2017 Jeep Cherokee complaints

I HADNT HAD MY CAR SIX MONTHS AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFTER CAME ON. TOOK HAD FIXED AT DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME IT JUST NEEDED TO BE RESET. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN A LITTLE WHILE LATER TOOK IT BACK AND THEY REPLACED THE SHIFTER. NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN. I HAV READ SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL PEOPLE CANT KEEP FIXING THIS OVER AND OVER AND OVER.

"SERVICE SHIFTER" KEEPS COMING ON AND READING OTHER REVIEWS ONLINE TELLS ME THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE AND THAT THE VEHICLE WILL GO INTO PARK RANDOMLY NO MATTER WHAT SPEED YOU'RE DRIVING AT. ONLY 64K MILES!!!

MY CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING WHILE DRIVING AND ACTED LIKE I SHIFTED IT TO NEUTRAL. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY AND WAS TOLD I NEED A TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE UPDATE. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT THING BUT MY VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. ALSO, MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULDN'T COVER IT SO I HAD TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET ALONG WITH THE DIAGNOSTIC SERVICE. NO CODES SHOWED UP EVEN THOUGH A LIGHT CAME ON WHEN IT HAPPENED TO ME TWICE THAT SAID VEHICLE MUST BE STOPPED TO SHIFT. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND IT SHOULD BE COVERED.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING CAME UP WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. THE VEHICLE HAS ROUGHLY 45000. NOTHING HAPPENED THIS TIME BUT I HAVE SEEN THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE AND CAN LEAD TO THE VEHICLE SHUTTING OFF IN MOTION.

I'VE HAD THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COME AND OFF SINCE I BOUGHT IT USED 15 MONTHS AGO. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. TWO DAYS AGO, I WAS DRIVING 40 MPH AND THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING AND A LIGHT CAME ON THAT SAID CAR MUST BE STOPPED TO SHIFT. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, I PUT IT IN PARK AND BACK TO DRIVE BUT THE ENGINE JUST REVVED SO I TURNED IT OFF AND BACK ON BEFORE I COULD GET IT TO GO. THE NIGHT BEFORE I DROVE ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WON'T EVEN LOOK AT IT FOR A WEEK. I'M SCARED TO DEATH DRIVING IT. THEY WON'T GIVE ME A LOANER ALTHOUGH I BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I STARTED RESEARCHING AND SAW MANY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT AND TO COME HERE TO FILE A COMPLAINT. I WANT JEEP TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. I COULDN'T TRADE THIS SOON WITHOUT LOSING MONEY. I BOUGHT A NEW CAR TO HAVE A SAFE VEHICLE AND NOW I'M AFRAID OF HAVING AN ACCIDENT UNLESS THIS CAN BE FIXED.

EVERY TIME I START MY CAR AFTER A FEW MILES IT SAYS SERVICE SHIFTER BUT EVERYTHING IS IN SPEC. ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER LIGHT UP. BUT THERE IS NO ISSUE SHIFTING

WHILE IN MOTION, LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER COME ON A SAY SERVICE SHIFTER. PREVIOUSLY, WHEN THIS HAPPENED, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF.

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHTS COME ON WHEN STARTING AND DRIVING

AFTER STARTING CAR IN MORNING, THE SHIFTER WAS PUT INTO DRIVE. WHILE SHIFTER WAS IN DRIVE THE LIGHT BESIDE SHIFTER WAS BLINKING. THEN A MESSAGE POPPED UP ON THE DASH SAYING TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL OR PARK. VEHICLE WAS PUT IN PARK, THEN BACK IN DRIVE AND A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODE WAS U0001 FOR A CAN C BUS. WHEN PUSHING ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL THE CAR WAS LAGGING AND DID NOT SEEM TO RESPOND THE SAME AS IT USUALLY WOULD. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND THE ROOT CAUSE. THEY CLEARED THE CODE AND LET ME LEAVE.

