Summary

I was driving down a residential road, going about 30 mph. I went over a very small bump. My driver's side seat headrest exploded open and hit me in the back of the head. It scared me so much I swerved my car. Luckily it was a quiet street and I was going slow or I would have had an accident. I have a medical condition called fibromyalgia so this triggered severe headaches and fatigue for about a week. Luckily no serious injuries. I took it to a Jeep dealership and they said it's covered under the extended warranty and will be repaired for free. But what about a recall to avoid this dangerous safety issue in the first place? What about the passenger seat that is also now waiting to pop open and injure someone?

Summary

2013 Grand Cherokee: Driving on highway, battery indicator came up on dashboard, all dashboard lights started flashing, windshield wipers turned on, and the car abruptly stalled in the middle of the highway. Inside hood, alternator smoking as if it was going to ignite. Alternator, battery, wire harness, fuse box, computer: all fried. Expensive repair. Problems line up with exactly this existing recall NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 17V435000 "If the alternator fails, the vehicle may stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash. There is also the possibility that the alternator may short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire." Jeep/Chrysler already fixed this recall on this specific car in 2018. According to dealership the warranty for repair is 2 years. Jeep is allegedly "fixing" these cars resulting in the recall consequence to happen regardless. Looking into this issue online it seems I am not the only person to experience this. Jeep/Chrysler needs to open the recall back up as there are unsafe cars on the road unbeknownst to drivers. In addition to this there is an existing recall-NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 19V813000- fuel pump relay, which can result in the car suddenly stalling and causing an accident. I have been trying for two years to get this repaired by various Jeep dealerships. They claim there is a limited amount of parts. I have been informed numerous times that if the car stalls as a result of that recall they will reimburse the repair, which indicates there isn't a shortage on the part. Jeep is dragging their feet leaving unsafe cars on the road.

Summary

The vehicle engine stalls while driving. The electrical remains on, however the engine stalls. My safety is put in risk because this happens while driving on the highway and normal streets. I have taken it to the dealer (Glendale Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram 10070 Manchester Road, St. Louis, Mo. 63122 (3140 965-5100) they claimed to have never heard of this issue, but informed me there was a recall on the Fuel Pump Relay. They replaced, however the issue continues and they claim they cannot figure out the problem. I did receive a letter from FCA-Fiat Chrysler Automobiles regarding the recal-P54(NHTSA14V-530) or safety recall R09 (NHTSA 15V-115). The engine will re-start after about 15 minutes and drives fine until the next time it stalls, which has become more frequent. There is no warning when the engine will stall, it just stops running. This problem has been going on now for over a year with the stalling becoming more frequent.

Summary

On July 15, 2021, I was driving my vehicle 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee in my town. My daughter was sitting in the front seat of the vehicle. As I was driving, the passenger headrest deployed unexpectedly for no reason. I heard a loud pop and then my daughter scream as the headrest hit her in the back of the head. She was not injured. I have no idea why this occurred. I went home and researched this online and discovered several articles in which similar incidents have occurred with other people in similar vehicles. I contacted the dealership to see if they were any recalls for this particular issue and I was told no. Also, the representative from the dealership told me they had talked with a supervisor and did not know what I was talking about.

Summary

The active head restraint on the driver side deployed while stopped. There was no rear end collision. It hit me in the back of the head and startled me, glad I was stopped. There seams to be a defect in the plastic parts in the head rest where the metal bar in there is installed. This certainly could have caused an accident if I was in motion on they highway and was distracted by this sudden deployment.

Summary

Both the front driver and front passenger headrests have deployed in the past 1 year; however, the vehicle was not involved in an accident or collision to cause such deployment. The vehicle was parked when each headrest deployed. This is clearly a defect of the vehicle. The Jeep dealership estimated the cost to repair at approximately $800 per headrest, which I will not pay, because this is not an issue caused by me. It is a vehicle defect, and needs to be recalled immediately as evidenced by the many news articles online related to this topic. It is very dangerous and could cause serious harm to someone.

Summary

PLAIN AND SIMPLE, I BOUGHT MY JEEP NEW IN 2014. IT WAS EQUIPPED WITH READY ALERT BRAKING (RAB). IN 2016 IT FAILED TO STOP CAUSING AN ACCIDENT AND INJURING MY WIFE. THEN RECENTLY I DISCOVERED THE RAB SYSTEM ON MY CAR HAD BEEN RECALLED (14V104000) BACK IN 2014 AND I HAD NEVER BEEN NOTIFIED. AS I REVIEWED THE RECALL CAMPAIGN IT WAS ABUNDANTLY CLEAR IT HAD CAUSED MY WIFE'S 2016 ACCIDENT AND INJURIES. I CONTACT JEEP'S HOTLINE RELATING IN AN ODD QUIRK I HAD RECEIVED WRITTEN PROOF IN AN UNRELATED CORRESPONDENCE FROM CHRYSLER THAT MY 2013 WAS BUILT WITH THE RAB SYSTEM INCLUDED. INSTEAD OF TRYING TO REMEDY THE RECALL OVERSIGHT THEY TOLD ME TO "CONTACT MY INSURANCE COMPANY." A WEEK LATER I TRIED TO RE-EXPLAIN THE FAULT WAS WITH THEIR FACTORY INSTALLED AND RECALLED READY ALERT BRAKE SYSTEM ON MY VEHICLE. BECAUSE THEY WON'T BOTHER TO REVIEW THE PROOF I HOLD NOR BELIEVE THEIR BUILD (VIN) DATA IS WRONG I HAVE NO PLACE TO TURN EXCEPT YOU OR A LEGAL REMEDY. I HOPE YOU CAN MOTIVATE JEEP TO DO THE RIGHT THING. THANK YOU.

INITIALLY BROUGHT MY JEEP INTO SHOP DUE TO JERKY MOVEMENT AT SLOWS SPEEDS WHILE TRYING TO TURN OR BACKING UP AND THEN "SERVICE 4WD" LIGHT COMING ON. WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSFER CASE CONTROL MODULE AND SHIFT MOTOR WERE BAD. WHEN I PICKED UP THE JEEP EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE WORKING FINE. LESS THAN 3MONTHS LATER, AND APPROX. 5,000 MILES, "SERVICE 4WD" LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND SEEMS TO BE STUCK IN 4 LOW. HAD CAR TOWED TO SAME SHOP, IN CASE ONE OF THE PREVIOUS PARTS WENT BAD, AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSFER CASE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED NOW. LOOKING INTO THE ERROR, IT SEEMS THIS IS ANOTHER "KNOWN PROBLEM" WITH JEEP ALONG WITH THE ROCKER ARM ISSUE I PREVIOUSLY HAD ON THIS JEEP. AS BOTH OF THESE ISSUES ARE SAFETY RELATED SINCE THE VEHICLE COULD STALL OR SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING, I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON BOTH ISSUES. ESPECIALLY SINCE BOTH OF THESE REPAIRS ARE VERY EXPENSIVE!

RECALLS 19V-913 AND 15V-115 AROUND THE 28TH DAY OF DECEMBER, 2020, I WAS IN PUBLIC STREET ON MY WAY TO MY MOTHER'S HOME AT NIGHT IN MY VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN. I BEGAN TO PUSH THE ENGINE PEDAL AND IT DIDN'T REACTED. IT WAS DIFFICULT TO PUSH THE BREAK. I WAS NEAR THE ENTRANCE OF THE COMMUNITY GATE AND, BECAUSE I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY, I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR ON NEUTRO AND MANAGED TO ENTER THE COMMUNITY AND LEFT THE CAR INSIDE THE GATE COMMUNITY BECAUSE WAS NOT ABLE TO REACH MY MOTHER'S HOUSE. IT WAS VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS SITUATION, BECAUSE I COULD HAVE BEEN HIT BY A CAR BY THE SUDDEN SLOWING OF CAR VELOCITY AND WHILE TURNING LEFT TO THE COMMUNITY GATE IN NEUTRO. CALLED CHRYSLER DEALER TO INFORM THEM THAT THE SAME STALLING SITUATION THAT OCCURRED THE SEVERAL TIMES THEY INSPECTED MY CAR FOR PREVIOUSLY, HAPPENED AGAIN. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE SOONEST APPOINTMENT THEY CAN GIVE ME IS IN THE 18TH OF JANUARY OF 2021. THE CAR IS STATIONED WAITING TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER. THIS WOULD BE AT LEAST THE 6TH TIME THE CAR HAD THIS PROBLEM, AND THE THIRD THAT I HAVE TO TOW IT. THE FIRST TIME THE CAR WAS TOWED WAS IN APRIL OF 2018; THAT TIME THEY REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP/MODULE. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2018, THE EXTERNAL FUEL PUMP RELAY WAS REPLACED. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALER AGAIN IN MARCH AND NOVEMBER OF 2019 FOR THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THEY ALLEGED NOTHING WAS FOUND. THE LAST TIME WAS IN THE 11TH OF AUGUST OF 2020, WHEN THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER BECAUSE IT STALLED AND COULD NOT BE TURN ON; THE FUEL PUMP RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT OVERLAY HARNESS WAS REPLACED, (ACCORDING TO WORK ORDER). JUST AFTER FOUR MONTHS, THE CAR STALLED WHILE MOVING IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRANSITED PUBLIC STREET AT NIGHT. THIS HAPPENED PREVIOUSLY, BUT THE CAR MANAGE TO RECOVER QUICKLY WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS WHY I BEGAN TO DRIVE SLOWLY. MORE THAN TWO YEARS AND STILL THE SAFETY ISSUE PERSISTS.

Summary

MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND 4X2 'ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT' (AHR) HEADRESTS MANUFACTURED BY GRAMMER AG SUFFER FROM A DEFECT. FCA US AND GRAMMER AG'S ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT IS MEANT TO SPRING FORWARD IN THE EVENT OF A REAR-END COLLISION TO CATCH A VEHICLE OCCUPANT'S HEAD TO PREVENT WHIPLASH, THE FEATURE HAS DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING OR EXTERNAL FORCE FROM A COLLISION, AND FORCEFULLY STRUCK THE BACK OF MY PASSENGER'S (WIFE) HEAD WHILE WE WERE IN MOTION. THE FORCE OF THE IMPACT TO THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE PASSENGER'S (WIFE) HEAD AND WITHOUT WARNING OR CAUSE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION. SHE WAS INITIALLY STARTLED AND WE DID NOT KNOW WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THEN WE DISCOVERED THE BROKEN HEADREST. LATER, MY WIFE EXPERIENCED A HEADACHE AND NECK DISCOMFORT OVER SEVERAL DAYS. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL LAWSUIT DOCUMENTS ONLINE FILED BY OTHER JEEP OWNERS WHO STATE THE CAUSE OF THE DEFECT AS THE FAILURE OF A 'CHEAP PLASTIC COMPONENT' INSIDE THE DEFENDANTS' AHR. SPECIFICALLY, THE FEATURE CONTAINS A PLASTIC BRACKET THAT ACTS AS THE TRIGGERING MECHANISM AND HOLDS THE FEATURE'S SPRING-LOADED RELEASE IN PLACE UNTIL A SENSOR SIGNALS THAT THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN HIT IN ITS REAR, THE CASE EXPLAINS. AS A 'COST-SAVING MEASURE,' THE PLAINTIFFS SAY, CHRYSLER AND GRAMMER AG DESIGNED THE AHR BRACKET WITH 'AN INFERIOR AND INEXPENSIVE FORM OF PLASTIC' THAT CAN CRACK AND BREAK DOWN PREMATURELY DUE TO THE 75 POUNDS OF CONSTANT PRESSURE APPLIED BY THE AHR'S SPRINGS ONTO THE BRACKET. I MAY HAVE MISSED IT, BUT I HAVE ONLY SEEN A RECALL FOR 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HEADRESTS. I WOULD LIKE THE PARTS ON THESE HEADRESTS REPLACED. NOT SURE IF THE SAME DEFECT ALSO EXISTS ON REAR PASSENGER SEAT HEADRESTS.

Summary

SAFETY RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THIS ON NOVEMBER 14, 2019. THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY. NOT SURE WHAT THE TIMEFRAME ON RECALLS IS, BUT I'D SAY MY SAFETY HAS BEEN AT RISK LONG ENOUGH. MY VEHICLE OFTEN SPUTTERS AND SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHILE ACCELERATING, ESPECIALLY WHEN TRYING TO ACHIEVE HIGH SPEEDS QUICKLY (WHILE ENTERING FREEWAY TRAFFIC FROM AN ON RAMP OR WHEN PASSING INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC FOR EXAMPLE). THE ISSUE RELATED TO THIS RECALL CAN CAUSE MY VEHICLE TO STALL WHICH WOULD BE SEVERELY DANGEROUS IN THESE SITUATIONS.

Summary

MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE STARTED MAKING A TICKING NOISE THE SECOND TIME THE DEFAULT WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED 4 YEARS AGO IN RECALL WARRANTY AND HAS MADE AN AUDIBLE TICKING NOISE SINCE THEN. DESPITE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS TO TWO DEALERSHIPS, IN ANNISTON, AL AND FOLEY, AL, I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE TICKING WAS NORMAL FOR THE HEMI 5.7L ENGINE. THREE WEEKS AGO, I TOOK A JEEP FOR A ROUTINE OIL CHANGE AND THE TECHNICIAN WROTE ON MY MULTI-POINT INSPECTION PAPERWORK 'NOTICED AN AUDIBLE TICKING'. THIS TECHNICIAN HAS TOLD ME TWICE PREVIOUSLY THAT THIS WAS NORMAL AND FAILED TO MENTION TO ME PERSONALLY WHILE IN THE DEALERSHIP. I ONLY NOTICED HE WROTE IT ON MY PAPERWORK AFTER I HAD LEFT. I CALLED AND REQUESTED TO SPEAK WITH THE TECHNIQUE CONCERNING THE TICKING AND I WAS TOLD I WOULD RECEIVE A CALL BACK AND TO THIS MOMENT HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A CALL. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, I SEE THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE HEMI 5.7L ENGINE HOWEVER, CHRYSLER HAS FAILED TO ISSUE A RECALL TO CORRECT THE DEFAULT ENGINES. THE TICKING SPEEDS UP WHEN ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED TWO IN THE LAST TWO DAYS. ONCE, IN THE DRIVEWAY AFTER THE VEHICLE HAD BE STARTED AND RUNNING FOR APPROXIMATELY THREE MINUTES. THE SECOND TIME, WHILE DRIVING DOWN A BUSY HIGHWAY AND SLOWING FOR A CAR TO TURN AHEAD OF ME. I LUCKILY WAS ABLE TO VEER OFF THE ROAD TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT. FOLLOWING THIS, MY FCW TURNED OFF WITHOUT WARNING AND WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO TURN BACK ON. CURRENTLY, MY VEHICLE HAS AN OPEN RECALL TO, AGAIN, REPLACE THE FAULTY FUEL PUMP RELAY SWITCH WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN REPLACED THREE PRIOR TIMES, ONCE BY THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND TWICE BY A PRIVATE TECHNICIAN. THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED A YEAR AGO AND STILL DOES NOT HAVE A REMEDY PER THE DEALERSHIP. I TRAVEL FREQUENTLY, AT TIMES 300 MILES PER DAY.MY CHILD TRAVELS WITH ME AND I FEAR THE VEHICLE WILL FAIL WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE.

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE 12 MONTHS AGO - V62/NHTSA 19V-813, FUEL PUMP RELAY. A ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING CAN CAUSE VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN SHOP 2 TIMES IN LAST WEEK WITH ISSUES WITH THE ETC (ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL) CAUSED BY THE FUEL PUMP. FAILURE TO START FROM A COLD AND A WARM START HAS HAPPENED 6 TIMES. FIRST REPAIR COST $553.66 AND TODAY'S REPAIR OF THE FUEL PUMP WHILE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY (SINCE THE FIRST RECALL PART FAILED) DOESN'T HELP FIX THE PROBLEM. SHOULD NOT TAKE 12 MONTHS TO RESOLVE AN ISSUE OF THIS MAGNATUDE. IT IS VERY STRESSFUL DRIVING THIS VEHICLE WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS HAVING ISSUES AND COULD FAIL AND CAUSE A CRASH. HOW SOON WILL THIS RECALL BE RECTIFIED?11

Summary

MY COMPLAINT IS REGARDING NHTSA RECALL V62/NHTSA 19V-813 FOR MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE ISSUE IS THAT THE RECALL HAS BEEN IN EFFECT FOR OVER A YEAR AND THERE IS STILL NO FIX. MY VEHICLE HAS CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND NOW DOES NOT START AT ALL. I HAVE A CAR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE, FIX, OR SELL DUE TO NO FAULT OF MY OWN. MY ONLY DESIRE IS A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE OR AT LEAST A REFUND OF THE CURRENT VALUE. WE CONTACTED THE JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE HOTLINE AND THEIR RESPONSE IS THAT THE COST WOULD BE TOO GREAT TO THE COMPANY. THESE VEHICLES ARE DANGEROUS AND THE FACT THAT THERE'S STILL NO FIX SHOULD BE VERY TROUBLING. NO ONE SHOULD BE DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT IS KNOWN TO CUT OFF AT ANYTIME. PLEASE MODIFY THIS RECALL TO ORDER A REPLACEMENT OR REFUND FROM JEEP. IT'S GENUINELY THE ONLY SAFE THING TO DO. THANK YOU.

