2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee complaints

Stops and needs to be put in park to restart, was determined not related to start stop or batteries . Jeep still in shop part not available for undetermined length of time

I was driving around 75mph on the interstate for about an hour (not using cruise control) when all of a sudden the accelerator no longer worked. There was no warning, no error lights or codes or anything. I tested the brakes and they still worked. I was able to coast to a stop on the breakdown lane. I waited about 20 seconds and restarted the car and everything worked again. This is my son's car that I was driving and it's really concerning because I thought I bought a safe car for him. I'm an experienced driver, but either way it's extremely dangerous. I looked information up about this issue and I guess it's been happening quite a bit according to the internet. Someone mentioned that the 4 PCM torx head t15 mounting screws that hold the PCM faceplate to the protective metal case where the circuit board is housed are too long. (Not the 3 bolts that hold the PCM to the mounting bracket) When there was a vibration or shift, the screws touched the circuit board shorting everything out and causing the engine to stall. The owner put washers with the 4 little t15 screws and were able to fix the problem. I think there needs to be a recall. I'm afraid to drive the car myself or have my son drive it. I'm taking it to the dealer, but I don't think they'll be able to recreate the situation.

VEHICLE STALLING AND JUMPING WHEN SWITCHING GEARS

THE SCREEN THAT DISPLAYS RADIO AND NAVIGATION AND REAR BACKUP CAMERA FREEZES UP AND CAMERA WILL NOT DISPLAY. THE SYSTEM DOES THIS INTERMITTENTLY AND WILL POWER ITSELF OFF AND ON. SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT REBOOT UNLESS I STOP, PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, TURN OFF THE ENGINE, RESTART THE ENGINE AND TAKE VEHICLE OUT OF PARK. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING AND UNSAFE TO FREEZE UP AND LOSE THE DISPLAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN I'M DRIVING IN TOWN AND ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALSO WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE DECEMBER 2020. THE RADIO MODULE HAS BEEN REPLACED ONCE. THE SECURITY GATEWAY MODULE HAS BEEN REPLACED BUT NOTHING HAS HELPED. I'VE TAKEN IN BACK 4 TIMES SINCE JANUARY 2021 FOR THE SAME ISSUES.

I WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC WITH THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED TO GREEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE DRIVE (D) INDICATOR LIGHT BEGAN BLINKING. AT THE SAME TIME, THE ENGINE WOULD REV BUT WOULD NOT GO FORWARD. THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME NEARLY RAN IN INTO THE BACK OF US. I HAD TO SWITCH FROM DRIVE TO PARK, BACK TO DRIVE TO MOVE FORWARD.

THE DISPLAY/ELECTRONIC SYSTEM APPEARED TO BE HIJACKED DURING MY COMMUTE TO WORK. THE HACKER BEGAN BY CHANGING THE RADIO FROM SIRIUS XM TO AN AM STATION, THEN BEGAN CHANGING SETTINGS (CLIMATE CONTROL OF SEATS), VIEWED CONNECTED DEVICES (USB, MEDIA ETC.), THEN SWITCHED TO VIEW THE REAR VIEW CAMERA, VIEWED THE COMPASS, VIEWED PHONE SETTINGS AND DIALED THE LAST NUMBER DIALED FROM MY PHONE. THE HACKER KEPT GOING BACK TO SETTINGS, REAR VIEW CAMERA, RADIO AND CLIMATE CONTROL. THIS ALL HAPPENED IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME AND CONTINUED EVEN AFTER I HAD STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND TURNED MY CELL PHONE OFF. I LEFT MY PHONE OFF UNTIL I ARRIVED AT WORK AND THE HACKER WAS STILL MESSING WITH SETTINGS AND RADIO. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND OPENED THE DOOR TO DROP THE DISPLAY AND ALL ELECTRONIC AUXILIARY POWER.