ON OCTOBER 20, 2020, I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED IN RESPONSE TO A 'SERVICE SHIFTER' WARNING INDICATOR. THE DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT THE 'SHIFTER BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS' WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AND COMPLETED THE REPAIR EARLIER TODAY AT A COST OF $325.88. DESPITE HAVING PURCHASED A SUPPLEMENTAL SERVICE PROTECTION PLAN THROUGH ASC, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE WARRANTY CLAIM HAD BEEN DENIED AS THE 'AGREEMENT DOES NOT HAVE COVERAGE ON WIRING OR WIRING HARNESSES' AND THAT 'THE BEZEL IS CONSIDERED A BODY PART BY THE MANUFACTURER WHICH IS NOT COVERABLE.' MOST DISTURBING, BASED UPON A REVIEW OF COMPLAINTS GENERATED FOLLOWING A GOOGLE SEARCH, THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM THAT HAS AFFECTED A NUMBER OF JEEPS SINCE AT LEAST 2014. I'M AT A LOSS AS TO WHY THIS IS BEING TREATED LIKE A COSMETIC REPAIR WHEN THIS COMPONENT IS CRITICAL TO THE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE AND HAS BEEN A RECURRENT ISSUE FOR OVER FIVE YEARS. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HOW THIS ISSUE IS BEING ADDRESSED BY JEEP'BOTH IN TERMS OF COVERING THESE REPAIRS AND CORRECTING THE UNDERLYING ISSUES THAT ARE CAUSING THE PROBLEM.

BACKING UP MY JEEP AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARED IN THE DASH AND RED LIGHTS CAME ON THE BY THE SHIFTER. I PUT IT BACK IN PARK AND RESTARTED MY JEEP. LIGHTS AND ERROR MESSAGE WENT AWAY.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON WITH ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE PANEL STAYING LIGHT. THIS HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN THE SPACE OF TWO DAYS, BUT SHUT OFF WHEN THE CAR TURNED OFF. YESTERDAY ALL THE LIGHTS STAYED ON AND THE SCREEN WOULD ONLY SHOW SERVICE SHIFTER. JUST WENT OVER 17K MILES ON MY 2017 CHEROKEE. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THE MECHANIC WAS A BIT NONCHALANT. " DON'T WORRY. WE SEE A LOT OF THIS. IT COULD BE A WIRE OR A FUSE OR A PIN OR I MIGHT HAVE TO REPLACE THE PLASTIC AND THE GEAR SHIFTER." LEFT IT AT THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX, PROBABLY TAKE A WEEK OR TWO TO FIX ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC. I WAS LOOKING AT THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS PAGE AND IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE NUMEROUS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. WONDERING WHY IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING SERVICE SHIFTER COMES UP ON DASHBOARD AND ALL GEAR LIGHTS ARE LIT UP. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE ABOUT 6MONTHS INTO OWNING CAR. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S NOT A PROBLEM BUT NOW MY CAR WONT START.

JAN. 2020 THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. NOW 4 TIMES SEPT. 2020 SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT HAS COME ON. JULY 2020 AIR CONDITION HAD TO BR REPLACED.

2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE SERVICE SHIFTER COMES CODE COMES ON DRIVER DASH PANEL DISPLAY. BROUGHT TO DEALER WITHIN 1ST TWO WEEKS OF PURCHASE OF OF A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED VEHICLE WITH UNDER 20,000 MILES. DEALERSHIP INITIALLY WASN'T ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND THEREFORE THE ISSUE WAS NOT ADDRESSED. WITHIN A FEW DAYS, ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN. BROUGHT BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND THE ERROR CODE. HOWEVER, AFTER A FEW MORE WEEKS, THE ISSUE OCCURED AGAIN AND THEN THEY WERE ABLE TO FINALLY SAY IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND WOULD BE FIXED AND THAT IT WAS A SHIFTER ISSUE. NOW, MONTHS LATER, WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR JUST STOPPED WITH A SHIFTER ERROR ON THE DASH. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND STOP THE VEHICLE AND RE-START THE VEHICLE AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS AND THE CODE IS NO LONGER THERE. WE IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALER AND GARAGED THE CAR FOR ALMOST ONE WEEK UNTIL THE APPOINTMENT. " THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I AM NOW TOLD IT IS STILL A SHIFTER ISSUE AND THAT IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I AM NOT SURE HOW THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER A POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. THE CAR LOST POWER WHILE WERE DRIVING. LUCKILY, WE WERE ONLY IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE SHIFTER IS FAULTY AND EVEN IF PAYING OUT OF POCKET WILL NOT RECTIFY THE ISSUE. THERE ARE LOTS OF SIMILAR REPORTS FILE HERE ON THE NHTSA SITE FOR THE 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. I WOULD LIKE THIS DOCUMENTED HERE IN THE EVENT THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL OR FUTURE INCIDENT WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP WAS CENTRAL IN NORWOOD, MA

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT APPEARS AND ALL LIGHTS GO RED ON GEAR SHIFTER.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL THE SHIFTER LIGHTS LIGHT UP AND TURN RED

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING CAME ON IN INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ALL RED LIGHTS ON GEAR PANEL WERE LIT UP AS I WAS SHIFTED FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE BACKING FROM MY DRIVEWAY.

