but then would not restart when I took my foot off the brake, stuck blocking
traffic, and again, had to cycle through a number of times and eventually it
started. then again happened the next day, but this time would only crank but
not start, had to get it towed to my house, left it there until the next they i tried
turn it on and it started like normal. tried 10 times and it wouldn't fail kept
turning on like normal. anyone has any idea about this issue?

Sounds lie the stop-start system is defective. Have a Jeep mechanic diagnose it.

2014-17 Jeep Cherokees were recalled in 2020 due to these issues. You didn't get notified?
