THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS CONFIRMED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 400.

THE CAR ALARM CONTINUES TO GO OFF ON ITS OWN. I HAVE ALREADY HAD A SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THE RADIO, PHONE PAIRING, ETC. HAVE TRIED TO SET THE ALARM REMOTELY BY PHONE, BY LOCKING VEHICLE FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND ALSO BY TOUCHING BUTTON ON DOOR HANDLE. NO MATTER HOW I LOCK THE VEHICLE THE SAME THING CONTINUES TO HAPPEN WITH THE ALARM GOING OFF. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED, IT WOULD ONLY DISBURSE AIR AT TEMPERATURES OF 130-150 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.

THE HEADLIGHTS RETAIN MOISTURE OR ICE ON THE INTERIOR AREAS FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME WHILE DRIVING AND PARKED. THIS DEFINITELY BLOCKS THE LIGHT TRANSMISSION THROUGH TO THE EXTERIOR FOR PROPER AND SAFE DRIVING VISION. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE THE NOVEMBER INCIDENT AND I HAVE REPORTED TO CHRYSLER AND THE DEALERSHIP, GANDRUD IN GREEN BAY WI, EVERY TIME AND DOCUMENTED EACH WITH PICTURES OF THE EXACT PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS PERFORMED THE SILLY TEST THAT CHRYSLER REQUIRES: HAVING THE VEHICLE SIT INDOORS HEATED FOR 20 MINUTES SO SEE IT THE WATER CLEARS. MINE DID NOT TOTALLY CLEAR AT ALL HOWEVER THE DEALER SAID IT WAS WITHIN THE "GUIDELINES" OF BEING OK BY CHRYSLER'S RULES. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I JUST PURCHASED A HIGHLY PRICED VEHICLE AND I SHOULD LEAVE IT SIT IN A HEATED GARAGE SO THE LIGHTS WORK! I DO BELIEVE CARS ARE MEANT TO BE DRIVEN ON THE ROAD IN THE DAY AND NIGHT. CHRYSLER CERTAINLY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE CUSTOMER WHO WORKS HARD TO PAY FOR THIS MACHINE THAT IS VERY FAULTY. I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED A JEEP AND AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS SAFETY ISSUE. IT MUST BE RESOLVED AND I WILL KEEP AT THIS UNTIL IT IS. I KNOW MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AS SEEN ON THE INTERNET. THE SECOND VISIBILITY ISSUE IS THE WIPERS AND THE WAY THE WINDSHIELD DEFROSTS. THE WIPERS ARE PLACED SO THAT THE ICE OR SNOW WHEN DRIVING STAYS FROZEN AND IS NOT HEATED TO DEFROST PROPERLY. I HAVE REPLACED THE WIPERS AFTER ONLY DRIVING FOR A FEW DAYS IN WINTER WEATHER! I COULD NOT SEE.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK TO SERVICE GARAGE. DIAGNOSED WITH CK DTC'S-P0302 #2 CYLINDER MISFIRE. SERVICE DEPARTMENT CLAIMS THEY ROAD TESTED -ISSUE CLEARED. I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE, DROVE APPROXIMATELY 5 MILES WITH SAME ISSUE. I CALLED DEALER, THEY SAID TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR A WEEK OR SO, AND SEE IF IT FIXES ITSELF. *TR

THE WAY THE STEERING WHEEL ON THE NEW JEEP IS DESIGNED, WHEN YOU GO TO MAKE A TURN, ITEMS ON YOUR SLEEVES (ZIPPERS, BUTTONS, OR BRACELETS) CAN GET WEDGED IN BETWEEN THE PAD THAT COVERS THE HORN AREA OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE WHEEL IT SELF. ONCE THIS HAPPENS, THE OBJECT GETS LODGED INTO PLACE AND YOU CANNOT REMOVE IT, AND YOU ALSO CANNOT PROPERLY STEER THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY RECOURSE IS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WORK THE ITEM LOOSE. LUCKILY THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED WHILE WE WERE TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS OR IT WOULD HAVE SURELY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THEY SAY A PICTURE IS WORTH A 1000 WORDS. I HAVE PHOTOS TO SUBMIT IF IT WOULD DEMONSTRATE THE ISSUE MORE CLEARLY. *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER SHUTTING VEHICLE DOWN FOR A COUPLE HRS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS OFF BUT HORN WOULD RANDOMLY GO OFF EVERY 15MINS. I HAD TO PULL THE FUSE TO STOP IT. I THEN NOTICED THE DASH WAS STAYING ON AND FLICKERING WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF. 2DAYS LATER BATTERY WAS DEAD. SO FAR CHRYSLER HAS AUTHORIZED A FLASH ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BOARD WHICH DID NOT WORK. THE PART NEEDED IS ON BACK ORDER AND WONT BE AVAILABLE FOR A MONTH. THEY REFUSE TO GIVE OUT AN ACCEPTABLE LOANER AND TOLD ME I CAN TAKE MY CHANCES AND DRIVE MY VEHICLE. *TR

