While making a left turn into a busy intersection with a green arrow signal, my car applied emergency braking, slamming all of us in the car forward, locked up tires, in the middle of the intersection, with a car right behind me! I have no idea how we were not rear ended! There was absolutely no reason for the braking and it was very scary, sending my daughter into tears. We were able to continue driving after a few seconds sitting in the intersection in shock. My head immediately hurt and wasn’t sure really what happened but the slam was intense like a collision. This is very scary, and dangerous! If this had happened on a hwy or at a faster speed could have caused a serious accident, which I am now reading has happened to other Jeep owners.

I own a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee. On August 18, 2025, the rear suspension coil detached and fell off in my driveway. I had the vehicle repaired at an authorized Jeep dealership. However, on **August 31, 2025 — just 13 days later — the exact same coil spring detached again, this time while I was driving at freeway speeds.This is a severe safety hazard that could have caused a catastrophic accident. The defect is identical to NHTSA Recall No. 23V413000 (Chrysler Recall 64A), which addresses rear coil springs detaching while driving. Despite my vehicle being the same year, make, and model as those included in the recall, my VIN is not currently covered. Given that the defect has now occurred twice on my vehicle, including immediately after a dealer repair, I strongly believe this safety recall should be expanded to include additional VINs, including mine.

On July 16, 2025, at approximately 6:10 PM, I was driving home on the highway at around 65 mph when I attempted to brake. The brake pedal went completely to the floor, and no braking occurred. At the same time, the following warning lights and messages suddenly appeared on the dashboard: - “Service Park Brake” - “Service ABS” - “Service Electronic Stability Control” - “Auto Hold Unavailable” - “4WD System Temporarily Unavailable” I was able to maneuver the vehicle into the emergency lane without colliding with other vehicles or causing a high-speed rear-end accident. The vehicle came to a gradual stop but would not restart afterward. This failure occurred without any prior warning and posed a serious risk to my safety and the safety of others on the road. I do not know how an accident was avoided, as the failure was sudden and could have resulted in a tragedy. The vehicle is a 2-year-old Jeep, with approximately 36,000 miles, and has been regularly serviced by Jeep, most recently about one month prior to the incident. After the incident, I had the vehicle inspected by a Jeep dealership, which confirmed the failure and identified a defective brake control module as the root cause. The component is available for inspection upon request.
