2019 Jeep Cherokee complaints

MY CAR CONTINUES TO STALL INTERMITTENTLY. I RECEIVED MY CAR BACK FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON 31-OCT-2019. LATER THAT DAY, ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK, MY CAR STALLED GOING APPROXIMATELY 25 MILES PER HOUR. THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND CAME TO A STOP ON THE 405 FREEWAY. I WAS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, WHICH MAY HAVE SAVED MY LIFE SINCE OTHER VEHICLES WERE DRIVING SLOW AND AT TIMES STOPPED. THIS ALLOWED ME SOME TIME WHILE I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT RE-STARTED AND I MADE IT HOME.

VEHICLE WILL NOT FULLY ENGAGE INTO "DRIVE". VEHICLE WILL JERK AND LUNGE FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS BEFORE IT IS FULLY ENGAGED INTO "DRIVE". HAPPENS MOST OFTEN ON COLD START UPS AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS SAT FOR AT LEAST 2 HOURS.

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE PARK/NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH.

I HAD JUST PURCHASED MY VEHICLE THE DAY BEFORE. WHILE AT A STOP SIGN THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART AFTER RELEASING THE BRAKE. THE ENGINE STALLED, THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND A MESSAGE THAT READ TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK THEN BACK INTO GEAR. TRIED THAT SEVERAL TIMES, IF I RELEASED THE BRAKE IT WOULD ROLL BACK. I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK SHUT THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. ONCE I DID THAT THE VEHICLE RAN FINE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE, NO CODE CAME UP. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A BAD BATTERY. I DO ON OCCASION FEEL LIKE THE CAR IS GOING TO STALL WHILE DRIVING OR FROM A STOPPED POSITION.

MY 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE WAS JUST EXITING THE INTERSTATE AND APPROACHED A LIGHT ON THE OFF RAMP. UPON STOPPING AND TRYING TO ACCELERATE MY JEEP BEGAN BEEPING AND THE "DRIVE (D)" STARTED BLINKING ON THE DASH AND GEAR. DURING THIS TIME MY VEHICLE WOULD ROLL BACKWARDS TO THE OFF RAMP UNLESS THE EMERGENCY BREAK WAS ENGAGED. I WAS NOT ABLE TO PRESS THE GAS, SHIFTING INTO OTHER GEARS DID NOT DO ANYTHING AND THE BREAKS WERE LOCKED OUT. I WAS SITTING IN THE BIKE LANE BLOCKING TRAFFIC AND HOPING TO NOT GET HIT. I WAS ABLE TO ROLL DOWNHILL ABOUT 50FT AND STEER ONTO A SIDE STREET. ONCE THERE I AGAIN TRIED TO SHIFT TO DIFFERENT GEARS AND NOTHING SEEMED TO WORK. AS MENTIONED MY BREAKS WERE LOCKED AND THE GAS PEDAL WAS OUT OF SERVICE. FINALLY, AFTER EXITING THE MAJOR INTERSECTION I TRIED TURNING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND IT SEEMED TO CLEAR THE ERROR. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP FOR THIS PROBLEM. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS THOUGH. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED SECONDS BEFORE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATHS COULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED.

CAR WILL ABRUPTLY STOP WITH NO WARNING THEN BATTERY LIGHT WILL TURN ON. CANNOT ALWAYS GET CAR TO CRANK BACK OVER QUICKLY.

WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY DURING RUSH HOUR, IN THE FAST LANE TRAVELING AT 70 MPHS, THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. IT WAS LEFT COSTING AND SLOWING IN SPEED. NO STEERING OR BREAKING WERE EFFECTED. ONCE I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE BREAKDOWN LANE THE THE ENGINE DID RESTART WHILE IN LOW SPEED (30MPH) AND CREEPING ALONG THE BREAK DOWN LANE THE ENGINE WAS 3RPMS AND SHUT OFF AGAIN. NEEDING TOWING AND IS CURRENTLY IN FOR REPAIR. 1900 MILES TO THE VEHICLE.

I HAVE A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE WITH 4,800 MILES. PERIODICALLY WHILE DRIVING, THE BATTERY/VOLTAGE INDICATOR COMES ON AND THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN. IT HAS BEEN VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS. THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED ON SLOWER, CITY STREETS SO FAR. THE CAR RESTARTS AFTER ITS PUT IN PARK. ITS AT THE DEALER, BUT NO LUCK FINDING A CAUSE YET. I HAVE ATTACHED A PHOTO OF WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE WHEN IT LAST OCCURED.

