NHTSA Complaint #11701041 — 2024 JEEP WAGONEER S

At 2,000 miles car experiences an issue when going from drive to reverse the car issued warning that transmission needs to be serviced, wouldn’t go into any gear and wouldn’t turn off. Had to be dragged into flatbed truck and taken to dealer. At 3,000 miles had to stop in road due to medical helicopter and road being closed. When road opened up went to put car into drive. Same errors as before (can’t get in gear, warning lights and won’t turn off) and car had to be dragged onto a flat bed tow truck. Fire department initiated the tow due to safety issues of being in dangerous location. After a week at dealer was told it was ready to pickup. Then told to see a mechanic there who would show me what to do next time this happened. Involved unhooking 12v battery and pulling some fuses. Informed issue wasn’t fixed just a work around was done. I talked to service manager and was informed this is a known issue and factory is working on a repair. The car isn’t safe breaking down twice while driving on public roads and not being able to turn off. Note: in both cases the car wouldn’t turn off for days even while parked at dealer lot.
