2015 Jeep Cherokee complaints

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP POSITION THE VEHICLE'S RPMS WILL GO UP, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE, AND THEN WILL SUDDENLY LUNGE FORWARD. IT ALSO WILL SHIFT VERY HARD FROM GEAR TO GEAR, AND IF STOPPED ON A HILL, AND ATTEMPT TO MOVE FROM STARTING POSITION, TRANSMISSION DOES NOT ENGAGE RIGHT AWAY, EVEN THOUGH VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE. IT STARTED DOING THIS ABOUT TWO MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AT WHICH TIME IT HAD APPROX. 2000 MILES ON IT, AND HAS CONTINUED.

THE VEHICLE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON, SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT COMES ON. VEHICLE SHIFTS IN AND OUT OF GEAR ON ITS OWN. PARKING BRAKE ACTIVATES ON ITS OWN. THE START/STOP MALFUNCTION LIGHT COMES ON. IT HAS BEEN TOWED IN TO DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES. THESE PROBLEMS HAVE OCCURRED WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.

I PURCHASED MY 2015 CHEROKEE 10 MONTHS AGO AND ONLY HAS 7700 MILES BUT AS TIME HAS PASSED THE SHIFTING OF GEARS IS GETTING WORSE. IF YOU LET OF THE GAS AT 30MPH WHEN THE CAR GETS TO 27MPH IT ACCELERATES AND YOU CAN SEE THE RPM INCREASE. WHEN YOU BRAKE AND GET TO AROUND 20MPH THE CAR DOES THE SAME THING. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS OCCASSIONS OF ALMOST GETTING AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS WHEN BRAKING. ITS ALSO VERY DANGEROUS TO BE GOING INTO A TURN AND THE CAR START TO GO FASTER AND I DON'T FEEL LIKE I HAVE CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. DURING THE FIRST OIL CHANGE I WAS ADVISED THE DEALERSHIP OF THE CONCERN AND THEY SAID YOU JUST HAVE TO GET USED TO DRIVING A JEEP AS THEY RUN ROUGH COMPARED TO CARS. I TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP 11/5/2015 SINCE I COMPLAINED AGAIN AND NOW THEY DO AGREE "SOMETHING" IS WRONG WITH IT BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT DUE TO ITS NOT GIVING THEM A CODE. I WAS GIVEN A RENTAL CAR ON 11/6/2015. ON 11/10/2015 I WAS ADVISED I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION, THE PART WAS BEING ORDERED AND SHOULD BE READY IN A FEW DAYS. ON 11/13/2015 I CALLED TO BE ADVISED A PART WAS MISSING AND IT WOULD NOT BE READY UNTIL 11/16/2015. I CALLED 11/16/2015 TO SEE IF IT WOULD BE READY FOR ME TO PICK UP BY 3PM AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD NOT BE READY UNTIL 5PM, I TOLD THEM I WOULD PICK UP THE JEEP THE NEXT DAY. TODAY 11/17/2015 MY HUSBAND WENT TO DROP OF THE RENTAL TO PICK UP OUR JEEP AND NOW IT WILL NOT START, MY HUSBAND WAS TOLD THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS WRONG BUT THEY WILL CALL LATER. AT THIS POINT I D

PURCHASED THE JEEP IN NOVEMBER 2014 BRAND NEW. FIRST 6 OR 7 MONTHS THE VEHICLE PERFORMED FINE. AROUND JUNE/JULY 2015 SOME MINOR ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN SHIFTING AND ACCELERATING. AS IF THE CAR COULD NOT FIND THE GEAR AND IT WAS 'LURCHING' WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOPPED POSITION. ALSO,WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK AND TURNED OFF, IT ROLLS SEVERAL INCHES BEFORE STOPPING. DUE TO HAVING TO TRAVEL ACROSS COUNTRY IN AUGUST, TOOK VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE 9/5/2015 FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND RECALL WORK ON AN UNRELATED ISSUE. I ASKED ABOUT A RECALL THAT I HEARD ABOUT ON THE NEWS FOR JEEP CHEROKEE TRANSMISSIONS AND WAS ADVISED THERE WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE AVAILABLE FOR MY JEEP. AFTER THE SOFTWARE UPDATE, ADVISED TO DRIVE MY CAR AS NORMAL AND GIVE IT 100 TO 300 MILES FOR THE SOFTWARE TO 'GET USED TO MY DRIVING' AND TO SETTLE IN. SINCE THAT TIME, HAD A MARKED INCREASE IN TRANSMISSION NOISE, SHIFTING PROBLEMS, LURCHING PROBLEMS, AND THE VEHICLE ROLLING MORE WHEN I STOP. THE JEEP SEEMS TO SHIFT BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND GEAR OKAY, BUT IT REGULARLY GOING OVER 3000 RMPSS AND HIGHER TO SHIFT TO ALL OTHER GEARS. IT IS LIKE IT CANNOT FIND THE GEARS AND IT GETTING STUCK. THERE IS ALSO A GOOD BIT OF NOISE WITH THIS THAT WAS NOT THERE. SEPTEMBER 9, 2015, WHILE MERGING ONTO 1-40, JEEP WAS HAVING A HARD TIME GOING FROM THIRD TO FORTH GEAR AND THEN IT COULD NOT HIT ANOTHER GEAR AND THE RPMS REACHED 4500 BEFORE SHIFTING. ALMOST GOT HIT FROM BEHIND BY A HUGE MOVING TRUCK! TOOK BACK TO DEALERSHIP ON 9/9/15. SI