Summary

I HAD CRUISE AT 80MPH ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AND DISENGAGED ON EXIT RAMP BY USING THE BRAKE. THE CAR SLOWED BUT I USED BRAKE AGAINN TO YIELD ONTO 4 LANE ROAD AND AGAIN TO CROSS OVER 2 LANES INTO A GAS STATION. I PULLED UP TO PUMP SLOWLY. WHEN I PUT THE BRAKE ON AGAIN TO COMPLETTE THE STOP,THE CRUISE REENGAGED AND THE CAR TOOK OFF. LUCKILY THERE WAS OPEN PARKING SPOT,I AIMED THERE AND CAR JUST KEPT GOING. OVER A CURB, THROUGH ABOUT 75 YARDS OF GRASS AND INTO A FIELD,ABOUT 25 FEET IN. NO BRAKING EVEN THO I TRIED. IN THE BRUSH WAS A CONCRETE BLOCK I HIT THAT CAUSED BOTH PASSENGER TIRES TO BLOW AND THEN THE CAR SLOWED AND WENT TO THE LEFT SOME 5 FEET AND STOPPED. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I ONLY PLOWED DOWN SMALL BRUSH AND MISSED A TREE IN MY PATH WHEN CAR VEERED LEFT AFTER TIRES BLEW. IT WAS A DRY SUNNY MORNING WITH NO ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS. I HAD ONLY BEEN DRIVING FOR AN HOUR AND HAD STOPPED TO GET GAS AND USE RESTROOM. THEPA STATE TROOPERS CAME BUT SINCE NO DAMAGE TO OTHER PROPERTY AND NO INJURIES, THEY DID NOT FILE A REPORT. USAA INSURANCE NOTIFIED AT ONCE AND TOOK THE CAR. THEY CLAIM IT AS A TOTAL LOSS. I AM BLESSED TO BE OK BUT THIS CRUISE/BRAKE MALFUNCTION COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY ANYWHERE ELSE. I HOPE YOU WILL INVESTIGATE I WOULD NOT WANT ANYONE ELSE TO EXPERIENCE THIS

Summary

ON SEPTEMBER 1, 2020 SHORTLY AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND WHILE IN MOTION, THE ENGINE STOPPED CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO STOP IN ROADWAY WITH HARD PRESSURE ON BRAKES. FORTUNATELY, NO CONTACT WAS MADE WITH PERSON OR PROPERTY. I ATTEMPTED TO RE-START THE VEHICLE BUT IT WOULD ONLY CRANK AND NOT START. SEVERAL MINUTES LATER WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD TROUBLE STARTING ON MANY OCCASIONS PRIOR BUT THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME IT STOPPED WHILE DRIVING. THE ONLY INDICATION THE VEHICLE HAD LOST POWER WAS WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO SLOW THE VEHICLE AND TURN THE WHEEL. PRIOR TO THIS THE DEALERSHIP HAS EXAMINED THE ISSUE ON AT LEAST FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS SPANNING YEARS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE FUEL PUMP RELAY HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE ON THIS VEHICLE. AFTER BOTH OF THESE ALLEGED REPAIRS THE VEHICLE HAS EXHIBITED THE SAME SYMPTOMS AND RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP. IN THE LAST VISIT WITH THE DEALERSHIP ON JUNE 23, 2020 AND PHONE CALL WITH FCA US LLC'S CUSTOMER SERVICE ON SEPTEMBER 1, 2020 I WAS DIRECTLY INFORMED THAT NO SOLUTION EXISTS. THERE IS NO ADVANCED NOTICE TO THE DRIVER AS THIS DOES NOT OCCUR EACH TIME THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. WHEN THE VEHICLE DOES LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING, NO NOTICEABLE INDICATION OF THIS DANGER CAN BE QUICKLY OBSERVED BY THE DRIVER. IT WAS ONLY NOTICED WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO MANEUVER THE BRAKES OR STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS A KNOWN AND HAZARDOUS CONDITION CREATED BY FCA US LLC. WHICH THEY HAVE NOT ADEQUATELY ADDRESSED.

Summary

WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN NEWINGTON,VA, MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO SUDDENLY LOST POWER. I LOST ACCELERATION, POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN A MONTH THAT THIS VEHICLE LOST POWER AND REACTED IN THIS MANNER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER AND TWO DAYS LATER WAS REPAIRED. THIS VEHICLE IS UNDER A V62 SAFETY RECALL FOR A DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP RELAY. THE REPAIR WAS A TEMPORARY FIX UNTIL JEEP COMES OUT WITH A PERMANENT FIX. IN 2015 THIS VEHICLE WAS RECALLED UNDER R09 FOR THE SAME FUEL PUMP RELAY PROBLEM. DODGE DURANGO VEHICLES HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. FIAT/CHRYSLER/JEEP CORP. HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP RELAY SINCE 2011 AND HAVE YET TO COME UP WITH A PERMANENT FIX. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF THESE VEHICLES ON THE ROAD AND THEY ARE ALL DEATH TRAPS. PLEASE PUT SOME PRESSURE ON JEEP CORP. TO FIX THIS DEADLY DEFECT IN THEIR VEHICLES. PEOPLES LIVES ARE AT STAKE!! THE WORST PART IS THAT CAR DEALERSHIPS CAN RESELL THESE USED VEHICLES KNOWING THERE IS AN OPEN SAFETY RECALL THAT HAS NOT BEEN PERMANENTLY FIXED. THE UNINFORMED CONSUMER IS BUYING A VEHICLE THAT WILL KILL THEM. FOR GOD'S SAKE DO SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary

IN NOVEMBER 2019, CHRYLSER RECALLED APPROXIMATELY 528,594 DODGE DURANGO AND JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SUVS FROM MODEL YEARS 2011 TO 2013 BECAUSE FUEL-PUMP RELAYS MAY INTERRUPT ELECTRICAL CURRENT AND PREVENT ENGINE START-UP AND/OR CONTRIBUTE TO A STALL WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER AND CHRYSLER IS STILL CLAIMING THE PART IS 'OUT OF STOCK' NEARLY 9 MONTHS LATER. WE CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE THE CAR, OR SELL IT BECAUSE OF THIS OPEN RECALL. THE CAR FREQUENTLY WILL NOT START, AND WE ARE VERY CONCERNED OF A STALL DURING DRIVING IF THE VEHICLE DOES START. WE BELIEVE CHRYSLER HAS NOT TAKEN APPROPRIATE ACTION TO MANUFACTURE OR DISTRIBUTE THE REPLACEMENT FUEL-PUMP RELAY, AND THEY CONTINUE TO REFUSE TO PROVIDE AN ESTIMATED DATE FOR THE PART TO BE IN STOCK.

Summary

MARCH 2020, I WENT TO A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP TO HAVE A RECALL REPAIRED ON MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, DUE TO ISSUE WITH MY CAR STARTING. I CONTACTED MOPAR REGARDING THE PROCEDURE TO REPAIR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL. I WAS ADVISED NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE YET, AND THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD USE A REPLACEMENT PART TO TEMPORARILY REPAIR THE RECALL. RECALL V62 WAS REPAIRED, ALONG WITH 2 OTHER RECALLS, STATED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN MARCH 2020. JUNE 8, 2020 MY VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING, I IMMEDIATELY INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP, AND I WAS TOLD THE REPAIR NEVER WAS COMPLETED. AFTER SPEAKING WITH MOPAR AND REPRESENTATIVES AT THE DEALERSHIP, THE DEALERSHIP FAILED TO SUBMIT THE CORRECT DOCUMENTATION TO MOPAR, ALSO GAVE ME MISINFORMATION, AND THE TEMPORARY FIX FAILED. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN HESITATING TO START AFTER SEVERAL TIMES FOR A WEEK AND A HALF. THE VEHICLE THEN SHUT OFF AT A STOP LIGHT. I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, AND IT THEN STALLED WHILE DRIVING IN A BUSY AREA ON JUNE 8, 2020. I CONTACTED AND OPENED A CASE THROUGH MOPAR REGARDING THE RECALL PROCEDURES AFTER MY CAR HAS STALLED, AND THERE IS STILL NO RESOLUTION TO FIX THE VEHICLE. THE REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME TO "DRIVE SAFE" AND UNFORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO SOLUTION OR TIMELINE FOR THE FINAL RECALL REPAIR. THE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT UNTIL MY CAR HAS FURTHER ISSUES, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET A CASE MANAGER. THIS POLICY IS HAZARDOUS AND CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME DUE TO THE ALREADY FAILED ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE RECALL, AND NO IMMEDIATE OR FORESEEABLE RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. *TR

Summary

CURRENT ISSUE - WHILE WAITING IN A FAST FOOD LINE THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON... AFTER RECEIVING FOOD - I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT AND BEFORE I COULD TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, IT STARTED GIVING OFF ERROR CODES RELATED TO VARIOUS ELECTRICAL ITEMS NOT BEING AVAILABLE - FIRST WARNING - SVC. AIR SUSPENSION - SECOND - BLIND SPOT DETECTION NOT AVAILABLE - THIRD EVIC ERROR - FOURTH - ADAPTIVE CRUISE NOT AVAILABLE... THEN DIED AND SMELT LIKE BURNING RUBBER WHEN I EXITED THE VEHICLE... A FAILED EFFORT BY ROADSIDE SERVICE TO JUMP THE VEHICLE DID MANAGE TO TURN ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WHICH WOULDN'T TURN OFF BUT THAT'S ALL THAT ACCOMPLISHED SO I HAD ROADSIDE SERVICE PUT IT ON A FLATBED AND TOW IT TO MY HOUSE SINCE NOTHING WAS OPENED AND I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE IT SOMEWHERE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN (OF COURSE THEY WOULDN'T ROLL UP)... PRETTY CLEARLY THIS SHOULD BE PART OF THE T39 ALTERNATOR RECALL THAT WAS ISSUED DUE TO BAD DIODES WHICH CAUSE THE ALTERNATOR TO FRY THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WITH VERY LITTLE WARNING... THE CAR SHOULD DIE AND THEN THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ALTERNATOR SHOULD RECTIFY THE SITUATION... NOT - THE LIGHT COMES ON - THE CAR IMMEDIATELY DIES - AND THEN YOU NEED A NEW PCM OR ECM AND ALL NEW WIRING... ISSUE #2 - THE SUSPENSION HAS BEEN A TOTAL FIASCO ACCUMULATING $13,000 IN DEALER ASSESSMENTS NOT UNDER WARRANTY - THE WHOLE SYSTEM HAS GONE OUT WITHIN 80,000 MILES AND EVEN AFTER REPLACING 2 AIR STRUTS - 2 UPPER CONTROL ARMS - THE TIE RODS END LINKS - AND THE CV AXLES - AND THE COMPRESSOR - IT STILL SOUNDS LIKE A RICKETY BUCKET OF JUNK... WHEN DRIVING - ALWAYS. ISSUE #3 - THE WATER PUMP CONTINUOUSLY FAILS. - NOT SURE IF WHEN DRIVING BUT ONE WOULD SUSPECT THAT TO BE THE CASE. *TR

Summary

THE VEHICLE STARTED MAKING A LOUD TAPPING SOUND FROM ENGINE AT IDLE AND WHILE DRIVING. MECHANIC DIAGNOSED IT WITH BAD LIFTERS. THE NEEDLE BEARINGS IN THE LIFTERS USED IN THIS ENGINE TEND TO FAIL. THE FAILURE CAUSES THE LIFTER BEARING TO SEIZE UP AND DAMAGE THE CAMSHAFT. HAD LIFTERS REPLACED TWO TIMES IN A 4 MONTH PERIOD. CAMSHAFT REPLACED ONE TIME. RESEARCH ON THE WEB SHOW SEVERAL EXAMPLES OF THIS SAME FAILURE IN HEMI 5.7L ENGINES. THE FAILURE CAN OCCUR ANYWHERE FROM 50,000 MILES TO OVER 100,000 MILES. THE COMMON CAUSE IS THE LIFTER BEARINGS FAILING AND DAMAGING THE CAMSHAFT. REPAIRS RANGE ANYWHERE FROM $3000-5000. THIS LEADS ME TO CONCLUDE THAT THE FAILURE IS DUE TO AN ENGINEERING DEFECT ON THE LIFTERS BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

WIFE WAS TERRIFIED BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T MANEUVER VEHICLE TO SAFETY LEAVING HER STUCK WITH CARS TRAVELING AT 45-50 MPH THROUGH THE INTERSECTION AND SHE COULDN'T SAFELY EXIT THE VEHICLE. SHE CALLED ME FOR HELP AND AS I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH HER TWO BARELY MISSED HER WITH SCREECHING BRAKES AND HER SCREAMING. I WAS 2 MINUTES FROM HER AND AS I WAS APPROACHING THE VEHICLE STARTED. WE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE HOME AND I IMMEDIATELY CALLED CHRYSLER ABOUT THE ISSUE BECAUSE I HAD ALREADY ATTEMPTED TO GET THE RECALL FIXED BUT THEY (ROCKWALL DODGE) SAID THE RECALL PART ISN'T AVAILABLE PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT. CHRYSLER SAID I COULD TAKE THE VEHICLE TO ROCKWALL DODGE WHERE THEY COULD DO A 'TEMPORARY' FIX, WHATEVER THAT IS. THAT WAS FEB 7 2020 AND I'M IN A RENTAL WITH NO FIX OR 'TEMPORARY' FIX, THAT I CALL BS. THIS VERY DANGEROUS FOR VEHICLE OWNERS AND MAY CAUSE A DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY TO MOTORISTS. MY WIFE HAS TO DRIVE OVER A 4 MILE BRIDGE 4 LANES EAST AND 4 LANES WEST WITH ONLY AN OUTSIDE SHOULDER BETWEEN ROWLETT AND ROCKWALL TX WITH SPEED THAT VARY BETWEEN 70-90 MPH, IF IT WAS TO STALL THERE SHE'S VERY LIKELY TO BE HURT BAD OR KILLED. TO THIS DATE NO 'TEMPORARY' FIX AND NOW CHRYSLER AND ROCKWALL DODGE ARE TRYING TO MAKE ME PAY FOR A RENTAL. PLEASE PUT PRESSURE ON THEM TO RESOLVE THIS BEFORE THERE IS LOSS OF LIFE.

Summary

MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO 4X4 HAS RANDOMLY BUT CONTINUOUSLY STALLED OR HASN'T STARTED UP SUCCESSFULLY FOR THE PAST YEAR THAT I HAVE OWNED IT. THIS HAS CAUSED MUCH STRESS, ANXIETY, AND INCONVENIENCE FOR ME, MY WIFE AND YOUNG DAUGHTER. WE LIVE WITH THE CONSTANT FEAR OF BEING LEFT STRANDED THROUGHOUT OR OWN CITY OR WORST YET STRANDED OUT OF TOWN DURING FAMILY ROAD TRIPS. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND UNDESIRABLE AS LOYAL JEEP VEHICLE OWNERS OF SEVERAL DIFFERENT JEEP MODELS INCLUDING TWO JEEP PATRIOTS AND ONE JEEP LIBERTY. THIS PAST FRIDAY I WAS UNABLE TO START UP MY JEEP TO GO TO WORK AND WAS LEFT STRANDED IN MY GARAGE. I HAD TO MISS WORK THAT DAY AND HAVE THE JEEP TOWED TO A LOCAL AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP WHERE IT IS STILL PARKED FOUR DAYS LATER UNABLE TO START UP AND IS UNDIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THIS IS CAUSING ME AND MY FAMILY MUCH FINANCIAL HARDSHIP DUE TO MY WIFE AND I HAVING TO ALTERNATE MISSING WORK OR TRYING TO BORROW A SPARE VEHICLE FROM OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS. I HOPE TO HAVE A REMEDY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BY THE MANUFACTURER AS THIS ISSUE AND SUBSEQUENT RECALL HAS BEEN IN EFFECT SINCE LAST YEAR 2019. I HOPE THAT THIS COMPLAINT DOES NOT FALL ON DEAF EARS AND THAT A SOLUTION IS DEVELOPED AND PROVIDED TO ME AND MY FAMILY RIGHT AWAY.

Summary

MY 2013 GRAND CHEROKEE HAS HAD THE STALLING ISSUE SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN DEC. 2016. IN 2017 AFTER REPLACING TIPM & FUEL-PUMP AT OUR EXPENSE, VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL & NEITHER JEEP NOR THE DEALERSHIP WOULD DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN CHANGE THE PART. WE FILED WITH NCDS, & THE ARBITRATOR DID NOT PURSUE THE CASE & CHRYSLER RESPONDED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS 'OPERATING AS INTENDED'. I HAVE ELECTRONIC COPIES OF THOSE DOCUMENTS. SINCE THE OFFICIAL RECALL WAS ISSUED, MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 3-4 TIMES & CONTINUES TO SHUT OFF MULTIPLE TIMES DAILY OR EVERY OTHER DAY. IT FAILED & WOULD NOT START DEC. 2019 SO I TOOK IT IN & GOT IT BACK A WEEK LATER. THEY CLAIMED MY BATTERY WAS DEAD & WOULD NOT HOLD CHARGE. HOWEVER, THE DAY BEFORE IT WOULDN'T START, I'D DRIVEN IT BACK FROM DALLAS TO LAFAYETTE, LA W NO STALL. I'D ALSO DRIVEN IT AROUND THE MORNING IT STOPPED WORKING SO I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING THAT, BUT PAID FOR THE REPAIRS & A COUPLE WEEKS LATER, IT FAILED AGAIN. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THE FUEL PUMP HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE SINCE MY VISIT IN DECEMBER. I TOOK IT IN ON JAN. 20TH FOR THE STALLING & GOT IT BACK ON THE 21ST IN THE AFTERNOON. LESS THAN 24 HRS LATER, IT STALLED AGAIN. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP ALL LAST WEEK TO REPORT THE DAILY STALLS & WENT BACK IN THIS PAST MONDAY, THE 27TH, AFTER THEY DID NOT RETURN MY CALLS TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. IT STALLED THERE IN THE DEALERSHIP PARKING LOT, & THEY GOT A TECH TO RUN THE CODES & IT CAME BACK AS THE RECALL PART. THEN THEY RAN SPECIFIC DIAGNOSTICS PER FCA'S REQUEST & SAID THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE IT. SINCE MONDAY, IT HAS STALLED TWICE SO FAR TODAY, ON WEDNESDAY. THE CAR HAS STALLED WHILE IDLING WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, WHILE DRIVING IT, AND UPON START IT WILL IMMEDIATELY DIE AFTER CRANKING UP. THE ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT & POSES A HUGE SAFETY RISK FOR MYSELF & OTHERS WHEN IT STALLS IN-OPERATION.

