  1. Electric mode temporarily unavailable.

    I ended up selling mine to Vroom because we're buying a house, so I won't know the resolution on mine. Hopefully the techs/engineers are able to figure it out on yours @4xe Rubicon. Definitely appreciate all the research and updates you provided to the problem along the way.
  2. Electric mode temporarily unavailable.

    Select speed always says it’s unavailable. I haven’t taken it to dealer yet. I wanted more data first and it drives beautifully on road so it’s not a daily problem. I’ll be making an appointment soon though and we’ll see how it goes.
  3. Electric mode temporarily unavailable.

    Correct it was in hybrid mode running on what appeared to be exclusively ICE. RPMs would drop and I’d lose power. I *think* I had it in manual 1st gear but I’m not 100% on that. Here’s a video someone took. You can see at the beginning f I’d the video how extreme it is. I am not letting off on...
  4. Electric mode temporarily unavailable.

    Well mine did it again off road today. Checked the code reader and motor units were only around 130 degrees so I don’t think it’s heat related there. Also having trouble with losing power on steep climbs which was really frustrating. Ended up having to stay in the brake with left foot so the...

    I actually think the latest data from our resident tester @4xeRubicon (thanks!) points to an electric motor overheating. So far I haven't had this issue on road, but definitely did while wheeling it on a moderate trail. Youtubers have ran this same trail in electric without issue and I'm all...

    I think that theory fits with my experience as well. I very slow crawling over difficult terrain in electric when mine failed. I didn’t hear any fan noise and wouldn’t be at all surprised if it was heat related. Too bad there isn’t a battery temp screen to monitor.

    Nice job with the testing. Something definitely seems wrong and I don’t think 35” tires are to blame.
  8. Electric mode temporarily unavailable.

    Yeah next time I'm going to leave it in hybrid and see how it goes. When I lost electric mode, and before turning it off and back on again, the ICE performed horribly on a steep slow climb. It felt like the jeep was trying to rely on electric for the start of the climb and then have the engine...
  9. Electric mode temporarily unavailable.

    This happened to me when wheeling red cone pass yesterday. Was running full electric, felt what was described earlier as a clutch slipping, check engine light came on and electric mode unavailable. Power cycling let me get back into electric mode but it would just do the same thing on any steep...
