The car randomly loses communication with power steering module and locks the steering column. This car has been in shop 6 times for it happening. Creates very unsafe situation as I’m unable to steer car to safety.

In June of 2024 the engine hot and oil pressure low light came on in the middle of a busy intersection and the car went limp had to get it towed to dealer. They replaced engine thermostat. March 18, 2025 was driving down interstate at 80 mph when wheel locked up and brakes. The power steering and brake light came on with a red exclamation point and I was unable to barely move the wheel and had to continue another mile until highway exit. If the highway curbed could have been deadly. Towed it to Jeep and they said upon checking it all looks good. Now I’m suppose to drive my five kids around and hope that never happens again with no explanation from dealer on what exactly caused it.

Immediately after getting off of the expressway on the drive to work, there is a stop light at the intersection of city streets. While sitting at the stop light, foot on the brake, the vehicle stopped running, the brake pedal went to the floor, and the Service Power Steering warning screen was flashing and chiming. I immediately put my hazard lights on to warn oncoming traffic that I wouldn't be proceeding, because at that point the light changed to green and people behind me were letting off their brakes and rolling forward. After about 45 seconds to 1 minute, the vehicle showed a screen that said to place foot on brake and press ignition to start the vehicle. I was able to start the vehicle again, but the power steering warning light was still on. I had the vehicle towed from the street parking near my job. If the incident...

Our problems started with getting a message that said "check user manual for proper fuel and oil" when we accelerated. We just thought that was a warning sign, discussed this with the car dealership, and we were indeed using the correct fuel. When on the interstate going 70mph the car started rocking back and forth with the check engine light turned on. Took it to the dealership and they said it was computer updates, whichever helped for a couple months and then we continued to get the same message. Throughout our entire year and a 1/2 having the car, our tailgate has managed to fail four times now.The trunk has opened while driving, having stuff fall on the highway. We have gotten stuck places with the trunk not being able to shut. While driving on the highway, the power steering light turned on and the wheel locked up, I had...

My car recently hit 10k miles. We had a safe trip to Florida the week before no issues or signs of any issue. Two days ago I take my son to the pool at my mother in laws house and go to visit my parents and when I start to leave and pull out of the driveway my car stops and my steering wheel won’t turn but a certain amount. So I had to pull back and try multiple times. Every time I turn the wheel a certain amount it starts to sound like something is slowly cracking under the car. And the car just stops moving if you try to turn the wheel too much. I continue on my way home in Canton, Ga from Woodstock, Ga which is about a thirty minute drive and I have to take wide turns in order to make any turn and not...

2023 Jeep Wagoneer steering wheel became locked with alerts on the dashboard "Power Steering Unavailable Service Required." Thank GOD I parked in a parking lot when I went food shopping. This has happened twice before to my wife in the garage but no alerts came out. I spent two hours stuck and 1 hour waiting for a tow truck. It was a cold day and after the heat to the seats and steering were on, the steering became soft and I was able to steer the car home. I took car to dealership the next day and they gave me a loaner. Two days later I went to the dealership to find out what is going on. They said it may be up to six weeks to get a part. As per the rep who I know very well, she said there have been 59 reports across US and there...
