- Jeep Wrangler 4xe owners experienced issues after an over-the-air software update, rendering vehicles inoperable.
- The update caused power terrain issues, with some vehicles unable to start or losing power mid-drive.
- Jeep did not inform customers beforehand, leading to safety concerns and vehicles being towed to dealerships.
- A second update has been pushed to revert the software to the previous version, but version numbers on Uconnect remain unchanged.
- Owners are advised to avoid hybrid or electric-only drive modes if their vehicle is affected and to defer updates if their car is functioning normally.
- Many owners remain without their vehicles as dealerships work on fixes.