I AM CURRENTLY LEASING A 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE - THE LEASE STARTED IN MAY 2013. SINCE DRIVING THE CAR OFF THE LOT I HAVE HAD CONSTANT PROBLEMS WITH THE RADIO/NAVIGATION/BLUETOOTH AND BACK-UP CAMERA - NONE OF THEM WORK 90% OF THE TIME. THE CAR OFTEN WONT TURN OFF EVEN AFTER TURNING IT OFF (IE RADIO WONT GO OFF HEADLIGHTS WONT TURN OFF). I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN TWICE FOR REPAIRS AND THE PROBLEMS ARE NO BETTER. I HAVE 2 OTHER FRIENDS WITH THE EXACT SAME CAR AND THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS. *TR

BOTTOM LINE: BATTERY WAS SITTING IN A POOL OF WATER 4 INCHES AWAY FROM THE NEG/POS BATTERY TERMINAL. POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL FIRE ? A NEWLY ACQUIRED 2014 JEEP LAREDO WITH LESS THAN 1000 DRIVEN MILES FROM THE DATE OF DELIVERY. WE WERE HEARING A WATER SLOSHING SOUND THAT WAS PROFOUND UPON STARTING FROM A DEAD STOP AND THEN COMING TO A STOP SIGN. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED FLUID WAS HEARD SLOSHING AROUND SIMILAR TO A COOLER OF ICE WATER. AFTER DOING AN INTERNET SEARCH THERE WERE SIMILAR PROBLEMS FOUND WITH THIS VEHICLE IN THE PAST. SINCE THIS WAS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AS I WANTED TO KNOW IF THIS WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. THE SERVICE DEALER OF COURSE SAID HE NEVER HEARD OF THIS AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. "I WILL NOT LEAVE UNTIL SOMEONE EITHER DRIVES THIS CAR OR LOOKS AT IT AND SAY IT IS SAFE". THE COUNTER GUY WAS ANNOYED AT MY REQUEST AND HE WENT AND GOT HIS CHIEF SERVICE MANAGER. TO MY SURPRISE THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID TO ME AS HE WAS WALKING FROM ACROSS THE SERVICE BAY THAT HE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. WE WALKED TO THE VEHICLE AND HE OPENED THE PASSENGER DOOR AND MOVED THE PASSENGER SEAT ALL THE WAY FORWARD. THEN HE OPENED THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR, TOOK OUT THE FLOOR MATS AND OPENED THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT THAT IS LOCATED "INSIDE" THE VEHICLE UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT. THERE WAS WATER POOLED AROUND THE BATTERY AND 4 INCHES FROM REACHING THE + AND - TERMINALS. THE SERVICE MANAGER WENT UNDER THE VEHICLE AND REMOVED THE PLASTIC PLUG TH

