2015 Jeep Cherokee complaints

RMP'S SPIKE WHEN TRYING TO STOP LUNGING VEHICLE FORWARD, COASTING WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL ON INTERSTATE AT 70 VEHICLE RPM'S JUMPED UP CAUSING IT TO INCREASE SPEED LUNGING FORWARD TO 80 MPH AS IF ACCELERATOR IS PUSHED, LETTING OFF GAS TO SLOW DOWN VEHICLE WILL LUNGE FORWARD AS IF YOU WERE APPLYING GAS AND RPM'S JUMP UP, IF FOOT ISN'T ON BREAK YOU WOULD HIT SOMEONE, VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND HAS ALREADY ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HIT SOMEONE 4 TIMES. DOESN'T DO IT ALL THE TIME IT AND IS INTERMITTENT. PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 6 TIMES. HAS BEEN TO DEALER OVER 30 DAYS AND ONLY HAS 5,000 MILES ON IT. THEY SAY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND NO ONE WANTS TO FIX PROBLEM. STARTED HAPPING AT 2,000 MILES.

I HAD JUST LEFT THE DEALERSHIP FOR A WARRANTY ISSUE AND WAS 2 MILES FROM THE DEALERSHIP WHEN THE HOOD FLEW OPEN BLINDING ME I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ASKED THAT I CALL CHRYSLER AS THE SAFETY LATCH SHOULD HAVE HELD CHRYSLER SENT AN INVESTIGATOR OUT WHO IN FRONT OF MYSELF THE DEALERSHIPS SERVICE MANAGER AND ANOTHER PERSON TOLD US THAT THE SAFETY LATCH WAS IMPROPERLY ALIGNED AND DID NOT HOLD I ASKESKED THE INVESTIGATION DEPRTMENT FOR A COPY OF THE INVESTIGATION REPORT AND THEY TOLD ME NO IT WAS THERE PROPERTY AND WOULD NOT SUPPLY ME WITH A COPY.I WAS ON HWY 195 IN WA. STATE SOUTHBOUND OUT OF PULLMAN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE POWER LIFTGATE FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LIFTGATE WOULD NOT CLOSE. WHEN MANUALLY CLOSED, THE LOCK WOULD NOT ENGAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE INSPECTED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE POWER LIFTGATE CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN: 15V393000 (STRUCTURE); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,500. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

BACK WINDOW BROKE. NO IDEA WHERE IT CAME FROM OR HOW IT STARTED AS I WAS SITTING IN MY HOME AND THE CAR WAS PARKED OUTSIDE. THE CAR IS NOT EVEN A YEAR OLD. TWO HOLES ON THE SIDES OF THE BACK WINDOW AT FIRST. THE WINDOW WAS CRACKED ACROSS THE WINDOW, COULD STILL HEAR IT CRACKING WHEN I SAW. THEN THE NEXT MORNING THE TOP HALF OF THE WINDOW WAS CRACKED. IS THIS A DEFECT?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT CHANGE GEARS WHEN PROMPTED AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. IN ADDITION, THERE WAS AN ODOR OF BURNING RUBBER AND A CLICKING NOISE FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.

PURCHASED VEHICLE NEW, JULY 2015. ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 35 MPH TO 45 MPH, VEHICLES AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED FOR NO REASON CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DRAMATICALLY IN TRAFFIC. FIRST INSTANCE WAS DRIVING ON COUNTRY ROAD, SECOND INSTANCE ON MAJOR INTERSTATE, THIRD INSTANCE DRIVING ON CITY ROAD. IN ADDITION, ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED FOR NO REASON WHEN VEHICLE IS IN BACKING MODE. THIS HAS OCCURRED WHILE BACKING INTO PARKING SPACES AND INTO MY GARAGE. IN ALL INSTANCES, THE BRAKING WARNING SYSTEM ENGAGED AUTOMATICALLY. HAS BEEN AT DEALERSHIP TWICE FOR THESE TWO PROBLEMS, MOST RECENT VISIT, DEALERSHIP WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING ENGAGING WHEN IT SHOULD NOT HAVE WHILE IN BACKING MODE. NO RESOLUTION FROM DEALERSHIP AT THIS POINT.

NEW 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE WITH 4K MILES ON IT SUDDENLY TURNED ITSELF OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. NO WARNING OTHER THAN A MESSAGE ON THE DASH TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK TO CHANGE GEARS. VERY DANGEROUS, LOST CONTROL OF POWER STEERING, GAS AND BRAKES. WAS ABLE TO PUT CAR IN PARK ON SIDE OF ROAD, RESTART IT AND GET HOME. IT HAPPENED AGAIN THE NEXT MORNING AND WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. SERVICE DEPT. RAN ALL UPDATES AND THE CAR SHUT OFF ON THEM WHILE TESTING IT TOO. HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 2 WEEKS AND THEY SAY IT WAS DUE TO EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND AR REPLACING THE ENGINE. I DON'T BELIEVE THIS TO THE CAUSE; NEVER GOT A WARNING LIGHT AT ALL AND CAR DOES RESTART AND RUN AFTER IT SHUTS ITSELF OFF. SCARED TO DRIVE IT ONCE I GET IT BACK AGAIN, IT IS REALLY LIKE A DEATH TRAP WHEN IT SHUTS OFF. YOU ARE THE MERCY OF ALL THE DRIVERS AROUND YOU TO GET OUT OF YOUR WAY. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT OR GET KILLED IF THEY DON'T FIGURE THIS OUT SOON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE CV AXLES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO PART UNAVAILABILITY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.

