2017 Jeep Cherokee SUV 4WD

The contact owns a 2017 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle inadvertently stalled without warning. The vehicle was not taken to a local dealer to be diagnosed. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 63,000.

Heater hose broke while on the freeway causing all of the antifreeze to leak out and car to overheat with no warnings signs. Car started shaking and I pulled over and it shut off. Turns out the heater hose is made with two tubes connected toghether and the hose broke where the connect.

the electronic emergency brake engaged on its own. The car would not move and there was nothing I could do to get it out of park.

SERVICE SHIFTER, SERVICE 4WD, SHIFTER GETS PUT INTO GEAR IN ANY WEATHER UNDER 32 DEGREES F AND THE SHIFTER WILL NOT SHIFT INTO A PARTICULAR GEAR. ALL LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER WILL LIGHT UP. THE CAR WILL FREE REV. IF YOU LEAVE THE CAR RUNNING FOR 15 TO 30 MINUTES. THE ENGINE/TRANS/SERVOS WARM UP, AND THE CAR IS NOW ABLE TO SHIFT INTO GEAR. THIS ISSUE ONLY HAPPENS IN COLD WEATHER. WE HAVE LOST ALL CONVIDENCE IN DRIVING OUR CAR IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. WE'VE BROUGHT THE CAR TO JEEP, THEY REPLACED PARTS, REPLACED SHIFTER WIRING, ITS BEEN BACK TO JEEP DEALER 3 TIMES. THEY CANNOT FIX THE ISSUE. THERE SHOULD BE A ELECTRICAL SHIFTER OR WIRING HARNESS RECALL OF SOME KIND.

Message came up saying Service Shifter and all lights on shifter turned red. Happened several times. Made appointment to have it checked. Was told I needed new shifter and the part would take 7 to 10 days (took 10) and that I should not drive it as it could lock up in gear. After researching on line it appears this is a problem for many people and does not appear to be a recall item with so many complaints. It has been repaired costing nearly $1,000. I think this should be reviewed with so many others having the same problem.

Vehicle shifter service light keeps coming on causing vehicle to light up all of its shifter lights at the same time keeping it from engaging into gear any gear had to turn off and on for it to work

The contact owns a 2017 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 MPH, he noticed that the temperature gauge was increasing and then it decreased. An engine heater warning was displayed as the engine warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the brake pedal was depressed but the vehicle failed to stop as all motive power was lost. The vehicle rolled to a stop crashing into debris on the side of the roadway. The contact stated that there was no body damage to the vehicle. The contact stated that AAA was contacted and stated that they would contact the police however, the police did not show up. The vehicle was towed by AAA to the contact's residence. The contact stated that the AAA driver informed him of a recall that was related to the failure and the vehicle's PTU. The contact stated that the dealer was contacted to verify if the vehicle was included in a recall. The dealer informed the contact that the VIN was not included in a recall. The failure has not been diagnosed or repaired. The contact was relating the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V343000 (Power Train). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 75,000.

While driving down the street, my vehicle has started to automatically shift into neutral and the warning message, "must brake before shifting into gear" appears on my dash. I have to coast over to the side of the road in neutral, shift into park and turn my vehicle off before trying to restart. This has happened 4 or 5 times while I am actually driving down the road. When it is appearing to drive "normal" it has a warning message of "gear shift error" on the dash. So I paid a local mechanic to replace the entire gear shift component and my vehicle switched into neutral while I was driving again the next day. I am so nervous I will get into a wreck from this continuing to happen while driving my toddler around. I have not driven it since this happened right after picking it up from the shop. I then found a website listing a recall for my same year and make/model describing exactly what is currently happening with my vehicle. I called a local Jeep dealership about the recall and they told me since there was not a recall attached to my VIN number, they could not honor the recall. I am reporting this to you now to try and get my vehicle acknowledged and repaired under the recall. Here is the website where I found the recall: https://www.carscoops.com/2020/06/2014-2017-jeep-cherokee-recalled-over-serious-transmission-issues/

While driving at approximately 50 mph, the vehicles steering wheel locked, all lights on the dash came on and the car shut completely off. My daughter was able to slowly pump the breaks to stop because there was no traffic but had there been she could have been in a serious accident since the car completely shut down. This is a huge safety concern.

The contact owns a 2017 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the transmission would stall and rev loudly upon the depression of the accelerator pedal without warning. The contact had taken the vehicle to a dealer where a software update was performed on the vehicle; however, upon returning home from the dealer, the failure returned without warning. After multiple start-ups, the contact was able to drive the vehicle home. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was filed. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 55,000.