FIRST WE WEREN'T ABLE TO TAKE VEHICLE HOME THE DAY WE SIGNED THE FINANCE PAPERS, 8/19/18, DUE TO BATTERY BEING DEAD. WE THEN PICKED UP CAR ON 8/20/18. KEPT VEHICLE TILL AROUND THE 23RD. THE JEEP CHEROKEE TURNED OFF IN TRAFFIC AND WENT INTO BATTERY PROTECTION MODE. WE HAD TO PUT CAR IN PARK AND RESTART. WE WERE ALMOST REAR-ENDED. I THEN CALLED DEALERSHIP TO TALK TO SALESMAN AND HE WAS BUSY SO I ASKED FOR MANAGER WHO THEN TOLD ME THAT THE SALESMAN WOULD CALL ME BACK. WHEN I TOLD SALESMAN ABOUT THE INCIDENT I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE WITH START-STOP FUNCTION OFF AND TO WAIT TILL NEXT DAY TO SEE IF IT DID IT AGAIN. THE VEHICLE DIDN'T START IN THE MORNING AND THEN TRIED SECOND TIME AND IT TURNED ON IN BATTERY PROTECTION MODE SO I TOOK IT IN TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS GIVEN A LOANER. WE THEN PICKED UP CHEROKEE ON OR AROUND 8/31/18. WE WERE TOLD THE BATTERY WAS RECHARGED. THE CHEROKEE THEN STARTED TO TURN OFF AGAIN IN TRAFFIC SO I TOOK IT BACK ON 9/5/18. I WAS GIVEN ANOTHER LOANER. I WAS THEN TOLD TO PICK UP CHEROKEE ON 9/18/18. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND COULDN'T RECREATE THE INCIDENT. EVER SINCE WE RECEIVED THE CHEROKEE BACK ON THE 18TH WE KEEP THE START-STOP FUNCTION OFF. NOW THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSORS KEEP COMING ON AND OFF AND THE GAS IS GOING AT A FASTER RATE THEN BEFORE. NOT SURE IF SENSORS ARE WORKING CORRECTLY. TOOK CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP ON SUNDAY 10/14/18 AND WAS TOLD TO CALL SERVICE THE NEXT DAY BECAUSE THEY HAD NO LOANERS. TODAY 10/21/18 VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE D

2019 JEEP CHEROKEE WITH ABOUT 2000 MILES ON IT SUDDENLY STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH TWICE NOW. AFTER PUTTING IT IN PARK AND A FEW TRIES AT RESTARTING THE CAR RAN OK. THIS OCCURRED ON 10/17/18 AND 10/19/18 WITHIN A HALF MILE FROM HOME AFTER STARTING IT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE MORNING. WEATHER CONDITION WAS APPROXIMATELY 70 AND SUNNY AFTER OVERNIGHT TEMPS OF ONLY LOW 60'S. LOOKING ONLINE AT COMPLAINTS, THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING WITH NO REAL REMEDY FROM DEALERSHIPS. I TOO HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP AND HOPE THEY FIND A ISSUE THAT CAN BE FIXED.

MY 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE WILL JUST RANDOMLY SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVE I WILL LOSE POWER TO POWER STEERING AND ENGINE

WHILE STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN, THE D ON THE GEAR SHIFT STARTED FLASHING. I LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND THE CAR STARTED ROLLING BACKWARDS. I HAD TO STOP, TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT. UPON TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT DIDN'T THROW ANY CODES AND TO BRING IT BACK IT IF HAPPENS AGAIN.

VEHICLE WAS LEASED ON 10/5/18. ON 10/13/18 WITH 342 MILES WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY TOWARDS THE MOUNTAINS AND MAKING A TURN INTO AN EXIT THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND STEERING WHEEL SERVICE LIGHT WENT ON. THE CAR ALMOST SMASHED INTO THE SIDEWALL. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE IN TIME TO AVOID ANY ACCIDENTS. THERE WAS ALSO BURNED SMELL COMING OUT OF THE HOOD. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME THAT THEY HAVE NO AVAILABLE LOAN CARS AT THE MOMENT AND TO REACH OUT TO CHRYSLER CORP. I HAVE STILL HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP NOR THE CASE MANAGER FROM CHRYSLER CORPORATION. I HAVE MADE NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO REACH TO SOMEONE WITH NO LUCK. I AM SURPRISED AT THE WAY THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I LEASED THE CAR, THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CAR WAS LEFT FOR DIAGNOSES AND THE CHRYSLER CORP IS HANDLING THIS ISSUE.

