Engine Stall With Intermittent Restart
The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 80 consumer complaints alleging an engine stall and loss of motive power on model year (MY) 2022 RAM 1500 pickup trucks and 2022 Jeep Wagoneer SUV vehicles. The particular engines in the subject vehicles are equipped with the Fiat Chrysler Automotive Group LLC (FCA) 5.7L Hemi eTorque system. The eTorque system is a mild hybrid system that lets the vehicle partially power itself. It accomplishes this by converting the captured energy from the braking system into electricity for the battery pack, which is then used to power a variety of electrical components. ETorque engines replace the alternator with a 48-volt battery-powered belt drive and a motor generator. The motor generator provides extra torque to the crankshaft during gear changes. Simultaneously, the motor generator uses the 48-volt battery pack to increase torque. Many of the complaints state that the vehicle's engine would shut off, often while travelling at slow speed, the vehicle would shift into park and apply the emergency brake. The vehicles were sometimes able to be restarted. In addition, complaints state that the malfunction warning light with the battery fault symbol appeared on the dash. Many complaints state that a low voltage condition fault is present, sometimes not being able to restart the vehicle. On April 13, 2023, FCA announced recall 23V‑265 describing a defect in certain 2021 Ram 1500 vehicles equipped with 5.7L eTorque engines. The recall described a defect in the powertrain control module software can cause an incorrect fuel mixture condition in the engine, and result in an engine stall. In February of 2024, ODI provided the complaints on the 2022 Ram 1500 and Wagoneer vehicles to FCA. After reviewing the complaints, FCA stated that âthe loss of motive power was likely not caused by an over rich fuel condition (as outlined in recall 23V‑265), but rather some other cause (e.g., an electrical concern that causes the engine to shut down).â A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to assess the scope, frequency, root cause(s) and consequences of these loss/stall of motive power incidents. Additionally, ODI may expand the scope of the subject population during the investigation, if needed.

On XXX my 2022 Jeep Wagoneer completely shut down while driving down the road without any warnings! This is actually the 3rd time this vehicle has shut down on me and it is absolutely terrifying and a HUGE risk for anyone riding in this vehicle when it happens, as well as other vehicles in its pathway.The first time it happened (XXX) i was driving on a state route about 20 miles from home when I had messages come up on my dashthat functions were going to start shutting down, one after another just minutes prior to it shutting down.I fortunately got pulled off into a parking lot befor I lost the power steering and my vehicle shutting down. The car was taken to a dealership and they had it from XXX Local trip just a few miles from home, and without ANY warning it shut down AGAIN! No chance to pull over! It's so terrifying to be in a lane of traffic and no power to get you off the roadway!! Car went to dealership. They had my car from XXX (about 2 MONTHS!) and without a loaner car I may add!! Again vehicles electrical systems were not charging and the BCM was throwing ECU mismatch codes and the were instructed to replace the entire Power Pack Unit. And now we are on event #3 of losing the entire operation of the power system all while driving down the road and this is absolutely terrifying!! The mild hybrid system in this vehicle is not reliable and is putting peoples lives in danger when it shuts down like this ans without warning to let you know to get off the roadway! I have 6 grandchildrenthat i transport around in my vehicle and fortunately have not been with me on any of these occasions but it is one of my biggest fears is that it could happen when the are in the car and it ends in tragedy. One son who is in law enforcement and has seen many tragedies , has even expressed concern, because he has 2 under [XXX] old that i transport INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
My 2022 Jeep Wagoneer has experienced four separate incidents of complete power loss while being operated. During these events, the electrical displays went dark and electrical functions stopped working on the entire vehicle On [XXX], the vehicle lost all power while I was pulling into my garage. It would not release from Park normally and required wheel skates and towing. The dealership replaced the battery, but the symptoms later returned. On [XXX], the vehicle lost all power while traveling approximately 20–30 mph near [XXX] and [XXX] in heavy holiday traffic. I could not reach the shoulder and stopped in a turning lane without a collision. The vehicle required towing. The dealership told me it performed a computer reset and software update. In approximately February 2026, associated with a February 11 service entry, the vehicle again lost power while driving. I was able to restart it and drive to the dealership. My recollection is that I was told another reset/software update was performed, although the online service summary says “Check Battery.” On [XXX], the vehicle lost all power while traveling approximately 35–40 mph on [XXX]. I was able to pull into a service station, restart the vehicle, and deliver it to Chris Crain Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Benton, Arkansas, that day. As of September 30, 2026, the vehicle had remained at the dealership for 33 days without a completed repair communicated to me. A dealership representative, Kim, told me by telephone that technicians had reproduced the failure, suspected an electrical component or connector short, and contacted Jeep engineers. I do not have a confirmed written diagnosis. I am concerned that another unexpected complete power loss in traffic could cause a collision. Similar symptoms have recurred after prior repair efforts, but they all share the same underlying cause. I request review of these incidents as a potential safety defect.