I HAD THE ORIGINAL RECALL DONE FOR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY, AFTER JUST OVER 2 YEARS IT STOPPED WORKING AND WHEN IT DOESN'T WORK THE CAR CAN'T START. THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAD THE RECALL DONE AND IT WAS MORE THAN 2 YEARS, I WAS NO LONGER COVERED. I HAVE REPLACED IT TWICE ALREADY SINCE THEN. I JUST RECEIVED A LETTER FROM JEEP AND THEY HAVE PUT A SECOND RECALL ON THIS PART. HOWEVER THEY DON'T HAVE THE PART WHICH IS ABOUT $10 AND THE CAR WILL NOT START WITHOUT IT. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND MAIN COMPANY AND WAS TOLD IF I HAVE A PROBLEM STARTING OR STALL WHILE DRIVING I AM TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP AND THEY WILL LOOK AT IT AND EVALUATE THE PROBLEM AND IF THE RELAY IS THE PROBLEM THEY WILL REPAIR IT WITH AN OVER THE COUNTER PART AND WILL CALL ME WHEN THE DEALERSHIP PART COMES IN. I ASKED HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE TO EVALUATE MY CAR IF IT WAS TOWED IN TO BE FIXED. NO ONE COULD GIVE ME AN ANSWER. ONLY SAYING ONCE THEY LOOK AT IT AND FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM THEN I WOULD BE NOTIFIED. HERE IS A QUOTE FROM THE LETTER THEY SENT ME ' A VEHICLE ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING CAN CAUSE A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING '. SO MY QUESTION IS, IS THIS CAR SAFE TO DRIVE AS IS, AND IF NOT WHAT ARE MY CHOICES. THEY HAVE NO ANSWER FOR THIS. I AM INFORMING YOU OF THIS PROBLEM, THEY DIDN'T OFFER A RENTAL CAR WHEN I SAID WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS SITUATION. A $10 PART AND THEY DON'T HAVE ANY, I KEEP 2 REPLACEMENTS IN THE GLOVE BOX IN CASE MY CAR DOESN'T START BUT I DIDN'T KNOW THE CAR CAN JUST STALL WHILE DRIVING. THAT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR EVERYONE THAT OWNS ONE OF THESE VEHICLES AND THE CARS AROUND THEM. IT'S A DISGRACE AND I THINK THEY KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND DIDN'T PREPARE TO HAVE THE PARTS READY FOR THIS PROBLEM. I JUST HOPE NO ONE DIES

Summary

MY CAR STALLED OUT ON A TURN AND I COULD NOT MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. I ALMOST HIT A CAR DUE TO THIS. JEEP HAS AN OPEN BUT UNFIXABLE RECALL ON THE VEHICLE. I HAVE SPOKEN TO NUMEROUS PEOPLE AT CHRYSLER, MOPAR, AND DEALERSHIPS. THEY WILL NOT HELP. BASICALLY, TOLD ME THE FIX MAY OR MAY NOT HELP, BUT IT'S A TEMPORARY ONE. THERE IS NO REAL FIX TO IT. I AM TOO SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR NOW. I CANNOT DRIVE MY CAR KNOWING THAT IT CAN STALL OUT (AS IT ALREADY HAS), WHAT IF I HIT SOMEONE AND HURT MY FAMILY OR SOMEONE ELSE. SO PRETTY MUCH, THEY HAVE AN OPEN RECALL BUT WILL NOT HELP AND THERE IS NO FIX TO IT.

Summary

I HAVE A 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED 4X4 AND HAD A TICKING NOISE WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE AND TURNING IT OFF THAT COMES AND GOES AWAY. WE HAVE HAD IT DIAGNOSED TO BE THE TRANSFER CASE MODULE AND WHEN RESEARCHING TO SEE IF I CAN BUY THE PART, I WAS ADVISED IT'S ON A NATIONAL BACKORDER WITH THE DEALER AND AFTERMARKET. ALSO WHILE RESEARCHING, SAW MULTIPLE REPORTS STATING THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING MULTIPLE TIMES AND MAKES THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. MY VEHICLE IS USED FOR WORK AND DRIVEN ALL DAY ON THE FREEWAY. I'VE ALSO READ THAT THERE ARE NO WARNING SIGNS AND THEN IT'S BLOWN OUT AND UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN UNTIL FIXED. I WORRY ABOUT DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ALL AS I DON'T WANT IT STALLING ON THE HIGHWAY OR ANYWHERE ELSE. I WORRY IT WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT I CAN'T PREVENT AS THE VEHICLE MAY JUST SUDDENLY STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. BEEN A REOCCURRING ISSUE FOR MYSELF FOR ABOUT A MONTH OR TWO.

Summary

TRIED TO START MY JEEP IT WOULDN'T START. I USED THE PUSH BUTTON. I WAITED A FEW HRS AND TRIED AGAIN. SAME ISSUE. TRIED MY REMOTE START. STARTED UP. NEXT DAY USED THE PUSH START, STARTED UP NO PROBLEM, ON THE HIGHWAY (95) THE TRUCK WAS HESITATING WHEN GOING UP AN INCLINE. NEXT DAY PUSH START WON'T WORK, THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER AS USUAL BUT WOULDN'T START. REMOTE START AND IT STARTED UP. SON TOOK IT AND PUT IT ON THE DIAGNOSIS MACHINE AND SAID THERE WEREN'T ANY CODES. RESEARCHING A HARD STARTING PROBLEM I'VE READ TONS OF POSTS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED. I CALLED THE DEALER TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. ASKED COULD IT POSSIBLY BE THE SAME ISSUE THAT MY TRUCK WAS RE CALLED ON ALREADY. HE SAID MIGHT BE R09 FUEL RELAY RECALL, TIMP PROBLEM, (RECALL WAS A TEMPORARY SOLUTION TO INSTALL A FUEL PUMP HARNESS BYPASS SO THAT THE FUEL PUMP TURNS OFF) BUT THAT IF IT IS, THE DEALER SAID THEY ALREADY REPLACED THAT AND WILL NOT DO AGAIN UNLESS IT IS PD FOR, AFTER THEY PUT THE JEEP ON THEIR DIAGNOSIS MACHINE AT $175.00 PER HR. SO AFTER THEY COMPLETED THE 9TH RECALL I PICK UP MY JEEP WITH HOPES THAT I COULD DO MORE RESEARCH. I ALSO CALLED JEEP. THE LADY WAS VERY NICE BUT THEY WILL DO NOTHING EXCEPT ADD MY COMPLAINT TO THEIR SYSTEM. I FOUND OUT THAT MANY PEOPLE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AS I DO! JEEP/CHRYSLER HAVE PUT FAULTY TIMP IN THESE CARS AND DO NOT WANT TO PUT A RECALL OUT ON THEM. MANY CARS WITH MY MODEL HAVE HAD THE SAME COMPLAINTS. THE FAULTY TIMP HAS THE FUEL PUMP RUNNING CONSTANTLY WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY IT RUNS WHEN THE CAR IS OFF. NOW IF I 'TRY' TO START THE VEHICLE IT SMELLS LIKE SOMETHING IS BURNING. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM I FOUND THE ISSUE TO BE A TIMP PROBLEM AND NOW AM AWARE THAT I AM NOT ALONE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT MORE JEEP OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

WHILE I WAS WIPING DOWN THE DRIVER SIDE ACTIVE-HEADREST IT DEPLOYED ON IT'S OWN AS IF THE VEHICLE WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR WAS OFF AND PARKED ON MY DRIVEWAY WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK, I WAS CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE CAR WHEN IT HAPPENED. THE PART IN QUESTION IS THE DRIVER SIDE ACTIVE HEAD-REST. I WAS TOLD BY THE TECHNICIAN AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT HE HAD SEEN 5 OF THESE AND IT HAPPENED BECAUSE THE PLASTIC CLIP THAT HOLDS THE HEADREST IN PLACE HAD DETERIORATED AND BROKE. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR THIS AND TO CALL FCA TO FILE A CLAIM TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR WHICH I DID. FCA TOLD ME IF I FIXED IT BEFORE THEY LOOK AT IT THEY WON'T PAY FOR THE REPAIR. FCA INFORMED ME THAT SOMEONE WOULD CALL ME TO SET UP A TIME AND LOCATION TO LOOK AT MY CAR IN 2 TO 4 WEEKS. IN THE MEANTIME THEY SAID TO DRIVE IT AS IS WITH NO CONCERN FOR MY SAFETY. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND IF IT HAD HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED.

Summary

MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE'S ALTERNATOR DIED. THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE PULLING INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND THE NEXT MORNING THE JEEP WAS DEAD. IT IS COVERED UNDER THE T36 RECALL. THE PCM WENT AS WELL AND IS SUPPOSEDLY ALSO COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. HOWEVER, THE BATTERY WAS ALSO DAMAGED AND DESTROYED. THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE. THE DEALER, BOB MARIANO JEEP DEALER, AT 146 MANCHESTER ST, CONCORD, NH 03301 TELLS ME THAT I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING THE BATTERY. THIS COST SHOULD NOT BE PLACED ON THE CUSTOMER. THE BATTERY SHOULD BE PAID FOR BY THE DEALER. THE BATTERY WAS DAMAGED BECAUSE OF THE FAULTY ALTERNATOR, SO WAS THE PCM WHICH IS BEING COVERED. THE SHORT CIRCUIT THAT OCCURRED IN THE ALTERNATOR CAUSED BOTH THE BATTERY AND PCM TO DIE. SO WHY SHOULD I PAY FOR A NEW BATTERY? THE DEALER IS GOING TO CHARGE ME $332.50 FOR THE BATTERY PLUS $119.90 TO INSTALL THE BATTERY. THE SAME MOPAR BATTERY GOES FOR APPROXIMATELY $230.00. AGAIN, THE DIFFERENCE IN PRICE IS APPALLING.

THE PANELING WHICH IS IN LAYED ON THE DOORS AND THE FRONT DASH ARE PEELING. THESE PIECES ARE SHARP. AS THEY PEEL PASSENGERS, INCLUDING CHILDREN CAN CUT THEMSELVES. MY OWN CHILD RECEIVED AN INJURY FROM ONE OF THESE PIECES. JEEP SENT A RECALL LETTER TO MY ADDRESS, ADVISING ME TO GO TO ANY JEEP DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE ISSUE FIXED. THE CROWN CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE ON 6350 PERIMETER LOOP DRIVE ACCEPTED THE REPAIR ON 2 OCCASIONS BUT NEVER REPAIRED THE ISSUE. THERE WAS NO FOLLOW UP OR REASON GIVEN FOR NOT COMPLETING THE REPAIR, EVEN AFTER KEEPING MY VEHICLE FOR 3 DAYS. BUT ITS NOT AN OFFICIAL RECALL. I THINK JEEP SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING OBVIOUS INTERIOR DAMAGE AND ESPECIALLY THAT THAT COULD INJURE PASSENGERS.

I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS RECALL, I WANT TO BE CONTACTED IN REGARDS TO THIS FAULTY PART THAT ALMOST CAUGHT MY JEEP ON FIRE. I FEEL THIS PART SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE JEEP WAS RUNNING STATIONARY WHEN IT STARTED WHISTLING AND MAKING A BAD NOICE. ONCE I STARTED TO DRIVE IT TO AUTO ZONE IT GOT WORSE AND STARTED SMOKING, MAKING A LOUD WHISTLING SOUND AND CHOKING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO DIE. WHEN I PULLED INTO AUTO ZONE IT WAS SMOKING BAD, SMELT ELECTRIC BURNING AND IT WAS ALL COMING FROM THE ALTERNATOR. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED 60 MILES BACK HOME AND ANOTHER 12 MILES TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT NEXT MONDAY MORNING BECAUSE THIS HAPPENED ON A SUNDAY WHEN EVERYTHING WAS CLOSED. IF IT'S A RECALL I WANT IT REPLACED, TOW PAID FOR AND THE TIME IT'S BEEN OUT OF COMMISSION.

Summary

VEHICLE WAS STARTED AND TRANSMISSION PLACED IN DRIVE, THEN DRIVEN ONTO A CITY STREET ACCOMPANIED BY AN UNUSUAL WHINING NOISE, LURCHING, AND IMPAIRED ACCELERATION. VEHICLE WAS LIMPED INTO A PARKING LOT, PLACED IN PARK AND SHUT OFF AGAIN, AFTER WHICH IT WOULD NO LONGER CRANK. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP WHERE INITIALLY THE STARTER WAS REPLACED. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE TECHNICIAN REPORTED SPARKS AND A STRONG BURNING SMELL FROM THE ALTERNATOR, WHICH HE DECLARED UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE ALTERNATOR WAS THEN REPLACED, AFTER WHICH THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE OR PCM WAS ALSO FOUND TO HAVE FAILED AND WAS REPLACED. THE PRIMARY CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM HERE IS UNCLEAR, BUT THE SAFETY CONCERN STEMS FROM THE SHORTING ALTERNATOR MAKING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. IT SEEMS LIKELY THAT HAD THE DRIVER BEEN UNABLE TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER, THE VEHICLE COULD HAVE CAUGHT FIRE AND/OR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN IN TRAFFIC. AS OTHER, SIMILAR VEHICLES FROM THIS MANUFACTURER HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR WEAK ALTERNATOR DIODES FAILING CATASTROPHICALLY (P60 / NHTSA 14V-634), IT SEEMS REASONABLE TO INVESTIGATE WHETHER THIS HAZARD EXISTS IN THIS AND OTHER SIMILAR VEHICLES ALSO.

Summary

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON INTERMITTENTLY THE LAST 5 MONTHS. TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND AUTO ZONE FOR A CODE READER A FEW TIMES AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO PINPOINT THE EXACT PROBLEM BECAUSE THE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD DISAPPEAR OR MULTIPLE CODES WOULD APPEAR. THE VEHICLE WOULD AT TIMES SEEM TO LOSE POWER ESPECIALLY GOING UP HILL WHETHER IT WAS ON A CITY STREET OR HIGHWAY. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO GET A TRUE DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE ON 6/15/19 WHEN THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL SHOWING ON MY DASHBOARD. THEY CODE READER GAVE P0128 SO I ENDED UP HAVING TO GET MY THERMOSTAT GAUGE REPLACED AND TOTAL REPAIRS WITH DIAGNOSTIC WERE $309.15. I FOUND IT FRUSTRATING AND UNSAFE THAT FOR 5 MONTHS THE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD INTERMITTENTLY APPEAR. AFTER A TRIP OUT OF TOWN AND DROVE A TOTAL OF CLOSE TO 1200 MILES, THE LIGHT STAYED ON. AT THIS POINT, IT IS WHEN I DECIDED TO TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP BEFORE THE ENGINE LIGHT DISAPPEARED. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE SEATBELT WARNING LIGHT WOULD NOT ALWAYS ALERT IF A PASSENGER DID NOT HAVE THEIRS ON. I TRIED TO GO BACK AND SELECT THE SEATBELT PROBLEM SELECTION, BUT IT WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO.

I HAVE BEEN SINCE 2017 (SEPTEMBER) WITH A SITUATION OF A RECALL T36, THE SITUATION WAS RESOLVED TEMPORARILY (SEE ANNEXES INCLUDED). I WAS THEN ASSIGNED TO A CONSULTANT MR. LUCAS FIGUEROA, WORK MY CASE AND CLEARLY INDICATED THROUGH EMAILS (I HAVE ALL THE EVIDENCE) THAT THE ALTERNATOR (BY THEN 2017) WAS NOT AVAILABLE ANYWHERE, TRIANGLE DEALER DEL OESTE WAS INSTALLED A PIECE THAT WAS NOT THE RECALL WHILE THE PIECE WAS AVAILABLE. I MUST CLARIFY THAT THIS SITUATION OCCURRED ON SEPTEMBER 8, 2017 AND I WAS DELIVERED MY BUS ON NOVEMBER 9, 2017. YOU CAN REFER TO CASE #11039953 ASSIGNED BY NHTSA. I AM DEMANDING TO HAVE THE T36 RECALL PART INSTALLED. IT CLEARLY INDICATES IN THE COMMUNICATIONS THAT IT IS A TEMPORARY REMEDY. AND EVEN MORE, I WAS TOLD THAT WHEN THE PART WAS AVAILABLE OR MANUFACTURED THEM (AN FCA OFFICER) WOULD CALL ME TO LET ME KNOW THAT I COULD PASS TO INSTALL THE SAME. I NEVER GOT THE CALL. I NEED THIS CASE HANDLED WITH THE SERIOUSNESS IT DESERVES. RECALL DEALER T59 (WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE) I EXPLAIN ABOUT THE RECALL PENDING THE T36 (ALTERNATOR) AND I AM NOTIFIED THAT THE ALTERNATOR IS ALREADY INSTALLED.

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ONE NIGHT MY JEEP STARTED MAKING A WHINING SOUND. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE HEATER SINCE IT WAS 12 DEGREES OUTSIDE THAT NIGHT. I LEAVE FOR WORK, GET ABOUT 6 MILES DOWN THE ROAD AND MY JEEP STARTS FAILING. WARNING LIGHTS, BATTERY, TRACTION CONTROL, WIPERS SLOWLY GO ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD, LIGHTS DIMMING. I GOT TO A SAFE SPOT TO PULL OVER BUT IN THE PROCESS OF STOPPING MY VEHICLE LOST ALL FUNCTIONALOTY (NO BREAKS, POWER STEERING, LIGHTS, ALL ELECTRONICS GONE) AND COULDNT STOP. IT FINALLY STOPS AND I'M LEFT WITH A COMPLETELY DEAD VEHICLE. 12AM IN FREEZING WEATHER WHILE 5 MONTHS PREGNANT. WHEN MY BOYFRIEND ARRIVED TO GET ME, HE NOTICED A STRONG BURNING SMELL COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. AT THIS TIME THE VEHICLE HAD SAT BARELY OUT OF THE ROAD IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT WITH NO HAZARDS POSSIBLE TO ALLOW OTHER DRIVERS TO SEE ME. WE FIND OUT THAT THERE IS AN ALTERNATOR RECALL ON MY JEEP AND TAKE IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AS SOON AS SCHEDULING ALLOWED. BEFORE ALTERNATOR BLEW MY JEEP HAD ZERO ISSUES. THEY HAD MY VEHICLE FOR 4 DAYS AND CALLED TO SAY MY JEEP WAS FIXED (NO LOANER CAR OFFERED). I GO UP THE NEXT DAY, THEY REPLACED THE PCM AND ALTERNATOR, THEY SAY NOTHING ELSE. I GO TO START MY JEEP AND IT CRANKS FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS AND STARTS. NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. I GO BACK INSIDE TO THE DEALER WHO HAS SAID NOTHING THE LAST 2 DAYS ABOUT MY VEHICLE NOT RUNNING PROPERLY AND THEY TELL ME IT IS MY CRANK SHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. AND THEY SAID THEY COULDNT PROMISE THE CAR WOULD MAKE IT HOME AND IT WAS MY PROBLEM. UNHAPPY WITH RESULTS WE CALL CHRYSLER AND THEY TELL THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX THAT. IT DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEMS CONTINUE AND CHRYSLER IS NO LONGER WILLING TO FIX OBVIOUS DAMAGE FROM THEIR ALTERNATOR FAILURE FRYING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE DEALERSHIP ALSO TOLD ME TO FILE A "FAKE" FIRE CLAIM ON MY INSURANCE. STILL UNRESOLVED.