WHILE VEHICLE IN MOTION, CHARGING SYSTEM/BATTERY WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. WITHIN 5 MINUTES OF THIS INCIDENT, TIRE PRESSURE/RUN FLAT WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. RECOMMENDED PRESSURE OF 36 PSI INCORRECT. RECEIVED 2 RECALL NOTIFICATIONS ON APP AND EMAIL. THEN BOTH RECALLS DISAPPEARED.

DRIVING THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE BUILDING UNDERGROUND PARKING GARAGE THE VEHICLE STOPPED MOVING SUDDENLY AND STARTING GOING BACKWARD I PUT THE EMERGENCY BREAK ON RESTARTED THE ENGINE RELEASED THE BREAK BUT IT DIDN'T RESPOND SO I DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST PARKING SPACE IN THE PARKING LOT TRIED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE THE ENGINE WOULD START BUT BOTH BREAKING SYSTEM IS ON AND WOULDN'T RELEASEAND STEERING WHEEL IS NOT TURNING. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY GAVE ME THE NUMBER FOR THE JEEP TOWING SERVICE. THE VEHICLE WENT IN TO THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT THE TOLD ME THE ALTERNATOR IS OVER CHARGING AND NEEDS A NEW PART THEY REPLACED THE PART THEY THEN INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT WORKING STILL AND THEY ARE NOT SURE WHAT'S WRONG YET.

VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RE-START THE ENGINE. TWO TIMES WHEN IT HAPPENED, I WASN'T GOING FAST ENOUGH TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER, SO HAD TO START THE VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. VEHICLE HAS A HARD TIME STARTING ONCE STALLED. SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME OIL WAS LOW, VEHICLE WASN'T DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE YET. NO WARNINGS OR INDICATOR LIGHTS THAT OIL LEVEL WAS LOW. SERVICE TECHNICIAN SAID TO CHECK OIL EVERY 1000 MILES, ON A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. SAID THIS ENGINE USES A LOT OF OIL. I'M CONCERNED AT PULLING ONTO A BUSY ROAD OR INTO TRAFFIC AND HAVING VEHICLE DIE ON ME AND GETTING HIT.

THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT 40 MILES PER HOUR. THE CAR HAD 972 MILES ON IT, AND WAS PURCHASED NEW A FEW WEEKS AGO. *DT CONSUMER STATED CAR IS NOT REPAIRED AND THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. UPDATED 11/30/18*JB

A WEEK AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE I STARTED TO FEEL IT SHIFT ROUGH AND HARD. CAN LITERALLY HEAR IT SHIFT LIKE METAL ON METAL. GOT PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. WAS TOLD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY. THIS IS VERY DISHEARTENING. A BRAND NEW 2019 VEHICLE. I DID RESEARCH ON THIS CAR BEFORE I BOUGHT IT. IT SEEMS THE 2014 AND 2015 MODELS WERE THE ONES WITH THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. THERE WAS NOT MUCH COMPLAINT-WISE AFTER THOSE YEARS, SO I THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE IT A SHOT AS THE VEHICLE WAS REASONABLY PRICED AND HAD EVERYTHING I WANTED. WELL, IT SEEMS THIS 2019 IS EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES AS THE 2014 AND 2015 MODELS. THEY ORDERED THE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY AND HAD IT INSTALLED. IT SOMEWHAT HELPED WITH HIGHER GEARS BUT IT STRUGGLES FINDING LOWER GEARS STILL AND THERE IS SEVERE HESITATION WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND THEN ACCELERATING. VERY HARD TO CLEAR INTERSECTIONS WHEN MAKING LEFT TURNS AND IT SLAMMED INTO FIRST GEAR VERY HARD ONE TIME SLOWING DOWN AND THEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. YOU CAN ALSO HEAR IT SHIFT LOUDLY WHEN IT DOWN SHIFTS TO FIRST GEAR, AGAIN LIKE METAL ON METAL AS I STATED ABOVE.

