Upon starting my vehicle, my dashboard began flashing errors. All the indicator lights were lighted up (power steering, engine, collision detection, traction). The mileage began blinking on and off. Both of the light indicators on my side windows (for blindspot detection) were continuously illuminated even though I was parked and no vehicles were next to me. The error messages that were flashing on my dashboard were: Service Electronic Stability Control, Service Power Steering, Active Lane Management Limited, and Blind Spot Alert Unavailable. I have pictures of all of this. Additionally, when I put the vehicle into reverse, another error message displayed but I didn't get a picture of this message. When I drove the vehicle down the road (less than half a mile), it sounded louder as if I was revving the engine but I was not. …

Has happened on multiple occasions - beginning in September 2025. Jeep/Stellantis unwilling to resolve. …
My 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee was having failures with the Active Lane Management and Park Sense features not turning on. A visit to the service department revealed failures with both the front and rear facing cameras. While waiting for parts, I was travelling on the highway with the Adaptive Cruise Control enabled. (Not thinking about a possible bad interaction with the ACC.) In slowed traffic, my Jeep decelerated approaching a car, then suddenly accelerated. I had to quickly press the brake before crashing into the car in front of me. The Adaptive Cruise Contol should have disabled with the other systems have trouble with the cameras. The failure mode should have been to brake or shutdown, not to accelerate.