I WAS BACKING UP MY DAUGHTERS DRIVEWAY. HER DRIVEWAY IS A LITTLE STEEP AND WHEN I WENT TO GIVE THE JEEP MORE GAS THE RPMS DROPPED FROM 1500 TO IDLE AND THEN BACK TO 1500 RPMS REALLY QUICK, IT DID THIS A COUPLE TIMES. THE DOG ENDED UP ON THE FLOOR OF THE CAR, FRIENDS STANDING OUTSIDE THE CAR THOUGH I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE. I FINALLY HAD TO TURN THE JEEP AROUND AND GO UP HER DRIVEWAY IN THE FORWARD DIRECTION. WE WENT OUT TO EAT LATER AND WHEN I CAME BACK I TRIED BACKING UP HER DRIVEWAY AGAIN AND IT DID THE SAME THING. I TOOK THE JEEP INTO THE DEALER ON 6/29/15 WITH 990 MILES ON IT. THE DEALER UPDATED THE PCM AND TCM AND RETESTED IT BUT COULD NOT GET IT TO FAIL. IT FAILED AGAIN ABOUT 3 MONTHS LATER ON LABOR DAY WEEKEND, 2015. AGAIN BACKING UP MY DAUGHTERS DRIVEWAY. I CONTACTED THE JEEP SERVICE MANAGER AND HE SAID THEY PROBABLY CAN'T FIX IT IF IT DOESN'T SET A CODE. (GREAT) THE JEEP HASN'T FAILED BACKING UP AGAIN BUT IT DID FAIL ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MILES PER HOUR COMPLETELY SHUTTING DOWN AND NOT RESTARTING. (SEE COMPLAINT #10819212) LIKE OTHER JEEP OWNERS I'VE NOTICED THE JEEP STAYS IN THIRD GEAR TO LONG AT LOW SPEED, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN IN FRONT OF ON COMING TRAFFIC. I'VE RESORTED TO DOWN SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION MYSELF SO I CAN HAVE SOME POWER TO MAKE THE TURN WITHOUT GETTING HIT. ( NOTE TO CHRYSLER, I'M A FIRST TIME JEEP BUYER, KEEP DOING NOTHING ABOUT THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND YOU CAN FIND YOUR JEEP AT A FORD OR CHEVY DEALERSHIP.....

MY TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SLIPPING SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE A YEAR AGO, (12-28-15) APPX, THEY SAID THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM, BUT IT HAS RECENTLY BECAME WORSE THAT IT WAS ORIGINALLY. WHEN I'M STOPPED AND THEN BEGIN TO START GOING AGAIN THE CAR HESITATES FOR ABOUT 3-5 SECONDS THEN IT JERKS AND GOES. IT ALSO SEEMS TO DOWNSHIFT ON ITS OWN OR NOT AT ALL.

THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL INSTANCES OF SLOW RESPONSE FROM THE TRANSMISSION. HEADING SOUTH AT A HIGHWAY INTERSECTION WHERE CROSS TRAFFIC DOES NOT STOP, I WAITED AT THE STOP SIGN UNTIL TRAFFIC WAS CLEAR TO THE EAST. I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND DIDN'T GET MUCH RESPONSE UNTIL TRAFFIC WAS CLOSE ENOUGH THAT I DEBATED ABOUT NOT CROSSING AND THE CAR SUDDENLY MOVED INTO THE LANES OF TRAFFIC. I WAS ABLE TO CROSS TO THE DIVIDER BEFORE BEING BROADSIDED BECAUSE TRAFFIC SLOWED FOR ME. ANOTHER INCIDENT INVOLVES PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. I LIVE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY SO I AM VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN I PULL OUT. AS I TURNED RIGHT FROM MY DRIVEWAY MY CAR DIDN'T DO MORE THAN CREEP ALONG EVEN THOUGH IT HAD GONE DOWN THE DRIVE JUST FINE. I GOT THE RPM UP TO 6 ON THE GAUGE (7 IS RED) WHEN IT SUDDENLY "CAUGHT" AND TOOK OFF. A CAR THAT HAD BEEN A LONG DISTANCE BACK CAME VERY CLOSE TO REAR-ENDING ME. ON ANOTHER OCCASION AS I PULLED UP BEHIND A CAR AT A LIGHT, MY CAR WAS STOPPING AND THEN SUDDENLY LURCHED FORWARD BEFORE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. I HADN'T STOPPED BRAKING OR PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR. I WOULD HAVE HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME IF I HADN'T BEEN LEAVING A FAIR AMOUNT OF ROOM BETWEEN US. THE VARIABILITY AND UNPREDICTABILITY OF THIS CAR IS WHAT MAKES IT SO DANGEROUS. IT HAS SMALL ISSUES LIKE DIFFICULTY CLIMBING HILLS ON OCCASION OR JUMPING WHEN IT SHIFTS DURING NORMAL DRIVING BUT I HAVE CHANGED MY ROUTES (CHOOSE STOPLIGHTS TO CROSS HIGHWAYS) AND DRIVING STYLE (LEAVE LOTS OF ROOM BETWEEN IT AND OTHER CAR

