2014 Jeep Cherokee complaints

THE CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT DISENGAGE WHEN I PUSH THE CRUISE CONTROL CANCEL BUTTON. WHEN I HAVE THE CRUISE CONTROL ON AND GOING 65MPH, (ON A HIGHWAY) OR SO, IN A HIGH ELEVATION AND WANT THE CRUISE OFF, I PRESS THE BRAKE, THE CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT DISENGAGE. IF I PRESS THE CRUISE CONTROL "CANCEL" BUTTON, THE CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT DISENGAGE. I CAN TELL BECAUSE THE CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT ON THE DASH IS STILL LIT. WHAT DOES TURN OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL IS PRESSING THE CRUISE CONTROL BUTTON THAT I PUSH TO ENGAGE CRUISE CONTROL IN THE FIRST PLACE. SO TO TURN OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL, I MUST PRESS THE CRUISE CONTROL "ON" BUTTON. SHOULDN'T PRESSING THE BRAKE OR THE CRUISE CONTROL CANCEL BUTTON TURN OFF CRUISE CONTROL ALL THE TIME? I HAVE PLACED ANOTHER COMPLAINT ON THIS SUBJECT BEFORE WITH YOU, BUT BEFORE I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO CANCEL THE CRUISE CONTROL. NOW I HAVE FOUND THAT I MUST PRESS THE BUTTON THAT ALSO TURNS IT ON TO TURN IT OFF.

WHEN I GOT OFF WORK ONE MORNING, ABOUT TO GET ON INTERSTATE BUT JEEP WAS ACTING FUNNY, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, SO I DECIDED TO STAY ON SERVICE ROAD, CAME TO A LIGHT AND STOPPED, MIND YOU ALL THE LIGHTS WERE BLINKING AND THEN MY WIPERS STARTED GOING OFF, THE JEEP WOULDN'T GO THEN IT DIED. I TRIED THREE TIMES TO PUSH THE START BUTTON BUT THE JEEP DIDNT START UNTIL FINALLY THE 3RD TIME, IT DIDN'T DRIVE WELL, SPUDDERS UNTIL I PULLED OVER INTO A PARKING LOT, THE CAR WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON AND FLASHING WIPERS GOING WITHOUT BEING ON. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WAITED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND IT CAME BACK ON STILL HAD WARNING LIGHTS ON BUT NOT FLASHING AND THE CAR DROVE FINE ALL THE WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 5 WEEKS AGO THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. ABOUT TWO WEEKS I WAS BACKING UP, THEN PUT IN DRIVE AND THE JEEP CONTINUE TO BACK UP, HAD TO PUT IN PARK THEN IN DRIVE TO GO FORWARD THIS HAPPEN THREE TIMES ON THAT DAY, THEN ON SAME DAY WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND GOING ABOUT 73 MPH IT WAS DRIVING ROUGH, THE RPMS STAYED ON 4 AND NEVER DID IDAL DOWN. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN, NOTHING WRONG. THEN ON FRIDAY 7/29/16 SAME THING WITH ALL THE LIGHTS AND WIPERS GOING OFF, BACK TO DEALERSHIP, AS OF YESTERDAY TUESDAY STILL NOTHING WRONG. I BROUGHT WITH 176 MILES ON IT, NEVER GOT THE EXTRA WARRENTY OR SERVICE WARRENTY SORRY DON'T THE MONEY FOR THAT, I HAD TO PAY FOR MY OWN RENT A CAR, DEALERSHIP WON'T PAY FOR IT. I HAVE 57000 MILES ON MY CAR IN TWO YEARS, ALL HWY MILES I WO

LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING ON DASH INCLUDING TRANSMISSION NEEDS SERVICE. THEN CAR JUST LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING . VERY DANGEROUS AS I HAD TO COAST ACROSS 3 LANES OF HEAVY TRAFFIC. LUCKILY OTHER DRIVERS WERE PAYING ATTENTION AND BRAKED FOR ME OR IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A BAD REAR END COLLISION. THE CAR TOLD ME TO RESTART IT. THAT ALLOWED ME TO DRIVE IT HOME WITH SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT ON . MADE SERVICE APPOINTMENT IMMEDIATELY. WHEN I WENT TO TAKE IT SERVICE A WEEK LATER, THE CAR HAD RESET ITSELF!!! DEALERSHIP WAS ABLE TO RECALL THE FAILURE CODES

MY JEEP HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP TWICE IN 2 WEEKS FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES, HARD SHIFTS LUNGING, LOST POWER ECT...THEY RETRAINED MY TRANSMISSION THE FIRST TIME & REPLACED THE VALVE BODY THE 2ND TIME. YET IT IS STILL NOT WORKING RIGHT.

SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR NEW, IT SPORADICALLY HESITATES WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS AND SOMETIMES IT LURCHES FORWARD. TWICE I HAVE ALMOST BEEN BROADSIDED WHEN PULLING OUT ONTO A HIGHWAY OR CHANGING LANES. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE IT IS UNPREDICTABLE AND I CAME VERY CLOSE TO BEING HIT WITH MY GRANDSON IN THE CAR LAST MONTH. DRIVERS THINK I DELIBERATELY SLOW DOWN AND THEY GET ANGRY WITH ME. IN MY DRIVEWAY, SOMETIMES THE ENGINE JUST REVS INSTEAD OF MOVING THE CAR LIKE IT IS IN NEUTRAL BUT I HAVE IT IN DRIVE. OTHER TIMES I TRY TO SLOWLY PULL UP BEHIND A CAR AT A STOP SIGN AND THE CAR WILL LURCH FORWARD. IT IS LIKE THE CAR SHIFTS ITSELF INTO NEUTRAL AND IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I AM SITTING STILL IN THE DRIVEWAY OR GOING 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE SEEN THE TACHOMETER REV UP WHEN THIS OCCURS. I AM GOING TO BE HIT ONE OF THESE DAYS IF SOMETHING ISN'T DONE. I ASKED THE DEALER IF OTHER JEEPS ARE DOING IT AND HE SAID, "YES", BUT DIDN'T OFFER ANY SOLUTION. THERE HAVE ALREADY BEEN THREE RECALLS ON THIS MODEL AND YEAR FOR COMPROMISED UCONNECT COMPUTER SYSTEM, WINDSHIELD WIPER SHORTING PROBLEM AND LIFT GATE, BUT THEY ARE NOT LIFE THREATENING LIKE THE CURRENT PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH, BUT SOMETIMES DAILY....NO PATTERN OR REASON. IT CAN BE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING WHEN I PULL OUT OF THE GARAGE OR ON A LONG TRIP. USUALLY IT DOESN'T LAST LONG, BUT LONG ENOUGH TO LEAVE ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OR LANE CHANGE WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I

VEHICLE DOES NOT SHIFT GEARS PROPERLY BOTH ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY. OFTEN SLAMS INTO NEXT GEAR AT UNEXPECTED TIMES OR NOT AT ALL. ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE PAST A CAR THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO PICK UP, THE CAR DID NOT EVEN GO. IT HAS EVEN CAUSED THE CAR TO JUMP FORWARD AFTER BREAKING AND COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS HAS ALL BEEN HAPPENING CONTINUOUSLY SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR. I WAS INITIALLY TOLD IT WAS A SOFTWARE ISSUE BUT NO UPDATES HAVE SEEMED TO FIX THE ISSUES AND IT JUST CONTINUES TO GET WORSE, I'M SCARED FOR MY SAFETY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION JERKED FORWARD WHEN THE CONTACT'S FOOT RELEASED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AT LEAST TEN TIMES AND THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,800.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY STALLED MORE THAN FIVE TIMES AND WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER EACH TIME FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND REPAIR. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND VARIOUS SENSORS, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO RANDOMLY PROGRESS. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A REPAIR SOLUTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A REPAIR REMEDY TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHILE DRIVING SERVICE TRANSMISSION DISPLAY CAME ON. SOON AFTER LOST ACCELERATION TO CAR UNABLE TO DRIVE

