I was driving on the freeway at 70 mph when the dashboard went blank. The engine completely shut off so I steered to the side of the freeway and was able to stop the car. It won-??t start, won-??t lock, won-??t do anything now. Had to get towed to the dealership.

I took my daughter to the Dr in corpus which is an hour away. When returning home we were on our way to pick up our prescriptions when my car completely died on us 4 times. Check engine was on. I took it yo our dealership to get it he led out driving on the backroads. They had it for a few weeks, cleared the check engine light but could not indicate the issue. Why clear the light if something was wrong" They shipped it to another dealership which they couldn-??t indicate the issue either. My point is if I-??m driving on the highway or on a crowded road what-??s going yo happen? I have no signal or hazard lights then this happens. Why would I want this car back. Plus we have seat belt recall??" Like okay you want me to jeopardize myself and my family. Just buy the vehicle back. I had issues on my gas and break popping for months was in the shop 5/6 times same issue. Sounds like a lemon law should take place

First, I lost my radio, then my GPS, then my air conditioner, then I lost everything - no power steering, no engine. This was in heavy, high speed traffic on the interstate. I did manage to get the vehicle off the road. Towed to a dealership, 6 hours from my home. This happened on August 7, 2023. On my return home, on August 16, 5 hours into my trip, the Active Lane Management quit. The switch, and light say it is on (or off), but it is not working. During the 9 days without the vehicle, I was in continuing contact with Corporate Customer Service. Their decision is that I have no case for this being a continuing safety issue. THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE. WHAT IS GOING TO QUIT NEXT" WILL I BE ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE NEXT TIME"

Engine shut down while on the interstate at 70 mph.
- Naples, FL, USA
On four (4) separate occasions between December 2022 and April 2023 this vehicle lost all power and the engine shut off while the vehicle was in motion and being driven. The vehicle was being operated under normal conditions. Three occasions were while traveling on the Interstate, and the other time was on a city street. During these incidents, all electronic displays would shut off, the engine would turn off, and power steering stopped working. The vehicle would need to be coasted to a complete stop before the engine could be restarted and driven again. This was a safety risk to occupants in the vehicle as the vehicle could not be controlled, and a risk to other motorists on the road as lights were no longer working and the vehicle could not be steered to avoid a collision. This vehicle has been to a dealer's service center and the cause has not been determined. This safety issue has not been fixed. The manufacturer is aware of these incidents and has not provided a solution, diagnosis, or repair. Two warning lights turned on immediately before the vehicle's power turned off: Electric Power Steering Fault Warning Light and Electronic Throttle Control Warning Light.

In October 2022 our Wagoneer was taken to the dealership due to the radio display turning off and on, the passenger screen not functioning properly or connecting through the HDMI. We were told the issue was resolved after replacing parts in the dash. About a month later the radio screen again turned off while driving. In February 2023, while driving the Wagoneer in the fast lane on the interstate, the power steering went out, the brakes would not work and the vehicle proceeded to shut down. The dash repeatedly displayed different instructions, "press brake and push button to start, " "vehicle not in park, " "shift P to start, " "stop/start restart required, " "shift to P then desired gear, " and the red battery symbol appeared on the dash. After making it safely to the shoulder, the vehicle did restart. We were blessed not to have been involved in a collision, as we were initially surrounded by commercial vehicles. Luckily, it appears the commercial truck drivers noticed something was wrong and slowed their vehicles, allowing us to move from the fast lane to the right shoulder before our vehicle came to a complete stop. A short time later, we were able to start the vehicle. 30-45 minutes later while driving, the dash and radio screen turned off. After stopping in a parking lot and turning the vehicle off for a bit, we started the vehicle. When placing the vehicle in drive, it moved forward a few feet and the parking brake was somehow engaged on its own. Our vehicle was taken to a nearby dealership for inspection 2 days ago and we have not heard back from them. We did show the service department manager a video that was taken while the shut down was occurring that showed the instructions being displayed on the dash as well as the speedometer showing the vehicle coming to a stop.

As I was pulling up to a red light, the vehicle threw itself into park and completely stopped and would not move. I was unable to put gear into drive. Thankfully, I was not going at full speed. After a couple minutes, I was able to put my foot on brake to restart the car. At this point, the engine and battery light were on as well. My fear is what would have happened had the brake auto-engaged at full speed or the highway? There were no issues with this prior to this happening. It has been taken to dealership for repair and has been escalated with a STAR case to get additonal engineer input. Given the dangerous nature of what occured, I wanted to report now even though I'm not sure what the resolution will be to fix it.

Driving approximately 30 miles/hour (estimated) the car started the process of shutting down and then shut down - while moving. The lights flickered on the dash board but don't recall exactly what the indicators were. We were able to pull over to the side of the road, although not entirely off of the road. It was 11:00 PM. This is a safety issue because my family was in the car while it was moving and shut down while moving. We bought the car approximately 10 days prior to this happening and it had 17 miles on it when we bought it brand new.