VEHICLE STALLED DURING REGULAR OPERATION, FOR NO APPARENT REASON. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND STALLED. POWER STEERING WAS LOST.

VEHICLE IS WARM. SHIFTING BETWEEN 4TH AND 5TH GEAR, SLAMS INTO 5TH AT 30-35 MPH. FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO FALL OUT FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. 14,000 MILES ON VEHICLE. NORMAL OPERATING TEMPS ON ALL GAUGES. I AM WONDERING IF THE ELECTRIC SOLENOID AREN'T PERFORMING PROPERLY. THIS HASN'T BEEN THE FIRST TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED.

MY CAR HAS HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUES FROM VERY EARLY ON. I CAN STEP ON THE GAS, THE ENGINE REVS UP BUT DOES NOT REGISTER ON THE TACHOMETER, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT CATCHES AND GOES. I HAVE BEEN IN 4 OR 5 SITUATIONS WHERE I STARTED PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND THE CAR SIMPLY HESITATED FOR SEVERAL SECONDS BEFORE GOING. I ACTUALLY HAD A VERY CLOSE CALL WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER BECAUSE OF THIS HESITATION. ALSO, YOU CAN STEP ON THE GAS TO ACCELERATE AND ONCE AT THE DESIRED SPEED THEN LET OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND THE ENGINE STAYS AT THE ACCELERATED RPM'S FOR SEVERAL SECONDS THEN SHIFTS BACK OUT TO NORMAL RPM'S. ALSO, THE CAR HAS HAD 4 SEPARATE ELECTRICAL ISSUES IN 4 MONTHS AS WELL. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, THEN THE ENGINE COOLING FAN RUNS FAST FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES THEN SHUTS BACK DOWN. I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE AT HE DEALERSHIP FOR PROBLEMS 5 TIMES IN 4 MONTHS AND THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIND WHAT THE ISSUE IS OR WHAT TO DO TO CORRECT IT.

6 TIMES SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE ON JAN 30,2015 THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION FAILS TO ENGAGE AFTER COMING TO A STOP. UPON ACCELERATION AFTER A STOP, THE ENGINE REVS AS IF ITS IN NEUTRAL WHEN THE GEAR SHIFT IS IN DRIVE OFTEN RENDERING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES FLASH INCLUDING THE DISABLING OF THE ABS SYSTEM, EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM, AND SHIFT VEHICLE INTO DESIRED GEAR WHILE STILL IN DRIVE. ON 11/7/15 THE LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING WHILE DRIVING AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO ENGAGE WHEN THE CAR CAME TO A STOP. USUALLY TURNING THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTING WILL ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO BECOME OPERATIONAL AGAIN (WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED) HOWEVER, THIS TIME THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT EVEN START AND THE TRANSMISSION COULD NOT BE SHIFTED OUT OF PARK IN ORDER TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THIS BEGAN THE DAY AFTER I PURCHASED IT WITH 80 MILES ON IT AND HAS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN EVEN AFTER DEALER "REMEDIES" OF RESETTING THE TRANSMISSION MODULE, UPDATING THE TRANSMISSION MODULE AND REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION MODULE. THIS ISSUE CONTINUES TO WORSEN AND IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY HAZARDOUS. I DO HAVE VIDEOS OF HOW THE VEHICLE ACTS DURING THESE EPISODES AND THE DANGEROUS POSITION IT HAS LEFT ME AND MY YOUNG DAUGHTERS IN WHEN IT OCCURS.

MY 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED 4X2 HAS THE 9 SPEED TRANSMISSION. THE TRANSMISSION WORKED WELL AT FIRST, BUT SOON SHIFTED HARD, SURGED, CLUNKED HESITATED, AND HUNTED FOR GEARS. AT 1921 MILES, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, INDICATING TRANSMISSION OVERHEATING, AND THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THE NEW TRANSMISSION WORKED WELL FOR ABOUT 500 MILES, BUT HAS STARTED THE SAME COMBINATION OF HARD SHIFTING, SURGING, HESITATING, CLUNKING, AND HUNTING. DEALER NOW SAYS THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE NINE SPEED TRANSMISSION, AND THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL THE TRANSMISSION GIVES ERROR CODES. THIS VEHICLE IS SCARY WHEN CROSSING INTERSECTIONS OR MAKING LEFT TURNS ACROSS BUSY STREETS. THE SURGING WHEN IT IS PUT INTO PARK IS ALSO SCARY.