Summary

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR IN THE CITY, I EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN ENGINE SHUTDOWN, AND ENTIRELY LOST CONTROL OVER THE CAR (STEERING, BREAKS ETC.) THE CAR WAS TOWED TO CHRYSLER'S CERTIFIED GARAGE, WHERE THE MALFUNCTION WAS IDENTIFIED AS A FAILURE OF THE FUEL PUMP RELAY (THE SAME RELAY WHICH WAS ALREADY BEEN REPLACED, AS PART OF RECALL R09). THE GARAGE ALSO RE-CONFIRMED THAT THIS RELAY HAS BEEN REPLACED UNDER THE RECALL, IN 2015. THE MEANING OF THIS FAILURE DEMONSTRATES THAT PRACTICALLY, REPLACING THE UNIT UNDER RECALL R09 HAS NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM AND THE RISK IS STILL THERE! I HAVE REPORTED THIS INCIDENT TO FCA IN EUROPE, AND WAS RESPONDED THAT THIS FAILURE "COULD HAPPEN IN 5 YEARS OLD CAR" AND THEREFORE, THERE IS NO SAFETY ISSUE THAT REQUIRES THEM TO WARN OTHER OWNERS. HOWEVER, I HAVE FOUND ON-LINE LOTS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, MOST OF THEM IN THE US, INDICATING THAT THE FAILURE OF THE REPLACED FUEL RELAY IS COMMON, AND THAT FCA DO NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. SEE THE LINK BELOW: HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/JEEP/GRANDCHEROKEE/OTHER-FUEL-SYSTEM-PUMP-PROBLEMS.PHP I WOULD LIKE TO EMPHASIZE THAT R09 (NHTSA SAFETY ISSUED ID #15V115 HTTPS://WWW.NHTSA.GOV/RECALLS?NHTSAID=15V115#RECALLS360) REFERS TO 5 YEARS OLD CARS, AND THE FAILURE THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH THE SAME REPLACED FUEL RELAY, HAD OCCURRED ONLY 3 YEARS LATER, AND THEREFORE, FCA RESPONSE IS IRRATIONAL AND WRONG. SINCE THE EVENT I AVOID DRIVING THIS CAR WITH MY FAMILY NOR DO I LET MY CHILDREN DRIVE IT. I SIMPLY DON'T TRUST THE CAR ANYMORE. PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT I LIVE IN ISRAEL AND HAVE AN OFFICE IN FLORIDA.

Summary

I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON THE STREET, TURNING THE CORNER AT AN INTERSECTION, THE ENGINE LOST ALL POWER, TURNED OFF, AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE POWER STEERING AND VEHICLE IN GENERAL. I ALMOST HIT A PEDESTRIAN THAT WAS WALKING ON THE SIDEWALK. THIS WAS A CITY STREET, THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, AND I WAS TURNING LEFT. I HAVE CALLED THE JEEP DEALERSHIP REPEATEDLY TELLING THEM ABOUT THIS SYMPTOM OF MY VEHICLE. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE NOT STARTING WHEN TRY TO TURN IT ON, THE ENGINE WILL TURN OVER REPEATEDLY BUT NOT FIRE UP. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, IT SOMETIMES WILL START. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE. OTHER TIMES I NEED TO CALL A TOW TRUCK. I FEEL THIS IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO RECALL R09, EVEN THOUGH THIS RECALL WAS PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE, THESE ARE THE SAME SYMPTOMS DESCRIBED, SO I THINK THE PROBLEM IS BACK EVEN AFTER THE RECALL. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY CHRYSLER/JEEP. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AT RIVER OAKS JEEP/CHRYSLER ON 4807 KIRBY DRIVE IN HOUSTON TX, 77098, AND PAID FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. THEY INITIALLY WERE NOT ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. AFTER A COUPLE DAYS THEY SAID THE FUEL PUMP WAS NOT HOLDING PRESSURE AND WOULD COST $2000 TO REPLACE. I CAN NOT AFFORD THAT RIGHT NOW, AND I DECLINED REPAIRS. I CALLED THE HEADQUARTERS FOR CHRYSLER/JEEP DEALERSHIP AND ASKED FOR THEM TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A MALFUNCTIONING PART RELATED TO A RECALL, AND THEY REFUSED. THIS IS DOCUMENTED UNDER CASE #34923344. I FEEL CHRYSLER JEEP SHOULD EITHER REPLACE MY FUEL PUMP RELAY AGAIN, EVEN AFTER IT WAS ALREADY DONE ONCE UNDER RECALL R09, OR THEY SHOULD PAY TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE FUEL PUMP, AS THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM WITH 100% CERTAINTY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE RELATED TO THE ENGINEERING OF THEIR VEHICLES.

PLEASE REFERENCE MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINT 11114071 AND 11114079 FOR EXACT DATES OF FAILURE FOR JULY 2018. THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY FUEL PUMPS WERE BOTH REPLACED AND THE JEEP WAS RETURNED TO ME ON 8/4/18. I DROVE IT ON 8/5/18 ONCE AND THEN TWICE IN THE MORNING ON 8/6/18. IT SAT IN THE PARKING LOT AT MY WORK FROM 8:30 TO 12:30 PM ON 08/6/18. AT 12:30 PM, THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS OF STARTING FAILURE WERE HAPPENING. IT STARTED WITH TURNOVER THEN IMMEDIATELY DIED. THEN TURNED ON AFTER A 2ND ATTEMPT. THEN AT THE RESTAURANT I WENT TO AT APPROXIMATELY 12: 55 PM, THE JEEP COMPLETELY FAILED TO START. I HAVE VIDEO RECORDING OF THE FAILURE AND CAN PRODUCE THAT FOR REFERENCE. THE VEHICLE IS NOT STARTING AND STAYING ON CONSISTENTLY. THE START RESULTS IN IMMEDIATELY DYING AND THEN AFTER A COUPLE ATTEMPTS LIKE THAT, IT EVENTUALLY IT JUST CRANKS AND CRANKS UNTIL YOU SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE. IT'S BEING TOWED A SECOND TIME TO THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT. ADDITIONALLY, A DOME LIGHT IN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T SHUT OFF SINCE IT WAS RETURNED TO ME ON 8/4/18. IT WAS NEVER A PROBLEM BEFORE 8/4/18. THIS IS A TIPM PROBLEM AND IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. THE 3RD PICTURE I'VE UPLOADED IS A SCREEN SHOT FROM THE VIDEO I HAVE OF THE VEHICLE NOT STARTING BUT CRANKING AND CRANKING. THE OTHER TWO ARE CAPTIONED. I HAVE THIS VIDEO AND CAN SEND IT.

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED FOR MY 17 YEAR OLD SON APPROXIMATELY 4 MONTHS AGO. ON 7/20/18 THE VEHICLE DIED AS HE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. AFTER TESTING THE BATTERY, WE PAID TO REPLACE IT, BUT THE NEW BATTERY WAS ONLY GETTING ABOUT 11V WITH THE CAR RUNNING. THEREFORE, WE PAID FOR A NEW ALTERNATOR AND HAVE DISCOVERED THE ISSUE STILL CONTINUES. AFTER RESEARCHING, WE DISCOVERED THE RECALL FROM JULY 2017, MANY MONTHS PRIOR TO OUR PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. I HAVE CALLED LANDERS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE IN BENTON, AR TO SCHEDULE THE SERVICE FOR THE RECALL. THE FIRST APPOINTMENT AVAILABLE IS AUGUST 23RD. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. FIRST, WE ARE FORTUNATE THAT OUR SON WASN'T HURT WHEN THE VEHICLE DIED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. SECONDLY, WE HAVE SPENT APPROXIMATELY $650 FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS AND STILL CAN'T DRIVE THE VEHICLE. LASTLY, HAVING TO WAIT ALMOST A MONTH FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR THE RECALL ISSUE IS RIDICULOUS. IT IS UNREASONABLE TO THINK SOMEONE CAN DO WITHOUT A VEHICLE FOR A MONTH, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE ISSUE IS NO FAULT OF OURS.

ON JULY 16TH, 2018 VEHICLE CRANKED WITHOUT TURNOVER MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE AM, EVENTUALLY STARTING. ON JULY 17TH, 2018 IT STARTED IN THE AM BUT IN THE EVENING, CRANKED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NO TURNOVER AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. ON JULY 18TH, I WENT BACK TO WHERE THE CAR WAS LEFT THE EVENING BEFORE TO ATTEMPT STARTING AGAIN. IT WAS CRANKING WITHOUT STARTING MULTIPLE TIMES THAT DAY AND NEVER STARTED. HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE ON JULY 19TH. SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACED THE PRIMARY FUEL PUMP ON JULY 23RD, 2018 AFTER PARTS CAME IN. I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE ON THE EVENING OF JULY 23RD, 2018. APPROXIMATELY 6 HOURS AFTER GETTING THE VEHICLE, IT CRANKED FOR AT LEAST 10 SECONDS, TWICE, THEN STARTED. AND THE FOLLOWING EVENING APPROXIMATELY 5 PM, JULY 24TH, 2018, IT STARTED AND RAN FOR ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS AND DIED.

THE DEALER CLAIMS IT CRANKED ON JULY 25, 2018 IN THE MORNING AND THEN CONTINUED TO START THROUGHOUT THE DAY. I AM GOING TO GO BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO REQUEST THE OTHER FUEL PUMP GET TESTED. I AM VERY AWARE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE RECALLS ON THIS MODEL'S FUEL PUMP SYSTEM. RECALLS 14V-530 AND 15V-115 DO NOT INCLUDE MY VIN NUMBER AND SHOULD BECAUSE IT WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THE DATES OF . AND FURTHER, THE CENTER FOR AUTO SAFETY'S PETITION AGAINST THE NHTSA DATED ON JULY 15, 2015 (80 FR 45578) (DOCUMENT NUMBER 2015-18672) AGAINST CHRYSLER FOR THE TIPM FAILURE SHOULD BE RECONSIDERED!!

SO MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINT WITH FUEL PUMP FAILURE AND CRANKING IS A PERSISTENT AND UNACCEPTABLE ISSUE THAT IS DEDUCTIVELY REASONED TO BE DUE TO TIPM FAILURE.

THE ACTIVE HEADREST RESTRAINT INSIDE THE DRIVER'S SEAT DEPLOYED DUE TO PLASTIC CLIPS INSIDE BREAKING FOR NO REASON. DEPLOYED WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS, HIT DRIVER IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD, STARTLING DRIVER AND NEARLY CAUSING ACCIDENT. THIS IS A WELL-KNOWN ISSUE, DOCUMENTED BY HUNDREDS OF OTHER OWNERS OF GRAND CHEROKEE, YET CHRYSLER/JEEP HAS DONE NOTHING TO REMEDY THIS OR RECALL THE FAULTY PRODUCT. HAVING THE DEPLOYED HEADREST MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, AND THERE IS NO WAY TO "RESET" IT, SINCE THE INTERNAL PLASTIC PIECES ARE BROKEN. THIS IS AN ON-GOING SAFETY ISSUE, AS PART OF THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY SYSTEM NOW DOES NOT FUNCTION. ALSO, I AM WORRIED THAT THE OTHER SEAT'S RESTRAINT WILL DEPLOY AT ANY TIME.

THEY INFORMED ME THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO DO THE LAST RECALL FOR THE SUN VISOR. IT HAS BEEN 3 MONTHS SINCE THEY DID THE RECALLS AND ORDER PARTS FROM THE SUPPLIER FOR THE LAST RECALL AND STILL NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE FOR THAT RECALL.

THE RECALL STATES THAT THE VEHICLE COULD HAVE AN ELECTRICAL FIRE FROM THE RECALL AND THIS WORRIES MYSELF AND MY WIFE.

Summary

AFTER RECENTLY PURCHASING MY JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2013, I NOTICED ISSUES I DIDN'T HAVE IN REGARDS TO THE POWER TRAIN AND HOW IT ACTED COMPARED TO MY PREVIOUS JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2002. I FREQUENTLY HAVE INSTANCES AT SLOW, MEDIUM AND INTERSTATE SPEEDS WHERE THE RPMS JUMP FROM THE STEADY 2,000 UP TO LIKE 3,000 BRIEFLY, BEFORE QUICKLY DROPPING BACK DOWN. THIS RESULTS IN AND UNEXPECTED AND SUNDOWN JOLT/JERK. EVEN MORE SO, I'VE BEEN SEEING MORE SERIOUS AND RELATED ISSUES WHERE IT RUNS AT 3,500/4,000 RPMS WHILE NOT ACCELERATING. SEEMS SLOW AND SLUGGISH. ONLY A STOP AND RESTARTING OF THE VEHICLE WILL FIX THIS ISSUE. FINALLY, THIS LEADS TO THE MAJOR ISSUE, STILL RELATED TO THE SAME TREND OF PROBLEMS. I WILL HAVE TIMES WHEN I'M ACCELERATING OR JUST CRUISING AND I LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE RPMS WILL SPIKE DRASTICALLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY FROM AROUND 2,000 AVERAGE TO 6K-7K RPMS. I LOSE ALL ACCELERATION CONTROL WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THE FEW TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL TURN ON. NATURALLY LETTING OFF THE ACCELERATOR BRINGS IT BACK DOWN SLOWLY, BUT IN THESE INSTANCES I'M ON THE ROAD AND MOVING WITH TRAFFIC. I LOSE ALL ACCELERATOR CONTROL AND CANNOT ACCELERATE WITH ANY EFFECT. THE ENGINE REVS SHARPLY AND LOUDLY WITH NO ACCELERATING MOVEMENT OR RESPONSE. ONLY OPTION IS TO BREAK.. THANKSFULLY THOSE WORK.. AND COME TO A STOP WHERE SHUTTING THE CAR ON AND OFF SEEMS TO BE THE ONLY TEMPORARY FIX. UPON TURNING IT BACK ON, THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL REMAIN AND TYPICALLY DOES FOR A DAY OR SO AND THEN TURNS OFF. VERY DANGEROUS AND SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING, WHILE UNPREDICTABLE AND INFREQUENT, BUT NOT COMPLETELY AS THIS HAPPENS EVERY WEEK AND A HALF OR SO,.. IT SOUNDS LIKE A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT THAT ISN'T BEING ADDRESSS THROUGH RECALLS, REPAIRS OR EVEN WHEN COMPLAINTS ARE MADE. THESE ISSUES NEED TO BE ADDRESSED AS THEY POSE A THREAT TO NOT ONLY MY SAFETY, BUT OTHERS AS WELL.

I HAD TO LEAVE WITH THE CAR IN THE SAME CONDITION I BROUGHT IT IN. I CANNOT AFFORD TO LOOSE ANY MORE WORK AND THEY TELL ME THEY DON'T GIVE LOANER CARS FOR RECALLS. I WILL NEVER BUY A JEEP AGAIN. THEIR DEALERS ARE VERY UNRELIABLE AND DON'T HONOR THEIR SERVICE APPOINTMENTS EVEN WHEN YOU ARE WAITING 3 HOURS FOR THE CAR. MY VEHICLE'S RECALLS ARE A SAFETY CONCERN.

REALIZING THERE WAS NO WAY TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL, MY ONLY OPTION WAS TO TRY TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN BY PRESSING AS HARD AS POSSIBLE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL WHILE THE ENGINE WAS ATTEMPTING TO CONTINUE TO ACCELERATE. THIS WAS MODERATELY SUCCESSFUL AND ALLOWED ME TO REDUCE THE SPEED TO A MANAGEABLE SPEED TO LANE CHANGE TO THE EMERGENCY LANE. ONCE THERE I USED BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL WHERE I WAS ABLE TO ALMOST STOP THE CAR WHILE THE ENGINE RACED. IT WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF BECAUSE IT WAS STILL IN GEAR SO I THREW THE CAR INTO PARK AND PUSHED THE OFF BUTTON. THE CAR SHUT OFF AND I WAS SAFELY STOPPED ALONGSIDE THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE SINCE BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR BUT HAVE NOT ATTEMPTED TO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL. I HAVE SCHEDULED IT TO BE SERVICED AND WILL HOPEFULLY GET SOME SORT OF DATA FROM THE CAR AS TO THE MALFUNCTION. ## VIN PASSED ## JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2013 ## *TT *AS *JS *DT*JB

AFTER BEING TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT WOULD COST ME $1349.36 TO REPLACE THE FAULTY TIPM. NUMEROUS RESEARCH INTO THIS PROBLEM REVEALS MANY SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THE TIPM FROM JEEP WHICH COULD LIKELY TO RESULT IN SERIOUS SAFETY RELATED PROBLEMS NOT TO MENTION VERY COSTLY REPAIRS.

HI ON SEPTEMBER 8, 2017, WHILE DRIVING MY BUS QUIETLY, I FEEL A STRANGE NOISE IN MY BUS JEEP, SUDDENLY WARMED UP, THEY TURNED ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE PANEL AND WENT OUT , WE CALLED THE SERVICE OF CRANE, TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TRIANGLE IN MAYAGUEZ, P.R. WHEN I GO TO THE DEALER, THEY NOTIFY ME THAT MY JEEP HAS AN ALTERNATOR RECALL (WHICH I NEVER RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION, SINCE THE DEALER HAS MY WRONG ADDRESS IN HIS RECORD). THE DEALER NOTIFIES ME THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PIECE IN THE WAREHOUSE AND THAT THEY HAVE TO ORDER IN FLORIDA AND THAT IT WILL TAKE MAYBE TWO WEEKS. MY HUSBAND, MR. HECTOR CABAN SEEING THAT THIS SITUATION WAS GOING TO BECOME A LITTLE DIFFICULT DECIDED TO RENT A A CAR AT ALLIED CAR. WE PAID $656.70 IN CAR RENTAL. THE DEALER PROMISED TO GIVE ME A CAR AND AT THIS MOMENT OCTOBER 26, 2017 NOTHING HAPPENS. CURRENTLY, I AM RESIDENT OF PUERTO RICO AND IN THIS PROCESS HURRACAINE MARIA ARRIVES IN PUERTO RICO ON SEPTEMBER 20, 2017. ACTUALLY THE DEALER INFORM TO ME THAT THEY HAVE NO LIGHTS NO SYSTEM AND THEY CANNOT FIX MY BUS PROMPTLY. ACTUALLY THEY INFORM TO ME THAT MY ALTERNATOR ARE IN THE DOCKS IN SAN JUAN, PR AND THESE TRUCKS ARE CONFISCATED BY FEMA, SINCE THE PRIORITY IS TO TAKE THE TRUCKS WITH FOOD AND WATER TO DISTRIBUTE TO THE VICTIMS OF HURRACAINE MARIA. I NEED TO RESOLVE THIS SITUATION, AND THE DEALER HAS TAKEN TOO LONG TO RESOLVE THIS, THEY ARE VERY NEGLIGENT AND NOT AT ALL EMPATHIC WITH THIS. THIS RECALL WAS IN JUNE, WHY I WAS NEVER WARNED, THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF I HAD BEEN CONTACTED VIA CELL PHONE OR EMAIL. THIS SITUATION WOULD NOT HAVE COME SO FAR, IF THEY HAD BEEN EFFICIENT. IN THE MIDST OF THIS CATASTROPHE I FIND MY HANDS TIED, FRUSTRATED AND I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. THE TRIANGLE DEALER IN MAYAGUEZ AND HIS MANAGER MR. ISMAEL MEDINA HAS MADE NO EFFORT TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE, HIS CUSTOMER SERVICE IS TERRIBLE.

