Unexplained and dangerous transmission issue resulting in stalling while driving at low speeds, electronic malfunction, and check engine light which first occurred on 7/23/24 when the vehicle had roughly 3,500 miles. Vehicle was with dealer service from July 24-August 15, 2024. During that time, repair was allegedly attempted twice and vehicle returned to me on 8/15/24 after allegedly a replacement part was installed from Jeep/Chrysler HQ. Was told by the dealer service rep the issue was a known issue and other Wagoneers had been brought in with the same issue when I retrieved the vehicle. Dealer service could/would not confirm if issue was recreated but assume so since the vehicle was kept for so long. Sudden stalling and check engine light occurred again on 10/3/2024. Contacted dealer service on 10/3/2024; was told not to drive vehicle and a tow truck would be sent. Car towed to dealer on 10/4/2024 and returned again after alleged repair on 10/18. Issue occured again on 11/16. Have not brought it back to the dealer as I have filed for lemon law. Check engine light was on but went off a week later. On all three occasions, prior to the stalling and electrical malfunction, the car seems to be stuck in a low gear while driving and makes a grinding noise. The issue occurs when slowing down and has not happened at high speeds, luckily. Filing this with NHSTA as I see there is also an investigation into 2022 model for same issue.

With less than 500 miles on the vehicle, while stopped at a stoplight, the vehicle automatically shifted from drive to park and had to be restarted in order to accelerate forward. Check engine light also came on. When stopped at the same light again moments later, the same thing occurred. These events happened within a couple minutes of each other. Vehicle would not accelerate until restarted. Took vehicle to get serviced, the next day within minutes after leaving the dealership and servicing, the check engine light came on after accelerating at a stop light with the same engine error codes.

While sitting at the gas station in park, my feet were on the floor not touching the brake or gas pedal, the wagoneer shifted itself into drive and started driving forward and collided with the parking barrier in front of me.

Vehicle is 4 months old and has 2300 miles on it. Randomly and suddenly the vehicle will lose power while in traffic. No steering or engine power. It will abruptly coast to a stop, put itself into park, and stall. Several lights will come on. All the lights but the check engine lights disappear after letting the car sit. The car sometimes turns over only to stall a few seconds later. If left to sit for 30 minutes or so, it will drive again. Obviously a car that shuts off and loses power while driving is a big safety issue. I am unsure if I should drive it again, in case it happens at the wrong time. This has happened on three occasions over the last 350 miles. 5/6/24 5/22/24 6/15/24 The vehicle has spent over thirty days at the dealer. They do not know how to fix it. On 6/15/ 24 one of the owners of the dealership was able to see the mechanical problems 1st hand.

Brand new with 20 miles on the car, drove 120 miles home from the dealership and did not drive hard or aggressively. The car was pouring oil and needed to be towed to the nearest dealer for a blown crank shaft seal.

Reading these

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