I WAS TRAVELING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I PUT THE JEEP'S TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL AND IT WOULD NOT START. I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY SINCE IT WAS VERY LIGHT TRAFFIC. I TRIED STARTING THE JEEP WITH THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER IN PARK AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I REMOVED THE KEY FOB FROM THE START/RUN SWITCH AND TRIED LOCKING & UNLOCKING THE CAR DOORS, AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I TRIED THE REMOTE START BUTTON,AND AGAIN, NOTHING HAPPENED. MY WIFE GAVE ME HER KEY FOB AND THE JEEP STARTED RIGHT UP AND RAN OKAY. THERE WERE NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH SHOWING ANY PROBLEMS. WHEN I GOT TO MY DESTINATION AFTER ANOTHER 10 MINUTES OF TRAVEL I TRIED MY KEY FOB AGAIN AND THE JEEP STARTED OKAY. I USED MY KEY FOB ON THE RETURN TRIP OF 67 MILES WITH NO PROBLEMS. THERE IS AN UNKNOWN CAUSE OF THE INCIDENT. COULD IT BE THE KEY FOB OR THE ELECTRONICS THAT CONTROL ENGINE RUNNING MODE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V676000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING); 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 NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

DANGEROUS 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE WITH 853 MILES. FIRST WEEK OF OWNERSHIP I NOTICED A VERY ODD SHIFTING WERE THE JEEP WOULD LUNG FORWARD FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR AT ABOUT 5MPH, HARD SHIFTS, AND WAS STRUGGLING TO FIND GEARS AT 35-40MPH ALONG WITH A NONRESPONSIVE GAS PEDAL THAT SPOOKED ME DURING MANY ACCELERATION INSTANCES OF SLOW SPEEDS AND HIGHWAY SPEEDS. TOOK INTO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT FROM AND EXPLAINED WHAT WAS BEING EXPERIENCED, WITH THE BACK UP CAMERA BEING SATURATED WITH LIGHT, AND GAS DOOR THAT WAS NOT ALIGNED WITH THE BODY. THEY CHECKED FOR CODES BUT A SERVICE LIGHT NEVER APPEARED. WAS TOLD THERE WERE UPDATES THAT NEED TO BE INSTALLED. AFTER THE UPDATE,WHICH I ASSUMED WAS A POWER TRAIN UPDATE FOR THE TRANSMISSION. LEFT DEALERSHIP AND IT ALL STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN WITH THE TRANSMISSION. SO WAS TOLD BY A SERVICE REP NEED TO LET THE TRANSMISSION LEARN MY DRIVING HABITS WHITH NO HARSH ACCELERATION BECAUSE OF THE 350 MILE BREAKIN PERIOD. DROVE FOR A WHILE TOO SEE IF IT WOULD SMOOTH OUT. NOPE IT DIDN'T IT STARTED HAVING AN ODD FEELING WHEN PUT IN DRIVE AND MOVING FORWARD LIKE THE CLUTCHS IN THE TRANSMISSION WERE SLIPPING WHICH GIVES THE SENSATION OF WOBBLE VIBRRATION. RETURNED IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN FOR SECOND TIME DUE TO WHEN IN THE MID DEL OF AN INTERSECTION WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN WITH APPROPRIATE THROTTLE APPLIED IT SUDDENLY LOSS POWER WITH TRAFFIC COMING FROM OPPOSITE DIRECTION SO I HAD TO WOT THE GAS PEDAL TO GET IT TO MOVE THEN IT RESPONDED WITH

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO THIRD GEAR AND DOWNSHIFTED TO THE NEXT GEAR ON ITS OWN. THE VEHICLE ALSO JERKED WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH WITHOUT WARNING. IN ADDITION, WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS ENGAGED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS UPDATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,200. ...UPDATED 02/03/16 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL AND WIRING HARNESS. THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS A LITTLE BETTER, BUT THERE WAS STILL SOME HARD SHIFTING AND THE DOWN SHIFTING FROM 5TH TO 1ST WAS SLOW AND SOMETIMES NON-EXISTENT. UPDATED 02/09/16*JB