BOUGHT A 2015 JEEP CHEROKE IN MARCH AND HAVE HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUE SINCE DAY ONE. THE TRANSMISSION SLAMS INTO GEAR WHEN ACCELERATING AND DOWNSHIFTS HARD AND PUSHES THE VEHICLE FORWARD ON DECELERATION. I HAVE 5,000 MILES ON MY "NEW" $35,000 VEHICLE AND I'M ON TRANSMISSION NUMBER TWO. EVERY TIME I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE I WONDER IF THE TRANSMISSION WILL STOP AGAIN AND LEAVE ME STRANDED, OR WORSE, CAUSE ME TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. MANY TIMES WHEN ACCELERATING, THERE IS A PAUSE WITHOUT ANY MOVEMENT AND THEN THE TRANSMISSION GRABS AND THE VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD. THIS HAS HAPPENED MERGING ONTO THE THRUWAY AS WELL. I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC DRIVING 65 MPH AND NOTHING WAS HAPPENING AS I PUSHED ON THE GAS PEDAL. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT KICKS IN WITH A LOUD THUD. I WORRY WHEN IT SNOWS THAT THIS WILL MAKE THE TIRES SPIN TO MUCH AND I WILL LOSE CONTROL.

TRANSMISSION SOMETIMES STALLS, LAGS BEHIND GAS PEDAL, SLIPS, AND WILL EVEN SHUTOFF ON THE RODE. I HAVE BEEN STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD MULTIPLE TIMES, TWICE WITH MY TWO CHILDREN IN THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN IN TO JEEP DEALERSHIP EACH TIME TO BE TOLD SOMETHING DIFFERENT EACH TIME. TWICE THEY HAVE RE-FLASHED ECU, ONCE TO REPLACE CONTROL MODULE, AND ONCE AGAIN TO BE TOLD THEY COULDNT REPLICATE THE EVENT. THIS VEHICLE IS A DEATH TRAP. I WOULD SUGGEST STAYING FAR AWAY FROM THIS CAR. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF ATTEMPTING A LEMON LAW BEFORE I AM STRANDED ON THE ROAD AND INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT.

WHEN PUSKING THE GAS PEDAL FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE CAR HESITATES BEFORE ENGAGING AND THEN WHEN IT DOES ENGAGE, IT ACCELERATES AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND WHEN SLOWING DOWN IT DOES NOT STOP AS QUICKLY BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION IS STILL ENGAGED AT A HIGHER GEAR THUS MAKING REAR IMPACTS LIKELY. TRYING TO MAKE A TURN EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT IN A HIGH TRAFFIC CONGESTED AREA, IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TO MERGE WITH THE TRAFFIC QUICKLY BECAUSE OF THIS HESITATION. I FEEL LIKE I AM TAKING MY LIFE IN MY HANDS EVERY TIME I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V393000 (STRUCTURE); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

BOUGHT MY 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE IN NOVEMBER 2014. BEGAN HAVING A VERY LOUD, ANNOYING RATTLE COMING FROM BACK SEAT AND TRANSMISSION ISSUES IN FEBRUARY OF 2015. THE TRANSMISSION SURGES WHEN YOU START THE CAR, IT CLUNKS AFTER YOU TURN THE CAR OFF, SOMETIMES THE CAR WON'T GO WHEN YOU GIVE IT GAS AND THEN IT WILL KICK IN AND BE LIKE A TURBO BOOST PUSHING THE CAR FORWARD. IT'S A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WHEN MAKING TURNS WHEN THERE IS ONCOMING TRAFFIC BECAUSE YOU MAY PUSH THE GAS BUT THE CAR MAY NOT GO LIKE IT SHOULD OR COULD JUMP FORWARD AND CAUSE YOU TO REARED SOMEONE WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A RED LIGHT. IT'S BEEN IN THE SHOP 5TIMES FOR THE BACKSEAT AND 3 TIMES FOR THE TRANSMISSION ( JUST PUT IT BACK IN THE SHOP YESTERDAY). THEY HAVE REPROGRAMMED THE TRANSMISSION TWICE AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY DO TO THE SEAT - THEY PUT SOME TAPE ON THE METAL OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT BUT IT OF COURSE DIDN'T FIX IT. THIS IS A HORRIBLE VEHICLE AND I TRADED OUT OF A VEHICLE WITH NEGATIVELY EQUITY AND AFTER ALL THE ISSUES TRIED TO TRADE OUT OF IT BUT THE CAR HAS LOST NEARLY $10,000 IN VALUE IN LESS THAN A YEAR LEAVING ME STUCK WITH THIS UNSAFE VEHICLE. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY WHERE YOU MUST TRAVEL AT HIGH RATES OF SPEED. IN AUGUST OF 2015. I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, LIGHT TURNED GREEN, ALL THE CARDS BEGAN MOVING FORWARD. I PUSHED THE GAS WHICH WITH THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE THE CAR KICKS TOWARD PRETTY HARD WHEN YOU TAKE OFF AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED ABRUP