I HAVE A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. 3 RECALLS (SHIFTING, WIPERS AND LIFT GATE) STILL WAITING ON THE PARTS FOR THE LIFT GATE. MASSIVE SHIFTING ISSUES. LOW SPEEDS TRANSMISSION SLAMS INTO THE LOWER GEAR AND HESITATES TO SHIFT IN A HIGHER GEAR. SITTING IN A LINE THE CAR WILL JUMP FORWARD EVEN WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE. DRIVING APPROX. 60 MPH ON INTERSTATE ROUNDED A CURVE, THE TRANSMISSION DID A WEIRD NOISE AND THE WHOLE CAR SHIFTED TO THE RIGHT, THE CAR SLAMMED INTO THE LOWER GEAR, ALMOST LOOSING CONTROL. IF YOU DO NOT COME TO A FULL STOP BEFORE TRYING TO ACCELERATE, THERE IS A 2 TO 5 SECOND HESITATION BEFORE IT WILL DOWNSHIFT AND GO FORWARD. I HAVE ALMOST GOTTEN INTO SEVERAL ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS. DRIVING DOWN A STREET AT APPROX. 25 MILES PER HOUR THE CAR ACCELERATED THEN DOWNSHIFTED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY CAUSING A WHIP LASH EFFECT. I HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT THE DEALER EVERY TIME I HAVE TAKEN FOR A OIL CHANGE AND THEY SAY JEEP KNOWS IT A PROBLEM BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. THEY DO UPDATES ON THE SYSTEM BUT NOTHING HAS HELPED. THIS LAST TIME MADE IT WORSE. HOW LONG DOES JEEP HAVE TO "KNOW" A PROBLEM EXISTS BEFORE THEY FIX IT OR BUY THEM BACK? DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE? IT HAS BEEN VERY CLOSE SEVERAL TIMES. THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY INCIDENCES ITS HARD TO PICK JUST ONE. THIS HAS BEEN A CONSTANT PROBLEM SINCE THE FIRST "UPDATE" ABOUT 6 MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. I HAVE A SPECIAL NEEDS CHILD, I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO TRY TO TRADE THIS CAR OFF AS UPSIDE DOWN AS I AM...I NEED SOME HELP.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE THE JEEP 2014 CHEROKEE BECAUSE OF THE EASE OF TOWING THAT THE OWNERS MANUAL IN 2014 AND OTHER SOURCES OTHER SOURCES WE HAD CHECKED INDICATED. THERE WAS NO MENTION IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL OF ANY PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING OF A VEHICLE WHILE BEING FLAT TOWED BEHIND AN RV. THIS WAS THE BEST CHOICE FOR US AS IT WAS THE SIMPLEST VEHICLE IN MOTORHOME DIGESTIVE TOWING VEHICLES. SINCE WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A SEVERE FRONT-END WOBBLE WHILE TOWING. IN 2016 I RECEIVED A CARD IN THE MAIL INDICATING A PART WAS NEEDED ACTUALLY IT SAID TO PUT IN THE OWNERS MANUAL BUT IN READING IT INDICATED A WIRING KIT WAS REQUIRED. EXPLORE THIS ITEM WITH MY DEALER THE FIRST TIME HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE SECOND TIME I BROUGHT IN A PART NUMBER THAT I HAD FOUND IN THE MOTORHOME MAGAZINE. I GAVE HIM THE PART NUMBER THEY RESEARCHED IT AND FOUND THAT THIS WAS A WIRING KIT REQUIRED FOR FLAT TOWING. MY ASSUMPTION WAS SINCE IT WAS REQUIRED IT WAS SOME SORT OF RECALL. TO MY SURPRISE IT COST ME OVER $500 AND IN CONTACTING CHRYSLER THEY REFUSE TO REIMBURSE ME OR EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE. EVEN THE 2016 LITERATURE REGARDING FLAT TOWING A JEEP CHEROKEE DID NOT INDICATE THE REQUIREMENT OF A WIRING KIT SO MY ASSUMPTION IS THEY ARE NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THIS PROBLEM. IT IS A SEVERE SAFETY PROBLEM FOR PEOPLE WHO BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FOR FLAT TOWING BEHIND AN RV. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOU LOOKING INTO THIS MATTER AND GETTING BACK TO ME WITH ANY INFORMATION OR RESULTS THAT YOU MAY FIND. REGARDS [X

DRIVERS SIDE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER KEEPS GOING BLACK SO I CAN NOT SEE THE MILEAGE, GAS GAUGE, SPEEDOMETER OR ANY OTHER WARNING LIGHTS THAT MIGHT BE PRESENT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES AND THEY JUST KEEP RESETTING AND RECONFIGURE THE MODULES AND A FEW MONTHS LATER IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL THE CLUSTER UNIT WAS FINALLY REPLACED AND NOW AGAIN THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING BUT JUST OUT OF THE BLUE WHEN I GO TO START THE VEHICLE THE DASH WILL NOT LIGHT UP, ALL RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE UP TO DATE. I BOUGHT THE CHEROKEE IN MAY 10, 2014 AND IT WAS IN THE SHOP WITH THIS ISSUE ON APRIL 4, 2015 AND HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP OFF AN ON SINCE THAT TIME. IT IS CURRENTLY AS OF THIS MOMENT IN THE SHOP FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING A LOANER CAR.

WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, WHEN THE "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" WARNING CAME ON. CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER. TURNED CAR OFF, SAT FOR A FEW MINUTES, RESTARTED CAR, "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" LIGHT WAS OFF, BUT SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND REMAINED ON. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE CAR. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES, I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER. WAITING TO HEAR BACK WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.