I NOTICED THAT WHEN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WOULD DOWNSHIFT FROM 5TH TO 4TH GEAR, THE CAR WOULD LURCH FORWARD AND BEGIN TO ACCELERATE EVEN WHEN MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE PEDAL. SOON AFTERWARD THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT IN ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS WITH NO RESULTS. AFTER THE THIRD SERVICE THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION. WHEN I PICKED MY CAR UP THE LURCHING FROM 5TH TO 4TH GEAR WAS GONE, BUT A NEW AND MORE AGGRESSIVE LURCH TAKES PLACE EVERY TIME IT SHIFTS FROM 2ND TO 1ST. I'VE ALSO NOTICED WHAT APPEARS TO BE A VIBRATION THAT WAS NOT PRESENT BEFORE THE NEW TRANSMISSION. AFTER THIS 3RD SERVICE I DECIDED TO FILE A LEMON LAW REPORT

ERROR LIGHT COMES ON TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AT 6000 MILES, REPLACED TRANSMISSION, HAVE HAD MULTIPLE SHIFTING ISSUES AND CHRYSLER REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM. REALLY DISCOURAGED AND FRUSTRATED WITH CHRYSLERS LACK OF RESPONSE.

TRANSMISSION HARD SHIFTS WHEN DECREASING SPEED REACHES JUST UNDER 20 MPH. THE THUNK IS LOUD AND HARD ENOUGH TO MOMENTARILY SHAKE THE JEEP. THIS MODEL WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE AFFECTED BY THE SOFTWARE ISSUES AFFECTING OTHER PRODUCTION RUNS, BU IT IS CLEARLY PRESENT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY RESET THE SHIFT POINTS. NOW THE TRANSITION THUNKS COMING FROM 4TH INTO 3RD. THE INITIAL COMPLAINT WAS 3RD INTO 2ND. THIS HAPPENS THE MAJORITY OF DOWNSHIFTS. IF THE AUTO-ENGINE OFF SWITCH IS ENGAGED (AUTO-OFF DISABLED) THE RATIO OF HARD SHIFTS TO CLEAN SHIFTS IMPROVES BY ABOUT 20%. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN UNREPORTED SOFTWARE ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP IS TELLING ME THAT IF THERE IS NO ERROR CODE THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO, BUT THERE IS CERTAINLY A SAFETY ISSUE GOING ON HERE. THE FORCE OF THESE HARD SHIFTS ARE PUTTING ENORMOUS STRAIN ON THE POWER TRAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED WHILE DRIVING, SHE BLACKED OUT AND CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO HER STERNUM, HEAD AND LEGS. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED AT THE SCENE OF THE CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 4,000.

TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY. NUMEROUS DIFFICULT SHIFTING ISSUES, PARTICULARLY AFTER STOPPING AND RESTARTING. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN BACK AT LEAST THREE TIMES FOR REPROGRAMMING BUT THE CONDITION STILL EXISTS.

SIDE VIEW MIRRORS' PLACEMENT BLOCKS VISIBILITY PARTICULARLY WHILE MANEUVERING IN PARKING LOTS CREATED SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS. MIRROR SHOULD BE MOUNTED HIGHER TO ELIMINATE VISION BLOCKAGE WHILE IMPROVING VISIBILITY.

UCONNECT SYSTEM AND THE SCREEN PLACEMENT IS A DISTRACTION THAT CAUSES THE DRIVER TO LOSE SITE OF THE ROAD AND TRAFFIC. A RELOCATION AND REDUCED SCREEN SIZE COULD HELP ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEM. ONCE THERE WERE LAWS PROHIBITING SUCH DEVISES TO BE VISIBLE TO THE DRIVER WHILE DRIVING???

VEHICLE HAS ROLLING STOP CONDITION (DESCRIPTION GIVEN BY JEEP TECHNICIAN) WHICH OCCURS BETWEEN 1 AND 3MPH. VEHICLE COMES TO A ROLLING STOP, TRANSMISSION WILL STAY IN THIRD GEAR AND HOLD THIRD GEAR. WHEN THE THROTTLE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED TO COMPLETE A TURN THE VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE FORWARD. THEN SUDDENLY A VIOLENT TRANSMISSION KICK DOWN OCCURS CAUSING THE CAR TO DOWNSHIFT IN TO FIRST GEAR CAUSING THE JEEP TO LUNGE FORWARD AND SQUEAL THE TIRES. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS SECOND GEAR HAS BEEN ELIMINATED IN THE SOFTWARE UPDATE CAUSING THIS TO HAPPEN. MY JEEP HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOUR TIMES. CHRYSLER IS NOW INVOLVED BECAUSE CROSSING INTERSECTIONS WHILE TURNING BELOW FOUR MPH IS UNSAFE AND UNPREDICTABLE WHEN DRIVING. WHEN THERE ARE PASSENGERS IN THE CAR (EXTRA WEIGHT) OR A INCLINE THE CONDITION IS EVEN WORSE. IT SEEMS EVERYTHING HAPPENED AFTER FIRST SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS DONE. MY JEEP HAD NO ISSUES OF ANY KIND BEFORE THIS.