RANDOM AND INCONSISTENT SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE. SOMETIMES DISAPPEARS FOR MONTHS(THOUSANDS OF MILES). HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN TOTAL. VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES. PURCHASED BRAND NEW. ALWAYS WHILE DRIVING. NEVER WHILE IN PARK. SHIFTER INDICATOR LIGHTS UP READ AND ERROR DISPLAYED ON DASHBOARD.

ON 10/7/2020 THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON AND ALL LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER TURN RED AS I WAS GETTING ONTO INTERSTATE 88 IN ILLINOIS. ON 10 /8/2020 IT CAME ON AGAIN WHILE DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET. HAVE READ ABOUT THIS HAPPENING TO OTHERS AND CAUSING WRECKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE REMAINED ILLUMINATED. AFTER TURNING OFF AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, THE MESSAGE DISAPPEARED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER PARKWAY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 311 COMMERCIAL PKWY, DOVER, OH 44622, AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CABLE WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,000.

WHEN STARTING MY CAR THE 'SERVICE SHIFTER' WARNING IS DISPLAYED AND ALL RED LIGHTS COME ON FOR PNRD. THIS WILL SOMETIMES GO AWAY AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND TURNED BACK ON AGAIN. IT MAY ALSO APPEAR WHILE ALREADY DRIVING ON CITY STREET OR FREEWAY.

VEHICLE WON'T START NO CLICK OR CRANK ALL LIGHTS ARE ON AND DASH READS ENGINE TOO HOT , VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN RUNNING FOR ABOUT 3 HOURS TODAY.

RANDOMLY, FROM TIME TO TIME WHILE DRIVING, MY SHIFTER LIGHTS ALL TURN RED AND MY MESSAGE CENTER READS SERVICE SHIFTER. I PARK MY JEEP, TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON, AND THE MESSAGE GOES AWAY. IT BEGAN DOING THIS WITH ONLY 29,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE.

SERVICE SHIFTER AT 40000 MILES AND NOW AT 54000 MILES JEEP IS SPUTTERING WHEN ACCELERATING AND JEEP WILL NOT START. BATTER AND ALTERNATOR ARE GOOD.

"SERVICE SHIFTER" WARNING LIGHT STARTED COMING ON ON THE DRIVER DISPLAY THIS SUMMER, ACCOMPANIED WITH A WARNING CHIME. AT FIRST INTERMITTENTLY, NOW IT IS ON PRETTY MUCH FULL TIME AFTER MOVING INTO GEAR. I AM UNABLE TO USE 4WD, SEE ELECTRONIC SPEEDOMETER, GAS CONSUMPTION GAUGES OR OTHER INFORMATION ON VEHICLE DUE TO THE ERROR MESSAGE. TOOK TO WYLER EASTGATE JEEP ON 7/16, THEY INFORMED ME THE BEZEL ON THE SHIFTER NEEDED REPLACEMENT, AND THE PART WOULD BE IN THE FOLLOWING WEEK. I HAD THEM KEEP THE CAR FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEK. THE FOLLOWING WEEK THEY NOTIFIED ME IT WAS POSSIBLE THE PART WOULDN'T BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE END OF THE JULY, BUT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY SO IT WOULDN'T COST ME ANYTHING. I HAVE SINCE FOLLOWED UP IN AUGUST AND AGAIN LAST WEEK AS THE DEALER NEVER CALLED BACK ON THE STATUS. THE LATEST CALL WAS ON 9/29 (ALMOST 3 MONTHS SINCE FIRST APPOINTMENT), AND THE PARTS DEPARTMENT CONTACT TOLD ME THAT OF THE TWO PARTS NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR, ONE WAS PLACED ON "INCREASED BACKORDER STATUS" FROM JEEP, MEANING THAT THE DEALERSHIPS WERE "BLOCKED" FROM ORDERING IT OR IT EVEN BEING SENT OUT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY ARE NOW UNAWARE OF WHEN THE PART MIGHT BECOME AVAILABLE AGAIN. FROM THIS EXPERIENCE AND THE COMMENTS, IT SOUNDS AS THOUGH THE PART IS FAULTY, HENCE IT WON'T BE USED ON A REPAIR. SOUNDS LIKE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUED IF THE PART IS FAULTY AND THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS IS SO WIDESPREAD, AND JEEP HASN'T ADDRESSED IT TO CONSUMERS OR DEALERS. MY 2017 CH