Summary

WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON A BUSY 4 LANE HIGHWAY MY ALTERNATOR FAILED, RESULTING IN THE ENGINE STALLING. I HAD NO STEERING, NO BRAKES, NO CONTROL OVER THE CAR WHATSOEVER. FORTUNATELY I WAS GOING UP A HILL AND THE CAR CAME TO A STOP WITHOUT ANYONE BEING INJURED! I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE DEALER IS SAYING THAT RECALL P60 - WHICH COVERS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR - DOES NOT COVER MY CAR BECAUSE I HAVE A 180 AMP ALTERNATOR INSTEAD OF A 160 AMP, WHICH IS COVERED BY THE RECALL. HOW CAN CHRYSLER GROUP LIMIT THE RECALL BY THE AMPS WHEN CLEARLY THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO WITH MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE??

BOUGHT MY CAR FROM PARKS FORD OF WESLEY CHAPEL ON 7/16/17. 2 DAYS LATER, THE CAR HAD TROUBLE STARTING.MY MECHANIC LOOKED IT OVER. IT HAD A POWER STEERING RACK LEAK AND EMBEDDED DIRT UNDERNEATH ITS CARRIER. BROUGHT CAR BACK TO FORD. THEY FOUND NOTHING. CALLED AGAIN BECAUSE OF SAME PROBLEM. WAS TOLD BY MANAGER DUBER TO TRY LOCKING AND UNLOCKING CAR TO ENGAGE STARTER. DID NOT WORK. BROUGHT TO JEEP. THEY FOUND THAT A RECALL ON THE RELAY TO THE FUEL PUMP WAS NEVER FIXED. THEY ALSO SAID THE FRONT SHOCKS WERE BLOWN AND LEAKING AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. WARRANTY COMPANY SAID THAT CAR HAD PREEXISTING CONDITIONS AND SHOULD HAVE NEVER LEFT THE DEALERSHIP. THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT. THIS GREAT PRICE WAS FALSE REPRESENTATION AND MISLEADING. I NEVER WOULD HAVE BOUGHT THE CAR KNOWING IT NEEDED ALL OF THIS WORK.

Summary

MY JEEP HAD THE FUEL PUMP RELAY CHANGED TO AN EXTERNAL TYPE AS PART OF PREVIOUS RECALL NHTSA 15V-115. I'M NOT SURE OF THE DATE AS IT WAS DONE PRIOR TO US BUYING THE VEHICLE. THE NEW EXTERNAL RELAY STARTED TO FAIL IN JULY 2017. IN HEAT SOAKED CONDITIONS, THE RELAY WOULD FAIL TO ACTIVATE. THE ONLY TIME THIS OCCURRED WAS DURING ENGINE START WHILE BEING STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT. THE ENGINE WOULD START THEN STALL WITHIN FIVE SECONDS. I REPLACED THE RELAY AND TESTED THE OLD ONE. WHEN THE OLD RELAY IS WARM, I VERIFIED THAT IT DOESN'T ACTIVATE 100% OF THE TIME. THE RELAY PART NUMBER IS G8JN-1C6T-F-R-DC12. WE NEVER HAD A FAILURE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. I'M SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT SO NHTSA HAS AWARENESS OF THE RELAY THAT WAS INSTALLED. IT IS NOT A ROBUST RELAY WHICH MAY HAVE OTHER FAILURE MODES.

Summary

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND SUDDENLY I WAS HIT IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I WAS HIT BY ANOTHER CAR BUT I LOOKED AROUND AND THERE WAS NO CARS AROUND. I PULLED OVER AND LOOKED AT MY HEADREST AND IT EXPLODED AND HIT ME IN THE HEAD. I CALLED AND BROUGHT MY CAR IN TO JEEP WHO SAID IT WAS THE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT AND IT IS SET TO GO OFF DURING AN ACCIDENT. I TOLD THEM I WAS NOT IN ANY ACCIDENT. I THEN CALLED JEEP DIRECTLY WHO TOLD ME THEY WOULD INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE AND THAT I SHOULD LEAVE MY CAR AT JEEP. THAT WAS 3 WEEK AGO. ALL OF MY ATTEMPT TO CONTACT JEEP TO HAVE THEM RECTIFY THE ISSUE AND REPLACE MY HEADREST HAVE GONE NO WHERE. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY CALL BACKS AND EVERY TIME I CALL THEM THEY TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO EXCEPT WAIT UNTIL I AM CONTACTED BY JEEP. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AS I COULD HAVE RUN OFF THE ROAD AN CRASHED.

I BOUGHT THE CAR LESS THAN A YEAR AGO. THE CAR IS A 2013. THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT CHECKED. THEY INFORMED ME THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS SEEMS RIDICULOUS CONSIDEING THE CAR IS LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD. I ENDED UP HAIGB TO PAY OVER $300 FOR A NEW PASSENGER SEAT BELT INCLUDING INSTALLATION. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT? WHY IS SUCH A NEW SEAT BELT FAILING? SHOULD I WORRY THAT MY DRIVER'S SEAT BELT WILL FAIL AS WELL? IT DOESN'T SEEM THIS SHOULD BE HAPPENING ON SUCH A NEW CAR. I AM HAPPY TO PROVIDE REPAIR RECEIPTS AS REQUESTED.

Summary

MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT 76K MILES. SINCE AROUND 20K MILES, MY CAR HAS HAD ISSUES WITH STARTING THAT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY, SLOW/NO RESPONSE FROM PUSH BUTTON START, SLOW/NO RESPONSE WITH SMART ENTRY SYSTEM WHEN LOCKING/UNLOCKING DOORS. ALL OF THESE ISSUES ARE VERY INTERMITTENT. TO GO INTO MORE DETAIL ABOUT THE STARTING ISSUE, THE CAR WOULD START COMPLETELY, BUT THEN SHORTLY AFTER THE RPM WOULD DROP TO 0 AND THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WOULD STAY ON. WHEN TRYING TO PUSH THE START BUTTON AGAIN, IT WOULD TRY TO CRANK FOR 15 SECONDS. IT'S NECESSARY TO COMPLETELY POWER OFF THE CAR TO PROPERLY START THE CAR. SOMETIMES THE ISSUE PRESENTS ITSELF IMMEDIATELY AFTER. THESE ISSUES HAPPEN WITH BOTH KEY FOBS EVEN AFTER SWITCHING TO FRESH BATTERIES. I'VE TAKEN IT TO JEEP DEALERSHIP 4-5 TIMES WITH NO RESOLUTION. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP RELAY TWICE FOR ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE STARTING ISSUE. THEY WERE NEVER ABLE TO DUPLICATE OR NO CODES WOULD PRESENT THEMSELVES. I HAVE STRONG SUSPICION OF THE TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE) FAILING, WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY $1200 TO REPLACE. EVEN THOUGH I HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, JEEP WILL NOT REPLACE UNTIL DUPLICATED. I EVEN LEFT THE CAR AT JEEP FOR A WEEK ONE OF THOSE VISITS. THE ISSUES HAPPEN ALMOST EVERY OTHER DAY OR ON A VERY BAD WEEK, EVERY DAY THE CAR IS USED. JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE IS VERY POOR AND I'VE BEEN STUCK WITH THIS ISSUE FOR WAY TOO LONG. THE STARTING ISSUE EVEN HAPPENED TODAY, TWICE.

Summary

AFTER DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY FOR ABOUT 10 MINS, I WAS SLOWING DOWN DUE TO TRAFFIC AHEAD. WHEN I WENT TO APPLY THE BRAKES, THEY FELT HARD TO APPLY PRESSURE AND MY CAR WAS NOT SLOWING DOWN. I HAD TO DRIVE OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. AFTER I WAS ABLE TO COME TO A STOP, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE SLOWLY OFF THE HIGHWAY TO THE OFF RAMP I WAS NEAR AND TO A NEARBY DEALERSHIP. THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY BRAKE BOOSTER FAILED EVEN THOUGH I HAD THE BRAKE BOOSTER RECALL PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE PREVIOUSLY. SINCE I ALREADY HAD THE RECALL PERFORMED, THE REPLACEMENT OF THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS NOT COVERED. IF I NEVER HAD BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN FOR THE RECALL, THE REPLACEMENT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED. SEEMS WEIRD TO REWARD PEOPLE WHO DON'T BOTHER TO HAVE THE RECALLS PERFORMED ON THEIR VEHICLES. FROM THE LARGE NUMBER OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, IT SEEMS OBVIOUS THAT THE PREVIOUS RECALL DIDN'T FIX THE UNDERLYING ISSUE. LUCKILY THERE WAS AN OPEN OFF-ROAD AREA FOR ME TO SAFELY SWERVE ONTO TO PREVENT INJURY TO MYSELF AND THE CARS IN FRONT OF ME.

PUSH BUTTON IGNITION IS DEFECTIVE. THE FIRST YEAR I OWNED THE VEHICLE THE PUSH BUTTON IGNITION BEGAN TO SHOW PROBLEMS. INTERMITTENTLY THE KEY-FOB IS NOT RECOGNIZED BY THE CAR. SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL NOT START. BECAUSE OF THIS, SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT TURN OFF. SOMETIMES I HAVE STARTED THE VEHICLE AND AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN A BELL BEGINS RINGING AND MESSAGE APPEARS ON DASHBOARD THAT SAYS "KEY HAS LEFT THE VEHICLE". I HAVE TO TAP THE KEY-FOB ON THE BUTTON SEVERAL TIMES FOR IT TO FINALLY RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS PRESENT. I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERIES IN THE KEY-FOB OFTEN. FINALLY, LAST MONTH, I DECIDED TO HAVE THE JEEP DEALER REPLACED KEY-FOB AT COST OF $300. THREE WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING. JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT ADMITTED THEY REPLACE 2-3 KEY-FOBS A WEEK FOR CUSTOMERS. I SUSPECT THE PROBLEM IS WITH ELECTRONICS IN THE DASHBOARD.

NEXT DAY JEEP WOULD NOT START NOR WHERE THERE ANY LIGHTS ON DASH/OVERHEAD. LOOKED UP NHTSA AND REALIZED OTHERS HAD SIMILAR SITUATION WITH ALTERNATOR RECALL, ONLY TO FIND OUT MY JEEP WAS NOT COVERED EVEN WHEN OTHER SAME/MAKE/MODEL/YEAR WERE COVERED. I CALLED JEEP AND THEY SAID I HAD DIFFERENT ALTERNATOR, BUT I HAD SAME PROBLEM/ISSUE, NOT FAR TO BE NOT COVERED. TOTAL BILL $2K FOR ALTERNATOR/BATTERY/STARTER/TOWING AND COMPUTER FIX. NOT TO MENTION I DIDN'T HAVE USE OF JEEP FOR DAYS WHILE IT WAS GETTING FIXED. I WAS LUCKY I DIDN'T HAVE ACCIDENT, WHICH COULD HAVE HAPPENED NOT KNOWING WHAT WAS GOING ON AT TIME AND COULD YOU IMAGINE JEEP DYING ON HIGHWAY. JEEP HAS NO CLUE WHAT IS CAUSING THIS TO HAPPEN, NOR BEING FAIR TO ALL CONSUMERS, LEAVING THEM STRANDED AND BROKE.

Summary

ALTERNATOR FAILED AT 35118 MI. HAD IN REPAIR TWICE FOR ISSUES WHEN DRIVING. LOUD WHINE, BURNING SMELL AND SMOKE REPORTED. FIRST TIME DEALER KEEP CAR FOR OVERNIGHT AND SAID THEY COULD FIND NO ISSUE EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD SMELLED THE BURNING SMELL TOO. SECOND TIME THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY ALTERNATOR. THEY REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR, I PICKED UP THE CAR, DROVE 2 MILES AND THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. I RETURNED IMMEDIATELY AND THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR 3 MORE DAYS. THE FAILED ALTERNATOR HAD "ARCED" TO THE POWER TRAIN, AND THEN THAT HAD TO BE REPLACE TOO (THAT UNDER WARRANTY THANK GOODNESS). BUT ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED FOR $1000 OUT OF MY POCKET EVEN THOUGH VERY LOW MILEAGE BECAUSE WAS OVER 3 YR WARRANTY PERIOD. IN RESEARCHING HOW COULD THIS HAVE HAPPENED SO EARLY, I FOUND THAT THE 160 ALTERNATORS FROM THE SAME PERIOD HAD BEEN RECALLED, BUT THE 180'S ARE NOT (AT LEAST NOT YET....I AM HOPING TO HELP INITIATE ANOTHER RECALL SINCE I SEE ONLINE THAT OTHERS WHO HAVE THIS MODEL AND YEAR AND 180 ALTERNATOR HAVE HAD SAME ISSUES AS ME). I WAS ENCOURAGED BY FCA CUSTOMER CARE TO FILE A PETITION FOR REIMBURSEMENT, AND HAVE JUST HEARD FROM THEM THAT THEY HAVE DECLINED IT SINCE MY VIN ISN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. TO BE SPECIFIC ABOUT THE EPISODES, I WAS DRIVING BOTH TIMES THAT THIS OCCURRED. BOTH TIMES I HAD JUST STARTED TO DRIVE AND THE CAR MADE A LOUD WHINING NOISE THAT LASTED FOR A BIT, AND INCREASED ON ACCELERATION, AND QUICKLY I COULD SMELL SOMETHING LIKE BURNING RUBBER AND SEE SMOKE. I WAS AFRAID THE CAR WAS GOING TO STOP SUDDENLY BECAUSE IT STARTED TO BE JERKY, AND WHEN I CAME TO STOP LIGHT IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL. BUT IT KEPT GOING, AND I DROVE STRAIGHT TO THE DEALER BOTH TIMES.

ON SATURDAY 3/11/2017 I ATTEMPTED TO BACK MY JEEP DOWN AND OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES FELT STRANGE, AND THAT AS I DEPRESSED THE PEDAL THE JEEP WAS NOT STOPPING. CONFUSED, I HIT THE E-BRAKE TO STOP THE JEEP AND ATTEMPTED TO PUMP THE BRAKE PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES TO SEE IF THERE WAS RESISTANCE. THE PEDAL FELT BETTER, BUT I COULD HEAR A HISING SOUND, LIKE A VACUUM LEAK. I WENT ON LINE AND SAW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE BRAKE SYSTEM FOR MY VEHICLE, WHICH COINCIDENTALLY WAS THE SAME PROBLEM I HAD EXPERIENCED. WHAT CAUGHT MY ATTENTION WAS THAT THE RECALL MENTIONED WATER INTRUSION INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND THE POTENTIAL FOR FREEZING AND REDUCING THE BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS. I LIVE IN PITTSBURGH, PA, AND FOR 3 DAYS PRIOR TO MY BRAKE ISSUE IT HAD BEEN RAINY, AND MILD. FRIDAY NIGHT 3/10, THE TEMPERATURE DROPPED AND SATURDAY MORNING 3/11 IT WAS 20 DEG F. I CANT HELP BUT THINK THE TEMPERATURE, AND MOISTURE PLAYED A ROLE IN THIS INCIDENT. I'M JUST GLAD IT HAPPENED RIGHT AWAY INSTEAD OF ONCE I GOT OUT INTO TRAFFIC. THE JEEP IS CURRENTLY AT JEEP IN MOON TOWNSHIP, PA FOR TROUBLESHOOTING. ...UPDATED 04/11/17 *BF ..UPDATED 06/06/17 *BF *AS

THIS VEHICLE ISN'T SAFE AND CONSUMERS ARE FORKING THE BILL TO PAY FOR THESE POORLY BUILT JEEP VEHICLES.

AS I WAS DRIVING THE CAR SHUT OFF AND POWER STEERING WENT OUT. I BARELY MADE IT SAFELY TO MY DESTINATION. WE CALLED OUR JEEP DEALER AND THERE WERE A FEW RECALLS. WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE JEEP TO THE DEALER. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY. THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL ON THE ALTERNATOR FOR THE 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE (P60/NHTSA 14V-634); HOWEVER, THEY CLAIM THAT MY 180 AMP IS NOT COVERED. WHAT I EXPERIENCED IS EXACTLY LIKE THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS RECALL. LUCKILY I WAS DRIVING WHEN THIS OCCURRED, BECAUSE I DON'T THINK MY WIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE TO A SAFE STOP. THEY ARE NOT HONORING THE RECALL TO REPLACE MY PARTS. MORE IMPORTANTLY, THEY ARE NOT INCLUDING MY VEHICLE IN THE RECALL BECAUSE ITS 180 AMPS; HOWEVER, THIS IS A TREMENDOUS RISK TO ANY OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE AND I WAS NOT NOTIFIED. I DISCUSSED THIS AT LENGTH WITH FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES (FCA) ON 03/02/2017. I SPOKE TO CUSTOMER REPRESENTATIVE RAMARIO AND NICOLE.

