakes quickly will help to stop it, but hard to do going 65-70mph down the highway. Fortunately it was a holiday weekend and not many people on the road. It responded fairly quickly when I braked quickly most of the times, but the last time, it didn't respond quickly and I had a car fairly close behind me so I couldn't stop harder. It took a couple of seconds to get it under control. I feel lucky I didn't cause an accident or be in one.

Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Vehicle lost power while driving at highway speed, rapidly decelerating from 70 MPH to <20 MPH. Ignition was turned off after pulling off the highway. When vehicle restarted, alarms cleared and system temporarily operated normally. Problem returned shortly thereafter, but this time did so while accelerating across a street. This condition could have jeopardized safety of self or others by eliminating ability to maneuver/stranding vehicle in roadway. This incident was reported to dealership, who then inspected/investigated. Source is thought to be a faulty fuel pressure sensor. Warning lamps that accompanied this condition were: Check Engine, Sway Bar Link disconnected, and check 4-wheel drive. The check engine light appeared and reset approximately 60 miles prior, and no other symptoms were noted.