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL GEARS LIGHT UP. CAR MAKES LOUD CLUNK NOISE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS AND HAS A HARD TIME SWITCHING GEARS. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT ELECTRONIC SHIFTER BEZEL AND PIGTAIL NEED TO BE REPLACED. KNOWN PROBLEM OF THE JEEP CHEROKEE.

WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP THE SCREEN LIGHTS UP AND FLASHES SERVICE SHIFTER, IT THEN LIGHTS UP THE WHOLE PANEL PRND IN RED AND MAKES IT HARD TO STEER ONE I STOP AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF IT GOES AWAY BUT WILL POP UP RANDOMLY

OUR BRAND NEW VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR MAINTENANCE SEVERAL TIMES, DUE TO SERVICE SHIFTER AND SERVICE 4X4. THIS IS ALL DUE TO A FAULTY SHIFTER BEZEL AND FAULTY WIRING TO THE SHIFTER BEZEL. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND WELL KNOWN IF YOU DO GOOGLE SEARCHES ON THIS VEHICLE. CAN THIS BE LOOKED INTO? ITS NOT FAIR FOR THE CUSTOMER AND DEFINITELY AN ISSUE IF THE DEALER KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THE ISSUE IS BEFORE RECEIVING THE CAR. MAKE THIS A RECALL ALREADY. WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE? BECAUSE IT PREVENTS THE VEHICLE FROM BEING THROWN INTO 4X4 AND ALSO CAUSES SOME VEHICLES TO LOOSE CONTROL FROM WHAT I AM READING. IN MY CASE, MY VEHICLE CAN NOT GO INTO 4X4.

'SERVICE SHIFTER' NOTIFICATION AFTER STARTING CAR, STAYED ON DURING ENTIRE DRIVE UNTIL CAR WAS POWERED OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN WHEN THE NOTIFICATION DISAPPEARED. WHILE NOTIFICATION WAS ON DASHBOARD, ALL RED LIGHTS (INDICATING PARK, NEUTRAL, REVERSE, DRIVE) WERE LIT UP RED ON SHIFTER. NOTIFICATION APPEARED INITIALLY WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK AND DID NOT DISAPPEAR THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE DRIVE (0-70MPH) UNTIL VEHICLE WAS POWERED OFF.

MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE HAS 32,000 MILES ON IT AND SUDDENLY MY "SERVICE SHIFTER" MESSAGE CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL JEEPS THAT HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. IT IS GOING TO COST ME OVER $300 TO REPAIR THIS ERROR MESSAGE. I FEEL THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE AND WANTED TO MAKE SURE MY COMPLAINT IS RECORDED. THIS REPAIR THAT NO ONE SEEMS TO REALLY KNOW MUCH ABOUT IS A VERY SERIOUS HIT TO MY FAMILY'S BUDGET.

SERVICE SHIFTIER GOING OFF WHILE ON EXPRESSWAY!

THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE HAS BEEN COMING ON AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER COME ON AS WELL. THE PAST 10 DAYS THE CAR HAS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN (NO POWER) WHILE DRIVING. THEN WHEN I TRY TO RESTART IT HAS TAKEN A BIT BEFORE IT WILL START. I HAVE HAD TO TURN HAZARD LIGHTS ON IN MIDDLE OF ROAD WHERE I AM STOPPED. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE PAST 10 DAYS. DRY WEATHER, GOING APPROXIMATELY 30 TO 40 MPH. NO RECALL BUT I SEE MANY OF THESE SAME ISSUES ONLINE IN BLOGS.

TRANSMISSION LOST POWER AND LOSS OF PROPULSION WILL NOT ENGAGE IN PARK., HAD NO WARNING, STRANDED 477 MILES FROM HOME. HAVING SOMEONE FROM COLORADO COMING TO TOW IT BACK TO COLORADO. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE WITH JEEP BUT MINE WAS NOT ENCLUDED. STOPPED FOR GAS WENT TO TAKE OFF TO GET ON INTERSTATE AND QUIT. AND HERE WE SIT. IT HAD A RECALL IN SEPTEMBER 2017 FOR A SHIFT CONTROL MODULE PLUS TRANSMISSION UPDATE WHICH WE HAD DONE, WASN'T NO ISSUE TILL TODAY. SEEMS IT'S A PROBLEM IN JEEPS. THANK YOU.

