I am reporting a serious safety concern with my 2024 Jeep Wagoneer. For approximately six months, I have repeatedly taken the vehicle to an authorized Viva Jeep dealership in [XXX], because of transmission and acceleration concerns. The dealership has attempted to diagnose the issue, including keeping my vehicle for approximately one month, but the problem has not been resolved. On XXX, while driving, the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated without my intention or command and reached approximately 90 mph. I was able to regain control and safely stop the vehicle. The following day, I experienced additional abnormal behavior. When pressing the accelerator, the RPM and shifting did not respond normally, and the vehicle appeared to remain in an incorrect gear. I have repeatedly reported concerns about the transmission/powertrain for months, but the problem continues and has now escalated into a serious safety concern. I do not feel safe operating this vehicle. I am requesting that NHTSA document and review this incident as a potential vehicle safety defect involving unintended acceleration and transmission/powertrain malfunction.

Is 1 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2026 and 2026, roughly 1 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