JANUARY 13, 2013 CHRYSLER GROUP LLC. CUSTOMER CENTER P.O. BOX 21-8004 AUBURN HILLS, MI 48321 RE: CASE# [XXX] TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN; BELOW, YOU WILL FIND A BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF MY PREVIOUS AND CURRENT ISSUES WITH MY NEW 2014 GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE; UPON IMMEDIATELY RECEIVING MY 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE, I NOTICED THAT MY VEHICLE DID NOT DRIVE SMOOTHLY AND I HAD TO PUSH HARD ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECAUSE MY RPMS AND MPH DROPPED VERY FAST AND I WAS IN TRAFFIC. AFTER MY CHEROKEE LOSS POWER AND I BEGAN TO DRIFT, AND AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, I STARTED MY SUV UP AGAIN AND I HAD NO INSTRUMENT PANEL. EVERYTHING WAS BLACK. THE PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE DETERIORATED TO A POINT WHERE A PROBLEM WAS EVIDENT. FREQUENTLY, NOT ALL THE TIME, THE VEHICLE WAS VERY SLUGGISH TO ACCELERATE AND OCCASIONALLY NOT RESPONDING TO THE GAS PEDAL, FOR APPROXIMATELY FIVE-TEN SECONDS AS THE RPM'S WENT DOWN. IT FELT AS THE THOUGH, I WAS FORCING THE GAS BY PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HARD. IT APPEAR THAT THE GAS WAS BLOCKED FROM FLOWING BECAUSE I HAD TO PRESS VERY HARD TO GET SOME GAS TO MY SUV OR THE VEHICLE WAS STUCK IN A LOW GEAR AND NOT UP-SHIFTING. MY SUV ONLY HAVE 893 MILES ON IT. I CALLED THE DEALER SPORT DURST AND THEY INFORMED ME TO CALL CHRYSLER TO REPORT THE ISSUE. THEY WERE VERY RUDE ESPECIALLY [XXX] THE GENERAL MANAGER. UNDER THE NORTH CAROLINA LAW, I AM REQUESTING A KNEW 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE WITH THE SAME OPTIONS AND OR REFUND OF MY DOWNPAYMENT. I JUST WOULD LIKE TO ADD THAT THE DEALERSHIP TH

I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE A SAFETY RECALL ON MY 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT A WEEK IN ADVANCE FOR A 2-HOUR REPAIR (AS STATED IN THE NHTSA NOTICE) AND, SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE DEALER, TO CHECK ON ANOTHER ISSUE I NOTICED ON THE ABNORMAL BEHAVIOR OF THE AIR SUSPENSION. HOWEVER, 5 DAYS LATER I AM STILL WITHOUT MY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. AMAZINGLY, I HAVE BEEN CALLING SINCE LAST SATURDAY AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TALK TO THE SERVICE MANAGER OR MY SERVICE TECH. THE TECH SPECIALIST DO NOT REPLAY TO MY MESSAGES.THE ONLY PERSON THAT DISCUSSES THE STATUS OF MY VEHICLE IS THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT RECEPTIONIST, WHICH TODAY STATED THAT THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER "EVALUATION". I HAVE SINCE REQUESTED THE RECEPTIONIST TO ONLY FOCUS THE REPAIR ON THE SAFETY RECALL. I HAVE REPEATED SEVERAL TIMES TO JUST HANDLE THE SAFETY RECALL. HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. I DON'T BELIEVE IT WAS NHTSA'S INTENTION TO BE WITHOUT MY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION FOR A WEEK. THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICE TALKS ABOUT HOURS AND MAYBE A LITTLE MORE, BUT 5 DAYS IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT STORY. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP OR GUIDANCE YOU CAN PROVIDE TO GET MY CAR BACK. I AM EVEN WILLING TO JUST COORDINATE WITH ANOTHER DEALER TO GET THE RECALL WORK PERFORMED AT ANOTHER TIME. I CAN'T BE WITHOUT MY VEHICLE ANYMORE. I TALK TO CHRYSLER AND THEY STATED THAT THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN HELP ME IS THE DEALER, BUT THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIVE. PLEASE HELP. THE DEALER INFORMATION IS AS FOLLOWS: FLAGSHIP DEALER

2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ACCELERATION PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER IMMEDIATELY NOTICED UPON RECEIPT OF THE VEHICLE, THAT IT DID NOT DRIVE SMOOTHLY AND LACKED POWER DURING ACCELERATION. HOWEVER, SHE FELT IT WAS DUE TO LACK OF FAMILIARITY WITH THE VEHICLE. THE PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE DETERIORATED TO A POINT WHERE A PROBLEM WAS EVIDENT. FREQUENTLY, NOT ALL THE TIME, THE VEHICLE WAS VERY SLUGGISH TO ACCELERATE AND OCCASIONALLY NOT RESPOND AT ALL FOR ABOUT TEN SECONDS AS THE RPM'S WENT UP. IT FELT AS THE THOUGH, SHE WAS FORCING THE GAS BY PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, BUT THE GAS WAS BLOCKED FROM FLOWING, OR THE VEHICLE WAS STUCK IN A LOW GEAR AND NOT UP-SHIFTING. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED, WITH ONLY 1,231 MILES. THE CONSUMER HAD TO RETURN TO THE DEALER, SEVERAL MORE TIMES, DUE TO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATING. *JB