I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 4 MONTHS AND EVERY 3 WEEKS I HAVE TO RETURN IT FOR SERVICE DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION, 4X4 AND TRACTION CONTROL NOT WORKING. STARTS OFF IN 3RD - 4TH GEAR AT ANY GIVEN TIME (ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES), WILL ACCELERATE AND SURGE FORWARD DURING DOWN SHIFTING WHILE STOPPING (ALMOST HIT SEVERAL DIFFERENT VEHICLES) AND NOW SURGES TO 7000RPM WHEN TURNING RIGHT AND PARKING BREAK HAS LOCKED UP 3 DIFFERENT TIMES WHILE IN GEAR. 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS DON'T KNOW WHAT TO FIX BECAUSE IT DOESN'T REGISTER ANY CODES, THEY ALSO TELL ME THAT THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM ON ALL 9 SPEED TRANSMISSIONS THEY MAKE, NOT JUST THE ONE'S IN JEEPS. BUT SINCE THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO FIX AND THEREFORE ITS NOT AN ISSUE AND I HAVE TO TAKE MY UNPREDICTABLE AND UNSAFE VEHICLE HOME AND NOT THE LOANER BECAUSE JEEP WILL NOT PAY FOR IT. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP WHO ASSIGNED ME A "RESOLUTION CASE MANAGER" WHO WILL NO LONGER RETURN MY PHONE CALLS FOR BUY BACK OR TRADING FOR A DIFFERENT VEHICLE. IS THAT THEIR RESOLUTION, BLOW EVERYONE OFF AND HOPE WE ALL GO AWAY?? WHY IS NOTHING BEING DONE FOR EVERYONE'S SAFETY? WHY ARE THEY STILL KNOWINGLY SELLING THESE VEHICLES WITH NO KNOW FIX? HOW LONG BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED? THERE IS MORE THAN ENOUGH INFORMATION THAT I HAVE READ ON THIS PAGE YET THERE IS NO ACTION? ISN'T THAT WHAT THIS SITE IS FOR? ACTION?

I STARTED LEASING THIS BRAND NEW CAR JULY 2015. INITIALLY THERE WERE A FEW MINOR SHIFTING CHANGES THAT FELT UNSTEADY. COMING HOME FROM WORK ONE DAY IN OCTOBER 2015 I NOTICED THE CAR WAS NOT ACCELERATING, WOULD SHIFT POORLY INTO DIFFERENT GEARS AND WAS JOLTING. AT THE SAME TIME THE "SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT" TURNED ON AS WELL AS A MESSAGE STATING "SERVICE TRANSMISSION". I WAITED SEVEN HOURS FOR JEEP TO TOW THE CAR, IT TOOK THEM ONE WEEK TO DIAGNOSE, AND THEY ESTIMATED ANOTHER WEEK TO REPAIR. SO FAR THEY'VE HAD THE CAR FOR TWO WEEKS AND THE ESTIMATE PICKUP DAY WOULD MARK 17 DAYS WITHOUT THE CAR IF ITS EVEN READY ON TIME. THEY ARE REPLACING THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION.

AT 2,000 MILES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN SURGING AS I WOULD DECELERATE TOWARDS A STOP. IN ADDITION AS I WOULD DESCEND DOWN A HILL THE VEHICLE WOULD ACT AS IF IT WERE DOWNSHIFTING INTO MUCH TOO LOW OF A GEAR. FINALLY, WHEN I ACCELERATE OUT OF A STOP THE VEHICLE WOULD SURGE FORWARD. I OWNED THE VEHICLE 35 DAYS.

VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION OF MY 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE SINCE I GOT IT. IT WILL SOMETIME NOT SHIFT GOING UP HILLS AND OVER REVS BUT WHAT IS VERY SCARY IS IT WILL SOMETIMES JUST HESITATE WHEN I PRESS THE GAS AND THEN SUDDENLY TAKE OFF WITHOUT WARNING. IF I AM PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND I PRESS THE GAS TO GO QUICKLY THE CAR SIMPLY WILL NOT GO OR IT WILL JUST GO A LITTLE AND THEN PAUSE AND I WILL BE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THEN IT WILL JERK AND TAKE OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR. IT IS A LEASE SO I CANNOT EVEN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IF I BOUGHT IT I CAN ASSURE YOU, I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN RID OF IT BY NOW. I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT.

PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

INITIALLY CAR SHUTTERED WHEN COMING TO A STOP AND WAS DOWNSHIFTING. THE ENGINE START/STOP MALFUNCTION LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE SERVICE ENGINE MIL CAME ON AS WELL. FROM THEN ON THE CAR BEHAVED AS THOUGH IT WAS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR CAUSING A TOTAL LACK OF TORQUE/POWER WHEN ACCELERATING FROM STOPS, AND THE ENGINE RPMS WERE GOING EXTREMELY HIGH AND THE CAR WOULDN'T SHIFT. EVEN TRIED USING THE "MANUAL SHIFT" FEATURE BUT THE CAR INDICATED IT WAS SHIFTING GEARS, BUT THE RPMS DID NOT CHANGE, NOR COULD YOU FEEL THE CAR SHIFT. WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOPPED POSITION THERE WAS NO POWER AND THE CAR CRAWLED/STRUGGLED TO GET MOVING FORWARD. WAS ALMOST T-BONED TRYING TO TURN ACROSS ONCOMING TRAFFIC TO GET TO A PARKING LOT SO I COULD STOP. ONCE I PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE. I PUT IT IN REVERSE, BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T GO. TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN ON AND EVERYTHING SEEMED TO RESET EXCEPT MIL AND CAR STARTED BEVAING NORMALLY. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY "REFLASHED" THE PCM, TCM, AND BCM. 1 DAY LATER THE CAR SHUTTERS WHEN DOWN SHIFTING AND ERROR LIGHTS COME ON. LOSES POWER, AND 50% OF THE TIME SEEMS LIKE IT IS NOT SHIFTING GEARS. 25% OF THE TIME WON'T GO INTO REVERSE. CAR BEHAVES NORMALLY AFTER RESTARTING THOUGH THE MIL INDICATOR LIGHT REMAINS ON. USUALLY AROUND 10 MILES LATER THE WHOLE SERIES OF MALFUNCTION STARTS AGAIN, ALWAYS WHEN THE CAR IS DOWNSHIFTING BEFORE A STOP. JUST DROPPED THE CAR OFF TO THE DEALER AND THEY ARE HAVING THEIR TRANSMISSION S

I PURCHASED MY 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE 3.6L LIMITED EDITION IN MAY SINCE THEN HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE 9 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ROUGH SHIFTING AND THE FRONT AXLES CAUSING WOBBLING AT LOWER SPEED . AFTER 5 OR 6 VISITS TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THEY INSTALLED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND FRONT AXLES. TWO DAYS LATER HORRIBLE NOISE WAS COMING FROM THE AXLES THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO SERVICE AGAIN. WHEN THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME IT SEEMED TO BE DRIVING FINE EXCEPT IT DID NOT SHIFT INTO 2ND GEAR AND FELT LIKE THE CAR HAS NO POWER HOWEVER IT HAS 273 HP. LESS THEN A 1000 MILES LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH A! . AFTER DIAGNOSIS THE ERROR CODE WAS POINTING TO THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE. THE SERVICE ADMINISTRATOR TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD CLEAR THE CODE AND THE TECH WOULD DRIVE THE CAR AND IF IT DOES NOT COME BACK THE WOULD CONSIDER IT FIXED, AND NOT QUESTIONING WHY IT HAPPENED AT THE FIRST PLACE. WE FEEL COMPLETELY UNSAFE IN THIS CAR, I WISH I NEVER BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE. THIS CAR HAS 10500 MILES ON IT AND I HAD TO TAKE IT 7 TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP. DO NOT BUY THIS TYPE OF CAR

BOUGHT 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT WAS SO EXCITED TO OWN MY FIRST JEEP AFTER 600 MILES TRANSMISSION FAILED AND HAD TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED I WAS WITHOUT IT FOR 23 DAYS. AFTER I GOT IT BACK AND NOTICED THE TRANSMISSION EITHER LUNGES FORWARD WHEN MAKING A TURN OR LOOSES POWER AND REVES UP THEN ENGAGES TOOK IT BACK AND DEALER SAYS WE ARE AWARE OF PROBLEM BUT THERE IS NOT A UPDATE OR FIX FOR THAT.... I HAVE NEVER FELT MORE UNSAFE OR UNSURE ABOUT DRIVING OR TRUSTING A VEHICLE THAN I DO NOW. I HAVE BEEN BACK TO DEALER TO HAVE MANY UPDATES/RECALLS DONE AND TCM HAD TO BE REPLACED NOT JUST UPDATED... I WISH I NEVER PURCHASED A JEEP . O YEAH I ALMOST FORGOT THE WASHER FLUID LIQUID HOUSING CONTAINER IS LEAKING TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT HAS A CRACK IN IT DEFECTIVE SO THEY NEED TO ORDER A NEW ONE...... UGGHH WHAT NEXT?

WHEN SLOWING,AFTER REMOVING FOOT FROM GAS PEDAL,BUT BEFORE APPLING BRAKES.VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD..ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR IN PARKING LOT. AND AT TIMES WHEN ACCELERATING VEHICLE ENGINE REVES UP BUT DOSENT MOVE FORWARD FOR A FEW SECS..NOT GOOD WHEN TURNING LEFT IN TRAFFIC...