Service shifter message. Shifter lites turn all red. Screen on dash won't change when message is on.

When I turned the car off, the lights on the dashboard and ceiling stayed longer than the appropriate time. I went back to check and the dashboard went off but the ceiling stayed on. Next both lights were off but the dashboard came back on when I shut the door. It also randomly messages that the license plate light is out but works fine.

The gear shifter bezel and wiring all malfunctioned while I was driving. After reading up on the issues seems like this is a very common problem for jeeps. All lights on the shifter were lit up and I was unsure as to what gear I was in. This can be a major issue for any driver and should be recalled nationwide for fixing.

Car needs a whole new PTU Input Spline system. It has worn down. Is a known issue in other sales models.

As I am driving, the "service shifter" comes on and every gear on my vehicle lights up.

I bought a 2017 Jeep Cherokee latitude two weeks ago by the time I drove it home the service shifter light came on. I bought this car and it was certified free of defects this has happened a half a dozen times now I called the dealer and told them about it and I saw what the fix was online. The fixe is to put in a new shifter bezel and a new wiring harness. The dealer refuses to do this and the vehicle is certified what can I do?

When stopping to turn the engine cut out while we were attempting to turn left. The car then alerted us to put the car into neutral to start ( Shift To Park Or Neutral Press Break + Select Gear.) We attempted to do as much in the middle of the intersection we were stuck in, posing a safety risk since we were in the middle of a left hand turn with on coming traffic. The lights, radio and dash were working at this point. We put the car into neutral and pushed it safely out of intersection and attempted to restart the engine, at this point the engine wouldn't turn over and there were no alerts. I called AAA for assistance. The service man who came out jumped my battery and got the car started. He informed me he gets many calls about Jeep Cherokees doing this and if a jump doesn't work he ends up towing the vehicle. I was able to drive the Jeep Cherokee back home since I didn't live too far away but as soon as I turned off my vehicle and tried to restart it the engine refused to turn over again and I got a check engine light. I attempted to start the Jeep Cherokee the next morning and was given a change oil soon message but nothing else, the engine wouldn't turn over, I called AAA for a tow to the mechanic. The next day the mechanic called me letting me know the car started right up for him and he changed my oil. He then ran diagnostics to see if anything came up. Nothing did, he also test drove it three times and started it six times to make sure it was running and told me that everything seemed OK but he read online that low oil levels will make Cherokee engines abruptly stop working. He advised me to check my oil before starting my car every time and report the issues here.

Service Shifter Light on at 50,000 miles

Vehicle would not shift into drive after backing out of driveway. Had to stop after rolling down hill and shift to park, then back to drive again to get the vehicle in gear. Service shifter light was repaired at the dealership 6 or 7 months ago. That problem has returned as well.

Service Shifter at approx. 27000 - all my gear lights red and the screen was locked to Service Shifter

The "Service shifter" notification continues to come on while driving. All shifter lamps light up which scares the driver not knowing what gear you are in. The driver has to pull over to turn off the vehicle and turn it back on to clear the notification and light. On busy Interstates and Highways, this puts my family at risk! I have found that there are many forums out there for jeeps 2014 to present that have had these issues for years without a clear fix. Some have stated they have spent $$$ without resolution. I just called a jeep dealership about my issue and they told me that they would have to charge me over $150 to confirm that I'm having this issue before addressing it! If this is a continued flaw or issue with the vehicle, why hasn't it be addressed and resolved before some is hurt or worse?

Ever few thousand miles, a ding will occur and a service light will come on along with a message stating, service shifter. P R D N L, light up on the shifter and will not turn of until a complete shutdown of vehicle.

Shifter lights up in red and it flashes a warning sign of "service shifter."

Drove approximately two miles and stopped the vehicle. Less than five minutes later start the car again. After three to five seconds the engine stalled. Vehicle was parked in a flat parking lot. It was about 55 degrees and clear this morning. I can no longer count the number of times this has happened on my hands.

After the vehicle stalled I waited a minute and tried to start the vehicle again. The engine started and came up with the error "Service Shifter." The status lights for all the gears were red. The vehicle was parked on a flat parking lot and it was 55 degrees outside. The vehicle had previously run fine a few minutes before.