I HAVE RECEIVED 2 SAFETY RECALLS R40/NHTSA 15V-461 S 27/ NHTSA 16V-240 I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TWICE TO THE DEALER FOR THE BUCKING IN THE TRANSMISSION. I ATTEMPTED TO BRING IN THE VEHICLE EARLY AUGUST APPT. TODAY IS 7/25, I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THERE WAS TIME FOR AN OIL CHANGE, HOWEVER I NEED TO WAIT TILL 8/29 TO ADDRESS THE RECALLS. THE RECALLS SOUND URGENT AND I DRIVE EVERYDAY. THE DEALERSHIP IS MAKING ME WAIT OVER 1 MONTH. PLEASE HELP DEALER IS HUDSON CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM 625 ROUTE 440 JERSEY CITY, NJ 07304 THANK YOU *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO SHIFT PROPERLY AND THERE WAS CONSTANT UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WHEN THE GEARS CHANGED. WHILE CHANGING GEARS TO PULL INTO THE DRIVEWAY, THE VEHICLE SURGED FORWARD INTO THE GARAGE WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH FORCE WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER MORE THAN FIVE TIMES, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE CONTINUED AT RANDOM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE TRANSMISSION IN THE 2014 AND 2015 JEEP WAS THE FIRST TO USE 9-SPEED. IT CREATES A ROUGH CHANGE IN GEARS, OFTEN TIMES STALLING WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE (INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS), AND CREATING A BUMPY RIDE. THE SOFTWARE "FIX" RECOMMENDED BY JEEP DOES NOTHING TO FIX THE ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED SEVERE VEERING WHILE BEING TOWED BY THE CONTACT'S MOTORHOME.

TRANSMISSION ISSUES. BROUGHT TO THE DEALER TWICE IN ONE WEEK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A DITCH. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE COLLAR BONE. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE SPINE, FACIAL LACERATIONS, AND A FRACTURED VERTEBRAE. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

PURCHASED VEHICLE FOR FLAT TOWING BEHIND MOTORHOME. AT SPEED, CAR STEERING IS AFFECTED AND CAUSES CAR TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AS WELL AS MOTORHOME.CONDITION HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE FLAT TOWING VEHICLE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AS IT CAUSES A POTENTIAL LOSS OF CONTROL OF MOTORHOME AT SPEED.

THE TRANSMISSION HAS HAD ISSUES SINCE I GOT THE CAR, THE DEALER HAS DONE SEVERAL SOFTWARE UPDATES BUT NONE COMPLETELY SOLVE THE ISSUE. THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT WOBBLES WHEN IT ACCELERATES FROM A STOP AND THEY CANNOT SEEM TO FIX THIS PROBLEM OR ADMIT THAT THERE IS ONE. ALSO, WHEN YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL IT MAKES A GRINDING OR WHINING NOISE AND I HAVE BROUGHT IT BACK TWICE FOR THIS. THEY JUST GREASE THE SYSTEM AND IT STAYS QUIET FOR MAYBE 10 MILES. I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD LEAD TO A MUCH BIGGER ISSUE IN TERMS OF SAFETY IF IT LOSES STEERING TO SOME DEGREE.

THE TRANSMISSION/GEAR BOX HAS BEEN CONSISTENTLY TERRIBLE AND HAS ONLY WORSENED WITH TIME. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 2 YEARS, AND THE TRANSMISSION JUST BANGS AROUND. MANY TIMES, I AM ON THE GAS AND TAP THE BREAKS TO RE-ACCELERATE TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION SPIN, THEN ENGAGE AND BANG THE CAR FORWARD. I IMAGINE THE TRANSMISSION HAS ONLY A YEAR OR TWO LEFT BEFORE IT WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWN A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 72 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE COMPUTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V240000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

2014 JEEP CHEROKEE, BOUGHT USED IN OCT 2015, WITH 32000 MILES. ON 10 JULY 2016, WHILE DRIVING UNDER 25 MPH ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, SHUT OFF UNEXPECTEDLY, DISPLAYING "SERVICE TRANSMISSION IMMEDIATELY", WITH THE CHECK ENGINE ICON ILLUMINATED. VEHICLE THEN WAS PARKED AND SAT FOR 10 MIN APPROX, THEN STARTED AND DROVE APPROX 1/4 MILE TO HOME, TRANSMISSION LIGHT QUIT, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON. NEXT MORNING NO INDICATION OF ANY ISSUES, AND NO TRACE OF A PROBLEM, BUT NOW SHIFTS SLUGGISHLY INTO 2ND AND 3RD GEARS. WHAT IF THIS HAD HAPPENED ON INTERSTATE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS? ALL WOULD BE DEAD IN VEHICLE!! I LIVE IN BEAVERCREEK OHIO AND JEEP NOW HAS APPROX 49000 MILES ON IT.