WHEN AN OPERATOR SLOWS DOWN TO 5MPH TO A YIELD SIGN OR UNCONTROLLED INTERSECTION, AND THEN ATTEMPTS TO ACCELERATE THE JEEP STICKS IN A HIGHER GEAR SUCH AS 3RD GEAR OR 4TH AND KEEPS AT A CONSTANT 5MPH SPEED AS IT ENTERS AN INTERSECTION. THE OPERATOR NOTICES THIS ISSUE AND PRESSES THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HARDER TO AVOID GETTING HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. AFTER A FEW SECONDS WITH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL PRESSED TO THE FLOOR THE JEEP FINALLY DOWNSHIFTS TO 1ST GEAR, SQUEALS THE TIRES AND ACCELERATES HARD THROWING THE OPERATOR AND OCCUPANTS INTO THE SEAT IN A WHIPLASH FASHION. THIS ALL HAPPENS IF THE OPERATOR IS NOT STRUCK BY AN ONCOMING VEHICLE. OPERATORS THIS PARTICULAR JEEP CHEROKEE ARE USE TO OTHER VEHICLES THAT ACCELERATES NORMALLY UNDER THIS CONDITION. THE JEEP HAS BEEN INTO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES AND THEY STATE "THE JEEP IS ACTING AS DESIGNED". A JEEP CARE NUMBER HAS BEEN ASSIGNED TO THE ISSUE BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO THIS DATE.

MY 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE TRAILHAWK HAS 5000 MILES ON IT AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS REALLY HARD AND AT TIMES ON TAKE OFF IT STALLS REALLY BAD,ALMOST GOT ME HIT BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING AND PERFORMIMG LIKE IT SHOULD. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING VERY OFTEN. IM AFRAID ONE DAY ITS GONNA GET ME KILLED OR INJURED .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR HATCH DOOR DID NOT OPEN ALL THE TIME. THE LAST TIME IT OPENED, IT CAME DOWN UNINTENTIONALLY. THE CONTACT HAD TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM BECAUSE THE DOOR CAME DOWN ON HIS LEG. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE CONTACT WAS TREATED AND RELEASED THE SAME DAY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS AND VERY DIM BY DESIGN. ALMOST DROVE OFF THE ROAD SO DIM. CAN'T SEE PEDESTRIANS OR STREET SIGNS.AFRAID OF HITTING SOME ONE CROSSING THE STREET OR GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE SAID LIGHTS ARE WORKING AND ADJUSTED AS DESIGNED. HAVE READ THOUSANDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS IN VARIOUS ONLINE FORUMS. PLEASE RECALL BEFORE PEOPLE LOSE THEIR LIVES. IF IT HASN'T HAPPENED ALREADY. DIM LIGHTS WHEN DRIVING IN THE CITY ,HIGHWAY, GOOD WEATHER, BAD WEATHER. TOTALLY INADEQUATE AND DEADLY DANGEROUS UNDER ALL CONDITIONS AND CIRCUMSTANCES.

VEHICLE LUNGES AND OR JERKS FORWARD NEARING AND OR AT A COMPLETE STOP. IT HAPPENS THE MAJORITY OF DRIVING TIME AND HAS BEEN IN THE JEEP DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES.

JUST PURCHASED A LOADED JEEP CHEROKEE TRAILHAWK AND NOTICED IMMEDIATELY DURING FIRST NIGHT DRIVE THAT HEADLIGHTS ARE HUGELY UNDERPOWERED. THE ROAD IS DARK AND I'D SAY THEY HAVE LESS THAN HAVE THE BRIGHTNESS OF MY LAST CAR. I ALMOST GOT IN AN ACCIDENT THE FIRST NIGHT AS I COULD NOT SEE WHERE THE CENTER OF THE LANE WAS WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN. I SUBSEQUENTLY GOT ONLINE AND READ A TON OF COMPLAINTS OVER NEW CHEROKEE (2014-2016) HEADLIGHTS. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS AND UNACCEPTABLE AND YES, THE HEADLIGHTS ARE WORKING AND I AM OPERATING THEM CORRECTLY.