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to report a serious safety concern involving my Jeep Wagoneer. The vehicle has experienced intermittent stalling issues, creating a hazardous driving situation and leaving me stranded. The vehicle unexpectedly stalled, causing a loss of power and leaving me without reliable transportation. Given the potential safety risks associated with a vehicle stalling while in operation, I am extremely concerned about the possibility of this occurring again, particularly in traffic or at highway speeds. Adding to my frustration, after contacting the dealership for assistance, I was informed that it would be approximately eight days before the vehicle could even be inspected. A delay of this length for a vehicle experiencing a potentially dangerous drivability and safety issue is unacceptable and leaves me without confidence in the safety and reliability of the vehicle. I am requesting that this matter be investigated promptly and that appropriate action be taken to address the stalling condition. I also believe this issue warrants review for any potential broader safety concerns affecting other Jeep Wagoneer owners. Please document this complaint and advise me regarding any available assistance, escalation options, or known remedies related to this condition. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
Front parksense sensors not working even after being cleaned. Drivers side seatbelt saying not buckled even when buckled. Needing to rebuckle for it to register. Low-voltage warnings appearing while driving. Multiple dashboard warning lights appearing simultaneously - low-voltage and check engine light. Loss of electrical power while driving (So scary!) The vehicle shifting itself into park when coming to a stop in traffic. Apple CarPlay disconnecting sporadically.
While driving, vehicle suddenly displayed low voltage and "power saving mode" error messages. Multiple systems shut down including AC and radio. With engine stop/start disabled, engine died while slowing to a stop, automatically engaged parking brake, and vehicle shut down. Was able to restart and limp home. Vehicle would not re-start after shutdown. Battery was completely discharged (<9V) and still hot to the touch 4 hours after turned off. Battery tested good, but was replaced out of caution. Current static battery voltage 12.3V. Charging voltage while running 13.4V. Voltage while running with heavy electrical load (AC, radio, heated seats, headlights on) 12.9V. Believe this to be related to known issues with eTorque generator
Driver side seat warmer turns off within minutes. I drove 3 other 2022 wagoneers which all did the same thing.
- [ ] U1412 implausible vehicle speed signal received - [ ] U0402 implausible data received from tcm - [ ] P0562 battery system/voltage low - [ ] P032f combustion engine producing insufficient torque Car completely shut off when attempting to turn onto Route 73 in NJ. The car was stuck in the intersection causing a threat to life and well-being of those not only in the Wagoneer but to the other drivers as the car could not be moved until towed. This took over an 1.5 hours to get towed and traffic had to be diverted by police.
The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Wagoneer. The contact stated that while driving under 5 MPH, the vehicle shut off and was rear-ended by a pickup truck. The vehicle was towed to an undisclosed location. The low battery reserve message was displayed afterwards on two occasions. The contact stated the failure was like the failure listed in the federal safety agency Action Number: PE24018 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, HYBRID PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). The Jeep manufacturer was contacted by phone on several occasions, and the contact spoke with a representative. The local dealer associated the failure with the auxiliary battery. The contact was informed that the auxiliary battery needed to be replaced. The failure mileage was approximately 82,000.
Vehicle Information: 2022 Jeep Wagoneer (5.7L V8 eTorque Mild-Hybrid System)Component Affected: Electrical System / Hybrid Propulsion System Defect: My 2022 Jeep Wagoneer continuously experiences sudden engine stalling and unexpected shutdowns while operating in Auto Start-Stop mode. When the vehicle comes to a complete stop at a red light or intersection, the engine shuts off normally to save fuel. However, when I release the brake pedal to accelerate, the vehicle fails to restart automatically. Instead, the vehicle suffers a total loss of power, drops the transmission directly into Park (P), and abruptly engages the emergency parking brake. This creates an immediate, severe safety hazard as it leaves me completely stranded in active traffic and at busy intersections. To get moving again, I am forced to completely cycle the push-button ignition manually. Additionally, the vehicle regularly fails to remote-start, turning itself off immediately due to the electrical fault. A diagnostic scan reveals DTC P0B42 (Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage Sense "B" Circuit Low). This dangerous stalling pattern directly matches the active federal probe under the federal safety agency Investigation PE24018 regarding 2022 Jeep Wagoneer 48-volt electrical and power distribution failures.
