2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L

It shut down as we were driving with no warning and would not start or move. My steering wheel locked. I had my childr j in the car and we were stranded in the middle of a crowded highly trafficked road and its nowhere to go and no way of moving out of the way.

I have had this 2024 Grand Cherokee for barely 4 months and this is the second time I have gotten the notification “Automatic Emergency braking needs servicing” and “Right Lighting needs servicing” the AEB nor forward collision warning works and last time I brought it in they said the right head light was continuously running which is why it needed servicing and here I am 2 weeks later with the exact same issue.

This vehicle was purchased brand new Nov.29 2025 on Jan. 20 2025 (mileage - 1232) the vehicle was driven about 48 miles and once arrived the vehicle was placed in Park and turned off as normal. After 90 or so minutes inside came out to start vehicle and it would not start, dash lit up with multiple error messages : "Service Transmission Continue in D don't shift or turn off vehicle until you reach a desired location as you may not be able to shift again" "Service Electronic Stability Control" "Auto Park Disabled" "Vehicle not in Park" every feature on the car disabled. It would then not turn the power back off at all. Called roadside assistance and waited in 2 degree weather with my wife and child for about 2 hours to get towed to nearest Jeep dealer, all the while the power would not turn off to the Jeep. The dealer was still having an issue an hour later trying to turn off before we left. This vehicle is still with the dealer trying to diagnose the issue. This is a big safety issue that needs to be looked into as if I were driving this could have caused a serious issue especially with my children in the vehicle with me.
