2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee problems

“Suddden engine stalls/electrical shutdown while in motion, causing total loss of power steering and power Other incidents of while traveling at 65-70 mph on the interstate the vehicle suddenly suffered a power failure and dropped into a dangerously low gear at low speed. The engine wound up drastically, causing a severe spike in RPMs, but when pressing the gas pedal, the vehicle refused to move or increase speed.spedometer read 20 mph. I videoed this when it happened.”

“1).While driving the message shows up: Vehicle is not in park. Then the motor shuts off (at any speed). This happened several times (I was on my way to take my wife to chemo infusions)! This is very dangerous when driving and caused almost an accident on the highway!!! 2), When turning the motor on, the seat moves into the pre-set drivers position, then moves back again and then the motor shots off. The car can't be driven then for a few minutes.”

“The vehicle experiences severe drivetrain binding, mechanical clunking, and erratic 4WD electronic timing failure while operating at normal driving speeds. During acceleration (27–28 mph, transitioning from D4 to D5 gear), the automatic 4WD transfer case / front axle disengages abruptly under load, causing an audible mechanical clunk and drive-line shock. During deceleration (31 mph down to 15 mph, downshifting from D6 to D4 gear), the 4WD system forces a re-engagement of the front axle, creating a heavy binding shock and severe mechanical clunk. This uncommanded electronic engagement and disengagement failure creates vehicle hesitation, drivetrain binding, and a potential loss-of-control hazard while driving. The issue is available for inspection and has been documented on video.”

“Car cut off while driving, again. Full dashboard started to flash, warnings, stated that there was no battery, no gas. I was stopped in traffic and managed to pull over and had restart the car. This is the second time that it has cut off while driving . The first time my toddler son was in the car in morning traffic and it cut off. This is an extreme safety hazard for myself, my family and others driving. The entire system failed. It was supposedly fixed before but the problem is still there.”

“2025 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE – UNINTENDED ACCELERATION, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL AND UNEXPECTED BRAKING I am reporting multiple intermittent safety-related problems with my 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee, VIN [XXX], involving Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), unexpected acceleration, and unexpected braking. While driving on the highway with ACC activated, the vehicle has on multiple occasions behaved unpredictably. When another vehicle enters or cuts into my lane, my Grand Cherokee does not always reduce speed as expected. On some occasions, the vehicle has accelerated even though another vehicle was directly ahead or entering my path. One of these incidents occurred before a collision. I was traveling in my lane with the driver-assistance/ACC system activated when another vehicle crossed into my path. My Jeep continued traveling forward and did not automatically slow or brake sufficiently in response to the vehicle entering my path. When I manually applied the brakes, there was not enough distance remaining to avoid the collision. I have also experienced approximately two incidents on the highway involving unexpected aggressive braking. When I manually touched the brake…”

“On XXX at approximately 1:32 p.m., I was stopped in a Starbucks drive-through in my 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe. The vehicle was completely stopped and my foot was on the brake pedal. Without any intentional acceleration input from me, the vehicle suddenly lurched forward. The movement was significant enough that I initially believed the vehicle behind me had struck my Jeep. I then confirmed that the vehicle behind me had not made contact with my vehicle. Fortunately, I had left sufficient distance between my Jeep and the vehicle in front of me, and no collision occurred. This is the second serious unintended vehicle-control event I have experienced with this vehicle. I previously submitted NHTSA Complaint #XXX after the vehicle unexpectedly applied severe braking while I was driving, without an apparent obstacle or braking input from me. The sudden deceleration in that incident caused the seatbelt restraint to injure my chest. Following the first incident, the Jeep dealership retained the vehicle for approximately one week but was unable to duplicate the condition or determine its cause. I subsequently reported the incident to Stellantis. Stellantis has…”