MY VEHICLE (2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE) WAS ONLY 1 1/2 YEARS OLD AND WAS INVOLVED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45MPH WHEN I WAS STRUCK BY 4-DOOR CHEVY SILVERADO (DRIVER-TO-DRIVER COLLISION) THAT WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ON GREEN, SO ONLY GOING ABOUT 3-5MPH. THE TRUCK'S STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG DEPLOYED, BUT NONE OF MY JEEP'S DID. MY JEEP'S ENTIRE FRONT AREA WAS CRUSHED, AND DRIVER'S SIDE EXPERIENCED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE AS WELL; RESULTING IN MY JEEP BEING TOTALED. EVERYONE AT THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS SHOCKED THAT MY JEEP'S AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. AS A RESULT, I BUSTED MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL, AND 6 WEEKS LATER, I STILL HAVE A KNOT ON MY FOREHEAD. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A GRAND CHEROKEE AGAIN! I AM COMPLETELY AMAZED THERE ARE ZERO RECALLS!

I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JAN. 2018 BRAND NEW. FOR THE FIRST YEAR OR SO I HAD NO PROBLEMS. AS OF JULY 2020 IT HAS STALLED ON ME FOR 5 TIMES. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY (60-70MPH). THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD START BLINKING AND IT SAYS "SHIFT TO P TO START". IT DECELERATES VERY QUICKLY LUCKILY I'VE BEEN ABLE TO MERGE TO THE EMERGENCY LANE ON THE HIGHWAY BUT THIS LAST TIME (1/17/21) IT WAS VERY SCARY AS CARS WERE SWERVING IN ORDER TO AVOID HITTING ME. I'M UNABLE TO ACCELERATE SO THERE'S CARS GOING 60-80MPH FLYING PAST ME. ONCE I GET TO THE EMERGENCY LANE AND DOWN TO 5-7MPH THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPS (HARD STOP). I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALER EVERY TIME AND EVERY TIME THEY CAN'T "DUPLICATE" MY COMPLAINT, THERE FOR NOTHING CAN BE DONE.CAN SOMEONE PLEASE FIX THIS AS I STILL HAVE 1 YEAR LEFT ON THIS CAR! IF NOT- IM TRADING IT IN & NO LONGER BUYING JEEPS. I HAVE THE DEALER INVOICE FOR ALL VISITS IF ANYONE NEEDS THEM.

MULTIPLE ISSUES: 1) LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING. HAD TO COME TO A FULL STOP WHILE IN TRAFFIC AND RESTART THE CAR. 2) DOORS WOULDN'T LOCK ANY MORE. 3) BATTERY DRAINED WITHIN 24HRS AND REQUIRED JUMP START. DIAGNOSIS: FAULTY TIPM, CURRENTLY BEING REPLACED. CAN PROVIDE FULL DOCUMENTATION IF REQUESTED.

THE AC DOES NOT STAY COLD. IT CYCLES FROM COLD TO LIKE WARM AND HUMID SEVERAL TIMES PER MINUTE. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. THEY HAVE DRAINED AND RECHARGED THE AC TO NO AVAIL. THEY HAVE TOLD ME OTHER CUSTOMERS COMPLAIN OF THE SAME THING IN THE 2019S. IT HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT NO FIX HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED FOR.

IN JUNE OF 2019, I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW. ABOUT THE 3,414 MILE MARK, I HAD MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, ALL OF THE WARNING MESSAGES STARTED FLASHING ACROSS MY DASHBOARD. THE CAR BECAME SLUGGISH AND FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STOP RUNNING. THIS ALL HAPPENED WHEN I WAS IN TRAFFIC MOVING FORWARD. I FELT UNSAFE. IT WENT TO THE DEALER. IF MY MEMORY SERVES ME RIGHT, THEY FOUND ABOUT 75 CODES HAD BEEN ACTIVATED BY THE COMPUTER. THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR AND GAVE IT BACK TO ME. ON MY WAY HOME, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. ALL THE WARNING MESSAGES FLASHED ACROSS THE DASHBOARD SCREEN WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR WAS SLUGGISH AND I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO DIE. IT WENT BACK TO THE SHOP AND THEY KEPT IT FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS. COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM WITH IT. FINALLY GOT IT BACK AND I WAS ENSURED IT WAS REPAIRED. ABOUT A WEEK AGO, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THE 11,000 MILE MARK. THE EXACT SAME SCENARIO AS BEFORE. BUT THE CAR STOPPED MOVING ON TWO OCCASIONS WHEN I WAS IN REVERSE AND IN TRAFFIC STOPPED WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. THE CAR REMAINED RUNNING BUT WOULD NOT CONTINUE IN REVERSE OR GO FORWARD. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK BOTH TIMES, MESSAGES FLASHED ACROSS THE SCREEN AND SEEMED TO RESET THE SYSTEM. I THEN COULD CONTINUE GOING WITH THE CAR. I DEFINITELY FELT UNSAFE WHEN THIS HAPPENED. AGAIN, THEY CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A TWO PAGE PRINTOUT SHOWING ALL THE WARNING CODES THAT HAD GONE OFF. AS I WRITE THIS, THE CAR IS IN THE SHOP. IVE BEEN TOLD

