I certainly already experienced crashes due to JIT miscompilations, even though it was a while back, on Websphere with IBM Java implementation.
Also it is almost impossible to guarantee two runs of an application will trigger the same machine code output, unless the JIT is either very dumb on its heuristics and PGO analysis, or one got lucky enough to reproduce the same computation environment.