WHILE IN MOTION; WHEN REMOVING FOOT FROM ACCELLERATOR TO COAST OR BRAKE, BUT BEFORE APPLYING BRAKE, VEHICLE BOLTS FORWARD AND ACCELERATES. THIS COULD BE A HAZZARD IN ICE OR SNOW OR CLOSE TRAFFIC. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. NOTED TO DEALER AND THEY STATED ITS A KNOWN ISSUE NOTHING THEY CAN DO! HAPPENS ALL THE TIME BUT ESP ON DOWNHILL; GOOGLE AND LOTS OF COMPLAINTS!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE DOWN SHIFTS ERRATICALLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, IT BEGAN TO INCREASE IN SPEED SURGING FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS FUNCTIONING AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED . THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 1,000.......UPDATED 12/17/15 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED CHRYSLER AGREED TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE BACK HIM. UPDATED 12/21/15. *JB.........UPDATED 01/06/16 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE 9 SPEED TRANSMISSION. IF SHIFTER ERRATICALLY IN ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS, SOMETIMES DOWN SHIFTING TO A LOW GEAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND SURGED FORWARD ON ITS OWN WHEN SLOWING DOWN FOR A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. THREE UPGRADES WERE PERFORMED. HOWEVER, THE UPGRADES DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE CONSUMER WENT TO ANOTHER DEALER, BECAUSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEPT ILLUMINATING, WHICH WAS DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER STATED THERE WAS AN INTERNAL PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS. THE DEALER RECOMMENDED REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION. HOWEVER, CHRSYLER OFFERED TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE BACK FROM THE CONSUMER, IN WHICH HE ACCEPTED. UPDATED 01/11/16.*JB

2015 CHEROKEE TRAILHAWK WITH 4K MILES. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP THE VEHICLE DOES NOT SEEM TO WANT TO GO ANYWHERE. I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. NOT A GOOD THING WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO CROSS TRAFFIC AND YOUR VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I HAVE ALSO HAD VERY HARD TRANSMISSION SHIFT WHEN COMING TO A STOP THAT WILL LITERALLY THROW YOU AND THE VEHICLE FORWARD. A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY IT IS WORSE AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE SO I HAVE YET TO NOTIFY THE DEALERSHIP OF THIS ISSUE. FROM WHAT I CAN TELL, THEY REALLY DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. SOMEONE NEEDS TO FIGURE THIS OUT FASTER THEN WHAT IS HAPPENING NOW BECAUSE SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED OR GET SERIOUSLY HURT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, SMOKE APPEARED INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MERGED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND LARGE FLAMES APPEARED UNDER THE HOOD. A FIRE TECHNICIAN EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO AN IMPOUND LOT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

JEEP 2015 CHEROKEE STALLED WHILE IN MOTION IN HIGH SPEED LANE OF HIGHWAYIN HEAVY TRAFFIC. UPON RESTARTING, CAR WAS STUCK SOMEWHERE AROUND 3RD OR 4TH GEAR. ENGINE WAS SKIPPING.

OUR CHEROKEE LATITUDE WAS AT 4,800 MILES WHEN IT SUDDENLY FLASHED SERVICE TRANSMISSION AND SERVICE ENGINE. WE WERE STUCK IN A HIGH GEAR ON THE INTERSTATE WHICH ALLOWED US OFF OF THE INTERSTATE TO SAFETY BUT WE WERE NEARLY HIT TRYING TO GET TO A PULL OFF AREA AS IT WOULDN'T PICK UP SPEED ONCE IT SLOWED DOWN. THEN IT JUMPED AND BANGED TO SHIFT OFF DUE TO THE START\STOP WHICH WE QUICKLY TURNED OFF AND WERE GLAD WE DIDN'T RAM ANYONE. ONCE THE CAR WAS OFF FOR AWHILE IT RESET ITSELF AND WE TRIED GETTING TO THE NEXT TOWN SINCE WE WERE IN A TRIP. IT DID IT AGAIN, SO WE CALLED THE NEAREST DEALER. THEY SAID THEY WERE AWARE OF A RECALL AND WOULD CALL US BACK TO HELP BUT NEVER DID. WE MANAGED TO GET IT BACK HOME AFTER IT SAT OFF FOR AWHILE HAVE BEEN GIVEN A LOANER FROM OUR DEALERSHIP. IT SEEMS LIKE MORE NEEDS TO BE DONE TO FIX THIS ISSUE AS THERE ARE LOTS OF TRANSMISSION COMPLAINTS!