The contact owns a 2017 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. The contact stated while driving at 40 MPH and going up a hill, the vehicle inadvertently stalled. The contact stated he veered the side of the road and switched gears to park. The contact stated as soon as he exited the vehicle, the vehicle rolled down and ran over his right arm. The contact stated his wife who was sitting in the passenger seat promptly depressed the brake pedal with her hands and the vehicle stopped. The contact sustained a bruised wrist but did not seek medical assistance. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who diagnosed that the power transfer unit had failed and the failure was related to the recall for NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V343000 (POWER TRAIN). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that they would follow up with the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 128,000.

I was driving like normal about 15 mph after just pulling out of the gas station onto the main road and have no issues with my car as of late and all of a sudden it just stopped. All the lights lite up on the shift, every light lite up on the dash saying everything needed to be serviced, I was unable to move or do anything with the car, not even turn it off and i was in the middle of the road! Luckily no one was behind me and I was still able to engage my hazards. After about 10 min's my car turned off on it's own. I sat for another 10 before finally being able to turn it back on and move it to the side of the road and eventually get it back to my house 2 miles away. Clearly this is a serious safety issue and is not ok, especially the fact that my car was bought brand new and is not even 5 years old!

Initially started with parking brake coming on and it took 15 mins of pushing and pulling the button/switch and turning car on and off. Then service air bags light came on. Next was saying passenger and driver seat belts not buckled even tho both were buckled. Then abs light came on. Mechanic determined it was OCR sensor located under center console. Apparently can only get part from jeep and its $400. Ordered and the Jeep wont recognize it so replacement had to be ordered. Now tire pressure light is on as well. Says front driver and rear passenger are low even tho all tires are at 34psi. The seat belt dinging is constant even tho belts are buckled. I have no cruise control. Over past 2 weeks have had the parking brake issue twice. The rest of issues are constant. So now driving around waiting on part with constant worry my parking brake will engage. Other issues are inconvenient and annoying but the brake and airbags are saftey issues. Also my odometer blinks constant too.

While on I95 SB getting ready to exit to 295W the pickup in front of me jammed on his brakes. I hit my brakes, realized I would not stop in time, I pressed harder on the brake and went into a skid and impacted the pickups right rear. Why did the anti skid stop working after applying more pressure? Dealer claims if the brakes were pumped it could have confused the system. ??????

Frequent service shifter light comes on but goes away after restarting car, transmission slipping

When turning the key in the ignition the vehicle will sometimes not start. The engine does not try to turn over or engage.

After turning the key in the ignition the engine will start. After three to five seconds the engine stalls out.

The shifting of the vehicle is erratic. Sometimes when accelerating it will not change gears, redlining before it eventually does shift, lurching the car forward. This can take an extremely long time for the car to shift like it should and is a safety concern in traffic as others are not expecting this odd behavior. It can cause issues when trying to accelerate and merge on to the highway. Multiple dealerships have indicated that they hear this from owners all the time but that Chrysler has provided no resolution. The manufacturer has refused on multiple occasions to inspect the vehicle. At 1200 miles the check engine light came on. The dealership indicated the transmission was faulty and needed to be replaced but Chrysler refused to replace it.

I started my vehicle and when I selected the drive gear all the red lights came on every gear. The service shifter warning came on the dash. I couldn’t move the vehicle for a week. The electronic parking brake start flashing on and off. I had this happen once before on vacation. I took it to the dealer in Vancouver Washington and they claim to have done a flash update, and took my brand new battery that was only three months old. Replaced it with the Mopar battery with less cold cranking amps, and charged me for it. Also, they refused to give me my battery back.

I went into a ditch hit two trees and a culvert before stopping and no airbags were deployed My 2017 jeep is a total loss lucky I didn’t receive any major injuries , a laceration to my face quick need to be closed and brusing and scrapes. Mentally I am not okay know it could have been with my children in the vehicle but that day it was just myself

I have a photo of this sticker. Inside on the car's body frame of the driver's side of my 2017 JEEP, there is a sticker that says: THIS VEHICLE MAY INCLUDE MERCURY -- added devices installed by the manufacturer: Video display (which I have to touch to operate the radio and phone call free feature) Navigation/Camera Display (which I have to touch to operate the radio and phone call free feature) HDI Headlamps (which I touch when I wash my car) Remove devices before vehicle's disposal. Upon removal of devices, please reuse, recycle or dispose as hazardous waste. When I travel (on a straight road like Interstate 5 in Washington and Oregon) for more than 3 hours, I get nauseous, dizzy, and do not feel well for hours afterwards. This has been an on-going scenario. I had asked my mechanic to check the AC system, clean all of the vents, and replace the filters and it still did not fix my reaction to driving in the car or being just a passenger. This is unacceptable! Please recall and rectify this hazardous situation immediately among all owners of a 2017 JEEP. Why it is always in the hands of the consumer to make things right? Why can't corporations just do the right thing for its customers and the earth? This blatant irresponsibility and corporate greed is getting so old.