2014 JEEP CHEROKEE SHIFTS ROUGH IN LOWER GEARS, SHIFTS INTO NEUTRAL WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY OR COMING DOWN HILLS, AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL WHEN STEPPING ON GAS AND MOVING OUT INTO TRAFFIC, AND TRANSMISSION SLIPPING. WHEN TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AT LEAST 2 TIMES, I REPORTED THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE. DEALERSHIP (ATLANTIC CHRYSLER JEEP) REPORTED ON SERVICE RECEIPT, "UNABLE TO DUPLICATE CONCERN ON ROAD TEST".

SINCE GETTING THIS VEHICLE IN OCT. 2014 WE HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH IT. THE CAR SWITCHES GEARS WHEN IT SHOULDN'T AND LUNGES FORWARD. ALSO WHEN YOU SLOW DOWN TO STOP THE CAR LURCHES AND SHAKES BEFORE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. SOMETIMES YOU CAN FEEL THE PEDAL PUMPING UNDER YOUR FOOT WHEN YOU ARE MOVING SLOWLY IN TRAFFIC. WHENEVER YOU ARE GOING UP ANY TYPE OF HILL THE ENGINE SOUNDS LIKE IT IS GOING TO EXPLODE. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED IT NUMEROUS TIMES AND CONTINUE TO JUST BE TOLD THAT IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE'S. THERE IS ALSO A CLICKING NOISE BY THE TIRES WHENEVER YOUR MAKE A TURN. WE ALSO TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS AND THEY CLAIM THEY DIDN'T NOTICE ANYTHING. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE WHEEL IS GOING TO FALL OFF! WE SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE PROBLEMS WITH A CAR THAT HAS LESS THAN 20,000 MILES ON IT! I CANNOT WAIT TO GET RID OF THIS JEEP. I'VE HAD OLDER CARS IN THE PAST AND HAD NOT NEARLY THE AMOUNT OF PROBLEMS AS I HAVE HAD WITH THIS JEEP. IT DOESN'T FEEL SAFE TO DRIVE. JEEP IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE YET THEY CONTINUE TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 TO 70 MPH, MY CAR WOULD GO IN TO SAFE MODE THE MASSAGE SAID. "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" "SERVICE PARK BRAKE" THE ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION LIGHTS CAME ON TO. I HAD TO COAST OVER TO THE BRAKE DOWN LANE. I WOULD TURN THE CAR OFF WAIT FOR 2TO 3 MIN'S THEN RESTART THE CAR. ALL MASSAGES CLEARED BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON. THE NEXT DAY THE ENGINE LIGHT CLEARED I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. HE SAID, NO LIGHTS NO CODES NO PROBLEM. THIS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN ABOUT 10 TIMES OVER 5 MONTHS. EVERY TIME THE CAR WENT IN FOR A RECALL I WOULD TELL THEM. THE SAME ANSWER, NO LIGHTS NO CODES NO PROBLEM. FINALE I HAD A PROBLEM WITH ELECTRICAL. AFTER 3 DAYS THEY FOUND A PINCHED WIRE IN THE MAIN HARNESS GOING THROUGH THE FIRE WALL. THIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME THE NEXT TIME THE CAR FAILED IN SAFE MODE ( DO NOT SHUT IT OFF ), HAVE IT TOWED WITH THE CAR RUNNING , THIS WAY THEY COULD CHECK THE CODES IN THE FAIL MODE. AFTER 5 MORE TIMES, IT HAPPENED WHEN THE DEALERSHIP WAS OPEN. THEY DID A SOFTWARE UPGRADE. A SOFTWARE 6 FLASH FOR TCM AND A PCM. 3 DAYS LATER ON JULY 4 IT HAPPENED 4 TIMES, THEN 4 TIMES GOING TO WORK AT NIGHT ON JULY 4 FOR JULY 5. THEN ON JULY 5 GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP . I HAD IT TOWED IN SAFE MODE. AFTER ABOUT 2 HOURS THEY CALLED ME. IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION. THEY SAID THERE ARE NONE IN THE USA, THEY ARE ON BACK ORDER, THERE IS NO TIME FRAME THEY CAN GIVE ME TO HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE. I DID GET A RENT A CAR, BUT MY WIFE AND I CAN NOT GO KAYAKING. NO

