2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee complaints

27 DAYS AFTER THE PURCHASE OF VEHICLE BATTERY WENT COMPLETELY DEAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ON THE 3RD DAY AFTER THIS REPAIR, " CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT WENT ON

TRANSMISSION SHIFTS HARD AND ROUGH. MAINLY SHUTTERS THE ENTIRE CAR WHEN THE AUTOMATIC TRANS DOWNSHIFTS FROM 3-2-1 GEARS. VERY NOTICABLE FROM 2-1 GEAR. WILL ALMOST SURGE/JUMP THE CAR FROM THESE TWO GEARS. THIS CAN BE A HAZARD AS IF I WAS TO STOP FAST IT WILL JERK THE ENTIRE CAR AND ALMOST LUNGES THE CAR FORWARD WHEN DOING SO. THIS CAR WAS BOUGHT JULY 27TH, 2019, WITH 2K MILES ON IT. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND OF COARSE THEY DENY ANY ISSUE AS THEY WOULD BE OUT THOUSANDS OF LABOR DOLLARS IF THEY WERE TO FIX 1 CAR. SO IT'S TOO EASY FOR THEM TO PASS OFF THAT IT'S FINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, A WARNING INDICATOR APPEARED, NOTIFYING THE CONTACT TO PULL OVER WITHIN THE NEXT FIFTY MINUTES. THE VEHICLE STALLED AND WAS UNABLE TO RESTART. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS CONTACTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO LARRY HILLIS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT (3211 N WESTWOOD BLVD, POPLAR BLUFF, MO 63901, (573) 785-5769). THE DEALER STATED THAT THE BATTERY WAS SEVERELY DISCHARGED. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,321.

TODAY MAKES THE 3RD TIME IVE HAD MY CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP. 1ST TIME THEY SAID IT BLEW A FUSE. THIS IS AFTER I GOT A MESSAGE THAT MY AIR SUSPENSION NEEDED SERVICING IMMEDIATELY.THAT LASTED OVERNIGHT. TOOK IT BACK THE NEXT DAY. I WAS TOLD IT WAS A FACTORY DEFECT. PAINT OVERSPRAY, LOOSE WIRING. THEY FIXED THAT. IT LASTED A FEW DAYS. THEN AS I WAS ABOUT TO LEAVE TOWN. I GOT THE MESSAGE AGAIN. I WAS TOLD IT WAS OK TO DRIVE. SO I DID..TODAY I TOOK IT BACK IN. NOW THE DEALERSHIP IS TRYING TO GET ME TO TRADE MY CAR. WHICH WILL COST ME MORE MONRY. WE SHOULDNT HAVE TO PAY ANYMORE MONEY OUT OF POCKET..AND OUR PYTS WILL GO UP. THIS MESSAGE HAPPENS AS CAR IS MOVING. ITS SUPPOSED TO BE RAISING UP.

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW LAST WEEK AND THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM DOESN'T WORK. I RETURNED THE CAR TO COLONIAL DODGE-JEEP IN HUDSON, MA YESTERDAY WITH 130 MILES ON THE CAR THEY VERIFIED THAT DOESN'T WORK, BUT DO NOT HAVE ANY 'FIX' FOR IT.

WHILE WAITING STATIONARY TO TURN ON A CITY STREET, THE CAR WAS IN THE AUTO START/STOP MODE. AS SOON AS I TOOK MY FOOT OF THE BRAKE TO BEGIN TURNING, THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AND STARTED FLASHING WARNGING LIGHTS AND CYCLING THROUGH SEVERAL WARNINGS LIKE FCW INDICATOR DISABLED. THE CAR ALSO TOLD ME THE LANE DEPARTURE SENSOR WAS TURNED OFF AS WELL. THE CAR CONTINUED TO FLASH THESE LIGHTS AND CYCLE THROUGH MULTIPLE OTHER WARNINGS AND REFUSED TO SHUT OFF. AT ONE POINT THE CAR EVEN TURNED ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES BY ITSELF.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WITH 750 MILES THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, ABS, CHECK ENGINE, BRAKE SERVICE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHTS ALL COME ON. WHILE DRIVING NOTICED CAR WASNT TRACKING MILES THEN DIED ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MILES PER HOUR.

