NHTSA Complaint #11693011 — 2024 JEEP WRANGLER

In early October 2025 (specifically around October 10), Jeep/Stellantis pushed an over-the-air (OTA) software update via Uconnect to 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe models. This update, intended for system improvements or recalls (e.g., related to hybrid battery management or telematics), instead caused widespread failures in the vehicle's computer systems, particularly the telematics control module (TCM) and powertrain control module (PCM). After the update I experienced the following. - Sudden loss of motive power while driving (e.g., the vehicle shutting off mid-drive, refusing to accelerate, or entering limp mode). - Check Engine Light (CEL) illumination. - Inability to shift gears or recognize transmission states, rendering the vehicle undrivable. - Vehicle stalling multiple times in short distances, leading to to the need for a tow. In my instance I was on a two lane road with no shoulder and no way to drive my vehicle. I was able to move to a parking lot and wait for a tow.