THE VEHICLE IS BURNING OIL. THERE ARE NO LEAKS ANYWHERE ON THE ENGINE COMPONENTS OR ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. I HAVE ALWAYS CHECKED MY OIL FAITHFULLY ON ALL MY VEHICLES AS I GO OUT OF TOWN ONCE A MONTH. WHEN I GOT THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW I IMMEDIATELY CHECKED THE FLUID LEVELS. THE OIL LEVEL WAS HALF WAY BETWEEN THE HASH MARKS ON THE DIP STICK. WITHIN A MONTH AND A HALF I NOTICED A DECREASE IN THE OIL LEVEL. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 5 MONTHS AND THE OIL LEVEL IS BARELY ABOVE WHERE THE HASH MARKS START. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I REPORTED THIS WHEN THEY REPLACED MY TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY DUE TO ANOTHER ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THE OIL IS WITHIN THE HASH MARKS AND IT IS FINE. IT IS NOT FINE WHEN A NEW VEHICLE IS BURNING THIS MUCH OIL. I HAVE READ REPORTS OF THE VEHICLE STALLING BEING LOW ON OIL. I CANNOT HAVE THIS HAPPEN TO ME GOING OUT OF TOWN. I HAVE SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THIS ADDRESSED AGAIN BECAUSE THEY DID NOT DOCUMENT ANYTHING WHEN I REPORTED IT TO THE DEALER THE FIRST TIME. *DT UPDATED 12/11/18*JB

DRIVING UP A HILL TO A STOP SIGN AND ONCE I REACHED THE TOP OF THE HILL AT THE STOP SIGN THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN. THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. NO OTHER LIGHTS. WAS ABLE TO PUT IN PARK AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE RAN ROUGH RIGHT AFTER THIS HAPPENED. I WAS ONLY A COUPLE BLOCKS FROM MY HOME SO PULLED INTO MY GARAGE AND SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. LET IT SIT A COUPLE MINUTES. RESTARTED IT AND DROVE IT A FEW BLOCKS. EVERYTHING SEEMED OK. CALLED DEALER AND REPORTED THE ISSUE. SETUP A TIME TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT WHEN THEY WERE GOING TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY DUE TO SHIFTING ISSUES THEY DIAGNOSED ON A PRIOR APPOINTMENT. WHEN I RECEIVED THE VEHICLE BACK AFTER THEY LOOKED AT IT AND REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY, THEY INDICATED THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND UPSETTING BECAUSE I SEE THERE WAS RECALL FOR THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE OF STALLING OUT. HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL BECAUSE IT DOES NOT FALL WITHIN THE PRODUCTION START AND ENDING DATE TIMEFRAME? SEEMS TO ME JEEP IS JUST TRYING TO SAVE MONEY AND GETTING AWAY WITH NOT REPAIR ADDITIONAL VEHICLES THAT ARE UNSAFE. THIS IS JUST WRONG.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A TOTAL LOSS OF ACCELERATION AND TRANSMISSION POWER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FELT AS IF IT WERE STUCK IN NEUTRAL GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO TETERBORO CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (469 US-46, LITTLE FERRY, NJ 07643 (201), 440-0222), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE ABS MODULE FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES SEIZED AND THERE WAS A TOTAL LOSS OF TRANSMISSION AND ACCELERATION POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE A CASE MANAGER WAS ASSIGNED. THE MANAGER HAD NOT CALLED THE CONTACT BACK AND THE CONTACT'S REQUEST WAS ESCALATED TO A SUPERVISOR. THE CONTACT REQUESTED THE VEHICLE BE RETURNED AND EXCHANGED. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER AND STATED THAT THE ANALYTICAL DEPARTMENT WOULD CALL THE CONTACT WITHIN 24 HOURS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 350. *TT CONSUMER STATED INCIDENT HAPPENED 3 TIMES. UPDATED 11/29/18*JB

THE CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING AT LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS. THE ENGINE WILL ATOP COMPLETELY AND THE CAR ROLLS BACK OR BEGINS TO DRIVE BACKWARDS WHEN IT'S RESTARTED. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN AS I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT 4 TIMES NOW DUE TO THE CAR STALKING IN ATOP AND GO TRAFFIC AND ANOTHER TIME WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS. ALSO, THE CAR APPEARS TO CHUG OR HESITATE TO CHANGE GEARS. IT'S IS SLOW TO PICK UP SPEED AND AT TIMES, IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THE RADIO FLUCTUATES IN VOLUME LEVEL CONSTANTLY REGARDLESS OF THE PROGRAMMING AND IT'S SO BAD THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN USE IT. I'M CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF, MY CHILDREN AND OTHERS AS WELL. CHRYSLER APPEARS TO HAVE NO CONCERNS. UNLESS SOMEONE DIES, I'M AFRAID THIS ISSUE WILL NOT BE RESOLVED.