I NOTICED THAT WHEN IT RAINS WATER LEAK IN MY TRUCK ON THE DRIVER SIDE FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL. I HAS SOAKED THE CARPET AND MAT SEVERAL TIME AND ALSO CAUSED MEWDOW PROBLEMS THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME IN SUMTER SC AT MY HOME

MY 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE WILL INTERMITTENTLY NOT START. I WILL PUSH THE BUTTON AND IT REVS UP BUT DOES NOT TURN OVER. THIS LASTS FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND THEN WILL START. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT ONCE A WEEK. THE CAR ALSO STALLED UNDERWAY TWICE THIS PAST SUMMER. QUIRK JEEP IN BRAINTREE MA TELLS ME NOTHING IS WRONG WHEN I HAVE VIDEO EVIDENCE. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE AND IS LIKE NEW. IT CURRENTLY HAS ONLY 8500 MILES ON IT. VERY FRUSTRATING WHEN I PAID A LOT FOR THE CAR.

RECENTLY SUBMITTED A CLAIM. HAD TO TOW TO MY DEALERSHIP AND WAS JUST NOTIFIED THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS ALSO MALFUNCTIONING. I HAVE NOTIFIED MY DEALER IF THESE EXACT RECALLS AT THIS WEBSITE FOR THIS MAKE AND MODEL AND THEY ARE TELLING ME IT DOES NOT APPLY TO MY VEHICLE. BIZARRE. PLEASE HELP. I'VE ONLY HAD THIS CAR 8 MONTHS.

MY CAR HAS STALLED TWICE IN THE LAST 3 DAYS AND HAS ALSO NO TURNED ON SO WE NEEDED A JUMP 1 DAY AGO. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT WITH ONLY 65 MILES ON IT. ALSO THERE'S AN 'A!' SYMBOL SHOWING ON THE DASH NOW.

THIS VEHICLE WAS HIT BY A SILVERADO EXTENDED CAB PICKUP AT A 4 WAY STOP TWICE BY THE SAME TRUCK. THE IMPACT RESULTED IN THE JEEP BEING A TOTAL LOSS WITH EXTENSIVE DAMAGE FRONT AND REAR. THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED RESULTING IN INJURIES TO BOTH THE DRIVER AND MORE SERIOUS THE PASSENGER. THE JEEP WAS ACCELERATING FROM A DEAD STOP TO CROSS THE INTERSECTION. THE TRUCK DID NOT STOP OR SLOW DOWN AT THE INTERSECTION.*DT*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO IMMEDIATELY SHIFT INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE. IN ADDITION, THE DASHBOARD COMPUTER MALFUNCTIONED. AFTER THE COMPUTER SELF RESET, THE VEHICLE WOULD SUDDENLY ACCELERATE. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE ENGINE REVVED UP AND THE VEHICLE WOULD ABRUPTLY ACCELERATE FORWARD OR IN REVERSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER JIM SHORKEY NORTH HILLS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 7670 MCKNIGHT RD, PITTSBURGH, PA 15237 WHO WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,700.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A ROAD, AT 30MPH, IT ALL OF A SUDDEN STALLED OUT. POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING, ENGINE WAS DEAD, IT SAID ON DASH TO "SHIFT INTO PARK". I MANAGED TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT. PUT IT IN PARK. TURNED IT OFF, THEN ATTEMPTED TO RESTART, IT WOULDN'T START (SOUNDED LIKE ENGINE TRYING, THEN NOT TURNING OVER. I THEN TURNED IT OFF AGAIN, AND TRIED, AND IT TURNED ON. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME, BUT A CAR SHOULDN'T STALL WHILE DRIVING AT 30MPH DOWN A ROAD.