MY JEEP CHEROKEE I4 LATTITUDE FWD WILL NOT SHIFT DOWN THROUGH 3RD-2ND-1ST. THIS RESULTS IN A CONSTANT "LUNGING OF THE VEHICLE" (DUE TO VEHICLE TORQUE WHEN GOING 5MPH IN 3RD) WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO PARK OR WHEN IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC AND COMING TO A STOP BEHIND A VEHICLE (CAUSING A NEAR COLLISION) THE SHEER MASS OF THE VEHICLE REMAINING IN 3RD GEAR AT 5MPH RESULTS IN MANY UNNERVING INCIDENTS THAT WOULD BE AVOIDED IF THE VEHICLE GEARED DOWN. IT IS BEYOND OBVIOUS THAT CHRYSLER/ JEEP HAS CORRECTED THIS ISSUE IN 2016 VEHICLES WITH THE SAME POWERTRAIN BUT APPEARS TO LEAVE A LARGE NUMBER OF PRODUCT BUILD WITH THE ISSUE FROM THE 2014-2015 PERIOD. CHRYSLER ACTUALLY MAY HAVE DESIGNED A SOFTWARE UPDATE (R01) UNDER THE GUISE OF RESOLVING "DURABILITY ISSUES" AND INJECTED THIS PARTICULAR SAFETY ISSUE INTO VEHICLES. THEY NOW APPEAR TO HAVE NO INTEREST IN ACTUALLY FIXING THE ROOT PROBLEM. WILL NHTSA WAIT UNTIL SOME CHILD IS HIT IN A DRIVEWAY DUE TO ONE OF THESE "LUNGES"?

POOR HEADLIGHTS; THEY PUT OUT VERY LOW LIGHT TO SEE ROAD AT NIGHT. EXTREMELY HARD TO SEE WHEN TURNING AT NIGHT DUE TO THEY ARE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS .HEADLIGHTS CAN NOT BE ADJUSTED PER DEALER. ISSUE IS ON- GOING.

THE CAR HAS A TOXIC INTERNAL SMELL. IT CLINGS TO YOU FOR HOURS AFTER LEAVING THE CAR AND HAS REMAINED ON CLOTHING AND BABY TOYS LEFT IN THE CAR. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND AS I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR THE SMELL HAD BECOME WORSE AND WORSE. THE DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGED THE SMELL AND SAID IT WAS FROM FACTORY STICKERS UNDER THE CAR. JEEP PAID TO HAVE THE STICKERS REMOVED OVER THREE WEEKS AGO. THE CAR SMELL IS NOT DISSIPATING. I PLACE MY ONE YEAR OLD SON IN THE CAR AND I AM TERRIFIED OF THE EFFECT THE CHEMICAL SMELL MAY BE HAVING ON HIM. THE DEALERSHIP HAS SAID I HAVE TO JUST WAIT FOR THE SMELL TO GO AWAY. IT IS NOT HEALTH AND BEYOND ANY TOXIC SMELL I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. THIS IS THE ONLY CAR I HAVE ACCESS TO DRIVE AND HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO PLACE MY SON IN IT.

2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE COLLISION BRAKING SYSTEM PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED TWO WEEKS AGO, THE LANE SENSOR AND COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM TURNED OFF AS INDICATED BY THE RED LIGHT BEING ON THE OPTIONS BUTTON. A MESSAGE CAME ON THAT SAID ACC FCW WAS INACTIVE AND TO CLEAN THE FRONT RADAR SENSOR. HE WIPED AND CLEANED THE SENSOR. HOWEVER, THAT DID NOT STOP THE MESSAGE FROM CONSTANTLY COMING ON. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE CONSUMER STATED EVEN THOUGH THE COLLISION BRAKING SYSTEM WAS TURNED OFF, IT WAS ACTING AS THOUGH SOMETHING WAS BEHIND HIM AND THEREFORE THE BRAKES ENGAGED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STOP. *JB

HAD THREE MONTHS WITH MY CAR, STARTED SHOWING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT PERIODICALLY, I DIDN'T TAKE MUCH IMPORTANCE, THEN I RECEIVE A RECALL FROM THE DEALER, THEY FIX THE UNKNOWN PROBLEM, THEN FIVE MONTHS LATER I PARK ON THE PENDING STREET AND TRYING TO DRIVE BACK, THE SHIFTER WASN'T MOVING AT ALL, AFTER A FEW MINUTES STRANGLING WITH THE SHIFTER THE CAR FINALLY WORK, AFTER THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON FOR A DAY, THIS HAPPENED AGAIN CONTINUOUSLY. THIS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, HAPPENS A LOT. TODAY 12-04-2015, A TRAGEDY HAPPENED TO ME , WHEN I PARK MY CAR ON A CLIMB STREET, I PUT THE SHIFTER ON PARK, TURN OFF THE CAR, TOOK MY KEY, I GET OUT OF THE CAR, CLOSE THE DOOR, WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO SET UP THE ALARM I NOTICE BY REFLECTION THAT SOMETHING WAS MOVING, AND THAT WAS MY CAR, PASSING BY NEXT TO ME AND CRASHING INTO A CONCRETE WALL, ALMOST RUN ME DOWN, 'AGAIN THE CAR WAS OFF AND I HAD THE KEY IN MY HAND'. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE??? IF MY CAR HAS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I DON'T FEEL SAFE ANYMORE, OWING THIS CAR, PUTTING MY LIFE AND OTHERS IN RISK, I DON'T THIS IS FAIR, WHEN YOURE INVESTING YOUR MONEY FOR SECURITY, I NEED A RESPONSE OR SOLUTION FOR THIS PROBLEM A.S.A.P. THANKS. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *JB