JULY 31, 2015: VEHICLE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATED WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING (8-10 MILES) IN MORNING AND AGAIN IN AFTERNOON. IN PM TURNED OF VEHICLE AND RESTARTED, VARIOUS WARNING LIGHTS INCLUDING TRANSMISSION REQUIRES SERVICE WARNINGS APPEARED AND TRANSMISSION WAS STUCK IN ONE GEAR. JULY 31-AUGUSTS1 JEEP WAS AT DEALER FOR COMPLETE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT (APPROXIMATELY 5500 MILES). OCTOBER 5-OCTOBER 7 VEHICLE LEFT WITH DEALER DUE TO CONTINUED TRANSMISSION ISSUES WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE PERIODICALLY CLUNKS AND JERKS FORWARD WHEN SHIFTING INTO LOW GEAR WHEN COMING TO A STOP. BECOMES CONFUSED WHEN SLOWING TO A ROLLING STOP, AND HESITATES TO TAKE OFF WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. CURRENTLY WHEN DRIVING IN DAYLIGHT THE AUTO HEADLIGHTS PERIODICALLY FLICKER ON AND OFF WHEN I DRIVE THROUGH A SHADOW AND MAKE VIEWING DISPLAYS IN DAYLIGHT PROBLEMATIC. JEEP CUSTOMER CARE SAYS THAT THEY COULD FIND NO ERROR CODES AND WITHOUT "REPLICATING THE PROBLEM" OR HAVING ERROR CODES THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING.

COMPLETED A NEW LEASE FOR A 2015 CHEROKEE 4X4 LIMITED ON 10.08. THE NEXT MORNING, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AS I MADE A LEFT TURN INTO A FIVE LANE ROAD. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A LOT. DEALERSHIP TOWED IT AND WITHIN A WEEK REPLACED VALVE BODY. WHEN I PICKED UP CAR, THE CAR MALFUNCTIONED AGAIN ON THE PORTER WHO BROUGHT THE CAR TO ME- SERVICE TRANSMISSION AND BREAK LIGHTS ON AGAIN (BOTH HAPPENED WITH THE VEHICLE LOST POWER THE FIRST TIME). THEY KEPT THE CAR AND REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE. TWO DAYS LATER, THE CAR IS MAKING A WHISTLING NOISE WHILE IN PARK- POSSIBLE BURNING SMELL COMING FROM REAR OF CARE WHERE THE NOISE IS MOST PREVALENT. WILL RETURN TO DEALER TODAY BUT VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS NEW VEHICLE OF ME AND MY TWO YOUNG SONS.

I WAS TRYING TO CONTINUE THROUGH A BUSY INTERSECTION, I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE CAR ACTED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. IT REVVED UP, BUT DID NOT ACCELERATE. I LOOKED DOWN AT MY GEAR SHIFT AND IT WAS STILL IN DRIVE, HOWEVER MY DASHBOARD SAID THAT THE JEEP WAS IN NEUTRAL. BECAUSE I COULD NOT CONTINUE THROUGH THE INTERSECTION, I WAS REAR ENDED BY THE PERSON BEHIND ME.

I BOUGHT A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE TRAILHAWK V6 ON 10/14/15. ON 10/16/15 WHILE DRIVING DOWN A STREET AT 45MPH, THE VEHICLE DIED. I MANAGED TO GET OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND AFTER A COUPLE OF ATTEMPTS IT STARTED AGAIN. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOW ON AND I HAD NO ACCELERATION. I MANAGED TO DRIVE 5 MILES TO THE DEALERSHIP IN "LIMP MODE" AND DROP IT OFF FOR REPAIRS. THE LAST I HEARD ON 10/17/15 WAS THAT THEY WERE GOING TO REPLACE THE TCM AND PCM AND SEE IF THAT HELPS, IT IS NOW 10/21/15 AND I DO NOT HAVE AN UPDATE.

WATER OR FLUID LEAKING FROM EXHAUST SYSTEM. AT START UP AND SHUT DOWN REAR EXHAUST.

BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN JAN. 2015. NOTICED FIRST ISSUE IN JUNE 2015 WHEN IT HAD NO POWER GOING UP A STEEP HILL. END OF JUNE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND START/STOP UNAVAILABLE. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. IT HAD 9,000 MILES AT THIS POINT. GOT CAR BACK AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION. CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY FROM A STOP. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN T-BONED NUMEROUS TIMES D/T PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC FOR A TURN AND HAVING NO POWER. ALSO WILL ACCELERATE WHEN TRYING TO BRAKE. CAR RETURNED TO DEALER, TOLD THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE. CAR CONTINUED TO HAVE SAME ISSUES AS WELL AS LOSS OF POWER WHEN GOING UP INCLINES. TOOK BACK INTO DEALER. THEY PUT A RECORDING DEVICE ON THE CAR TO MONITOR WHAT IT WAS DOING WHEN I WAS HAVING THE ISSUES. CAR ALSO STARTED GOING FORWARD WHEN I WOULD PUT IT INTO REVERSE. JUST HEARD BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THE CAR. IT NEEDS ANOTHER NEW TRANSMISSION. I AM DONE WITH THIS CAR. PRETTY SURE IT QUALIFIES AS A LEMON UNDER OHIO LAW. THEY WILL BE BUYING THIS CAR BACK FROM ME. OBVIOUSLY THE DEFECT CANNOT BE CORRECTED. IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE.