SO FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE, IT WILL 'SPIT' WHEN IT'S IN GEAR. LIKE I'LL PUSH ON THE GAS AND IT WILL GO BUT SOMETIMES IT WILL STALL AND THEN GO AGAIN. IT STOPPED DOING THAT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS BUT TODAY I WAS REVERSING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND IT SAID 'SHIFT TO P BEFORE PUTTING IN GEAR' (KEEP IN MIND THE CAR WAS IN REVERSE). AND THE CAR WAS 'SPITTING' AS I WAS IN REVERSE. I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE IT WAS COMPLETELY IN THE REVERSE GEAR AND IT WAS. SO I PUT IT IN PARK AND THEN REVERSE AND IT WAS FINE AFTER THAT. BUT I SAW THIS POST ON FACEBOOK NOT LONG AGO, A WOMEN HAD I BELIEVE A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE, SHE WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND HER CAR POPPED UP A NOTIFICATION 'SHIFT TO P'. RIGHT AFTER THAT HER CAR AUTOMATICALLY STOPPED AND SHE WRECKED. MY CAR SAID THE SAME THING TO ME THIS MORNING WHILE I WAS IN REVERSE. THERE IS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AS OF NOW, AND I AM SCARED FOR MINE AND MY FAMILIES SAFETY. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS.

VEHICLE TRANSMISSION IS VERY SPOTTY .. IT JERKS AND HARD TO GET FROM ONE GEAR TO THE NEXT. THERE'S A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THIS OCCURS EVERYDAY

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN ALL SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND THE CAR BEGAN TO POWER DOWN. I ALMOST CRASHED INTO A 18 WHEELER BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN PROPERLY. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE, SWITCH GEARS, STOP OR START. MY VEHICLE WAS SERVICED BY JEEP TWICE IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS.

SERVICE SHIFTER WILL RANDOMLY COME ON RIGHT AFTER VEHICLE IS STARTED OR STARTS BEEPING WHEN DRIVING BUT THEN CLEARS ITSELF AND I CHECK ON DASH FOR STORED MESSAGES IT DISAPPEARS. ONLY ONCE HAS VEHICLE NOT COME OUT OF PARK AFTER BEING STARTED AND ALL SHIFTER LIGHTS WERE ON WHEN IT WOULDN'T COME OUT OF PARK SHUT VEHICLE OFF AND TURNED BACK ON AND WAS FINE BUT SERVICE SHIFT STILL COMES ON RANDOMLY. THE PHOTO I ATTACHED IS NOT FROM TODAY 9/8/20

I WAS DRIVING HOME AND THE JEEP SWITCHED TO NEUTRAL ON ITS OWN AND FLASHED "SHIFT TO PARK" ON THE SCREEN. I HAD TO ROLL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PUT IT IN PARK AND TURN IT OFF. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT. I HAVE KIDS. IF THIS HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY WE WILL BE HURT.

VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING 3 SEPARATE TIMES. THE LAST TIME WAS DOING 65 DOWN A TEXAS HIGHWAY. SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER TO THE ENGINE. ON PRESSING THE THE MOTOR REVVED UP BUT THERE WAS NO TRANSMISSION ENGAGEMENT EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN DRIVE. WAS FORCED TO PULL OVER TO SHIFT INTO PARK TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. ALL THREE TIMES THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND THE AUTOMATIC VEHICLE SHUTOFF FEATURE WAS DISABLED. I HAD IT IN TO THE DEALER AFTER THE FIRST TWO TIMES, THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO REPRODUCE IT SO THEY GAVE IT BACK HAVING DRIVEN IT 100 MILES AND TAKEN A QUARTER TANK OF GAS DOING SO. I HAVEN'T DRIVEN THE VEHICLE MUCH DUE TO THE PANDEMIC BUT YESTERDAY THE THIRD OCCURENCE HAPPENED IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE AND WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED AT 65 MPH DUE TO THIS FAILURE.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILED WITH NO PRIOR INDICATION OF A PROBLEM. THIS MADE THE VECHILE VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AT LOW SPEED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A FAILED ELECTRIC POWER STEERING PUMP. THE REPAIR REQUIRES REPLACEMENT OF A COMPLETE RACK AN PINION SYSTEM AS THE PUMP IS A INTEGRATED PART. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 15,000 MILES.