THE SHIFTER DOES NOT SHIFT THE GEARS CORRECTLY NOT COMMUNICATING TO THE ENGINE ALL LIGHTS ARE RED ON SHIFTER GEAR MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER HOSE WAS NEVER ADDED TO PASSENGERS SIDE MAKING VISIBILITY HARD IN SLUSH OR WINTER WEATHER WITH ONLY THE DRIVER SIDE HOSE HOOKED UP IT DOESN'T CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD PROPERLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO EASTGATE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (500 SHADELAND AVE, INDIANAPOLIS, IN 46219; (317) 352-9361) WHO WERE UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE DUE TO THERE NOT BEING A WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHO REPLACED THE SHIFTER AND THE WIRING HOUSING. THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE NOTICED THAT WHEN IT WAS COLD OUTSIDE THEY NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO OPEN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ONCE THE TEMPERATURE WAS WARMER, SHE COULD HEAR WATER MOVING AROUND INSIDE THE DOOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 516.

SERVICE SHIFTER KEEPS POPPING ON MY DASHBOARD. CAR CAN BE TURNED OFF, KEY REMOVED FROM IGNITION, THEN WHEN STARTED AGAIN THE MESSAGE WILL GO AWAY. MESSAGE WILL REAPPEAR AFTER ABOUT 100 MILES OF DRIVING. MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN!

I'VE NEEDED TO ADD A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW. I RETURNED THE CAR TO THE DEALER AT APPROXIMATELY 3200 MILES AND WAS PUT ON AN "OIL CONSUMPTION MONITORING PROGRAM" WHERE I RETURNED THE CAR EVERY 1000 MILES FOR MEASURING THE OIL CONSUMPTION. THIS WAS DONE EVERY 1000 MILES AND THE CAR NOW HAS 15,700 MILES. WHEN I RETURNED TO THE DEALER TIME BEFORE LAST, I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE IT ANOTHER 1000 MILES, RETURN AND IF OIL MUST BE ADDED, CHRYSLER WILL "REPLACE THE ENGINE." WHEN I SCHEDULED MY LAST CONSUMPTION CHECK, I WAS TOLD CHRYSLER NOW UPPED THE CHECKING INTERVAL TO 1500 MILES. I THEREFOR DROVE THE CAR ANOTHER 500 MILES AND RETURNED TO THE DEALER ON 9/21/2020 WHERE THE THE CAR WAS CHECKED IN. AFTER THE CAR WAS CHECKED, THE SERVICE CHECK IN GUY TOLD ME THEY ADDED ANOTHER QUART, AND THAT I NEEDED TO PUT YET ANOTHER "1500 TO 1700" MILES ON THE VEHICLE, THEN RETURN FOR ANOTHER FINAL CHECK, AND IF OIL WAS NEEDED, THEY WOULD (ONCE AGAIN) REPLACE THE ENGINE. I UNDERSTAND FROM THE SERVICE PERSONAL, THAT IF THE ENGINE OIL QUANTITY DROPS TO TWO QUARTS BELOW FULL, THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF, AND THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CONSTANTLY COMES ON. 2017 CHEROKEE HAS BEEN HAPENNING SINCE 20,000 - NOW HAVE 30,000 . HAVE SEEN AND HEARD HORROR STORIES. DEALER SAYS NO ISSUES. WANTS TO CHARGE FOR REPAIRS.

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT COMES ON REGULARLY. THE CAR NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN AND RESTARTED MANY TIMES TO CLEAR THE FAULT. MANY CASES OF THIS ISSUE HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS A SYSTEMATIC ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE TYPES REQUIRING A RECALL

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON & ALL LIGHTS IN GEAR SELECT COME ON. THIS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. I CAN ONLY FIND INVOICES FOR TWO TIMES. EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT NEEDED AN UPDATE THEY DID THAT 2 DAYS LATER THE SAME THING. TOOK IT BACK NOW THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SHIFTER AND COMPONENTS SAYS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD TODAY(SEPT 19,2020), THE CAR BEEPED GIVING ME A WARNING ON THE SCREEN TO SERVICE SHIFTER, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE CONSOLE LIT UP RED. I PULLED THE CAR OVER, SHUT.IT OFF FOR 30 MIN. WHEN I STARTED IT BACK UP THE WARNING WENT OFF SO FAR BUT HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT AGAIN YET.

