Driving safety concern. Important My new vehicle (Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X) 2026 abruptly shut down as I was driving and veering the steering wheel to the left. All the vehicle power was suddenly gone (electrical, engine, etc) without notice and the vehicle made an aggressive total stop immediately . The steering wheel was hard and the brakes blocked after it lose power and shut down. This has happened twice now. Fortunately I was driving at low speeds and there where no vehicles behind me. However I don’t want to drive the car anymore as this can lead to a serious accident. The first time this happened was two week ago. I took the vehicle to the dealership where I bought it and after 2 weeks of checking the vehicle they returned it to me saying that they couldn’t find anything. 5 days after I got the vehicle back from the dealership this happened again today. The problem persists and it’s a very concerning.

Noticed Drivers seat back does not move forward to allow back seat egress in the event of a collision. The problem was confirmed by a salesman at the dealership. It has not been inspected by any others. There were no electrical warnings or symptoms only the mechanical failure of the drivers seat back to move forward when trying to gain access to or from the back seat. Only the front passenger seat allows egress from the back seat. This is a safety hazard if the passenger side is blocked in a collision.