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS MERGING INTO THE TURNING LANE IN BUSY TRAFFIC. AS I WAS APPLYING BRAKES AND COMING TO A LOW SPEED THE VOLTAGE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE JEEP COMPLETELY STALLED AND LOST ALL DRIVABILITY. NO OTHER LIGHTS OR ANYTHING WAS IN THE DASH JUST THE VOLTAGE. I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND MANAGED TO GET IT BACK STARTED BEFORE GETTING HIT IN A BUSY INTERSECTION.

BRAKES WERE STUCK ON AND ALSO THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY. CAR WOULD ONLY GO AROUND 30 MPH HAD TO PARK THE VEHICLE AND GET IT TOWED EVEN THOUGH THIS IS BRAND NEW!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, WHETHER IN FIRST OR SECOND GEAR, THE VEHICLE STEERED LEFT UNINTENTIONALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BLAKE FULENWIDER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM BEEVILLE (3000 N SAINT MARYS STREET, BEEVILLE, TX 78102, (361) 371-4126) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ALIGNMENT WAS OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 1,010. *TT CONSUMER STATED ALIGNMENT WAS DONE BUT STEERING STILL PULLS TO THE LEFT. UPDATED 11/29/18*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE BATTERY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED AND DROVE NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,900.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE TURNING ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RED RIVER DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP (1060 HEBER SPRINGS RD, HEBER SPRINGS, AR 72543, (501) 362-5831) AND THEY FOUND NO FAILURE WITH THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD WAIT UNTIL THEY HEARD BACK FROM THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 280.

I WAS AT A STOP WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN, WHEN I SAW AN OPENING TO TURN I ACCELERATED, TURNED THE WHEEL AND HAD JUST BARELY CLEARED THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHEN MY CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING AND MY ENGINE CUT ENTIRELY. I COASTED THROUGH THE REST OF THE TURN WITH NO POWER JUST BARELY AVOIDING BEING HIT. I LOOKED AT THE DASH AND SAW MY BATTERY LIGHT FLASHING AND MY INFO CENTER DISPLAYING THE MESSAGE YOU SEE WHEN YOU FIRST ENTER YOUR CAR "TO START ENGINE PUT FOOT ON BRAKE AND PRESS START BUTTON" (OR SOME VARIATION OF THIS PHRASE, I CAN'T QUOTE IT VERBATIM). IT HAD STALLED. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON, CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY IMMEDIATELY SENT SOMEONE TO PICK IT UP. I HAVE OWNED MY BRAND NEW CAR FOR 11 DAYS AND HAVE ONLY 700 MILES ON IT. THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR, CANNOT RECREATE THE SITUATION AND THERE IS NO APPARENT RECALL ON MY CAR'S YEAR. THERE IS, HOWEVER; A RECALL ON THE MODEL. FCA'S ADVANCED COMMUNICATION FOR RECALL U87 ON 8/16/18 DOES LIST MY MODEL YEAR AND THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENTATION FOR NHTSA'S 18V-524 DOES AS WELL. THE ACTUAL RECALL DOES NOT. I'M CONCERNED AS THIS RECALL DOCUMENTS AN ISSUE WITH THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) THAT "MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH A SUSPECT VOLTAGE REGULATOR CHIP ON THE ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT BOARD. IF THE PCM FAILS, THE CUSTOMER MAY EXPERIENCE A NO-START, A START-AND-IMMEDIATE STALL CONDITION, OR AN ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING". THAT IS AN EXACT QUOTE FROM THE FCA COMMUNICATION ON 8/16/18 WHICH LISTS MY

VEHICLE STALLS NO RE-START TRAVELING 80 MPH ON INTERSTATE. COMPLETE STALL DEAD STICK , NO DASH LIGHTS , NO POWER.!!! COAST TO STOP NO RE-START. DEAD

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON FOLLOWED BY THE ETC LIGHT THEN THE VEHICLE DIED WITHOUT ANY OTHER WARNING

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND ALL THE SUDDEN MY CAR JUST SHUT OFF. I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE AT ALL. THEN IT STARTED DRIVING BACKWARDS AS IT WAS IN DRIVE. I COULDN'T NOT GET IT TO GO INTO PARK AND IT TOOK A MINUTE OR 2 TO GET IT INTO PARK. THE. THE DASH TOLD ME TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND IT WOULDN'T TURN BACK ON AT FIRST. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME. THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING AND JUST ALL THE SUDDEN TURNED OFF. I WENT AND CHECKED THE OIL AFTER READING ABOUT THIS WITH OTHER CUSTOMERS AND I HAD NO OIL IN MY CAR.