THE SIDE MIRRORS COMPLETELY BLOCK MY VISION ON BOTH SIDES. WHEN PULLING UP TO A STOP SIGN I CANNOT SEE A VEHICLE OR PEDESTRIAN TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT WHEN IN LINE WITH THE MIRRORS. THE MIRRORS ARE TOO BIG. *TR

VEHICLES "CLUSTER" MEMORY FAILED CAUSING WIPERS TO MALFUNCTION AND RADIO TO LOSE MEMORY. VEHICLE OCCASIONALLY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE KEYFOB AND WILL SET OFF PANIC ALARM AND/OR WILL NOT DETECT KEYFOB, DISPLAYING WARNING WHICH STATES KEYFOB HAS LEFT THE VEHICLE. DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED "FLASHING" THE MEMORY BUT PROBLEM PERSISTS AND GOING BACK IN FOR SERVICE 1-3-14. UPON READING OTHER FORUMS I HAVE FOUND THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH OTHER GRAND CHEROKEES. *TR

I HAVE THE NEW ECODIESEL!!! YES THIS IS AN AWESOME VEHICLE BUT... AFTER FILING THE VEHICLE UP FOR THE FIRST TIME THE ISSUE WAS NOTICED WHILE PULLING THE FUEL NOZZLE FROM THE VEHICLES FUEL NECK. THE CAPLESS GREEN FUEL NECK CAME SEPARATED FROM THE VEHICLE. ONCE THE CAR WAS TURNED BACK ON THE DEF SERVICE WARNING COMES ON THE DASH. THIS IS WITH LESS THAN 300 MILES!!! *TR

EVERY INDICATOR ON MY DASH WAS ON AND MY SPEEDOMETER DIDN'T WORK. BROUGHT IT INTO [XXX] WHERE THE PROBLEM WAS NOT FIXED. IT WAS IN THE SHOP AGAIN 2 WEEKS LATER FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND ALSO TO SERVICE THE ABS SYSTEM. TODAY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE CAR IS SHIFTING HARD AND HESITATING, CLUNKING AS IT SWITCHES GEARS. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

SOON AFTER TAKING POSSESSION OF THIS VEHICLE (9/27/13) I NOTICED THAT NOW AND AGAIN (4/5 TIMES) THERE WOULD BE A HESITATION FROM THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WHEN SHIFTING TO THE NEXT HIGHER GEAR WHEN ACCELERATING TO HIGHWAY SPEED. IT WAS SO SUBTLE THAT I FILED IT UNDER "NOTHING IS PERFECT", BUT WOULD KEEP SCORE. DON'T BE MISLED BY THE LOW MILEAGE ABOVE. THAT IS MY NEW NORMAL. A HEAD AND NECK INJURY IN 2001 FOLLOWED BY A LONG OVERDUE DIAGNOSIS OF SEVERE PTSD BY THE VA LEFT ME PRACTICALLY A "HOUSE HERMIT" AND DRIVING ANYWHERE INVOLVING DISTANCE REQUIRES HIRING A DRIVER. THIS VEHICLE WAS NOTHING MORE THAN MY BEING ABLE TO HAVE ACCESS TO THE WOODS WITH A 911 BUTTON ATTACHED TO KEEP THE P/A IN CHECK. WHAT HAPPENED TO ME WAS THAT FROM A STOP SIGN I TURNED ONTO THE MAIN HIGHWAY AND WAS ACCELERATING TO 55 WHEN AT ABOUT 50 THE TRANSMISSION HUNG, THIS TIME IT WOULD NOT RELEASE TO THE NEXT GEAR, THE ENGINE BEGAN TO STRUGGLE UNTIL IT ALMOST STALLED. AS UNEXPECTEDLY AS IT HAD HUNG THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED, THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY RECOVERED ""WITH A ROAR"" AND OFF WE WENT. (EXTRA RPM'S, ? COMPUTER/FUEL PUMP SAW NO PROBLEM) I'M SURE THAT IN THOSE SECONDS MY SPEED DROPPED 20 MPH'S WITH NO "WARNING", SUCH AS BRAKE LIGHTS HAD SOMEONE BEEN BEHIND ME. HAD THIS OCCURRED ENTERING A BUSY BELT-WAY, INTERSTATE, ETC., YOU CAN IMAGINE THE POSSIBLE MAY-HEM. DID SOME RESEARCH, GOT AN APPOINTMENT FOR SERVICE AT THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD (AS EXPECTED FROM RESEARCH) THEIR COMPUTER SAW NO ABNORMALITIES AND S