THE LOWER LEATHER DRIVER'S SEAT HAS LOST IT'S BOLSTERING WITHIN ONE YEAR OF PURCHASE. THIS CAUSES THE DRIVER TO LOOSE LOWER SEAT SUPPORT WHICH ALLOWS THE SEATED DRIVER TO LEAN AGAINST THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING.

WHEN WE PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE THE BACK UP CAMERA COMES ON BUT ONCE WE PUT IT INTO DRIVE THE BACK UP CAMERA STAYS ON FOR QUITE SOMETIME... DEALERSHIP IN CARSON CITY NV COULD NOT DUPLICATE IT SO WE ARE STUCK

DRIVING MY CAR AROUND A CURVE WHEN THE WHEEL LOCKED UP ON ME AND STARTED TURNING IN THE OTHER DIRECTION AND INTO OPPOSING TRAFFIC

THE JEEP MAKES A LOUD POPPING NOISE WHEN PLACING IT INTO ANY GEAR AND YOU CAN FEEL A PUSH FORWARD. I TOOK THE JEEP INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO CHECK OUT THE PROBLEM. FIRST THEY SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE IT HAPPEN TO THEM AND I NEEDED ME TO COME IN AND SHOW THEM. WHEN I GOT THERE AND SHOWED THEM AND THE MECHANIC FIRST THOUGHT IT COULD BE SOMETHING AND PUT IT UP TO LOOK AT IT AGAIN. HE MADE IT REPEAT THE POPPING AND LURCHING MOVEMENT MULTIPLE TIMES THEN CAME BACK AND SAID ALL JEEPS DO THIS AND IT IS NORMAL. BUT NOW IT IS WORSE AND IT IS ALSO POPPING AND LURCHING WHILE SLOWING DOWN AND SPEEDING UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE RESIDENCE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PLACE THE GEAR SHIFTER IN PARK, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO ENGAGE. THE STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARDS AND THE PARKING BRAKE WAS ACTIVATED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. AFTER A WHILE, THE VEHICLE LOSS POWER AND TURNED OFF. THE FOLLOWING DAY AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE OUT OF GEAR HOWEVER, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO ENGAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO TRANSITOWNE JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE RAM OF WEST SENECA (2989 TRANSIT RD, ELMA, NY 14059) TO BE DIAGNOSED HOWEVER, THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS STILL PENDING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH A CASE NUMBER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 13,787.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND THE CAR SHUT DOWN AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED IN PLACE. A FLASHING MESSAGE CAME ON TO RESTART MY CAR. LUCKILY I WAS ON AN EMPTY ROAD AND NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME.

ENGINE SHUTDOWN WHILE DRIVING. HAS SHUT DOWN MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE MOVING DOWN THE ROAD. ENGINE SHUTS OFF, PRESSING GAS WILL REV THE ENGINE BUT THERE WILL BE NO TRANSMISSION POWER EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE IS STILL IN DRIVE. HAVE TO PULL OVER AND SHIFT INTO PARK AND RESTART. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! *TR

WHEN USING THE VIEW SCREEN FOR NAVIGATION I CONTINUE TO GET WEATHER ALERTS FOR LOCATIONS THAT 100S MILES AWAY FROM ME. WHICH MAKE ME LOOK DOWN AT THE SCREEN TO TOUCH THE OK BUTTON TO GET BACK TO THE NAVIGATION. THE FEATURE TO TURN OFF WEATHER ALERTS IS NOT PROGRAMMED INTO THE HEAD UNIT, WHICH SENDS OUT NON RELATED WEATHER ALERTS CONSTANTLY DURING MY DRIVING. AGAIN, FORCING ME TO LOOK DOWN AT THE SCREEN TO TOUCH OK! VERY DANGEROUS TO BE OPERATING THE SCREEN HEAD UNIT WHILE DRIVING. EVERY FEW MINUTES! VEHICLE IN MOTION. *TR

