Brand new jlur first road trip, got less then 500 miles out of co into hays,ks. Vehicles has lees then 5000 miles, was passing a vehicle at 68 MPH. Lost all forward gears, got a code for valve body silenoid high voltage. Jeepcares did nothing for a tow. It's a little sad you pay $55,000+ for a vehicle, just to have a vehicle sit in the shop with no loaner. Transmission is on a 2 month back order. Word of advice stay away from any the new jl/jt model jeeps.

2020 jeep wrangle jl with less than 3000 miles will periodically lose acceleration and not go past 3 gear. This has happened multiple times after driving for a bit and attempting to accelerate from a red light or stop sign. I have noticed if you turn off the vehicle and back on, it seems to fix the problem but the unexpected loss of acceleration and ability to reach normal operating speed has put me in danger situations numerous times. Not sure if it is related but I also noted that the auto start/stop warning light was on the last time it happened.
I was sold a new automobile with a serious open safety recall, the federal safety agency recall # 20v‑124, that was no disclosed and not repaired before it was sold to me and I took possession of it.
I believe the vehicle clutch failed and the vehicle lost forward propulsion. Prior to the loss of clutch pressure and propulsion, a strong burning smell was noted coming form the vehicle, followed by smoke. The vehicle was in motion, going through stop and go traffic, on a city street. I believe this is related to recall 20v124000. The vehicle has 138 miles on it and was being driven home after being purchased new from the dealership.
Approaching light turning from yellow to red. Applied breaks. Vehicle would not stop. Abs system engages loudly car shakes uncontrollably - does not come to stop. Vehicle proceeds into intersection and is unable to break. Vehicle speed 35-40 approaching light with 50-60 yards to stop safely. Complete failure of breaks. Third time had to return vehicle to dealer for failure of systems.