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES FAILED WHILE WAS DRIVING 65 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 13V483000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM , ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL , SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) AND STATED THAT THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO SERVICE THE 2014 MODEL YEAR VEHICLES UNTIL JANUARY 2014 BECAUSE ONLY ONE RECALL REMEDY REPAIR WAS BEING PERFORMED PER DAY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 65 MPH. THE WIPERS CAME ON AND THE RADIO STOPPED. THIS HAPPENED ON THREE OTHER OCCASIONS. UPON EXITING THE FREEWAY AND UTILIZING THE BRAKES, THE ENTIRE VEHICLE ELECTRONICS FLASHED THEN THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND STALLED INTO BLACKNESS. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP THE VEHICLE AND RESTART. *TR

I PURCHASED A NEW 2014 GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED, AND HAVE HAD VIBRATION ISSUES SINCE I PURCHASED. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES, AND NOW HAVE A CASE OPEN WITH CHRYSLER TO FIX THE ISSUE. THE STEERING WHEEL AND SEATS SHAKE AT SPEEDS FROM 70-80. *TR

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 2 WEEKS THE POWER STEERING ASSIST STEERING FAILED WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER GIVES A "POWER STEERING WARNING" AND ALL HYDRAULIC ASSISTANCE FAILS. WITHIN A FEW MINUTES OF THIS HAPPENING, THE ENGINE ALSO GETS HOT. I LIVE N THE TEXAS HILL COUNTRY. THIS FAILURE RESULTS A LARGE INCREASE IN STEERING EFFORT ON THE LOCAL HILLY AND CURVED ROADS AND THE ABILITY TO TAKE EVASIVE MANEUVERS IF SOME OF THE MANY LOCAL WILD ANIMALS CROSS THE ROAD IN FRONT OF ME. IT ALSO AFFECTS THE ABILITY TO MANEUVER IN TRAFFIC UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS BROUGHT TO A STOP. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM DUE TO IT'S INTERMITTENT NATURE. SO FAR, THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD AIR SUSPENSION FAILURES, POWER STEERING FAILURES, AND " DUE NOT SHIFT TRANSMISSION" FAILURES AND HAS BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME AND OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME. I USE THIS VEHICLE FOR WORK RELATED TRAVEL THROUGHOUT MULTIPLE STATES SO IT GETS DRIVEN OFTEN. *TR

SHORTLY AFTER STARTING VEHICLE AND DRIVING AT APPROX 10 MPH, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. 30 SECONDS LATER CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING AND MISFIRE WAS FELT, CAR BEGAN TO SHUDDER. I PULLED OVER, TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, AGAIN FLASHING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND SHUDDERING. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DEALER, WHO ALSO FELT MISFIRE ON COLD START NEXT AM AND CODES CONFIRMED MISFIRES IN MULTIPLE CYLINDERS. DEALER INSPECTED ENGINE BUT FOUND NO ISSUES. NEXT DAY, CAR OPERATED NORMALLY. APPROXIMATELY 1-2 WEEKS LATER, ON STARTING VEHICLE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIT UP, WITH CHECK AIR BAG WARNING AND LIGHTS INDICATED ABS FAILURE AND ECS OFF. CAR DROVE, BUT I SUBSEQUENTLY REALIZED SPEEDOMETER DID NOT WORK, IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING TO DRIVE ON HIGHWAY WITHOUT KNOWING MY SPEED. AFTER RESTARTING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON, BUT VEHICLE FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. WAS GOING TO BRING BACK TO DEALER, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF AFTER ABOUT 6 DRIVES. THESE ISSUES ARE VERY WORRISOME AND I FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE EVERY TIME I START THE IGNITION. *TR