UCONNECT ON STEREO SYSTEM FREEZES UP. WHEN IT DOES THIS THE TEMPERATURE CONTROLS, PHONE, RADIO, NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND EVERYTHING IT CONTROLS STOPS WORKING. THE VEHICLE CAN BE STATIONARY OR MOVING AND IT JUST STOPS WORKING, HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN VEHICLE OFF AND WAIT FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES FOR IT TO COME BACK ON. *TR

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ON A THE 3 LANE ROAD FULL OF TRAFFIC VEHICLE SUDDENLY CLUNKED LOUDLY AND VIOLENTLY SHIFTED FROM HIGH GEAR POSSIBLY FIFTH OR SIXTH INTO FIRST GEAR WITH THE RPMS AT OVER 7000 THIS CAUSED ME AND MY FAMILY TO LUNGE FORWARD AT WHICH TIME I MOMENTARILY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO GAIN CONTROL AND STEER THE CAR TOWARDS THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HAD TO SLAM THE SHIFTER INTO PARK IN ORDER TO STOP. WHILE STOPPED THE VEHICLE REMAINED AT 7000 RPMS UNTIL I PUSHED THE OFF BUTTON OF THE CONSOLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY SHIFTED INTO PARK WITH THE PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BAY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (636 15TH ST, PANAMA CITY, FL 32401) TO BE DIAGNOSED WHICH WAS STILL PENDING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,000. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED.

HELLO. I HAVE FOUND MANY ISSUES WITH MY UCONNECT SYSTEM AND WHAT APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED (HACKED). I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO JEEP AND THE SIRIUS/CM SYSTEM. 1 OCCASION MY SOS/ASSIST FEATURE WAS DEACTIVATED WHILE I WAS IN THE CAR. ANOTHER TIME LIGHT CHANGED FROM RED TO GREEN ON ANOTHER OCCASION WITHOUT TOUCHING IT. 2 SYSTEM WAS RESET AND SHOWING PHONES BEING CONNECTED THAT HAD BEEN TOTALLY REMOVED FROM UCONNECT SYSTEM. 3 ON MORE THEN ONE OCCASION MY UCONNECT LINKS/APPS WERE NOT LOADED... TOTALLY DISAPPEARED AFTER BEING THERE AND CAR WAS ON FOR MORE THEN AN HOUR. 4 SETTINGS BUTTON/ OPTION TO ADJUST IMPORTANT INFORMATION SOMETIMES NOT ON SCREEN. 5 MAP NAVIGATION GIVING MISDIRECTION AND HAD ME DRIVING IN CIRCLES BACK TO MY STARTING POINT. 6 SCREEN FREEZING AND NOT ALLOWING ME TO DISCONNECT PHONE/CHANGE SCREENS...ALSO HAD ISSUES WHERE MY SCREENS WOULD JUMP FROM ONE THING TO THE NEXT WITHOUT TOUCHING ANYTHING. DO NOT KNOW IF MY UCONNECT WAS ACCESSED DURING THE TIME PERIOD MY PHONE WAS HACKED INTO AND I HOOKED IT UP THROUGH CARPLAY OR IF A "LOCK LINK " WAS USED. I'VE DONE MY RESEARCH BECAUSE I THOUGHT ALL THESE WERE ODD AND IT IS NOT UNCOMMON FOR "LOW LIFES" TO GET INTO THESE COMPUTER SYSTEMS. I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH PHONE COMPANY, JEEP FCA CASE MANAGEMENT, APPLE ON THE ISSUES OF MY HACKED PHONE AND UCONNECT SYSTEM.

I GOT INTO MY VEHICLE AND WHEN I TRIED STARTING IT WOULD NOT TURN ON THE ENGINE. THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD ILLUMINATE WAS THE SPEEDOMETER AREA. THE AUDIO UNIT WOULD TURN ON OFF AND THEN ON AND THEN OFF. I TRIED ABOUT 10 TIMES AND WOULD NOT START THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN IT HAPPENED.

THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM HAS A WEATHER ALERT NOTIFICATION THAT CAN'T BE DISABLED. IT TAKES UP THE ENTIRE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN AND DOES NOT GO AWAY UNLESS I TAKE MY EYES OFF THE ROAD TO CLICK ON IT TO CLOSE THE WINDOW. THIS HAPPENS EVERYDAY IN MY JEEP WITH A WIND ADVISORY. PRETTY ABSURD NOTIFICATION ESPECIALLY SINCE IT HAPPENS EVERY DAY. I LIVE ON THE WEST COATS AND UNDERSTAND IT CAN BE WINDY. SUPER DANGEROUS TO CONSTANTLY POP UP AND MAKE ME CLOSE IT MANUALLY.

AFTER GOING THROUGH AN AUTO CAR WASH THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE CAR ROLLED INTO A POLE WHILE PULLING UP TO A VACUUM STATION ABOUT 50 YARDS FROM THE EXIT. I BELIEVE THE ABS SYSTEM NOTIFIED THE CAR THAT IT WAS IN A SLIDE BECAUSE THE REAR WHEELS CONTINUE TO ROTATE WHILE THE FRONT WHEELS ARE NOT ROTATING WHILE BEING PULLED THROUGH THE CAR WASH TRACKS. THEREFORE TRICKING THE SYSTEM INTO THINKING IT SHOULD NOT BRAKE WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED.

THIS IS IN REFERENCE TO AN ACCIDENT ON 1/22/20 AT APPROXIMATELY 5:45PM NEAR PITTSBURGH, PA. I HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE 'DRIVER SIDE' LOWER OR 'FOOT' AIR BAG, AS IT DID NOT 'UNDEPLOY' OR IF IT DID, IT IS VERY BULKY AFTER DOING SO AND BECAUSE OF THAT, IT CAUSED, IN MY OPINION, ADDITIONAL AND UNNECESSARY DAMAGES TO THE OTHER PARTY'S INVOLVED. SITUATION - IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE ACCIDENT, I NEEDED TO APPLY THE BRAKES AND COULD NOT DO SO BECAUSE THE AIRBAG WAS IN THE WAY OF MY FEET REACHING AND PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN DRIVE AND IDLING WHICH, CONSEQUENTLY LED TO ME PUSHING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME FURTHER THAN THE ACTUAL SPOT OF THE ACCIDENT AND 'POSSIBLY' INTO THE VEHICLES IN FRONT OF HER. I LITERALLY HAD TO PUT THE JEEP IN 'NEUTRAL' AND THEN PRESS THE 'POWER OR ON/OFF' BUTTON TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND TO KEEP IT FROM CONTINUING TO PUSH HER CAR. NOW ... DO I BELIEVE YOUR VEHICLE SAVED MY LIFE ABSOLUTELY! HOWEVER, THIS AIRBAG ISSUE SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING THAT COULD HAVE TURNED OUT HORRIBLY WRONG HAD I NOT KNOWN HOW TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF WITHOUT USING THE BREAK. IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN UNCONSCIOUS, THEN IN THEORY I L COULD HAVE PUSHED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME UNTIL WHAT I WAS PUSHING VIA IDLING WAS TOO MUCH WEIGHT FOR THE LOW RPM'S OF IDLING TO BEAR. ADDITIONAL DETAILS - WHILE EXITING THE HIGHWAY, BUT STILL ON THE EXIT RAMP, I WAS INVOLVED IN A MULTI CAR (4) ACCIDENT THAT I BELIEVE (AS I DID OVERHEAR CONVERSATIONS FROM THE OTHER DRIVERS BUT BEING THE 4TH VE