WHILE DRIVING, TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY SHIFTS INTO NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE LOSES THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. ALL YOU CAN DO IS (HOPEFULLY) STEER IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT GETTING HIT. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW - THE FIRST TIME IN NOVEMBER 2015, THE SECOND IN JUNE 2016. ON BOTH OCCASIONS I HAVE TAKEN IT TO OUR LOCAL JEEP DEALER FOR REPAIR. ALL THEY DO IS "UPDATE" THE SOFTWARE. THIS CLEARLY ISN'T WORKING. I CALLED THE "JEEP CARES" HOTLINE AND THEY REFUSE TO TALK ABOUT THE ISSUE, REFERRING ME BACK TO THE LOCAL DEALER. THE LOCAL DEALER DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO BESIDES UPDATE THE SOFTWARE. THIS IS REALLY DANGEROUS. HAD WE BEEN TRAVELLING ON A BUSY FREEWAY WITH MULTIPLE LANES WHEN THIS HAPPENED, IT WOULD LIKELY HAVE CAUSED A CRASH. YOU LOSE THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE! ALL YOU CAN DO IS STEER! BOTH TIMES THAT IT HAS HAPPENED WE HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND 60 MPH ON RURAL HIGHWAYS.

EXPERIENCING HARD SHIFTS IN THE ZF 9-SPEED TRANSMISSION. THIS ALSO INCLUDES A DELAYED 1ST GEAR INITIATION, IT REGULARLY TAKES UP TO A SECOND FROM WHEN THE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED TO WHEN 1ST GEAR GETS INITIATED. OFTEN GET HARD SHIFTS IN 2ND AND 3RD GEAR AS WELL. THESE EVENTS OCCUR ON A REGULAR BASIS.

ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO, AS I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IN MY 14' JEEP CHEROKEE, THE CLUSTER READ BRAKE TO PARK WHEN I WAS DRIVING UP HILL AND THE SHIFTER WAS STILL IN DRIVE. WHEN THIS OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE BEGIN TO SLOW DOWN AND CAME TO DEAD STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY WHERE THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME FROM BEHIND. AT THIS POINT I PUT THE SHIFTER INTO PARK TURNED OFF THE JEEP, TURNED BACK ON THE JEEP AND DROVE IT. THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT WENT ON AND I DECIDED TO TAKE INTO THE DEALERSHIP AS THE JEEP IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALERSHIP RETAINED THE JEEP FOR ABOUT A WEEK, THEY RAN UPDATES AND LOOKED AT THE JEEP. THEY DO NOT WHY IT OCCURRED OR IF THE UPDATES THEY DID RESOLVED THE SHIFTING ISSUE. AT THIS POINT, I REFUSED TO DRIVE THE JEEP HOME FOR THE CONCERN OF MY SAFETY THAT IT MIGHT HAPPEN AGAIN.

I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE AND MY CAR REFUSED TO GO INTO REVERSE, BUT WOULD GO FORWARD INSTEAD. I ENDED UP HAVING TO STOP THE ENGINE AND RESTART THE CAR IN ORDER TO GET IT TO GO INTO REVERSE. A WEEK LATER, I WAS DRIVING AND STOPPED FOR A MINUTE BY PUTTING MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND WHEN I WENT TO CONTINUE MY CAR WOULD NOT GO FORWARD. CARS WERE HONKING THEIR HORNS AT ME BUT I COULD NOT GET IT TO GO FORWARD. FINALLY I LIGHTLY TOUCHED THE IGNITION SWITCH AND THE CAR PROCEEDED TO DRIVE FORWARD. WHEN I SPOKE TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT, THEY SAID THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM AT LEAST 5 TIMES BEFORE THEY WOULD ADDRESS IT. BOTH INCIDENTS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS IN BUSY AREAS IN OUR TOWN.

MIRROR (SIDE VIEWS) ARE TOO SMALL FOR ADEQUATE VISIBILITY, DEALERSHIP OFFERS NO AFTERMARKET MIRRORS THAT ARE LARGER. HEAD RESTRAINT CAUSES A POSTURE THAT IS POOR FOR DRIVING AND RESULTS IN PAIN IN NECK, BACK, AND HEAD. HEAD RESTRAINT INTERFERES WITH REAR VIEW.

MY JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE HAS BEEN PLAGUED WITH TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. AT 20,000 MILES TRANSMISSION JERKED AND CAUSED THE CAR TO BASICALLY STOP UNEXPECTED ON THE ROAD. DEATH TRAP! I'M AT 45,000 MILES AND BACK STARTING TO GO OUT AGAIN. THIS VEHICLE HAS MAJOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES AND IT'S NO SECRET. A LADY EVEN STOPPED ME IN HOLLYWOOD AND PULLED UP NEXT TO ME AND ASKED IF I EVER EXPERIENCED JERKING AND STOPPING WITH THE VEHICLE. ARE YOU KIDDING ME THIS IS SO RAMPED AND NEEDS TO BE FULLY RECALLED BEFORE PEOPLE GET KILLED!