PTU UNIT IS DEFECTIVE. DEALERSHIP HAS HAD MY VEHICLE FOR A WEEK, ONLY TO CALL ME TO TELL ME TO PICK UP VEHICLE AND BRING IT BACK TO THEM NEXT WEEK FOR A LEVEL 3 MASTER MECHANIC TO WORK ON IT. THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING ON MY DRIVEWAY WITH A 3 FOOT PUDDLE. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 3 MONTHS. I DON'T THINK IT'S SAFE TO DRIVE.

MY NEW CAR HAS 2,800 MILES DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE AT 5 MONTHS/5,000 MILES. THE ENGINE FAILED ONCE FOR NO KNOWN CAUSE AFTER 2 WEEKS IN THE REPAIR SHOP. NOW MY CAR DIED WHILE IN MOTION ON BUSY ROADS AND A HIGHWAY RAMP AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 15-40 MPH WITHOUT WARNING OR LIGHTS. THIS IS SLA SAFETY HAZARD AS THE STEERING GOES AND CAR JUST COMES TO A STOP WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I HAD IT TOWED AFTER IT'S 5TH TIME IN 4 DAYS STOPPING WHILE IN MOTION AND SHUTTING DOWN. JEEP TOLD ME IT'S EMPTY ON OIL BUT YET THE OIL LIGHT INDICATOR DOESN'T COME ON. THEY SAID IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITHOUT A FIX FOR ALL 2014-2019 JEEP CHEROKEES. THEY ARE AWARE BUT ARE NOT FIXING OR ADDRESSING THE OIL CONSUMPTION WITHOUT LIGHT ISSUE THAT PUTS DRIVERS IN MOTION AT RISK OF AN ACCIDENT OR LOSING THEIR LIFE. IF NO WARNING IS COMING ON THAT YOUR OIL IS EMPTY LONG BEFORE A DIE OIL CHANGE AND MY CAR CAN JUST DIE WHILE IN MOTION ALONG WITH OTHERS AS AGAIN THEY STATED IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE IS A ROAD HAZARD FOR ANYONE IN THESE CARS. MY CAR IS 3 MONTHS OLD AND I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING IT ON ANY ROADS FOR FEAR I WILL BE HIT BY ANOTHER DRIVER AS IT'S JUST LOSING POWER AND SHUTTING DOWN IN THE STREET IN MOTION. JEEP CANNOT FIX THIS BUT KNOWS ABOUT IT.

CAR SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE PROMPTS TO 'RESTART' WHILE THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING. BATTERY LIGHT FLASHES, VEHICLE MUST BE TURNED OFF, PUT IN PARK, AND RESTARTED. TAKES SEVERAL SECONDS FOR STARTER TO REINGAGE AND START THE ENGINE.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, SLOWED DOWN TO A STOP SIGN AND THE CAR WENT DEAD (NOT THE BUTTON PROBLEM), THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. I DRIFTED TO THE SIDE, PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTARTED, THEN WENT AGAIN. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I WAS TOO AFRAID TO DRIVE IT, IT HAD 3000 MILES ON IT, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS OUT OF OIL. THEY PUT OIL IN IT AND GAVE IT BACK TO ME. IT HAPPENED AGAIN, THIS TIME WITH OIL IN IT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY DROVE IT AND SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM AND GAVE IT BACK TO ME. THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE AND MAKING A TURN TO THE LEFT, AS I TURNED, MY CAR SHUT OFF. I HAD TO DRIFT TO THE SIDE, PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART. THEN IT TOOK OFF. I AM SO SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR. I IMMEDIATELY WENT HOME AND CALL JEEP. THEY OPENED A CLAIM, BUT I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP. MY DAUGHTER WAS WITH ME AND SINCE IT HAD ALSO HAPPENED TO HER, SHE IMMEDIATELY TOOK A PICTURE AT THE MOMENT IT SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS TURNING. I HAVE ATTACHED THE PICTURE. MY CAR ONLY HAS 10,000 MILES ON IT.

MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS SUV IS BRAND NEW, ONLY 250 MILES ON IT. I STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, BEGAN DRIVING AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND WOULD NOT START. SEVERAL ERROR MESSAGES CAME UP ON MY DISPLAY SUCH AS, SERVICE TRANSMISSION, SERVICE POWER STEERING, SERVICE PARKING BRAKE, SERVICE STABILITY CONTROL ETC. THE CAR NEVER RESTARTED AND HAD TO BE TOWED. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED IF THIS HAPPENED WHILE PULLING ON TO A BUSY ROAD. MY DEALER HAS HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 4 DAYS AND HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. *DT UPDATED 10/18/18*JB UPDATED 11/1/18 *DT CONSUMER STATED THE CAR HAS BEEN AT FOSS MOTORS IN EXETER NH SINCE 9/14, THEY HAVE UNABLE TO FIX IT. THEY HAVE REPLACED A FRAYED WIRE WHICH THEY BELIEVED FRIED THE POWER CONTROL MODULE CHIP. THIS HAS BEEN REPLACED ON 9/21/ AND I EXPECTED THE CAR BACK ON 9/24 BUT WHEN THEY BACKED IT OUT OF THE SERVICE BAY IT WASN'T RUNNING PROPERLY. THEY REACHED OUT TO SENIOR TECHNIANS ADVISED THEM TO REPLACE THE POWER CONTROL MODULE AGAIN AND THEY REPLACED SOME THROTTLE PART. THEY CALLED ON 10/8 TO SAY THERE WERE STILL PROBLEMS. AS OF TODAY,THEY HAVE AGREED TO BUY THE CAR BACK AND HAVE STARTED THAT PROCESS. CHRYSLER CORP IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS BECAUSE I REACHED OUT TO THEM TO HELP FACILITATE WHAT WAS GOING ON AND TO HELP GATHER INFORMATION. UPDATED 11/02/18 *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE BRAKES FAILED. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE DROVE FORWARD AND CRASHED INTO THE SIDE OF A SECOND VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER (ANTIOCH CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP, RAM, 105 IL ROUTE 173, ANTIOCH, IL) WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000.

I HAVE A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE WITH 2000 MILES ON IT. I AM LEASING IT BRAND NEW. I BOUGHT IT ON JULY 10. ON MONDAY, SEPT 10, I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND GOING ABOUT 45 MILES PER HOURS, SUDDENLY THE CAR WENT FROM 45 MPH TO 0 MPH IN A MATTER OF SECONDS, I LOSE CONTROL OF THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES AND IT STALLED...IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY STREET. IT W AS FRIGHTENING. I PUT IT IN PARK, TURNED IT OFF, TRIED STARTING IT AGAIN, TURNED IT OFF AGAIN, WAITED A FEW MINUTES, START IT AGAIN AND IT STARTED UP CALLED THE HUSBAND TO SEE IF I SHOULD TRY TO HEAD HOME IN IT OR CALL UBER. WE DECIDED I WAS CLOSE ENOUGH TO HOME TO TRY AGAIN. IT HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES ON THE WAY HOME. ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING TO BE DRIVING AND HAVE IT COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN MID DRIVE. I HAD A CAR GOING ABOUT 45 BEHIND ME SWERVE INTO ANOTHER LANE TO AVOID SMASHING INTO ME. THEY WILL NOT FIX IT BECAUSE THEY CANNOT SEE IT HAPPENED ON THEIR SYSTEM AND CAN'T DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I AM AFRAID SOMEONE WILL BE SERIOUSLY INJURED. I ALSO SEE THIS ALL OVER THE INTERNET WHEN I SEARCH 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE ENGINE STALL IN MOTION. SO, I HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR BACK AND DRIVE IT UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN.

I LEASED A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE ON MAY 23,2018. ON FOUR OCCASIONS SINCE THAT TIME, THE CAR'S BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR STALLS OUT. THE INCIDENTS HAVE HAPPENED WHILE IN MOTION WHEN SLOWING DOWN (LESS THAN 10 MILES PER HOUR) THE CAR WAS IN A JEEP DEALERSHIP FOR SEVERAL DAYS THIS MONTH, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY, SEPTEMBER 16TH. A REVIEW OF INTERNET SITES REVEALS OTHER CUSTOMERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH NO RESOLUTION FROM JEEP. I CONSIDER THIS PROBLEM TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE, AND CERTAINLY ONE THAT SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING WITH A NEW CAR.

