Car suddenly shut down on me automatically while pulling onto highways at 60mph it engaged parking brake and displayed a message on screen that stated "place shifter into park and restart". I headed for the dealership instantly. After oil consumption test it was determined that the engine would be replaced. Engine was replace mid November 2020. Not even 3000 miles on the new engine it once agian stalled out and engaged parking brake. Oil is not low. "check engine light" is on and car bogs down when accelerated. Can not drive in normal traffic. Almost like transmission is going. I have two children under 2yrs old an its our only car! I expressed my concerns about the saftey of the Jeep and it definitely is not 5here at all! my wife and I do not trust driving this vehicle one more mile.

Car dies while driving for no reason. Intermittently. Transmission intermittently jerks into gear. Instrument panel intermittently does not come on until restart. Key fobs (main fob and spare) intermittently do not function. (batteries are not the issue)

Hand brake, part # 6mf41lxh-aa, switch br 08058060, due to vehicle design and being acceptable to underneath rain water, puddles, slusshes, but no high waters or floods, when engaged in park will not disengage, and not movable, and must be transported to be factory or dealer repaired/ replaceed at a high owner expense plus the inconvience of not having use of the Jeep.

When shifting vehicle will jolt and make a pop noise mostly when driven long miles and then shifting between speed limits, going through roundabouts, stopping and going,

- Green Bay, WI, USA

During acceleration and deceleration (mostly on inclines or highway travel), the shifting of the engine/transmission seems to "slam" into different gears. I was told by the dealership they cannot check for issues with the drivetrain if there are no check engine lights on the instrument panel. This happens randomly but is increasing in frequency.

Vehicle randomly overheats then gets back to normal. Variable valve actuator failed. And also causing multiple cylinder misfire. Swishing noise occurs as well.

- Beltsville, MD, USA

Auxiliary battery in this causing major other issues within the car. Causing power to transmission to be delay and resulting in both your check engine and check transmission lights to be activated.

1) 10/29/2020 I was driving on the highway with the cruse control on when the car made a loud thump, jumped out cruse control, shut off, check engine light came on. After sitting for a bit, car started but would not go over 25 mpr back to town. At the signal light, when stopped, the car started to go in reverse. Was able to stop it again, and got it to dealership. They said it needed a computer update. 2) 12/06/2020 1 month later, driving on the highway home from work at night, car did it again, check engine light came on. I was able to get the car to the side of the road. After sitting, it started, but would not run over 25 mpr. And this time at signal light stopped, the car surged forward and almost hit the car in front. The car is going back to the dealership asap. This car is very dangerous

Car keeps stopping at light and not wanting to turn back

- Grand Prairie, TX, USA

Today while driving on the highway, my car started to jerk which then the check engine light popped up with the transmission light saying it needed to be serviced. Once that appeared in the middle of me driving on the highway my car failed to accelerate. It stalled on me in the middle of the highway where everyone is driving 65 mph and it gave me no time to move over to the side of the road. I immediately turned my emergency lights on. Once the car came to a complete stop it jerked and the power on the car went off, so it put it on emergency brakes and said to step on brake and push start. I turned the car completely off and turned it back on, so I began to drive again with caution but the check engine light was still there. I drove for a mile and the transmission light message popped up again, which then cause my vehicle to jerk and stall again in the middle of driving. It put it on emergency brake but this time I was able to move to the side of the road. I let the car cool down so I turned it completely off again. This is not the first this has happened. Its very dangerous and unacceptable. I have taken it to the dealership several times and the mechanics have no idea what it is. I need to get this fixed because its not safe for me or others driving around me. I do not feel safe in this car because random things appear and cause the car to fail while in driving. There was no message or warning about anything.

Most recent occurrence today with transmission light.

When the vehicle is parked after being in motion, I often get an error message for the transmission followed by a check engine light. When this happens, the vehicle has a hard time shifting. By this, I mean that whenever I shift into another gear the vehicle stalls then has an abrupt shift that moves the entire vehicle. If the vehicle is not turned off for a minimum of 30minutes, the vehicle will not exceeds speeds of 35 mph. The vehicle also continues to make a noise that sounds like it is being forced into motion.