CONTINUOUSLY EXHIBITING PERSISTENT PROGRESSIVELY WORSENING LIFE-THREATENING TRANSMISSION AND ELECTRICAL FAILURES. TRANSMISSION STICKS IN LOW GEAR AND WILL NOT UPSHIFT, TRANSMISSION STALLS, PUSH GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND NOTHING HAPPENS, ALMOST HIT NUMEROUS TIMES, GEARS JERK, RPMS REV UP AND SPEED INCREASES WHEN APPLYING BRAKES, WILL NOT SLOW DOWN THEN BOUNCES TO A STOP, INTERIOR LIGHTS SHORT OUT, DOORS DO NOT LOCK, ELECTRONIC CHIRPING SOUND FROM ENGINE EVEN WHEN OFF, TOUCHSCREEN/RADIO/CLIMATE CONTROLS DO NOT WORK, TOTAL OF 45 DIFFERENT DEFECTS, CONTINUOUS SINCE DAY PURCHASED, SENT 2 WRITTEN NOTICES TO CHRYSLER, HAS BEEN 8 MONTHS AND NO ONE WILL HELP, INCREASINGLY FEARFUL FOR SAFETY. TOTAL OF 43 DAYS IN SHOP AND 14 ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR SAME SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECTS AND CONDITIONS. *TR

THE DRIVER PULLED THE AUTOMOBILE INTO A DRIVEWAY ON A DOWNHILL SLOPE. THE DRIVER SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF USING THE PUSH BUTTON START/STOP. THE DRIVER RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE 10 MINUTES LATER, WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT. THE DRIVER STARTED THE VEHICLE (FOOT ON BRAKE AS REQUIRED) USING PUSH BUTTON START/STOP. THE DRIVER ENGAGED THE TRANSMISSION INTO REVERSE USING THE SHIFTING LEVER (WITH FOOT STILL ON BRAKE AS IS REQUIRED BY THE BRAKE TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK (BTSI) SYSTEM). WHEN ENGAGED IN REVERSE, THE ENGINE REVVED TO A HIGH LEVEL, AND THE CAR TRAVELED IN REVERSE UP THE HILL (DRIVEWAY), THROUGH THE STREET, AND INTO A DITCH. SIDE AND FRONT AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. DRIVER BELIEVES THEY NEVER TOOK FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, AND THE BRAKING WAS NOT SUFFICIENT TO OVERCOME TORQUE OF THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION. VEHICLE DAMAGE INCLUDES AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, CABIN ROOF LINER DETACHMENT, THREE BENT WHEELS, MINOR DAMAGE TO MUFFLER, MINOR BODY DAMAGE. DEALER CHECKED ELECTRONICS/INSTRUMENT RECORDINGS AND NOTED NOTHING UNUSUAL APPEARING, AND HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS. *TR

PURCHASED A 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON OCT 27, 2013 AND DISCOVERED THE FORWARD COLLISION SYSTEM (FCW) IS NOT WORKING, THE DEALER ATTEMPTED TO FIX BUT FAILED. THEY GAVE ME ANOTHER 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON NOV 2, 2013, I REALIZED IT HAS THE SAME EXACT DEFECT, AND AGAIN, THE DEALER TRIED TO FIX BUT FAILED TO DO SO. TWO BRAND NEW VEHICLES HAVE THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE VIN NUMBERS: 1C4RJXXXXXX AND 1C4RJFCXXXXX I SPOKE WITH MANUFACTURER AND THEY TRIED TO CONVINCE ME THAT "SYSTEM AVAILABLE" MEANS "SYSTEM IS ON" WHICH DIRECTLY CONTRADICTS THE MANUAL PROVIDED BY THEM. THAT IN ADDITION TO THE SYSTEM NOT WORKING AT ALL. SPOKE WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS THAT HAVE THAT FUNCTION, THEY ALSO INDICATED THAT THEY HAVING TROUBLE GETTING THAT TO WORK AND THEY HAVING TROUBLE GETTING SUPPORT FROM JEEP. UPDATED 11/19/13*LJ *TR

