Consumer Description
Charging Fault Error came on as my wife was driving home when her 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4XE suddenly shut off and came to a immediate halt. She was barely able to prevent a major accident, which could've caused serious injury to herself and others on the road. Vehicle would not restart and was not even able to put the vehicle in neutral to push out of harm's way. The moment it happened I received a message on my Jeep UConnect app that a Charging Fault Error occurred. I didn't know what this meant, but about 60 seconds later my wife called me in distress and told me what happened. She was terrified couldn't even drive the rest of the way home and had to stand in 100F heat for an hour waiting for a tow truck. Result: The Jeep Wrangler 4XE is still in the shop (it's been in the dealership for over 3 weeks now, and we've owned it for 3 months and 3500 miles. They have no diagnosis and say they are still ordering parts. Asked 2x to speak with upper management at FCA and was told someone would call in 24 hours, it' been over 72 hours now. Included file of Jeep case number and Jeep 4XE forum with multiple chats on this same issue.