I HAVE ERROR MESSAGES THAT DISPLAY SAYING SERVICE GEAR SHIFTER NOW AND 4 WHEEL DRIVE UNAVILABLE. THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT CASE GENERALLY WHEN I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN THE SERVICE GEAR SHIFTER LIGHTS COME ON ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY GEAR SHIFTER LIGHT UP AS WELL. THIS ONLY HAPPENS ABOUT 1X A MONTH. I TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE CENTER AND WAS TOLD I THINK I KNWO WHAT COULD BE CASING IT BUT WE COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND IF WE CANNOT GET THE CODE WE CANNOT FIX IT. UNFORTUNITLY WE WILL EITHER HAVE TO HAVE IT BROUGHT IN WHILE ITS DOING IT OR IT MAY HAVE TO COMPLETELY BREAK BEFORE WE CAN FIX IT. THERE IS A RECALL FOR OTEHR JEEPS SAME MAKE AND MODEL BUT NOT MY VIN. I ASKED IF THIS WAS UNSAFE FOR ME AND MY TWO YOUNG DAUGHTR AND WAS TOLD I DONT THINK SO. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH SINCE AND FOUND PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE THAT HAVE ALMOST DIED. I HAVE RECORDS SHOWING THEY WERE ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN IT OCCURED AND THERE JEEP LOCKED UP CASUING THEM TO BE HIT BY A SIMI TRUCK. THE JEEP WAS MANGLED. I HAVE INCLUDED PICTURES THE 1ST 4 OUR NOT MINE THE LAST IS AND I HAVE ONE OF ALL THE LIGHTS IN ON MY GEAR SHIFTER AS WELL BUT IT WOULD NOT ALLOW ANOTHER PICTURE.

SERVICE SHIFTER POPS UP WHEN STARTING VEHICLE

SINCE ABOUT 5K MILES MY SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON PERIODICALLY. DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED AND SAID THERE'S NO CODES SO DON'T WORRY WITH IT. NOW EVERY TIME I MAKE A LEFT TURN IT COMES ON. CLEARS WHEN YOU TURN VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON UNTIL NEXT LEFT TURN. NOW I HAVE 122K ON IT STILL HAPPENS. SOMETIMES IT WILL CAUSE ERRATIC ACCELERATION. AT A STOP LIGHT IT WILL TURN ON THE PARKING BRAKE AND KILL THE ENGINE. AGAIN CLEARS WITH TURN OFF ON

WHEN I START MY CAR THE DISPLAY ON THE DASHBOARD SHOWS 'SERVICE SHIFTER' AND ALL THE GEAR NAME LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER LIGHT UP RED. THE NOTIFICATION ON THE DISPLAY WILL NOT GO AWAY AND THE LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL THE ENGINE IS TURNED OFF. THIS HAPPENS IF THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY WHEN THE ENGINE IS TURNED ON AND SOMETIMES WILL HAPPEN RANDOMLY WHOLE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. OFTEN THIS WILL HAPPEN AS I AM IN THE PROCESS OF BRAKING TO PARK AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THIS HAPPENS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, BUT MOST OFTEN AT LOWER LEVEL SPEEDS IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS.

SHIFTER LIGHTS COME ON WHEN DRIVING A LOT. HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN OFF THEN RESTART. THIS IS DANGERS AS IT IS HAPPENING ON A HIGHWAY

THE "SERVICE SHIFTER" WARNING COMES UP ON THE SCREEN SOMETIMES WHEN THE VEHICLE IS FIRST TURNED ON AND OTHER TIMES IT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. WE TOOK IT DO THE DEALER AND THEY SCANNED CODES AND THE CODE FOR A PROBLEM DETECTED WITH THE ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE CAME UP. THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER REPLACED THE SHIFTER BEZEL AND THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THAT PART. THIS WAS DONE JULY 19, 2019. WITHIN THE LAST 2 MONTHS, THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING AGAIN; SO NOW THE PART AND WIRING HARNESS NEEDS REPLACED AGAIN.

HAVING SERIOUS SHIFTING ISSUES AND IT IS BEING IGNORED BY THE MANUFACTURER AS SOMETHING THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE A CHARACTERISTIC FOR THIS VEHICLE WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE.