ON SEP 2, 2019 WHILE TRAVELING STRAIGHT AT AROUND 60MPH THE STEERING WHEEL TURNED SLIGHTLY TO THE LEFT AND LOCKED IN THAT POSITION FOR A FEW SECONDS, ALMOST CAUSING A DEADLY CRASH ON THE FREEWAY AS THE VEHICLE ALMOST HIT THE CEMENT DIVIDER. I APPLIED FORCE TO TURN THE WHEEL IN THE OTHER DIRECTION, TO NO AVAIL FOR A FEW SECONDS, BUT THEN WHEN THE WHEEL "UNLOCKED" IT CLICKED AND THE CAR SWERVED TO THE RIGHT, CAUSING US TO ALMOST SPIN AROUND. I HELD THE WHEEL AS STRAIGHT AS I COULD, BUT WE DID GET INTO A COLLISION WHEN THE CAR WAS ALREADY STRAIGHTENING BACK. I REQUESTED MAINTENANCE RECORDS FROM AVIS, THE RENTAL COMPANY, BUT THEY DENIED RELEASING THEM. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE COMPEL THEM TO RELEASE MAINTENANCE RECORDS FOR THIS VEHICLE? WE ALMOST DIED THAT DAY AND THEY WON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FAULTY STEERING MECHANISM. AVIS IS ACTUALLY ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT MONEY FROM ME FOR THE DAMAGES BUT WON'T RELEASE THE RECORDS. THANK YOU!

RADIO NOT WORKING PROBLEM WITH U CONNECT , CAR PARKED IN DRIVEWAY

TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE SUNROOF IS LEAKING THEY TRIED TO FIX IT TWICE FAILED THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT THE COMPLETE DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR OF MY VEHICLE WAS WET THEY SAID THE REASON WHY IT WAS WET BECAUSE IT THE SUNROOF BOLTS HAD RUSTED IT IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD AND ALREADY HAS RUST .

VEHICLE STRUCT POLE ON PASSENGER SIDE, AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, AND SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE ENTIRE PASSENGER SIDE INCLUDING DOOR INTRUSION INTO THE CABIN. BOTH MAJOR SUPPORT PILLARS WERE BENT AND SIDE WINDOWS SHATTERED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE HEADLIGHT COVERS WERE CRACKED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS MAY OVERHEAT AND CAUSE A FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ELGIN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1010 E CHICAGO ST, ELGIN, IL 60120, (847) 697-0900) WHERE THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WAS NO FAILURE AND SHE WAS AT FAULT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 72 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL BANG NOISE AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AND WAS DRIVEN TO TALLAHASSEE DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM FIAT (3987 W TENNESSEE ST, TALLAHASSEE, FL 32304, (844) 280-9221) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,300.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, IT BEGAN BEEPING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. I TRIED TURNING TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON, BUT AS SOON AS I PUT IT INTO DRIVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND THE CAR STARTED BEEPING AGAIN. FROM SPEAKING WITH FELLOW JEEP OWNERS (ALL DIFFERENT MODELS) THIS PROBLEM SEEMS PRETTY COMMON AND UNSAFE. THE CAR ONLY HAS 5700 MILES ON IT. TOTALLY UNEXPECTED WHEN SPENDING SO MUCH MONEY ON A BRAND NEW CAR.

THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN MAY 2019 CURRENTLY HAS 2700 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I WAS TRAVELING ALONG THE HIGHWAY AND BEGAN HEARING A LOUD NOISE THAT SEEMED TO BE EMANATING FROM MY UNDERCARRIAGE. I DROVE TO FIRST OFF-RAMP TO INSPECT AND DISCOVERED A PART OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM HAD BROKEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER DRIVABLE AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP. LATER, THE SERVICE WRITER INFORMED ME THAT A CALIPER HAD BROKEN AND THAT DAMAGES WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I WAS NOT PROVIDED WITH A CAUSE FOR THIS FAILURE.

PURCHASED A 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 1 MONTH AGO THAT HAD LESS THAN 3,000 MILES ON IT. YESTERDAY WHEN DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, WE WERE GOING ROUGHLY 40 MILES AN HOUR WHEN THE CAR CAME OUT OF GEAR AND LOST ALL POWER TO THE WHEELS. PULLED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY AND TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP . HAD VEHICLE FLATBEDDED TO DEALERSHIP WHERE THE TRANS HAD TO BE MANUALLY DISENGAGED TO GET OF THE TOW VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE HAS 4,000 MILES ON IT.
