While driving on the highway at 65mph, the car suddenly lost power in middle of traffic and stopped. I was barely able to park on side of the road and was facing a severe risk of being crashed into! I was able to restart the vehicle after 7min by holding stop start button for long time

We aren't sure what happened exactly. We drove the car 10 minutes from my house to my work, and it started smoking when she parked. The car eventually caught fire and was completely destroyed, including damage to the structure it was parked next to. USAA has the car currently. My safety was put at risk because the car spontaneously caught fire and burned itself, and nearly burned the structure. There is no way to replicate the problem, as it's a slab of melted metal and plastic. The insurance company currently has the car. I don't know if the manufacturer has inpsected it. There were no warning lights prior to it catching fire after being parked. There was a recall associated with the batteries in these Jeeps, but our battery was not part of the recall. It seems the recall should have probably included my car, but it didn't.

On January 6, 2025, one week after picking up the new vehicle from the car dealers lot I was driving on the Merritt parkway when suddenly the AEB light came on and then the traction control and engine light. The vehicle quickly lost power and even with my foot pressed fully on the gas pedal, it would not accelerate and slowed to 20 mph within seconds. Fortunately, there was no car behind me, and I was able to coast into a rest stop. If there were a vehicle behind me, it probably would’ve crashed into me when my car quickly decelerated. I turned off the car and then restarted it. I was able to drive it 3 more miles and it happened again. I pulled onto the shoulder, turned the car off and restarted it a 2nd time.

On December 8, 2024, I was driving my car and put it in reverse to back into a parking space, when the car jerked to a stop and shut down. The vehicle went into some kind of auxiliary mode and would not shut down all the way or start. I was stuck in the middle of the roadway for approximately 20-25 minutes and nothing would work to get it to start. After that 20-25 minute time period, the engine started, although the check engine light stayed on the rest of that day. the next morning, the check engine light was off.

Car would not start, all warning lights and interior lights flashing and blinking, strong smell from engine, loud clicking from engine, battery tested and only at 7%. Had towed to dealership.