WHEN VEHICLE REACHES OF 38 MPH AND ABOVE,MOST OF THE TIME A VIBRATION OCCURS. THE VIBRATION CAN BE FELT IN THE SEAT , THE FLOORBOARD AND STEERING WHEEL . ONCE AT 70 MPH THE VIBRATION CAN BE SEEN IN THE STEERING WHEEL.THIS 2014 GRAND CHEROKEE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND THE ISSUE NEVER RESOLVED. THEY SAID IT COULD A TRANSMISSION , BUT NOTHING WAS EVER DONE. WHEEL ALIGNMENT HAS ALSO BEEN A PROBLEM. *TR

MAIN LCD SCREEN THAT SHOWS THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE GOES BLACK AT RANDOM WHEN I AM DRIVING AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT TO COME BACK ON IS TO STOP AND TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND TURN IT BACK ON. I WAS STOPPED BY A POLICE OFFICER FOR SPEEDING BECAUSE I COULD NOT TELL HOW FAST I WAS GOING. I TOLD HIM ABOUT THE DISPLAY AND HE WAS GOING TO TOW THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE AN OPERATIONAL SPEEDOMETER. I HAVE TOLD CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS AND APPARENTLY IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THEY ARE WORKING ON IT!! THESE VEHICLES' SHOULD ALL BE TAKEN TO THE DEALERS AND PARKED AND NOT DRIVEN UNTIL THE DEFECT HAS BEEN CORRECTED AND CUSTOMERS SHOULD BE GIVEN RENTAL CARS. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES IN MY 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN MAY. IT HAS A TOTAL OF 1,000 MILES ON IT, BUT THE PROBLEMS STARTED WITH ONLY 10MILES. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IMMEDIATELY LIGHTS UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON. THE REARVIEW MIRRORS MOVE INTO DOWNWARD FACING POSITIONS WHILE IN PARK AND WHILE DRIVING. THIS ALONE IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. THE ABS BRAKES INTERMITTENTLY WORK AND FINALLY FAILED. THE ABS MODULE FAILED. THE BACKUP CAMERA WORKS INTERMITTENTLY AND THE BACKUP WARNING SYSTEM ALSO IS INTERMITTENTLY WORKING. MY CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP EVERY MONTH SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED IT AND IT HAS CURRENTLY BEEN THERE FOR THE LAST 2 WEEKS AWAITING AN ABS REPAIR. *TR

A COUPLE OF WEEKS AFTER GETTING MY 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HOME AFTER PATIENTLY WAITING 8 WEEKS FROM THE TIME I ORDERED IT TO PICK IT UP, I NOTICED THAT THE RADIO CHANNELS ALL HAD A SLIGHT STATIC IN THE BACK GROUND AND EVERY STATION WAS MAKING A POPPING NOISE EVERY FEW MINUTES. THE RADIO DOES NOT SOUND GOOD. AFTER TAKING IT IN FOR THE FOURTH TIME TO TRY AND REPAIR THIS PROBLEM, I WAS TOLD THAT CHRYSLER DOES NOT HAVE A REPAIR FOR THIS AT THIS TIME. ALONG WITH THE POOR SOUND OF THE RADIO, A COUPLE OF TIMES I HAVE GONE TO START THE VEHICLE AND ALL OF MY PRE SET SIRIUS STATIONS WERE GONE. THIS IS VERY UNACCEPTABLE TO ME TO PAY THIS MUCH FOR A VEHICLE THAT HAS A MAJOR FAULT AND CHRYSLER AND THE DEALERSHIP HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT MAKE ME PAY FOR RENTAL CARS WHILE THEY COULDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM OR GIVE ME ANY HOPE OF FIXING IT IN THE FUTURE. I WAS TOLD BY THE LAST DEALERSHIP THAT I TOOK IT TO THAT THE RADIO IS AS GOOD AS IT IS GOING TO GET. *TR

STARTED 2014 JEEP GC AND CENTRE EVIC SCREEN FAILED TO TURN ON. CONTACTED CHRYSLER 1-800 NUMBER AND THEY HAD NO RECORD OF KNOWN ISSUES. SEARCHED INTERNET AND APPARENTLY THERE ARE KNOWN ISSUES. WENT TO JEEP DEALER AND THEY 'HAD NO IDEA' ... HAVE ONLY HAD VEHICLE 2 WEEKS ! HAVE BOOKED IN VEHICLE WITH DEALERSHIP. SO MUCH DEPENDS IN HAVING THAT RADIO/CONTROL UNIT FUNCTIONING. *TR