STOP/START SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT WHEN THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT THE CAR TURNS OFF AT STOP LIGHT AND DOES NOT RESTART AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS PUSHED. ALL ITEMS ON THE SHIFT INDICATOR BEGIN TO FLASH. CAR MUST BE TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. THE STOP/START SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES AND IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

THE JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE CAME WITH 20 INCH TIRES. THE "FULL SIZE SPARE" IS ONLY 18 INCH. THE INTERNET SAYS HAVING 2 DIFFERENT SIZE TIRES CAN BE DANGEROUS FOR DRIVING AND /OR DAMAGING TO THE DIFFERENTIAL. JEEP SHOULD BE MADE TO GIVE A VALID FULL SIZE SPARE TIRE. THE CUSTOMER HAS TO PAY EXTRA FOR THE 'FULL SIZE SPARE'.

CAR STALLS WHEN DECELERATING. HAPPENED ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS ONLY AS WE REFUSED TO TAKE THE HIGHWAY FOR FEAR OF AN ACCIDENT.

THE VEHICLE FELT LIKE NO GAS RESPONSE TO MOVE IN GEAR THEN. I CAME TO STOP AT LIGHT TO TURN LEFT CAR IN DRIVE RUNNING.VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL. STUCK DEAD IN ROAD. AFTER TRYING EVERYTHING TO MOVE VEHICLE I GOT OFF 3 LANE ROAD TO DRIVEWAY OF SENIOR RESIDENCE HOME.VEHICLE RUNNING TO STAY WARM IT DID IT AGAIN WOULD MOVE IN ANY GEAR. FLATBED CAME TO TAKE TO DEALER SINCE THEY JUST DID VALVE KIT IN TRANSMISSION 13 DAYS PREVIOUS AND 156 MILES APPROXIMATELY.) AFTER ALL THESE EXPERIENCES I'VE HAD IN LITTLE TIME AND MILEAGE OCCURED THIS NEW 2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE IS UNSAFE WITH ALL THESE TRANSMISSION TROUBLES. TRANSMISSION NEVER KNEW WHEN TO SHIFT NORMAL SINCE 1000 MILES. EROTIC SHIFT WITH NOICE AND THUMP AFTER STOPPING , FEELS LIKE NO GAS TO MOVE VEHICLE IN GEAR DRIVING. TOOK A TURN AND FELT LIKE OUT OF GEAR NO RESPONSE IN GAS FUEL PEDAL, TIMES OF ACCELERATION IT WOULD LAG THEN EXTREME TAKE OFF AND JOLT YOU FORWARD. SHALL BE ALSO REGISTERING COMPLAINT WITH FCA AND ISSUE OF NEW CAR LEMON LAW.

THE GAS PEDAL BECAME STUCK WHEN I WAS DRIVING AROUND LOCAL STREETS. I WAS STOPPING MY TRUCK BECAUSE I WAS COMING UP TO AN INTERSECTION. WHEN I LIFTED MY FOOT FROM THE GAS PEDAL IT DID NOT COME UP. ALMOST AS IF THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS ENGAGED. IT WAS SCARY AND I WENT A LITTLE TOO FAR INTO THE INTERSECTION WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE.

CONTINUALLY GETTING LOW VOLTAGE ISSUES DESPITE HAVING IT "FIXED" AT THE DEALER. PARKING BRAKE WON'T TURN OFF.

DUE TO ISSUES WITH RADIO'S CORE SOFTWARE, THE DISPLAY OF THE CAR WHICH CONTROL ALL VITAL FUNCTIONS OF THE CAR INCLUDING TEMPERATURE CONTROL GOES INACCESSIBLE WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION. IT IS ACCESSIBLE ONLY WHEN CAR COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP AND SOFTWARE IS ALLOWED TO REBOOT WHICH TAKES MORE THAN 20 MINUTES. THIS IS SO AGAINST THE SAFETY BECAUSE THE MAIN CORE CONTROLLING UNIT OF THE CAR IS OF NO USE DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS NO DEFINITE SOLUTION AND ANSWER BY THE DEALERSHIP, SERVICE BRANCH, UNCONNECT CUSTOMER CARE AND STAR TICKET SYSTEM. THE CAR GOT INTO THIS ISSUE WITHIN 24 HOURS OF LEASING IT AND IS A BRAND NEW 2019 MODEL.