THERE HAVE BEEN 2 INCIDENTS WITHIN 6 MONTHS WHERE UPON ACCELERATION ONTO A HIGHWAY FROM AN ON-RAMP, THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY LIGHT UP DIFFERENT WARNING LIGHTS IN THE DASH STATING THAT THE 4WD IS NOT FUNCTIONING, THE AUTO STOP/START IS INACTIVE, AND THE VEHICLE WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU PRESS ON THE GAS. THE CAR STARTS RUNNING AT VERY HIGH RPMS, AROUND 4,000-5,500 RPMS, BUT WILL NO LONGER ACCELERATE PAST 40 MPH. THERE IS NO MORE POWER BEING DRIVEN TO THE ENGINE, THE RPMS ARE STUCK AT HIGH REVOLUTIONS, AND YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE. THIS OCCURRED AS SOON AS THE VEHICLE ENTERED A BUSY HIGHWAY, AND IMMEDIATELY LOST ACCELERATION POWER. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK, AND IT HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME VEHICLE AS REPORTED ON CARCOMPLAINTS.COM ANOTHER ISSUE THAT IS A SAFETY RISK IS WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION, THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT ACCELERATE BUT WILL HESITATE FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN ROUGHLY JERK INTO GEAR AND TAKE OFF. THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY RISK BECAUSE WHEN THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE, YOUR FIRST REACTION IS TO PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL MORE, BUT WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FINALLY SHIFTS INTO GEAR, IT ACCELERATES WAY TOO FAST BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF POWER YOU WERE GIVING THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAPPENS CONSTANTLY. CHRYSLER HAS TAKEN NO INTEREST IN SOLVING THESE ISSUES, AND WE HAVE ALREADY HAD A NEW ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION INSTALLED IN THIS YEAR OLD CAR, BUT NONE OF THE ISSUES HAVE BEEN RESOLVED THROUGH T

WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE SLOWS DOWN TO APPROX. 20MPH AND THEN ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HORN FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,700. UPDATED 02/12/16*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED TWO LOWER GEARS IN THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE MANUFACTURER IS BUYING THE VEHICLE BACK, AS THE SECOND TRANSMISSION WAS BEGINNING TO EXHIBIT PROBLEMS. UPDATED 03/08/16.*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I BOUGHT MY CAR 3/29/2015. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 4 TIMES IN THE 6 MONTHS SINCE I HAVE BOUT IT. IT HAD THE TRANSMISSION VALVE REPLACED, THE HARNESS REPLACES, AND AFTER ALL OF THAT STILL DID NOT FIX ANYTHING. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY HAVING A NEW TRANSMISSION PUT IN ( ONLY HAS 5,000) MILES ON IT! SO MANY COSTUMERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THEIR 2015 CHEROKEES, THEY ARE UNSAFE AND HAVE CAUSED MANY ACCIDENTS FROM TRANSMISSION FAILURES. THEY NEED TO BE RECALLED!!!

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, THE VEHICLE HAD ONLY 800 MILES ON IT AND BOTH THE "MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT" AND THE AUTO STOP/START LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THE AUTO STOP/START MADE A WARNING NOISE AND A MESSAGE CAME UP SAYING "AUTO STOP START NOT AVAILABLE HAVE IT SERVICED". IT CONTINUES TO DO THIS. WHEN DRIVING DOWN A STEEP HILL THE CAR RACES AS IF IT ISN'T GOING TO SLOW DOWN AND TWICE WHILE CLIMBING A STEEP HILL THE VEHICLE HAD NO POWER, I COULDN'T GET THE VEHICLE TO GO ANY FASTER NO MATTER HOW HARD I PUSHED DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR. IN THESE INSTANCES, THE RPMS GO AS HIGH AS 4000 AND STAY THERE AND DON'T DECREASE. TWICE I HAVE HAD TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF TO STOP THIS AND "RESET" THE VEHICLE (WHICH THE MECHANIC OF THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME TO DO). THE INSTANCES WHERE THE AUTO STOP/START WARNING COMES ON ARE WHEN I STOP AT A STOP SIGN AND WHEN I AM DRIVING ON RELATIVELY FLAT ROAD GOING BETWEEN 30 & 40 MPH. THE "RACING" OCCURS GOING DOWNHILL BETWEEN 50 & 60 MPH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V041000 (AIR BAGS), 15V393000 (STRUCTURE) AND 15V509000 (VISIBILITY) HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUES. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. UPDATED 1/12/16 *CN

I DID THE RECALL ORC MODULE SOFTWARE ON MY VEHICLE NOW I GOT A RECALL ON TH RADIO SECURITY VULNERABLILIEY THE DEALER IN MY TOWN SAYS THIS IS THE SAME RECALL, IS IT?