WHILE DRIVING IN A SHOPPING CENTER FILLED WITH PEDESTRIANS AND VEHICLES..THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD ..I WAS AT 1 MPH OR LESS..THIS HAS HAPPENED FREQUENTLY..MY SON WAS IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME AT THE TIME AND ASK ME WHAT I WAS DOING..I TOLD HIM THAT I DIDN'T ACCELERATE THE CAR..IT DID IT ON ITS OWN..THIS SCARED ME AS WELL AS HIM. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR THE THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION CHECKED..AND THEY SAY THERE ARE NO CODES AND CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG.

VEHICLE HESITATES FOR A FEW SECONDS TO GO FORWARD WHEN I PRESS ON GAS..THEN IT LUNGES FORWARD..VERY DANGEROUS ..ESPECIALLY WHEN TURNING LEFT IN TRAFFIC..I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THIS AND I AM AFRAID THIS CAR IS GOING TO GET ME KILLED DOING THIS. THEY CHECKED CODES AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THIS HAPPENS DAILEY WHENEVER I'M DRIVING IT.

PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

PURCHASED JEEP AND HAVE HAD SAFETY ISSUES WITH INCONSISTENT SHIFTING SINCE DAY ONE. I HAVE RETURNED TO THE DEALER 19 TIMES FOR SHIFTING ISSUES AND OTHER COMPLAINTS. AT THE PRESENT TIME I CONTINUE TO HAVE A "SERVICE SHIFTER" LIGHT COME ON IN THE VEHICLE. THE LIGHT COMES ON WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. YOU CAN TRY TO RESET THE SHIFTER TO LET THE COMPUTER TRY TO RECOGNIZE THE ERROR, BUT IT DOESN'T WORK. TECHNICIANS HAVE TOLD ME NOT TO DRIVE WITH THE LIGHT ON AS THE CAR MAY SHIFT IN A DIFFERENT GEAR OR EVEN REVERSE. CHRYLSER STAR TECHNICIANS KEEP RESETTING THE SOFTWARE, HOWEVER THE LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME BACK ON RANDOMLY. I HAVE EXPRESSED MY CONCERNS AND FEARS WITH THE SHIFTING, HOWEVER THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM NOR HOW TO FIX THE ISSUE SO THEY CONTINUE TO RESET THE COMPUTER. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AS I NEVER KNOW WHEN THE LIGHT WILL COME ON NOR WHAT IT WILL DO. FOUND ERROR CODES U146500 AND P1C861D. PERFORMED FLASH UPDATES. DATES OF ISSUES: 6/29/15, 07/17/15, 09/06/15, 12/01/15. I ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH INCONSISTENT SHIFTING AND TAKE OF. YOU CAN TRY TO ACCELERATE AND THE CAR WILL NOT GO BUT THE RPM'S WILL RISE. THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY TAKE OFF AFTER A 4-5 SECOND DELAY. THIS HAS CAUSED ME GREAT FEAR AS SOMETIMES YOU WILL GO TO TURN AND THE CAR PAUSES BEFORE TAKING OFF. BY THE TIME IT DOES TAKE OFF YOU HAVE TURNED IN FRONT OF AN ONCOMING CAR. AGAIN CHRYSLER STAR TECHNICIANS HAVE TOLD ME I AM "OVER SENSITIVE" AND THE CAR FUNCTIONS AS ANY 9 SPEE

CRUISE CONTROL FAILED TO REGULATE SPEEDS ON INTERSTATE - ACCELERATED AT SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF SET SPEED BY 10-14 MILES PER HOUR. VERY DANGEROUS ACCELERATING TO THE POINT POSSIBLE COLLISION WITH VEHICLE AHEAD ON ROADWAY. SET SPEED OF 72 WENT UP TO 84-89 MILES PER HOUR ON SLIGHT DOWNHILL.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGAN COMING ON 8K MILES. DOESN'T SHIFT PROPERLY WON'T ACCELERATE PROPERLY. HAS BEEN IN SHOP FOR SAME THING 4 TIMES IN 2 MONTHS. AND LIGHT HAS BEEN ON ALL OF 3MONTHS BUT HAD TO WAIT ON PARTS AND LONER. BRING IT HOME ONLY TO HAVE SAME ISSUE NEXT DAY. MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THEY KEEP REPLACING SAME PART AND NEVER FIXES PROBLEM FOR MORE THAN A DAY OR TWO.