Summary

LOW BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, AND TWO MILES LATER THE MAJORITY OF DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON. SIMULTANEOUSLY, A CONSTANT BEEPING BEGAN AND WIPERS TURNED ON. THE SCARY PART IS THAT WITHIN SECONDS, I LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKES DID NOT WORK CORRECTLY. THE ROAD I WAS DRIVING WAS PRECARIOUS, WINDY, AND DID NOT HAVE A SHOULDER. I CONTINUED AT MINIMAL SPEED AROUND THE CURVES FOR LESS THAN A MILE, LOOKING FOR A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER. VERY SOON, THE CAR ACCELERATOR STOPPED AND THE CAR DIED. I MANAGED TO PULL THE CAR ONTO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD (TOOK EFFORT WITHOUT POWER STEERING). TERRIBLE AND SUDDEN EXPERIENCE. NOT ENOUGH WARNING TO GET THE CAR SERVICED BEFORE COMPLETE ELECTRONIC AND VEHICLE SHUTDOWN OCCURRED. THANKFUL THAT NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE AROUND DURING THE INCIDENT, AS I AM CONFIDENT I DID NOT HAVE SAFE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE DURING THIS TIME. TOWED VEHICLE TO SAFETY. MECHANIC TESTED AND DISCOVERED THAT ALTERNATOR FULLY SHORTED AND BATTERY WAS COMPLETELY DEAD (UNABLE TO RECHARGE).

Summary

IN 2014 HAD A BRAKE BOOSTER RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. ALL PARTS WERE REPLACED RELATED TO THE BRAKE BOOSTER IN MAY OF 2014. ON THE FIRST BELOW FREEZING TEMPERATURE OF THE SEASON IN 2016 MY BRAKES FAILED WHEN TRYING TO STOP AT AN INTERSECTION I WENT 20 FEET PASS THE STOP SIGN UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO STOP. LUCKILY NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE AT THE INTERSECTION AT THIS TIME. AS I KEPT PUMPING THE BRAKES WHILE SLOWLY CONTINUING TO DRIVE THE BRAKING BEGAN TO WORK. I HAD NO OTHER BRAKING ISSUES THAT DAY. THE VERY NEXT DAY WITH BELOW FREEZING TEMPERATURES I WAS AGAIN UNABLE TO STOP AT THE FIRST INTERSECTION I APPROACHED AGAIN NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE AT THE INTERSECTION. I AGAIN CONTINUOUSLY PUMPED THE BRAKES WHILE SLOWLY DRIVING AND I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED. MY PERSONAL MECHANIC INDICATED THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND AFTER THE DEALERS CONFIRMATION THAT THE PROBLEM WAS THE BRAKE BOOSTER IT HAS NOW BEEN REPLACED AGAIN. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED THAT THE PARTS USED TO REPLACE THE BOOSTER IN THE ORIGINAL RECALL ARE FAULTY PARTS THEREFORE CAUSING THE SAME PROBLEM THE RECALL WAS SUPPOSE TO FIX. I WOULD LIKE THIS KNOWN AS I AM SURE I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO WILL HAVE THIS ISSUE WITH THEIR BRAKES. *TR

Summary

ON ONE OF THE FIRST COLD DAYS OF THE YEAR WHILE DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT TRYING TO COME TO A STOP FOR A YELLOW LIGHT OUT OF THE LOT MY PREGNANT WIFE SUDDENLY NOTICED SHE HAD NO BRAKING CAPABILITY IN HER 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. LUCKILY THERE WAS NOT MUCH TRAFFIC AND SHE WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE LIGHT THEN COAST IT TO A SLOW ENOUGH SPEED TO THROW ON THE PARKING BRAKE AND PUT IT INTO PARK. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO MIDAS WHERE THEY DISCOVERED THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAD FAILED. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE WE FOUND SAFETY RECALL P14 / NHTSA 14V-154 WHICH HAD PREVIOUSLY RECALLED THIS PART FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER INFORMED US THAT OUR VEHICLE HAD ACCOMPLISHED THIS RECALL AND THE PART WAS REPLACED JUNE 21, 2014. LITTLE OVER 2 YEARS LATER (DEC 15, 2016), THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAS ALREADY FAILED AGAIN ON OUR VEHICLE WITH ONLY 52,058 MILES. CLEARLY THE REMEDY FOR THE INITIAL RECALL DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM, SO NOT ONLY AM I OUT ~700 DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIR, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHEN THE BRAKES WILL GO OUT NEXT. WILL IT BE ON A RAINY DAY WHEN MY WIFE IS DRIVING DOWN A BUSY HIGHWAY WITH MY CHILD IN THE CAR?

WHILE DRIVING APROX. 40 MPH ON A REGULAR CITY STREET IN MY 2013" JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, MY PASSENGER SEAT HEAD REST EJECTED AND THE SPRING ACTION LUNGED IT FORWARD CAUSING MY ENTIRE SEATS AIR BAG SYSTEM TO MALFUNCTION. I WAS INFORMED AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT WAS A MALFUNCTION, MY ONLY OPTION WAS TO PAY THOUSANDS TO REPLACE IT. ALSO THAT THE SEAT WILL NEVER GO BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL POSITION AND THE INNARDS WILL ALWAYS SHOW UNLESS I PAY TO FIX IT. I WAS SIMPLY DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN, NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY HAPPENED. IT JUST WENT OFF ALMOST CAUSING ME TO CRASH BECAUSE OF THE VERY LOUD POP CAUSING ME TO REACT. I WAS TOLD THAT MY DRIVERS SEAT HAS THE SAME SYSTEM AND BASICALLY BE CAUTIONS WHILE DRIVING. I INFORMED JEEP CORP. THEY SENT A PRIVATE CORPORATE INVESTIGATOR. I WAS INFORMED VIA FORMAL LETTER THAT THEY WILL NOT BE FIXING THE PROBLEM. THIS IS THE 4TH. DANGEROUS MALFUNCTION MY VEHICLE HAS HAD. #TIMES PREVIOUSLY IT WAS A NATION WIDE RECALL THAT WAS TAKEN CARE OF. I FEAR I WILL BE DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN ON THE FREEWAY WHEN THE DRIVERS SEAT MALFUNCTIONS AND WE WILL CRASH AS A RESULT OF THIS RANDOM MALFUNCTION. IF I CRASH NOT ONLY IS MINE AND MY FAMILIES LIVES IN DANGER BUT ALSO ALL OF THOSE IN THE VEHICLES AROUND ME.

PASSENGER SIDE HEADLAMP DOES NOT COME ON IN DAYTIME. AT DUSK, WHEN THE SENSOR TURNS ON BRIGHTER LAMPS; THIS PASSENGER SIDE HEADLAMP WORKS. AT TIME, WHEN RAINING OR WHEN I WANT TO BE SEEN, I WILL MANUALLY TURN ON BOTH HEADLIGHTS. NOW THE PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT WILL NOT COME ON DURING THE DAY; HOWEVER IT WILL COME ON WITH THE AUTOMATIC DUSK FEATURE. I SEE MANY "ONE-SIDED" DAYTIME RUNNING HEADLAMPS IN THE NEWER MODEL JEEPS PRIOR TO THE NEW LED ROPE LIGHTING HEADLAMP FEATURE IMPLEMENTED IN 2014. THE AUTO DEALER WILL HAPPILY REPLACE THE BALLAST AND ASSEMBLY FOR $500.00. IN MY MIND, THIS IS A DEFECT KNOWN TO THE MAKER WHICH IS WHY A NEW TYPE OF LIGHTING WAS IMPLEMENTED. IT WORKED FINE UNTIL SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. EVEN THOUGHT IT'S JUST ANNOYING; IT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT. IT WAS SUGGESTED I CHECK IN WITH THIS WEBSITE TO SEE IF THERE ARE OTHER COMPLAINTS.

ON 3/31/2016 I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MILES PER HOUR. UNEXPECTEDLY MY HEAD WAS THROWN FORWARD. THERE WERE NO CARS IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME. I DISCOVERED THE DRIVERS HEADREST SEPARATED FROM THE HEADREST BACKING BY AT LEAST 3". (SEE PICTURES) I TOOK IT TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS ASKED IF THE VEHICLE WAS IN A FRONT/REAR ACCIDENT. I AM THE ONLY OWNER AND CAN VERIFY IT WAS NOT IN A FRONT OR REAR ACCIDENT. THEY EXPLAINED THE HEADREST IS DESIGNED TO DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT TO PREVENT WHIPLASH. THEY ATTEMPTED TO RESET IT WITH NO SUCCESS AND INSTRUCTED ME TO CALL JEEP (800-992-1997). AFTER THEIR ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE HEADREST RATTLES WHILE DRIVING - QUITE DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. JEEP HAS FAILED TO REPAIR OR REPLACE THE HEADREST AND HAS FAILED TO RETURN MY CALLS FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS. THEIR COMMUNICATION DIRECTED ME TO ATTEMPT TO RE-SET THE HEADREST ON MY OWN - WHICH I HAD THE SAME RESULTS AS THE DEALERSHIP, UNSUCCESSFUL. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE UNNECESSARY DEPLOYMENT OF A HEADREST WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY COULD CAUSE SERIOUS ACCIDENTS. I WOULD LIKE THIS SITUATION CORRECTED AS I AM NOW DRIVING WITH A DEPLOYED HEADREST FORCING MY HEAD FORWARD AND RATTLING.

MY VEHICLE HAS 4 OPEN RECALLS AS LISTED BELOW. I HAVE PRESENTED IT MANY MONTHS AGO TO TWO DIFFERENT JEEP DEALERS, DICK MYERS, HARRISONBURG, VA AND BILLY BENDER, CUMBERLAND, MD (WHERE I PURCHASED IT).

I SUSPICION THAT THIS IS A FINANCIAL DECISION BY JEEP, NOT THE DEALERSHIPS. I THINK THEY ARE DELAYING, HOPING TO NOT HAVE TO MAKE THESE REPLACEMENTS. I WANT TO DECLARE THE JEEP A LEMON DUE TO THIS AND FORCE THEM TO BUY IT BACK SINCE THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIX IT. I WANT THE GOVERNMENT TO PUT SOME TEETH IN THESE RECALLS.

I COULD NOT USE MY CRUISE RETURNING TO ABQ. AND MY BRAKES WERE STICKING. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER ON 22MAY AND THEY FOUND THAT THE MASTER WAS LEAKING FLUID INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND MADE MENTION OF THE P14 RECALL. THEY REPERFORMED THE RECALL AND REPLACED THE MASTER AND BOOSTER AND AFTER TESTING THEY FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES. THEY ORDERED ANOTHER MASTER CYL. AND AFTER INSTALLING SAID THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED. ON RETURNING TO ABQ ON 15JULY/15 AND LESS THAN 3000 MILES LATER I ENCOUNTERED THE SAME MALFUNCTION. BACK TO THE DEALER ON JULY 17 WITH THE SAME DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIRS. LESS THAN 1000 MILES ON DEC. 23/2015 THE SAME MALFUNCTION AND RETURN TO THE DEALER ON 31DEC. AT THIS POINT THE SERVICE ADVISOR AND THE MECHANIC SAID THEY COULD REDO THE FIX BUT IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND IT WAS A HEALTH HAZARD BECAUSE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF CATASTROPHIC BRAKE FAILURE. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY SAID SINCE IT WAS REPAIRED THEY COULD NOT DO A VEHICLE REPLACEMENT AND TO CONTACT THEM WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN. I TOLD THEM WHAT THE MECHANIC AND ADVISOR SAID ABOUT BREAK FAILURE AND IT WAS "WE CAN NOT HELP YOU." I THEN WROTE TO THEIR NCDS AND WAS TOLD THAT SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER IN WARRANTY I HAD NO CASE. WHEN THIS STARTED THE VEHICLE HAD 41759 MILES AND THE LAST REPAIR IT HAD 48288. THE JEEP 2013 HAS A 50,000 FIVE YEAR WARRANTY. I HAVE ALL THE REPAIR INVOICES AND THE EMAILS FROM CHRYSLER IN MY FILES. PLEASE HELP

WARNING LIGHT WHILE DRIVING, "IMMEDIATE ATTENTION REQUIRED AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEM". OVERLAND MODEL AIR COMPRESSOR LEAK AFTER 31 MONTHS. AIR COMPRESSOR IS NOT COVERED DUE TO MILEAGE, BUT IS NOT A WEAR/TEAR RELATED PART. DEALER REPAIR $2266.07. MULTIPLE CALLS TO CHRYSLER FOR SOME HELP WITH PART RESULTED IN NO HELP. A COMPRESSOR SHOULD NOT FAIL IN 2.5 YEARS; THE WARRANTY FROM THE COMPONENT MANUFACTURER IS LIKELY AT LEAST 3 YEARS (I AM IN THE REFREGERATION BUSINESS AND KNOW ABOUT COMPRESSOR WARRANTIES). THE PART SEEMS TO BE PROBLEMATIC BASED UPON SEARCHES AND THE FACT THAT THE PART IS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER FROM ALTERNATE SUPPLIERS.

Summary

I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE. THE FIRST ISSUE HAPPENED A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE CAR REFUSED TO START AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET FIXED. THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL FAULT, AND COULD HAVE HAPPENED AT ANY POINT. CURRENTLY THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP SINCE NOVEMBER 10TH. THE VEHICLE HESITATES BEFORE MOVING FORWARD WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS, THEN SOMETHING ENGAGES AND IT JUMPS FORWARD. SOMETIMES IT COMES TO A STOP BEFORE IT RAPIDLY ACCELERATES. THE JEEP HAS BEEN AT ATLANTIC JEEP FOR ALMOST FOUR WEEKS AND THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN FORTHCOMING IN EXPLAINING WHAT IS GOING ON. THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIGURE IT OUT THEMSELVES AND I AM IN FEAR OF DRIVING THIS CAR IN THE FUTURE IF THE SAME PROBLEMS OCCUR. THERE SEEMS TO BE A BIG RISK OF HAVING A CRASH WITH THE ISSUES DESCRIBED ABOVE. THIS HAPPENED ON HIGHWAYS, STREETS, SLOW OR FAST DIDN'T SEEM TO HAVE AN AFFECT. THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR ISSUE, AND IS VERY SCARY FOR ME AS A DRIVER.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE ON A CITY STREETWHEN MY EYES AND THROAT STARTED BURNING. MY 10 MONTH OLD INFANT BEGAN TO CRY AS I REALIZED SMOKE WAS FILING THE CABIN. I PANICKED, AND PULLED OVER, TURNED OFF THE CAR AND IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY BABY OUT OF THE CAR. WE REMAINED IN THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR ASSISTANCE. I CONTINUED SEEING SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY CAR. WHEN ASSISTANCE ARRIVED, I REALIZED THE RIGHT VISOR HAD CAUGHT ON FIRE AND A RESULT WAS BURNED WITH A BLACK HOLE. I TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP ON JANUARY 6, 2015 TO GET IT SERVICED FOR RECALL P 36, WHICH IS RELATED TO THE SUN VISOR WIRING. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP, THAT THE RECALL HAD BEEN COMPLETED. I CONTACTED CHYRSLER CUSTOMER SUPPORT AFTER MY JEEP WAS ON FIRE AND FILED A COMPLAINT. THE REPRESENTATIVE WAS SO RUDE AND TOLD ME IT WOULD TAKE 2-3 BUSINESS DAYS TO GET MY CASE REVIEWED. THIS WAS NOT A SURPRISE, AS I HAVE DEALT WITH CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE IN THE PAST AND HAVE NEVER HAD A GOOD EXPERIENCE. I FEARED FOR MY SAFETY AS WELL THE SAFETY OF MY INFANT. I REFUSE TO DRIVE THAT CAR, AND WAS TOLD BY THE CUSTOMER REPRESENTATIVE THAT I SHOUKD TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. WHY THEY WOULD SUGGEST THAT ? I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T FEEL SAFE AND NOW I AM CAR LESS AS I WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO REVIEW MY CASE.

AFTER SIX MONTHS OF NO NOTICE OF THE AVAILABILITY OF THE PART TO REPAIR THE RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP RELAY, I SCHEDULED SERVICE APPOINTMENT FOR 8/15. THE DEALER STILL DID NOT HAVE THE PART. I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM HEATHER, BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER. SHE CLAIMED I NEVER RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FOR ANY OF THE 3 RECALLS BECAUSE THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE. SHE SAID SOMEONE IN THE SERVICE CENTER IS SUPPOSED TO SCREEN THE APPOINTMENTS AND CONTACT OWNER IF PART IS NOT AVAILABLE AND ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAD FAILED TO DO THIS. I SCHEDULED ANOTHER APPOINTMENT TO REPAIR RECALL AND GET BRAKES EVALUATED. I DROPPED MY CAR OFF 10 AM ON 9/4. AT 1:45, I HAD NOT HEARD FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND CALLED AND LEFT VOICEMAIL ASKING ABOUT MY CAR. AT 4 PM, STILL NO WORD FROM THE DEALERSHIP, I CALLED AGAIN AND LEFT ANOTHER MESSAGE. AT 5 PM, STILL NO WORD, I TRIED WEB CHAT ON DEALER SITE AND REP DIDNT HAVE ANY INFORMATION. THE DEALER SERVICE DEPT CLOSED AT 6, SO I WENT TO GET MY CAR. THE SERVICE REP DIDNT KNOW WHERE MY CAR WAS. ON HIS DESK WAS A POST-IT WITH MY NAME AND PHONE NUMBER ON IT. HE RETURNED AFTER 10-15 MINUTES AND TOLD ME THE MECHANICS FOUND SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY BRAKES (STARTED AFTER 8/15 SERVICE) AND WANTED MORE TIME WITH IT. I ASKED IF MY CAR WAS IN A STATE I COULD TAKE IT HOME, I HAD BEEN TO THE DEALER ENOUGH TIMES ALREADY TO GET REPAIR. WHEN HE RETURNED, HE HANDED ME THE KEY AND MADE NO ADDITIONAL COMMENTS. I ASKED IF THE RECALL HAD BEEN REPAIRED AND HE SAID, "NO." SECOND TRIP TO DEALER FOR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL, THEY HAD MY CAR FOR OVER EIGHT HOURS AND DIDN'T REPAIR THE RECALL OR ANYTHING ELSE. I EMAILED HEATHER TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE AT THE DEALERSHIP. TO DATE I HAVE RECEIVED NO RESPONSE FROM DEALER AND THE EMAIL SITE FOR JEEP DOESNT WORK. I WILL HAVE TO FIND ANOTHER DEALER TO FIX THE FUEL RELAY RECALL AND BRAKE ISSUE.