TAKARA RECALL JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE A MONTH AGO AND IT'S HAS BEEN TURNING OFF ON FEW TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY. IT'S NOT AWHILE I'M AT THE STOP SIGN OR LIGHT, IT'S WHILE I'M ACTUALLY DRIVING. I HAD TO PRESS THE BUTTON AGAIN IN ORDER TO TURN BACK ON

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE IN MOTION-HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM ON INTERNET. JEEP LITERALLY JUST SHUTS OFF- ALL 2019 JEEP LATITUDES. BATTERY LIGHT GOES ON VERY DANGEROUS IN TRAFFIC.

WHILE DRIVING, ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART THE CAR. I WAS LUCKY IT DID NOT HAPPEN ON THE INTERSTATE, IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I HAVE SINCE READ THAT OTHER JEEP CHEROKEE DRIVERS HAVE HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE, SOME 3 INCIDENTS. I DO NOT WANT TO EXPERIENCE THIS 3 TIMES. YESTERDAY I TRADED CARS, BOUGHT A DIFFERENT ONE. I'M 77 YEARS OLD AND I'M TOO SCARED TO TAKE A CHANCE ON A CAR THAT DOES THAT.

CHECK ENGINE ,SERVICE THROTTLE MESSAGES COME ON LOSS OF THROTTLE WHEN DRIVING CITY SPEEDS

CAR STOPS MOVING WHILE IN MOTION. THE FIRST TIME (JULY 6, 2018), I WAS PULLING INTO A LOCAL PIZZA HUT FOR MY LUNCH BREAK AND AS I TURN INTO THE DIRVEWAY, THE CAR STOPS ACCELERATING AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON; WHEN PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL TO GET FURTHER INTO THE PARKING LOT, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. I HAD TO PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND TURRN THE VEHICLE OFF THEN BACK ON AGAIN IN ORDER TO GET IT TO MOVE WHILE PUSHING THE GAS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED TURNED ON FOR 1-2 DAYS AND I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT FAR. THEN IT MAGICALLY WENT OFF AS I WAS TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP (WHICH I LIVE APPROX. 1.5 HOURS FROM) TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. IT WAS AT THE SHOP FOR 2 DAYS. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND AN ISSUE WITH IT AND "RELEARNED" THE SYSTEM. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED (AUGUST 27, 2018), I WAS PULLING INTO MY LOCAL TACO BELL FOR MY LUNCH BREAK AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED AS BEFORE BUT INSTEAD OF MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON, MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. JUST AS THE FIRST TIME, WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE WHILE PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL DOWN, SO AGAIN I HAD TO TURN MY HAZARDS ON, PUT IT IN PARK, TURN IT OFF, THEN BACK ON AGAIN IN ORDER TO GET THE VEHICLE TO MOVE. THE BATTERY LIGHT DID NOT STAY ON. IT HAS NOW BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 3 DAYS AND I CAN PICK IT UP TOMORROW. THEY RAN A 4.5 HOUR TEST ON IT AND ALSO TEST DROVE IT SOME AND COULD NOT GET IT TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. AGAIN, THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING AT ALL WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND

VEHICLE BATTERY DIED WHILE DRIVING. HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. HAPPENS AT LOW SPEEDS. POWER STEERING IS TURNED OFF AND YOU MUST TURN CAR OFF AND TURN BACK ON. VERY DANERGOUS BECAUSE YOU CAN'T TURN YOUR STEERING WHEEL WHEN IT IS DYING SO EASILY COULD BE HIT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS LOW SPEEDS, THE ENGINE SEIZED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LENOIR CITY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1206 E BROADWAY ST, LENOIR CITY, TN 37772, 865-321-8418) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED IF THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND A FAILURE, THEN THEY COULD NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 3,000. *DT CONSUMER STATED OIL LEVEL WAS VERIFIED FULL BY SERVICE TECH AND CONSUMER, JEEP HAS 3200 MILES NOW IS STILL FULL OF THE FACTORY OIL AND HAS NEVER ANY ADDED OR BEEN CHANGED. UPDATED 10/10/18*JB

THE VEHICLE'S INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM STARTED TO INTENSLY MALFUNCTION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. MULTIPLE FUNCTIONS STARTED TO MALFUNCTION SIMULTANEOUSLY INCLUDING THE RADIO, AIR CONDITIONING, AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM WOULD ALSO RANDOMLY TURN OFF AND TURN BACK ON. AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF TO SEE IF THAT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE MULTIPLE MALFUNCTIONS.