I'VE OWNED MY '14 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED FOR FOUR MONTHS. IT HAS NOW BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP TWICE FOR THE SAME ISSUE. I TURN ON THE JEEP AND ALL OF THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS GO ON, INCLUDING THE ABS, EMERGENCY BRAKE, TRACTION CONTROL, AIRBAG ETC. THE SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK AND STILL ALLOWS ME TO DRIVE. THE INITIAL CYCLE TELLS ME TO SERVICE THE ABS AND AIRBAGS. THE REAR PARKING SENSOR ALSO DOES NOT FUNCTION. I WAS TOLD THE ABS MODULE WAS FAULTY THE FIRST TIME AND THEY REPLACED IT WITH A NEW ONE. AGAIN, I AM BEING TOLD THAT THE ABS MODULE IS FAULTY. I HAVE A FEELING JEEP HAS NO CLUE WHAT THE REAL ISSUE IS. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY CONCERN. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING MY FAMILY IN THIS VEHICLE AS I DO NOT KNOW IF THE SAFETY CONTROLS ARE WORKING PROPERLY. *TR

I JUST PURCHASED A BRAND NEW VEHICLE ON 9/27/13. ON 9/28/13 MY VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE. I FIRST NOTICED IT WHEN I ARRIVED HOME, SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK. I OPENED THE HOOD AND NOTICED FIRE COMING FROM THE SIDE OF THE ENGINE. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED BECAUSE THE PARTS NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNDER 3,000.

WITH VEHICLE IN PARK, WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE, PUSHING BUTTON TO EITHER TURN THE VEHICLE ON OR OFF CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO LUNGE FORWARD. INTERMITTENT OCCURENCES, UNABLE TO REPRODUCE FOR THE MECHANIC. HAS HAPPENED WITH THIS VEHICLE 6 TIMES OVER AN 8 WEEK PERIOD.

IN FEB. 2013 I PURCHASED A 2013 GRAND JEEP TRAIL HAWK EDITION, IN SPAN OF 3 TO 4 MONTHS THE JEEP WAS IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT 6 TIMES TRYING TO FIX ISSUES. JEEP WAS UNABLE TO COMPLETELY FIX THE PROBLEMS TO MY SATISFACTION, I WAS GIVEN INCENTIVE TO TRADE IN FOR A 2014 GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED EDITION, WHICH WAS RUNNING GREAT UNTIL THIS PAST THURSDAY. ON THURSDAY I STARTED MY JEEP IT BARELY WOULD IDLE, I PROCEEDED TO GET ON THE INTERSTATE WHICH IS WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTED JUMPING UP AND DOWN LIKE I WAS GOING OFF ROAD. IT WOULD SUDDENLY CHANGE TO NEUTRAL WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING, IT KEPT MISSING GEARS AND BARELY RUNNING. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO GET OFF THE EXIT. WHEN I GOT OFF THE EXIT IT WOULD BARELY IDLE AND AGAIN SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING. EVENTUALLY I SAFELY MADE IT OFF THE EXIT AND INTO A PARKING LOT WHERE I GOT IT TOWED. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER COULD BARELY PULL IT UP ON THE TRAILER. WHEN IT WAS PLACED ON THE TRAILER IT WOULDN'T STAY IN PARK, IT KEPT TRYING TO SHIFT OUT OF GEAR. THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME TYPE OF INVESTIGATION IN THE GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE MODELS AND HOW THEY ARE PASSING INSPECTIONS THROUGH PRODUCTION LINE BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY FOR A CONSUMER TO GET TWO DEFECTIVE VEHICLES IN 7 MONTHS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND UNBELIEVABLE.

I STARTED MY CAR AND THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WOULD NOT DISPLAY ON THE SCREEN. I COULD PUT THE CAR IN GEAR AND DRIVE IT, BUT THERE WAS NO SPEEDOMETER ETC. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED FOR ABOUT AN HOUR, WHEN THE DISPLAY SUDDENLY BEGAN TO WORK.