AFTER DRIVING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, WHICH HAS A PARTIAL SLOPE AS NORMAL, I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND REMOVED THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION. I OPENED THE DOOR AND STARTED EXITING THE JEEP WHEN IS STARTED ROLLING BACKWARD. I WAS ABLE TO SCRAMBLE BACK INTO THE JEEP AND WAS ABLE TO BREAK THE VEHICLE TO A STOP. I THEN MOVED THE JEEP UP BACK TO THE DRIVEWAY AND APPLIED THE PARING BREAK. NO DAMAGE OR INJURY OCCURRED BUT IT SCARED THE 'BLEEP' OUT OF ME.

THE TRANSMISSION SUFFERS FROM HARD SHIFTS AND DELAYED SHIFTING. THIS OCCURS WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, PARK TO DRIVE, ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AND ACCELERATING TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE DELAYED SHIFTING OR HESITATION IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVERS OF THIS VEHICLE AND OTHERS AS IT CAUSES THE DRIVER OF THE JEEP CHEROKEE TO UNINTENTIONALLY LURCH INTO TRAFFIC. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN ACROSS ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IN THESE SITUATIONS WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS DEPRESSED THE ENGINE REVS AND BECOMES LOUD BUT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT MOVE- VERY SIMILAR TO IF ONE PRESSED THE GAS WHILE IN NEUTRAL. THIS HESITATION LASTS A FEW TO SEVERAL SECONDS DURING WHICH TIME ONCOMING TRAFFIC THAT WAS A SAFE DISTANCE AWAY WHEN THE TURN WAS INITIATED HAS BECOME DANGEROUSLY CLOSE. THE TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY ENGAGES AND PROPELS THE VEHICLE INTO THE PATH OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT BUT FREQUENT. IT OCCURS EVERY TIME I DRIVE BUT NOT EVERY TIME I SHIFT FROM PARK TO REVERSE, SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE, MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN, ACCELERATE TO PASS, OR ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION. I BELIEVE THIS MAKES THIS ISSUE ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE DRIVER NEVER KNOWS WHEN OR IF THIS MAY OCCUR. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED 3 TIMES WITHIN 10 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP FOR THE ABOVE ISSUES. IT HAS HAD ALL AVAILABLE TRANSMISSION MODULE UPDATES WITHOUT IMPROVEMENT AND IS CURRENTLY AWAITING TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. PER THE DEALERSHIP THE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT IS UNLIKELY TO COR

PROBLEM STARTED WHILE MOVING. NOW IT'S AS SOON AS IT STARTSMY PROBLEM STARTED JUNE 2015, WHOLE DASH LIGHTS UP TIRE PRESSURE,SERVICE AIR BAG,4WD UNAVAILABLE,BRAKE FAILURE,AND WHEN COMES TO STOP DISENGAGES TRANSMISSION.SAME THING STARTED AGAIN AUGUST 3RD 2015 SAME LIST AGAIN. RECEIVED BACK AGAIN SEPT 2ND 2015 DROVE FOR 2 DAYS. BACK TO DEALER AGAIN. STILL THERE CURRENTLY HAVE NOT RECEIVED BACK CANNOT FIGURE PROBLEM OUT CHRYSLER IS INVOLVED BUT THEY ARE REDICULAS CASE NUMBER AVAILABLE IF NEEDED

DURING DRIVING "4WD OVERHEATED. TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE" RANDOMLY SHOWS UP ON THE DISPLAY AND THEN GOES AWAY. THE LAST I WAS TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP "4WD SVC" YELLOW LIGHT CAME ON. DEALERSHIP LOOKED AT IT TWICE AND EVEN CHANGED SOME ELECTRONIC COMPONENT BUT THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS.

WHEN DOWNSHIFTING FROM 3RD TO 2ND TO 1ST AT AN INTERSECTION, THE TRANSMISSION SKIPS 2ND GEAR AND FINALLY DROPS INTO 1ST AT ABOUT 1-2 MPH. IF I ACCELERATE PRIOR TO COMING TO A FULL STOP, THE TRANSMISSION IS IN 3RD GEAR AND HAS INSUFFICIENT POWER TO AVOID A COLLISION. THE TRANSMISSION ALSO CAUSES A DANGEROUS PROBLEM WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE INTO FORWARD. NUMEROUS TIMES THERE IS A SHARP JERK WHICH CAUSES ME TO CONCENTRATE ON RETAINING CONTROL OF THE CAR AND LOSING AWARENESS OF MY SURROUNDINGS. THIS CAR IS ALSO WELL KNOW FOR HAVING AN EXTREME WOBBLE WHEN PULLED BEHIND AN RV - WHICH IS WHAT I PURCHASED IT FOR. I HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED THE WOBBLE YET AS I HAVEN'T HOOKED UP MY CHEROKEE WAITING FOR CHRYSLER TO RESOLVE THE VERY DANGEROUS WOBBLE PROBLEM. ALL OF THE PROBLEMS LISTED ABOVE OCCUR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION - SOMETIMES AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING IN TOWN.
