I was traveling northbound on ih35 near exit 329 outside of Waco, Tx travel to Dallas Tx I was in the middle of the highway during rainfall when my jeep completely shut down on me without warning all lights came on radio went black, brake was stiff, steering wheel locked. I had to have my jeep towed $300 later. My vehicle was in park and the vehicle said not in park. Vehicle wouldn’t start up. I was in the 3rd lane of a 4 lane highway when the vehicle stalled and shut off easily could have gotten hit from oncoming traffic. I was on the side of the road for 5 hours not knowing what was wrong with my vehicle. I had a full tank of gas and fluids were A1. I looked up my vin with no recalls being shown. Googled the issue and nothing has been done for anyone that has experienced this scary situation.

This car is having tons of electrical issues. From wire malfunctions in the radio to the ORC module failing. All lights for air bags, abs breaks, check engine, and everything electrical are beeping and flashing. The air bags will not work if I get in an accident and I've read they can deploy at any time while I am driving! If you look online, Chrysler/Jeep has LOTS of ORC failure issues and have even recalled for this for it before. This issue should be covered for until at least 100k miles. Some people have had this ORC module fail at as little as 18k miles. I still have 2 warranties on this car and not one covers it. Chrysler/Jeep should be responsible for fixing this. It is a risk to to peoples lives. I'm not understanding why this is still an issue in 2023 with no penalties to Chrysler/Jeep when it's been happening for over 10 years!? I'm hoping writing this will add one more person to the lost of issues Jeep has so something can be done about it.

Multiple electrical issues for the last 2 years. Most notably is when I start the car the temperature resets itself to the opposite of what it was. I.e. Turned car off with temp lo and reset itself to hi. Taken it to the dealership who states they can't replicate this at all. This still happens with no resolve. Now I receive dash messages stating multiple lights don't work such as the brake lights however they are perfectly fine. Other messages have flashed but then disappear. Also issues with the USB and uconnect. Usb has been replaced due to being loose but now as I drive the USB cuts in and out. Also have been told they cannot replicate this issue.many of these issues started 6 months after purchasing the vehicle and still persist to this day.

After coming to complete stop, car engine shuts off due to start/stop system. When releasing break car cannot start back up, all lights turn on, emergency break is automatically enabled and stalls. I have to put the car in park, turn off (even though engine is not running) and turn back on and remove the emergency break before I can accelerate. This has happened on busy intersections and is a big safety hazard. I have taken vehicle to dealership and they stated the battery was bad. Battery was replaced but the issue is now more frequent.