VEHICLE HAS STALLED TWICE AT A 30 MPH RATE OF SPEED DUE TO OIL LOW NOT EMPTY. IF VEHICLE SHOULD FALL BELOW 2 QUARTS OF OIL, VEHICLE MAY STALL AND STOP WORKING PROPERLY WHILE IN MOTION. MY VEHICLE HOLD 4-5 QUARTS OF OIL AND WAS NOT DUE FOR AN OILCHANGE AND STALLED TWICE WHILE ON RESIDENTIAL ROAD. DEALER STATED MY VEHICLE SHOULD REMIAN A FULL LEVEL OF OIL IN ORDER FOR IT TO NOT STALL!!! NO OIL LEAKS OR MECHANICAL ISSUES WERE FOUND DURING SERVICE.

I HAVE A 2014 JEEP AND EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS GEARS, MOSTLY IF I AM SLOWING DOWN BUT IT ALSO DOES IT WHEN I AM ACCELERATING. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW AND THE DEALER SAYS IT NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT IT KEEPS COMING ON AND OFF I HAVE TOLD THE DEALER ABOUT THIS AND IT HAS TAKEN THEM MONTHS TO FINALLY LISTEN TO ME. THEN I FIND OUT THAT THERE IS AND ELECTRICALL PROBLEM, HONESTLY WHAT ELSE CAN GO WRONG. I MEAN SERIOUSLY 6 RECALLS ALREADY AND I AM SURE THERE IS NO NEED FOR THIS. TO BE QUITE HONEST I WAS TOLD TODAY THAT MY CAR WAS NO SAFE TO DRIVE SUE TO THE ELECTRICAL ISSUE.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUNNING FINE, UNTIL MONDAY JUNE 27, 2016 IT STALLED AT A STOP LIGHT, A FEW MINUTES LATER IT CRANKED AND I WAS ON MY WAY. YESTERDAY JUNE 28, 2016 IT DID THE SAME THING. THEN TODAY JUNE 29,2016 IT STALLED AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND SAID SERVICE TRANSMISSION. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION IN THESE VEHICLES. THIS JUST IS NOT RIGHT.

THIS VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION SLIPS IN AND OUT OF GEAR WITHOUT WARNING. THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO "JERK" AT ANY GIVEN TIME. IT SOMETIMES HAPPENS AS I AM ACCELERATING, BUT ALSO HAPPENS AS I SLOW DOWN SO THERE IS NO DEFINITE ACTION THAT IS BEING PERFORMED TO CAUSE THIS PROBLEM.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE, IT WILL GO INTO NEUTRAL SAFETY MODE. THIS WILL NOT ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO MOVE. IT HAS DONE THIS ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. EACH TIME STRANDING THE VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND ON 3 OF THE OCCASIONS THE POLICE HAVE BEEN CALLED TO ENSURE SAFETY. IT HAS TO BE TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER AND THE FIRST AND THIRD TIME WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THE VALVE BODY NEEDED REPLACED. THE FIRST TIME WAS IN JAN OF 2016 AND IT WENT UNTIL MAY BEFORE THE 2ND TIME OCCURRED. WE NOW HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE IN THE GARAGE FOR ALL BESIDES 2 WEEKS UNTIL IT HAS DONE IT FOR THE 4TH TIME. THE THIRD TIME WE HAD IT FOR 3 HOURS. WE WERE TOLD CHRYSLER WOULD NOTT REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION ON THE LAST VISIT. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY REPORTS OF TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS REPORTED TO CHRYSLER AND THAT THEY ARE AVOIDING A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES. WHEN THESE VEHICLES GO INTO NEATRAL SAFETY MODE. IT LEAVE THE OPERATOR WITHOUT A MEANS TO MOVE OUT OF TRAFFIC.

THIS CAR IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN! THE TRANSMISSION (I-4 SPECIFICALLY FOR ME) BUCKLES AND LUNGES IN GEARS 1-3. IT GETS STUCK IN GEAR, IT GOES INTO 2 GEARS AT THE SAME TIME. IT HAS GOTTEN STUCK ON THE ACCELERATION. I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THIS CAR IN TRAFFIC, OR ANYWHERE I NEED TO GO SLOWLY SINCE IT DOES NOT ALWAYS RESPOND WHEN I BRAKE OR GIVE IT GAS. I WOULDN'T PUT MY WORST ENEMY IN THIS CAR! THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS STARTED ON SAY 1 WITH 100 MILES ON THE CAR, AND HAVE KEPT GOING FOR THE PAST 2.5 YEARS. I HAVE HAD A TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT AND THAT DID NOT HELP.

THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS CAR MAKES IT A DEATH TRAP. I HAVE EXPERIENCED: THE CAR NOT TURNING ON OR SHUTTING OFF ON ITS OWN (WHILE DRIVING) DUE TO NOT ENOUGH OIL IN THE ENGINE, LUNGING, DELAYED ACCELERATION, MISSING GEARS WHEN SHIFTING, LOUD BANGS AND NOISES WHEN SHIFTING, INDICATOR LIGHTS MALFUNCTIONING, THE LIST GOES ON. I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS (EXCLUDING THE 6 TIMES FOR RECALLS) AND THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO FIX THESE ISSUES. I CAN'T DRIVE THIS CAR BECAUSE I'M SCARED I'LL DIE I CAN'T SELL THIS CAR BECAUSE IT HAS LOST ALL VALUE I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER CAR RIGHT NOW

TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 60 MPH ON A HIGHWAY. LOST POWER, LOST POWER STEERING. COULD BARELY STEER CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TURNED OFF, WAITED, RESTARTED AND IT RAN FINE. SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON FOR A WHILE, THEN WENT OFF AFTER ABOUT 50 MILES. THIS HAPPENED FOR THE SECOND TIME ON JUNE 27, 2016. AFTER THE FIRST TIME SEVERAL MONTHS AGO WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A SOFTWARE UPDATE, THIS IS REALLY DANGEROUS. LOSING POWER AND POWER STEERING WHILE TRAVELING DOWN A HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT IF IT HAPPENED IN TRAFFIC. LUCKILY FOR US, TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT SO WE WE ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD ON BOTH TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED. MUST BE A SOFTWARE DEFECT, AS THE ENGINE IS RUNNING FINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHEN THE IGNITION WAS TURNED TO THE ON POSITION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS ON AN INCLINE, IT WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WENT INTO NEUTRAL AND DRIFTED BACKWARDS. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND THE SPEED REDUCED. THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE FAILURES RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 22,000.

MY JEEP STALLS WHILE IT SHIFTS GEAR WHILE SLOWING DOWN. IF I ANTICIPATE THE STOP SIGN OR LIGHT, AND SLOW DOWN GRADUALLY LONG BEFORE I GET TO THE STOP SIGN OR LIGHT, IT PREVENTS STALLS IN MOST CASES. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS YOU CAN IMAGINE WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE AND BETWEEN LANES, PERHAPS. THE LAST TIME I WAS AT MY USUAL DEALERSHIP WAS DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT BEING ON AND AFTER A FEW DAYS, THAT ISSUE APPEAR TO BE CORRECTED, NOW THIS. IF I COULD I WOULD SIMPLY GET RID OF THIS VEHICLE.

FROM THE DAY I PURCHASED MY 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE, IT HAS BEEN SHIFTING ROUGHLY. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY AND SAID SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID A "RELEARN," WHATEVER THAT MEANS. IT DID NOTHING. THEY SAID I HAD TO DRIVE IT A WHILE SO THAT IT WOULD LEARN MY DRIVING BEHAVIOR. IT DIDN'T SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE AND SAID TO DRIVE IT 500 MILES BEFORE THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION WOULD SETTLE DOWN. AGAIN, NO CHANGE AND I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP SAID NOTHING COULD BE DONE BUT I SHOULD DRIVE IT NOW 10,000 MILES. AFTER 10,000 MILES I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THAT IS THE WAY IT IS SUPPOSED TO RUN. I'VE DRIVEN MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF VEHICLES OVER MY LIFE, FROM DUMP TRUCKS TO CADILLACS AND I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A TRANSMISSION SHIFTING SO ROUGHLY OR JERKING SO BAD IN ANY OF THEM LIKE IT DOES IN THE 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. THIS IS THE FIRST VEHICLE THAT I'VE ACTUALLY HATED TO DRIVE AND I BELIEVE THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BUY IT BACK. I WOULD BE OUT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IS I TRADED IT IN.

TRANSMISSION FAILED, STARTING TO WORK AND SELECTED DRIVE AND A HUGE CLANK! WOULD NOT GO INTO ANY GEAR. TOW TRUCK, DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS. IT WAS A SOLENOID IN THE TRANSMISSION THAT HAD FAILED.

THE TRANSMISSION JUMPS WHEN SHIFTING FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. THE TRANSMISSION ALSO "DROPS" WHEN SHIFTING OUT OF PARK TO REVERSE.