Summary

THE ENGINE AND ALL SYSTEMS STOP; TURN OFF WITHOUT NOTICE. ACTUALLY NOT A STALL, BUT ALL POWER CEASES TO WORK ABRUPTLY. THE CAR THEN MUST BE STOPPED FULLY TO ALLOW A RESTART. WITHOUT POWER STEERING OR BRAKES THE CAR IS IMMEDIATELY SUBJECT TO A REAR END COLLISION. IT HAS ALWAYS OCCURRED AT SPEEDS AROUND 15 TO 20 MPH, AND NORMALLY WHEN SLOWING. JEEP DEALERS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND, OF COURSE I CANNOT DUPLICATE FOR THEM AS IT OCCURS WITHOUT NOTICE PERIODICALLY. JEEP RECENTLY, FINALLY ISSUED A RECALL FOR A FIX BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES EVEN AFTER THEIR "FIX". THE CAR DOES HAVE AN AFTERMARKET SUPPLEMENTAL BRAKING SYSTEM TO ALLOW TOWING BY AN RV. THAT HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED AS A POSSIBLE CAUSE, BUT THE STALLS HAVE CONTINUED. I CAN'T DRIVE THE CAR NOR WILL I ALLOW MY FAMILY TO DO SO.

ON JUN 30, 2015, WE LEARNED THE "THE SOURCE OF THE FIRE WAS NOT RELATED TO THE P36 REPAIR, BUT WAS FOR ANOTHER CAUSE". ON JUL 10, 2015, WE LEARNED THE P36 REPAIR PLASTIC SHROUD WAS INTACT AND THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE WAS FOUND IN THE WIRING HARNESS ABOVE THE SUN VISOR IN THE HEADLINER AREA. CHRYSLER JEEP DENIED OUR WARRANTY REPAIR REQUEST ON JUL 24, 2015, BECAUSE THE SOURCE OF THE FIRE COULD NOT BE TRACED BACK TO A FACTORY DEFECT IN MATERIALS OR WORKMANSHIP. ON JUL 27, 2015, OUR LOCAL CHRYSLER JEEP DEALER DECIDED TO REPAIR OUR VEHICLE, AT THEIR COST, BECAUSE WE WERE VALUED CUSTOMERS, BUT THE DECISION CAME THE SAME DAY A LETTER WAS READ BY THE DEALERSHIP GENERAL MANAGER THAT SAID WE MAY PURSUE A REMEDY USING THE CALIFORNIA LEMON LAW. WE FOUND THERE WERE MORE THAN 91 OTHER SIMILAR INCIDENTS IN 2011-2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND DODGE DURANGO VEHICLES, AND AT LEAST 8 MORE EXPERIENCED FIRES AFTER THE P36 SAFETY RECALL REPAIR HAD BEEN COMPLETED. WE ENCOURAGE NHTSA TO HAVE FCA INSTALL CIRCUIT BREAKERS IN VANITY LAMP WIRING HARNESSES FOR 2011-2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND DODGE DURANGO VEHICLES. OUR VEHICLE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED AFTER 13 WEEKS, ON AUG 18, 2015

Summary

ON JAN 7, 2015, WHILE I WAS DRIVING TOWARDS THE GARAGE, MY VEHICLE (GRAND CHEROKEE 2013) SUDDENLY (UNEXPECTEDLY) ACCELERATED AND, ALTHOUGH I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, IT CRASHED AGAINST THE WALL. THE VEHICLE ACTIVATED AIRBAGS BURNING AND BRUISING MY BODY; I WENT TO THE ER AND RECEIVED MEDICAL ASSISTANCE. SOME OF THE PARTS REPLACED FOR THIS CRASH INCLUDED, BUMPER AND HOOD ASSEMBLIES, A/C DUCTS AND EVAPORATOR, GRILLE, RADIATOR, HEADLIGHT, COMPUTER, WIPER WASH CANISTER, WATER PUMP, FAN, SEAT BELT AND ONE FENDER, ETC. IN ADDITION THE CRASH TOLL CAUSED STRUCTURAL DAMAGES TO THE PROPERTY. THE SERVICE SHOP COMPLETED THE REPAIRS ON FEB 27, 2015. ON MARCH 2 AND MAY 20, 2015 I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER BECAUSE OF TRANSMISSION SHIFTING FAILURES. THEY FINALLY CHANGED THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION BY MAY 29, 2015. ON JULY 2 I TOOK IT BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER BECAUSE THERE WAS A NOISY RIDING AND CHECK ENGINE WAS ON; BY JULY 16 THEY HAD REPLACED ONE SHOCK ABSORBER, THE GAS PUMP AND TANK, AND ONE OXYGEN SENSOR (MILEAGE AT THIS POINT 22,594). ON JULY 22, 2015 I WENT BACK AGAIN BECAUSE OF CHECK ENGINE AND THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR REPLACING THE CATALYST. BECAUSE OF THE UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION EVENT, ALL ABOVEMENTIONED REPAIRS, PLUS FIVE EXECUTED RECALLS (ONE STILL OPEN R909/NHTSA 14V-115) AND AN IMMINENT SIXTH RECALL FOR START BUTTON (THAT DOES NOT SHUTS OFF); I DON'T TRUST THIS VEHICLE'S SAFETY AND QUALITY. I'M AFRAID OF HURTING ME OR SOMEONE ELSE; I COULD NOT AFFORD REPAIRS AT UPCOMING WARRANTY EXPIRY. THEREFORE, I HOPE YOU BUY BACK THIS DEFECTIVE GRAND CHEROKEE 2013.

I HAVE A CHRYSLER RECALL #R09 (FUEL PUMP RELAY REPLACEMENT). AFTER SPEAKING WITH A FCA RECALL REPRESENTATIVE, I AN TOLD THAT THESE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE, YET MY VEHICLE IS A DANGER TO DRIVE! I DID RESEARCH, AND MY LOCAL DEALER CAN GET A TIPM MODULE WHICH INCLUDES THE FUEL PUMP RELAY, IN JUST 2 DAYS. I CAN HAVE MY VEHICLE REPAIRED IN JUST A WEEK. YET I'M STILL WAITING ON PARTS THAT FCA HAS "APPROVED" FOR THE REPAIR. FCA HAS STILL NOT OFFERED TO GIVE ME A SAFE RENTAL VEHICLE. THEY JUST TOLD ME TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE UNTIL IT STALLS/WONT START, OR UNTIL "APPROVED" PARTS ARRIVE. AFTER SPEAKING WITH THE RECALL REPRESENTATIVE, I WAS TOLD PARTS "MAY" BE AVAILABLE BY THE END OF AUGUST. I FEEL FCA IS DOING ANYTHING THAT THEY CAN TO SAVE MONEY RATHER THAN FIX MY CAR. I WANT MY CAR FIXED. IF "APPROVED" PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE BY THE END OF AUGUST, I WILL BE FILING ANOTHER COMPLAINT WITH BOTH FCA, AND NHTSA.

Summary

I HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL FOR MY JEEP: THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) CONTAINS AN INTERNAL FUEL PUMP RELAY THAT COULD OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY OR FAIL WITHOUT WARNING. AN INTERMITTENT OR FAILED FUEL PUMP RELAY COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. THREE MONTHS LATER, JEEP SAYS THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE, THEREFORE, MY CAR IS STILL DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. RECALL STATUS: INCOMPLETE BUT REPAIR PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. FURTHERMORE, JEEP WANTS TO HACK INTO MY WIRING TO REPLACE A RELAY. THAT RELAY IS ORIGINALLY PART OF THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE A "CHEAP" RATHER THAN "PROPER" APPROACH TO REPAIRING MY VEHICLE. I WANT THE MODULE REPLACED IN WHOLE, AS THIS IS WHERE THE RELAY IN QUESTION WAS ENGINEERED TO RESIDE. FURTHERMORE, I HAVE CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER TO VERIFY THE AVAILABILITY OF THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD ORDER IT AND HAVE IT ON THEIR SHELF IN 2 WORKING DAYS! I WANT JEEP TO REPAIR THIS SAFETY DEFECT IMMEDIATELY, AND PROPERLY, AS THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED AND ENGINEERED TO OPERATE.

PLEASE REVIEW EMAIL CHAIN TO CHRYSLER'S CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER (NOTE: I HAD TO DELETE THEIR PASSIVE RESPONSE TO MY ORIGINAL EMAIL SINCE YOUR SYSTEM LIMITS THE NUMBER OF CHARACTERS. THEY PROVIDED NO REAL SUPPORT OTHER THAN TO GO TO A DEALER, WHICH I HAVE MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE AND THEY HAVE NOT IDENTIFIED ANY ISSUE): DEAR CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY YOU HAVE NOT TAKEN MY ISSUE SERIOUSLY. TONIGHT A SIMILAR SITUATION HAPPENED. THE KEYLESS FOB WAS IN A PURSE ON THE PASSENGER SEAT OF THE VEHICLE. AS MY WIFE EXITED THE VEHICLE, THE DOORS WERE SOMEHOW LOCKED. SHE WAS UNABLE TO OPEN THE DOORS FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. LUCKILY, AGAIN, THERE WAS SOMEONE OF AGE THAT COULD OPEN THE DOORS. HOWEVER, I HAVE A 2 YEAR OLD SON THAT IS NORMALLY IN HIS CAR SEAT, AND WOULD HAVE NO POSSIBILITY TO EXIT THE VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION, AND THIS IS LIFE THREATENING AS WE LIVE IN A HOT CLIMATE, ESPECIALLY IN THE SUMMER TIME. MY NEXT EMAIL AND PHONE CALL IS WITH NHTSA. THIS IS 100% UNACCEPTABLE AND YOU HAVE TAKEN MY CONCERNS LIGHTLY. WHEN THERE IS THE FIRST FATALITY DUE TO THIS ISSUE, THERE WILL BE MAJOR CONSEQUENCES TO CHRYSLER. I WILL DISCUSS THIS WITH NHTSA. REGARDS JODY ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS: ------------------------ US CUSTOMER SERVICE - JEEP BRAND SITE BRIEF DESCRIPTION: SAFETY CONCERN WITH '13 JEEP CHEROKEE COMMENTS: THIS WEEKEND WE WERE PRESENTED WITH A SAFETY CONCERN WITH OUR '13 JEEP CHEROKEE. MY WIFE HAD HER KEY IN HER PURSE, GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE WITH HER PURSE STILL IN THE CAR. WHILE GETTING OUT, THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR PARTIALLY SHUT, SHE WAS OUTSIDE OF THE CAR BUT COULDN'T OPEN ANY DOOR. MY 2 YEAR OLD SON WAS IN THE CAR, BUT LUCKILY MY 6 YR OLD DAUGHTER WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF HER SEAT AND OPEN THE DOOR, OTHERWISE HE WOULD HAVE BEEN LOCKED INSIDE.

Summary

THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED AT THE END OF APRIL. WHILE DRIVING, AFTER CROSSING A BUSY STREET, I SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND ENGINE RESPONSE. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST REPAIR SHOP, I HAD TO HAVE THE FUEL PUMP AND SENDER REPLACED. THIS IS WHEN I WAS MADE AWARE THERE IS A FUEL KIT RELAY RECALL. NOW, BARELY 4 WEEKS LATER, THIS EXACT SAME THING HAS HAPPENED AGAIN. WITH APPARENTLY NO REMEDY TO THE RECALL YET, I AM NOW LEFT PAYING FOR THE SAME EXACT REPAIRS I JUST HAD DONE LESS THAN 150 MILES AGO. THIS TIME IT HAPPENED AFTER CROSSING INTO ANOTHER STATE, ABOUT 45 MINUTES FROM HOME. THE TIME, COST AND HASSLE OF ALL THIS HAS BEEN COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF MAJOR TRAFFIC...LUCKILY!

CHRYSLER, SENT US A LETTER LISTING THE RECALL BELOW FOR OUR 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PART. THE REPAIR HAS NOT BEEN MADE AND THEY GIVE US NO INFORMATION ABOUT WHEN IT WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR REPAIR. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT WE HAVE A 2 YEAR OLD AND MY WIFE DRIVES THE JEEP EVERY DAY, HER ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. THE RECALL STATES "IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE FUEL PUMP RELAY INSIDE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM-7) MAY FAIL, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING." ALSO, VERY CONCERNING TO US: "CONSEQUENCE: A VEHICLE STALL INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH." HERE IS THE RECALL INFO: CHRYSLER (FCA US LLC) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2012-2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE VEHICLES MANUFACTURED SEPTEMBER 17, 2010, TO AUGUST 19, 2013, AND EQUIPPED WITH A 3.6, 5.7 OR 6.4 LITER ENGINE, AND 2012-2013 DODGE DURANGO VEHICLES MANUFACTURED JANUARY 18, 2011, TO AUGUST 19, 2013, AND EQUIPPED WITH A 3.6 OR 5.7 LITER ENGINE. IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE FUEL PUMP RELAY INSIDE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM-7) MAY FAIL, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING.

Summary

I HAVE REPLACED THE TAIL LIGHTS (4X WITHIN 12MONTHS), FOG LIGHT (AFTER ONE EXPLODED AND MELTED THE HOUSING), LIGHTS IN VISOR (SAFETY RECALL), DAY TIME RUNNING LIGHTS (6X), A SENSOR HAS QUIT WORKING ON THE ENGINE MODULE THAT TELLS THE ENGINE WHEN IT IS UP TO TEMPERATURE, AND THE LEATHER DASH SUDDENLY WARPED. MY VEHICLE HAS 60,000 MILES ON IT AND ALREADY I HAVE REPLACED VARIOUS LIGHTS ON IT (THE DAY TIME RUNNING LIGHTS NEED A TRAINED MECHANIC) COSTING ME A TON OF MONEY. THE WARPED DASH WAS INSPECTED BY THE MANAGER OF RICE CHRYSLER DODGE IN KNOXVILLE, TN INFORMED ME THAT THE GLUE ALLOWED THE DASH TO LIFT AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS MANUFACTURE DEFECT, AND I JUST RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL THAT ANOTHER SAFETY RECALL IS BEING ISSUED FOR THE ENGINE STALLING THAT COULD CAUSE A DEADLY ACCIDENT. I THINK THAT MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE REGISTERED AS A LEMON, I HAVE ALWAYS TRUSTED JEEP, ALWAYS HAD JEEPS, BUT THIS ONE HAS BEEN A COSTLY MISTAKE. *TR

Summary

WE RECEIVED A RECALL FOR THIS JEEP LAST FALL(2014). THE NUMBER IS P60/NHTSA 14V-634 LABELED ALTERNATOR. THE RECALL STATES THAT THE ALTERNATOR DIODES IN OUR VEHICLE MAY EXPERIENCE A RAPID FAILURE. VARIABILITY IN THE FAILURE MODE RANGES FROM NO OUTPUT, REDUCED OUTPUT, AND/OR A FULLY SHORTED TO GROUND CONDITION. DEPENDING ON THE ALTERNATOR FAILURE MODE AND TIMING, VEHICLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM VOLTAGE MAY DROP TO CRITICAL LEVELS, DISABLING SYSTEMS SUCH AS ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM(ABS), ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL(ECS), ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE(ECM),AND/OR CENTRAL BODY CONTROLLER(CBC). THE DRIVER WILL HAVE LITTLE OR NO DETECTION OF THE ALTERNATOR FAILING,WHICH CAN RESULT IN VEHICLE SHUTDOWN WHILE DRIVING AND/OR AN UNDERHOOD ELECTRICAL FIRE. WE CONTACTED OUR DEALER TWICE IN THE LAST 5 MONTHS AND BOTH TIMES WERE TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS. BY THEIR OWN STATEMENT THIS COULD RESULT IN A CRITICAL AND DISABLING SITUATION. WE SHOULD HAVE THIS REPLACED TODAY OR GIVEN A SAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE UNTIL OURS IS MADE SAFE. HOW LONG DO THEY GET TO PUT OFF REPAIRING THIS????? WHY HAS JEEP NOT MADE THESE PARTS AVAILABLE? AND IF THEY HAVE WHY ARE DEALERS NOT INSTALLING THEM. OUR DEALER IS FOX CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP IN AUBURN, NEW YORK. *TR

ON OCTOBER 15, 2014 I TOOK MY 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE TO MOORE AUTO GROUP 8590 WEST BELL ROAD PEORIA, AZ TO ADDRESS RECALL (P36 SUN VISOR WIRING). THE RECALL STATES; THE SUN VISOR VANITY LAMP WIRING ON YOUR VEHICLE MAY EXPERIENCE A HIGH RESISTANCE SHORT AFTER A SERVICE REPAIR TO THE SUN VISOR, HEADLINER OR WHILE GAINING ACCESS ABOVE THE HEADLINER. THIS MAY RESULT IN AN INOPERATIVE VANITY LAMP AND INCREASE RISK OF FIRE. ON FEBRUARY 4, 2015 WHILE PARKED, ENGINE NOT RUNNING, LOCKED AND UNOCCUPIED, IN A GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT, THE CAR ERUPTED IN FLAMES. THE SOURCE OF IGNITION WAS A SHORT IN THE WIRING ABOVE THE HEADLINER AT THE PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISOR. I BELIEVE THAT IN THE INTEREST OF SAFETY, ANY AND ALL OWNERS OF VEHICLES THAT HAD THIS RECALL MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AT MOORE AUTO GROUP BE ADVISED TO RETURN FOR REINSPECTION. *TR

