At times mainly turning Right or Left you have no acceleration while pushing the gas pedal. Its like the pedal is dead and then all of sudden it kicks in and accelerates abruptly. Huge safety hazard in multiple ways.

On Sunday, [XXX], my truck spontaneously burst into flames while parked in my front yard. I had just returned from doing a number of errands. The truck had been running fine with no indications of a problem. I was outside tending to my smoker when I heard a sort of popping/crackling noise. I looked up at my truck approximately 40 feet away and saw flames shooting out from the engine bay through the hood gaps. I called 911 and attempted to douse the flames with a powder fire extinguisher with no luck. By the time the fire department arrived 15 minutes later or so, the truck was fully involved and burnt to the frame. I didn't smell gasoline during the initial startup, but a strong smell of burning wires. The concerns are of course for my safety and that of my family. It was just luck that the truck was parked in the front yard rather than next to my house where it's normally parked. We were have a sidewalk put in and thus my normal parking space wasn't available. I could've been driving at the time and with the speed of this fire, I'm not confident I would've been able to get out. The truck has been seen by the insurance company and is being towed out of my yard sometime today May 29th, 2025. I don't know where it will towed to. I have pictures and videos detailing the fire and it's progression. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Vehicle started screeching at a high pitch deafening tone. It terrified me and has made my ears ring and hurt all day....went and had a hearing test done and I now have mild hearing loss...will go back in two weeks to test it again. I pulled over and turned radio and truck off....and it still keep screaming. I disconnected the battery and it also still kept doing it. I drove to the dealership while.trying to plug ears shut with fingers.. After a hour there setting up to pay and leave the truck with them, it stopped. I did do the hearing test after it happened because my ears hurt and kept on ringing. I also recorded a video on my phone of the sound that was blasting out. I thought I smelt burning wires but realized later that the sound was way higher than the radio turned all the way up and the smell was coming from all the speakers being pushed over their max decimal compasity. I have a video but it will not let me upload it in the file section.

Recall # 23V896 was sent to me on January 2024 and 14 months later still no parts available for the repair. Risk are the vehicle may roll in park and lose power while driving. I have already had one of the bolts break and it was replaced with a new defective bolt because replacements ( non - defective ) bolts were not yet available. Why is this taking over a year to resolve?

After driving home from work on 12/20/24 the truck was parked at ~10pm. At ~1AM on 12/21/24, I was alerted that the truck was on fire. I found the vehicle fully engulfed in the hood and cab area. There was no prior indication of a problem or issue. The truck was fully destroyed and my home and Jeep were damaged. My home was damaged and only saved because I brought my garden hose out and sprayed the house until the local FD arrived. The local Fire Investigator and the Insurance Fire investigator could it definitively identify how/why the truck caught fire and burned up.
