Jeep Wrangler 4xe hybrid owners faced issues after installing a faulty over-the-air software update.
The update caused power loss while driving, leaving some owners stranded.
Reports indicate the failure occurs during driving, sometimes at highway speeds.
Jeep pulled the update and advised owners to avoid hybrid or electric modes if they had installed it.
A fix was later pushed out by Jeep.
The incident highlights the risks of poorly timed software updates, similar to the Crowdstrike issue.