AFTER DRIVING TO WORK 29 MILES WHILE WAITING FOR DAY SHIFT TO GET OUT SO I CAN GET A PARKING SPOT WHILE IN PARK WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING FOR AROUND 15 MINUTES I THEN PUT IT IN DRIVE WITH MY FOOT PRESSED VERY HARD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE ENGINE REVS UP TO A VERY HIGH RPMS AND MY JEEP MOVES FORWARD EVEN THOUGH I HAVE ALL MY PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE AND I AM A MALE AT 210 POUNDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER A DOZEN TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW AND THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM SAYS THEY CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. IT IS GOING BACK TO THE DEALER MONDAY 2/23/2015 AGAIN FOR THIS PROBLEM AND TO REPLACE A SHOCK. THE LAST TIME THEY SAID ALL THEY COULD FIND WAS THAT THE TRANY FLUID WAS LOW NOT SURE WHAT THAT HAS TO DO WITH MY PROBLEM. ANYWAY I REALLY LOVE MY JEEP HOWEVER THIS IS A VERY DANGERS PROBLEM. I WORK AT CHRYSLER SECOND SHIFT AND WHEN DAY SHIFT LETS OUT THERE ARE OVER 100 WORKERS LEAVING AND IF MY FOOT WAS NOT PRESSED FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE I COULD HAVE HIT ONE OF THEM. I HAVE THE 5.7 HEMMI ENGINE AND PERSONALLY I THINK IT IS A COMPUTER ISSUE HOWEVER I AM NOT A MECHANIC SO LIKE I SAY THAT'S JUST MY PERSONAL THINKING. THE VEHICLE MILEAGE I GAVE YOU IS A CLOSE GUESS I AM NOT ABLE TO GET THE EXACT MILEAGE AT THE TIME I AM SENDING THIS TO YOU. SHOULD BE GIVE OR TAKE AROUND 100 MILES. I CAN GO A MONTH OR WHAT EVER WITH NO PROBLEM THEN BAM IT HAPPENS. MY PHONE NUMBER IS [XXX ]FEEL FREE TO CALL ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

Summary

VEHICLE IS A TWO YEAR OLD DEALER MAINTAINED VEHICLE. NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND GARAGE KEPT AND MAINTAINED. WAS NOTIFIED OF AN ISSUE AT MY DEALER APROX 1 YR AGO THAT ALL OF MY LUG NUTS WERE SWOLLEN AND WERE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE FROM THE VEHICLE. WAS ADVISED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH MANY OF THE GRAND CHEROKEES AND OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES THAT UTILIZE THESE SAME LUG NUTS. VEHICLE BROKE DOWN ON SIDE OF ROAD WITH A FLAT TIRE AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP AS TOW DRIVER WAS THAN UNABLE TO REMOVE THE LUGS. SINCE THEN THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE AND NOW AM UNABLE TO REMOVE 3 OUT OF 4 TIRES FROM THE VEHICLE WITHOUT HAVING TO SHEER OFF THE NUTS. FILED FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE. WAS BLOWN OFF AND TOLD THAT THE DAMAGE IS MY FAULT AS AT SOME POINT AN IMPROPER TOOL WAS USED TO TAKE THE TIRES OFF DAMAGING LUGS. KEEP IN MIND THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN MAINTAINED NO WHERE OTHER THAN A JEEP DEALER. WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD NOT PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE DESPITE THIS BEING A SAFETY ISSUE AND WAS THAN HIT UP FOR $260 FOR LUG NUTS!!!! HAVE TO WONDER HOW MANY OTHER GRAND CHEROKEE OWNERS ARE OUT THERE SUFFERING FROM THIS SAME ISSUE AND RECEIVING THE SAME NONCHALANT TREATMENT FROM JEEP/CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE. *TR

Summary

MY CAR CONTINUED TO MAKE A SOUND AS THOUGH THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING WHEN I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF. I THINK THIS COULD BE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE RECALL ON THE ALTERNATOR DIODES. IT SEEMS THE ALTERNATOR MAY BE FAILING. THE POWER WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS APPLIED HESITATES AT TIMES ALSO WHEN DRIVING. MY FEAR IS THAT I WILL BE DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR WILL LOOSE ALL POWER COMPLETELY. THIS WILL LEAVE ME WITHOUT ANY STEERING CONTROL AT ALL TOO. I FEAR FOR MY LIFE AT THIS TIME. I WAS TOLD BY [XXX] THAT I SHOULD REPLACE IT AT MY COST. WHEN I ASKED HOW MUCH THAT WOULD COST THE SERVICE ADVISOR [XXX] LIED AND SAID HE DID NOT KNOW THE COST TO REPLACE THE PARTS. ALSO, IF THERE ARE PARTS NOW THEN THE ALTERNATOR/DIODES SHOULD BE BEING REPLACED BY CHRYSLER NOW BEFORE A SEVERE CATASTROPHE OCCURS. I ALSO HAD THE BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACED. SINCE THEN THERE IS A RATTLE UNDER THE HOOD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WHERE THE BRAKE BOOSTER WOULD BE. EVERY TIME I GO OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD A RATTLING SOUND HAPPENS. IT IS AS THOUGH THIS IS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SUSPENSION OF THE CAR OR ALIGNMENT TOO. [XXX] , SERVICE ADVISOR AT [XXX] HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY THIS PROBLEM. [XXX] WANTS ME TO COME IN FOR YET ANOTHER DAY TO TRY TO GET THE PROBLEM IDENTIFIED. THIS WILL MAKE 3 DAYS OF LOSING TIME FROM WORK AND BEING INCONVENIENCED. I HAVE BEEN TO THIS DEALER ON 2 OCCASIONS AND HAVE GOTTEN NO SATISFACTION OR RESOLVE AT ALL. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

Summary

DURING THE YEAR (2014), I HAVE RECEIVED TWO SEPARATE SAFETY RECALL NOTICES FROM CHRYSLER. WHEN I RECEIVED THE FIRST RECALL NOTICE (P14/NHTSA 14V-154 BRAKE BOOSTER), I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER (CARSON DODGE/JEEP) AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THEY DID NOT YET HAVE THE PARTS TO PERFORM THE SAFETY RECALL, SO IT DID NOT MAKE SENSE TO PERFORM THE INSPECTION. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THEY WOULD "PUT ME ON THE LIST" AND WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER, I GOT THE SECOND SAFETY RECALL (P36/NHTSA 14V-391 SUN VISOR WIRING). I CALLED CARSON DODGE/JEEP AGAIN. THEY STILL DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER RECALL AND IT "DIDN'T MAKE SENSE TO BRING MY JEEP IN TO THEM UNTIL THEY COULD PERFORM THE INSPECTION FOR BOTH SAFETY RECALLS". THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THEY WOULD "PUT ME ON THE LIST" AND WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. IT IS NOW THE END OF THE YEAR, CARSON DODGE/JEEP HAS NOT CALLED ME TO PERFORM EITHER OF THE SAFETY RECALL INSPECTIONS AND I FEEL LIKE I'M GETTING JERKED AROUND. AS THESE SAFETY RECALL NOTICES FROM CHRYSLER ARE NOT DATED, I CANNOT BE SURE OF THE EXACT MONTH/DATE THEY WERE RECEIVED. AS IMPORTANT AS THESE DOCUMENTS ARE, THEY SHOULD BE DATED. *TR

Summary

I HAVE A 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE NOW FOR THE ENGINE STALLING AS I CLIMB A HILL AND FOR IT KICKING INTO GEAR WHEN SITTING STILL WITH MY FOOT STILL ON THE BRAKE. THE CAR JERKS EXTREMELY HARD TO THE POINT WHERE YOU THINK YOU HAVE BEEN HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. IT ALSO DOES THIS WHEN SWITCHING BETWEEN THE FIRST 3 GEARS. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT IN, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY HAD TO ADJUST THE COMPUTER ON THE ENGINE. THIS DID NOT WORK AS I AM STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. I ALSO HAVE NOTICED A DECREASE IN MY MILEAGE PER GALLON. I WAS GETTING 14 AND AM NOW GETTING 9 MILES PER GALLON. MY OUTLET BUTTONS ARE ALL STICKING ON MY DASHBOARD AND ARE HARD TO THE TOUCH TO TURN ON. WHEN TRYING TO TURN ON ONE BUTTON, ALL BUTTONS LIGHT UP. IE..PARKING ASSISTANCE, SKID CONTROL, ETC. MY HEADLIGHTS ALSO WOULD NOT TURN ON WHEN DRIVING. THE ONLY LIGHTS THAT WORKED WERE THE HIGH BEAMS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME THREE TIMES WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THEY CAN NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. *TR

Summary

THIS IS A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE TIMELINE IN WHICH THIS RECALL P14/NHTSA 14V-154 (BRAKE BOOSTER) IS TAKING TO GET FIXED BY THE CHRYSLER GROUP. I HAVE BEEN ON THE WAITING LIST AT MY LOCAL DEALER IN RAPID CITY SINCE MID JUNE AND THEY INFORM ME THAT THEY ARE ONLY GETTING 3-4 PARTS PER MONTH TO FIX THIS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY CHRYSLER IS REACTING SO SLOW AT GETTING THE PARTS OUT TO THE DEALERS TO FIX THIS, ESPECIALLY WITH THE WINTER MONTHS COMING UP AND IF WATER GETS INTO THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND FREEZES IT MAY CAUSE THE BRAKES TO NOT WORK PROPERLY. I CALLED CHRYSLER TO COMPLAIN AND THEY DIDN'T SEEM TO FEEL CONCERNED AND JUST GAVE ME A CANNED STANDARD STATEMENT THAT IT IS A CONTROLLED RECALL. NOW IN THE MEANTIME I HAVE A 2ND RECALL P36/NHTSA 14V-391 (SUN VISOR VANITY LAMP WIRING) WHICH I AM ON ANOTHER WAITING LIST TO GET FIXED. IF SOMEONE CAN PLEASE RESPOND AND LET ME KNOW WHAT IS CONSIDERED A REASONABLE WAITING TIME FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER TO GET FIXED? IF MY DEALER CAN ONLY REPAIR 3-4 VEHICLES PER MONTH, IT MAY BE YEARS BEFORE ALL THE AFFECTED JEEPS ARE FIXED. *TR

Summary

I HAVE GOTTEN TWO SAFETY RECALLS FROM JEEP. THE FIRST ONE IS P14/NHTSA 14V-154 ( BRAKE BOOSTER MAY PREMATURELY CORRODE) AND THE SECOND IS P36/NHTSA 14V-391 ( SUN VISOR VANITY LAMP MAY EXPERIENCE HIGH RESISTANCE SHORT). I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS TO TRY TO GET MY CAR IN FOR THEM TO CHECK AND HAVE EITHER BEEN TOLD THEY DON'T HAVE THE PART OR ARE "TOO BUSY TO SERVICE MY CAR". I WAS EVEN TOLD AT HELFMAN DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP AND RAM IN HOUSTON (713)533-6100 THAT THEY COULDN'T SERVICE MY CAR BECAUSE THEY WERE TOO BUSY AND UNDER STAFFED AND THEN THE MAN SAID " I DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE, BUT IT'S TRUE". MY SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT ALSO CAME ON AT ONE POINT AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T TAKE MY CAR IN. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED WITH JEEP'S COSTUMER SERVICE.

OVER 2 MONTHS AND STILL NO PARTS FROM THE CHRYSLER GROUP?? TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE BY ANY STANDARD. WHEN I ASKED THE CALL CENTER REP TO TRANSFER ME TO A SUPERVISOR I WAS TOLD, THIS CALL DOES NOT WARRANT A SUPERVISOR. SERIOUS. I HOPE THEY DID RECORD THIS PHONE CALL TODAY TO VERIFY THAT I WAS TOLD "THIS PHONE CALL DOES NOT WARRANT A SUPERVISOR".

I RECEIVED A RECALL FROM CHRYSLER IN REFERENCE TO A SAFETY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM IS SPECIFIC TO THE BRAKE BOOSTER IN THAT THE SHELL MAY INGEST WATER IN WET CONDITIONS (RAIN, SNOW, FOG, WASHING THE CAR, ETC.) WHICH WOULD TOTALLY DISABLE ANY BRAKING FUNCTION FOR THE VEHICLE. THE INSTRUCTIONS WERE TO TAKE TO MY DEALER FOR REPAIR WHICH I DID MONTHS AGO. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER THE PARTS NECESSARY TO REPAIR HAVE NOT BEEN DELIVERED AND EVERY DEALERSHIP I CHECKED WITH HAVE A 200+ WAITING LIST OF CUSTOMERS WAITING FOR REPAIR PARTS TO BE DELIVERED. I'VE CALL CHRYSLER'S SUPPORT LINE LISTED ON THE RECALL NOTICE SEVERAL TIMES AND THE ONLY RESPONSE I GET IS THAT PARTS ARE ON THE WAY, WHICH IS THE SAME RESPONSE I'VE RECEIVED FOR MONTHS! WHO DO THEY HAVE MAKING THESE PARTS THAT IS TAKING SO LONG, AND ISN'T LOSING ALL BRAKING CAPABILITIES IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO MOVE UP ON THE PRIORITY LIST??? *TR

I RECEIVED A BRAKE BOOSTER SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN JUNE - P14 NHTSA 14V-154. I CALLED THE DEALER TODAY AUGUST 4TH TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPAIR ([XXX], TRAVERSE CITY, MI). THE DEALER SERVICE REP INFORMED ME THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS, ONLY GET MAYBE THREE PARTS A WEEK, AND SAID I COULD BE ON A WAITING LIST WHICH NOW HAS OVER 30 PEOPLE. I SAID AT THAT RATE IT COULD BE MONTHS BEFORE THE SAFETY RECALL IS COMPLETED. HE SAID HE HAD NO INFORMATION ABOUT WHEN THE REPAIR MIGHT HAPPEN AND AGREED THAT THEY (CHRYSLER) WERE NOT BEING VERY RESPONSIVE. I GOT ON A WAITING LIST AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL ME IF THEY GET ANY PARTS. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A SAFETY RECALL IF THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER CANNOT PROVIDE ANY SERVICE OR COMMITMENT?

Summary

PURCHASED THIS CAR, A 2013 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, IN SEPT 2012 BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER. IT CAME EQUIPPED WITH MICHELIN LATITUDE TOUR TIRES (P265/60/R18). I HAVE ONLY DRIVEN THIS CAR AROUND TOWN AND HAVE NEVER DONE ANY OFF ROAD DRIVING. AT ABOUT 20,000 MILES, I NOTICED THAT THE LEFT FRONT TIRE WAS NEARLY BALD. THE OTHER TIRES WERE WORN AS WELL BUT NOT AS BAD AS THE LEFT FRONT TIRE. I BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR. AFTER TESTING, THEY DETERMINED THAT THE ALIGNMENT WAS PERFECT AND THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE TIRES WAS PERFECT. THEY HAD NO EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THE LEFT FRONT TIRE IS NEARLY BALD. THEY TOLD ME TO CONTACT MICHELIN TIRES. I CONTACTED MICHELIN AND THEY INSTRUCTED ME TO TAKE THE CAR TO AN OFFICIAL MICHELIN TIRE DISTRIBUTOR AND HAVE THE TIRES INSPECTED. THE INSPECTOR TOLD ME THE TIRES ARE WORN ALL AROUND BUT HE HAD NO EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THE LEFT FRONT TIRE IS NEARLY BALD. HE SAID THE MICHELIN TIRES HAVE A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF SILICON AND THEY ARE SUBJECT TO ROAD HEAT. HE WENT ON TO SAY THAT EVEN IF HE FILLED OUT THE SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF PAPERWORK THAT MICHELIN REQUIRES, IT WAS NOT LIKELY I WOULD GET MUCH IF ANY MONEY FROM MICHELIN. I THEN CHECKED THE NHTSA WEBSITE AND FOUND THAT "SOME" OF THE MICHELIN LATITUDE TOUR TIRES (P265/60/R18) HAD BEEN RECALLED. I AM REGISTERING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I BELIEVE ALL OF THESE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE AND THE NHTSA NEEDS TO DO A COMPREHENSIVE INVESTIGATION BEFORE PEOPLE GET IN ACCIDENTS. *TR

MY PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN NOVEMBER OF 2012. I HIT THE IGNITION SWITCH AND THE CAR STARTS AND THEN DIES. I TRY TO HIT THE BUTTON AGAIN AND IT JUST CRANKS AND CRANKS AND WON'T START. THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT TO TURN ON IS TO CYCLE ON AND OFF THE IGNITION SWITCH AND TRY IT AGAIN. I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID UNLESS THEY CAN RECREATE THE ISSUE THEY CAN'T IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM, AND ALSO CLAIMED THEY DID RESEARCH AND COULDN'T COME UP WITH ANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND SENT ME HOME. I DID ABOUT FIVE MINUTES WORTH OF ONLINE RESEARCH AND FOUND THE TIPM ISSUE ALONG WITH COUNTLESS COMPLAINS ABOUT IGNITION SWITCH ISSUES. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND REPORTED MY FINDINGS. THEY WERE FAMILIAR WITH THE TIPM ISSUE, BUT SAID THEY CAN'T JUST REPLACE A PART UNLESS IT CAN BE PROVED THAT IS THE ISSUE. *TR

WE AVOIDED A NEAR FATAL COLLISION IF IT WASN'T FOR MY QUICK THINKING AND REMAINING CALM. I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO WESTBURY JEEP WHO TOLD ME NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE BRAKES AND RETURNED THE CAR TO ME, I THEN CONTINUED TO HAVE THE PROBLEM REOCCUR ON COLD DAYS WHEN THE TEMPERATURE WAS BELOW FREEZING. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOTHING AND NOW A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THE EXACT ISSUE I DESCRIBED AND THE DEALERSHIP STILL REFUSES TO REPAIR IT BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE THE PART.

Summary

2013 JEEP CHEROKEE LAREDO. THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER NEEDLES ARE DARK RED AGAINST A DARK SLATE/BLACK BACKGROUND. VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE UNDER NIGHTTIME CONDITIONS AND WHEN SUN SHINES INTO CAR FROM THE REAR. THIS IS ADDED TO THE FACT THAT THE INSTRUMENTS ARE ON THE SIDES OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND THAT THE STEERING WHEEL IS SMALL. CAN'T GET A FULL LOOK AT THESE INSTRUMENTS WITH BOTH EYES AT THE SAME TIME .... I. E. SERIOUSLY IMPACTED BINOCULAR VISION MEANS THAT IT IS EVEN MORE IMPORTANT THE NEEDLES BE OF A CONTRASTING COLOR TO THE BACKGROUND. ESPECIALLY SINCE MANY MALES ARE AT LEAST PARTIALLY RED-GREEN COLOR BLIND. THE SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS INCLUDE THAT IT TAKES LONGER TO READ THE SPEEDOMETER UNDER MAN Y DIFFERENT LIGHT CONDITIONS [EVEN WITHOUT COLOR VISION DEFICIENCIES] , WHICH MEANS THAT THE EYES ARE OFF THE ROAD LONGER AND THAT SPEEDING MAY BE A MORE COMMON AND INADVERTENT RESULT OF IT BEING HARDER TO READ THE GAUGES. *TR
