“Today is 10/19/2026. I have a 2022 Jeep Wrangler 4Xe Rubicon that has completed all of its safety recalls and recall notices. Each recall notice has been completed and each was marked as having no issues found. After completion of recall notice 68C (NHTSA 25V-741), we began to experience a complete change in how the car operates based on the vehicle mode selected on the 3 button panel (Hybrid, Electric, E-Save). We are now experiencing a consistent inappropriate kicking in of the gasoline engine when selecting and driving in the "Electric" only mode. Our normal driving of this car has occurred on the same roadways since we purchased the car from dealer stock. Prior to the Safety recall notice referred to as "68C/NHTSA 25V-741), we could select the "Electric" mode button on the 3 button panel selection and our 4Xe would run exclusively in the electric mode until it approached or reached the 1% mark. Now, the vehicle will kick in the gasoline engine even when the electric charge is above 50% ( I have actually had it kick in at the 75% mark). In addition, when this happens, the engine will rev to the 3000-4000rpm range unlike when the selection mode is chosen for…”

“The check engine light was on and it said to service the battery charging components. When driving in hybrid mode it doesn’t switch to use the battery. When I was trying to pull off after stopping, the jeep hesitated and would not move and then all of a sudden jerked and took off almost making me crash and people crash into me.”

“i PURCHASED MY 2022 JEEP RUBICON 4XE USED ON MARCH 31, 2026. IN APRIL, I HAD A RECALL NOTICE FOR RECALL 68C. I TOOK IT TO MY JEEP DEALER AND HAD THE RECALL DONE. IMMEDATELY, I NOTICED THAT MY ACCELERATION IN ELECTRIC MODE & HYBRID MODE IS DRASTICALLY REDUCED TO THE POINT OF BEING UNSAFE. ATTEMPTING TO MERGE OR PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC, THE VEHICLE NO LONGER ACCELERATES LIKE IT DID BEFORE THE RECALL 68C WAS DONE. IT FELLS LIKE I AM DRIVING WIHT MY EMERGENCY BREAK ENGAGED, AS THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE NORMALLY. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT EVERYTHING IS NORMAL, HOWEVER IT IS VERY DIFFERENT. I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IF IT HAD A HESITATION WHEN ACCELARATING. LOOKING ONLINE FOR SUGGESTIONS, I DISCOVERED THAT THOUSANDS OF JEEP WRANGLER 4XE OWNERS WHO HAD THE 68C RECALL DONE, HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE. I AM SURPRISED THAT NO ONE HAS BEEN KILLED OR SERIOSLY INJURED DUE TO THE HESITATION, CAUSED BY THE RECAL. I WOULD RATHER DEAL WITH THE POSSIBLE RISK OF FIRE THAN HESITATION CAUSED BY THE RECALL "FIX", IN THIS CASE THE CURE IS FAR WORSE AND MORE DANERIOUS THAN THE DISEASE/ISSUE JEEP WAS TRYING TO FIX WITH 68C.”

“I’ve had an ongoing issue with my car since earlier this year, 2026, and the code says “electric coolant heater” and i have a solid check engine light. they replaced the coolant heater a few months ago and now it’s doing the same thing again. There’s also another recall for the power steering and i’ve recently started to notice that when i start my car (which i normally will sit there for a few minutes before i drive to let everything “wake up”) there is a delay in the steering ability. my steering wheel will remain stiff unless i jerk the wheel to “wake it up” in a sense. this just started happening this week. the dealership that i got this thing at is being no help whatsoever and i’m getting tired of this!!! they don’t have a loaner car available to me so they’ve been telling me to wait to make a service appointment until they have a car available but i cannot wait on this issue any longer. matter of fact, this is absolutely ridiculous considering how much i pay for this thing every month and how lack of help the dealership has been!!!! I need a solution for this now”

“Our daughter (who is a student at the University of Virginia) had been having issues with her Jeep and the instrument panel. In addition to the "death rattle" which terrified her regularly when driving it on the highway, she had been complaining to us over the months preceding this accident that the car was doing odd things, the instrument panel was glitchy, would often have flashing lights and sometimes the steering wheel would feel tight or heavy. The day of the accident- she was driving to class on the UVA campus, going slowly (under 25mph) - and in the moments before the accident, while she was driving, the instrument panel started flashing lights, the fuel gage started going up and down, seeming to be having an electrical issue, so she pulled off the road going 22mph to get out of the way of pedestrians- there was actually a campus police officer directing traffic at the intersection she was going through. So, she quickly pulled off the road to a side parking area next to a campus building - and then suddenly the car accelerated rapidly at 40mph into the side of a building. The car was totaled, driver (our daughter) could have been killed as the jeep drove…”