Car stalls without warning or indicator lights and will not restart in a safe manner. There are dozens of reports concerning this situation online and it is a SERIOUS safety issue that has received no attention. There is apparently and “incomplete” notice from JEEP that has failed to reach all customers. This has now happened to me three times — 2 of which were in situations that created significant safety risk.

My service shifter will lock up and the gear shift will read that my car is in park, reverse, neutral, drive all at the same time. My dash will read “service shifter” however it has been doing that since I purchased it. The wheels on the car will jerk and lock up. Luckily, I am not going fast and can safely pull over. The car will sputter and act like it is struggling to go. I have had everything checked and all other recalls fixed. When I mentioned it to the service department, they said they could replace the part but it doesn’t guarantee that it will fix the issue. He gave me a quote to fix it and said the part is on back order or may be recalled soon. If it isn’t in the process it needs to be before it takes someone’s life. When I have checked social media it appears that multiple people are having the same issue.

I was driving and my car just stop on the freeway out of no where, no warning, no lights on absolutely nothing, it wouldn't start, after a couple minutes it started up again. later that day the same thing happened. Thank God an accident did not happen specially when it stop on the freeway.

While driving the warning chimed with a “service shifter” message on the dashboard screen. All of the lights (P, D, N, R) were light in the shift indicator. Due to the warning message I was not able to see any other information on my dash. I wasn’t sure if I could even keep driving leading me to panic for fear that I couldn’t even put the car in park. After some research I have come to find this is a recurring problem with 2014-2019 Jeep Cherokees. Since this occurred on a weekend I intend on leaving the car parked for safety and calling a dealership Monday morning.

The Service Shifter warning comes on the dash and all of the LED's on the shifter turn red. It used to only happen when the vehicle was turned on. We would shut off the car and restart it and it would go away. Lately, it's been getting progressively worse. We have to turn off the car and restart it multiple times, sometimes running it through the gears to get the warning to go off. But, now it's turning on while driving. We haven't been to the dealership yet, but there are numerous complaints about SERVICE SHIFTER on the 2017 Jeep Cherokee. I hope they don't wait too long to issue a recall.

Engine mounts broke and engine drop on excel dealership say mounts broke no warning light just heard a thump going about 25 mph then loud noise and rough engine. afraid to drive any further had a burn smell called tow truck sent to dealer.

answers to the question and detailed description is below - the car completely shutdown while driving. - as the car shutdown while driving in the traffic, it was a major safety concern. - yes, service center told me it is just due to the battery - yes, by the authorized service center - no warning is appeared before the incident. I have a 2017 Cherokee purchased 2.5 years ago, 25.000 km and having regular service every 6 months. Just 100 km after i serviced the car, it shutdown while driving !!! The authorized service checked the car and the issue was just the battery. Generally when you have battery issue the car will not start without a jumper / booster but will not shutdown while driving at all. For Cherokee, it shutdown while driving !. Jeep service manager informed me that due to the used technology Cherokee can shutdown while driving when the battery finish (which is generally not the case in other cars). When i asked why the manufacturer didn't get any precaution for this, they mentioned that only Grand Cherokee has auxilary battery as a precaution and it is not obliged by the government and they just get some cases which is not enough to make a recall.

“Service Shifter” message appears and all gears (P, R, N, D, etc.) light up on the gear shift. I purchased my vehicle brand new and this has been happening since 28K miles. When I contacted the dealership, I was told it was not covered under warranty or a recall; it would cost about $400 with parts and labor to repair. I was also told if I did not repair it, that it could eventually turn into a safety hazard where my engine would lock up and stall and I would be stranded on the side of the road and it would not start up again. What happens if this is occurs on the highway. This is a safety issue that needs to be addressed. Others all across the nation are experiencing the exact same problem. https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/Discussion-t68742_ds990296

Getting frequent SERVICE SHIFTER messages on dash board display. Repaired at a Jeep dealership previously, did not fix problem.

Just bought the Jeep with 78,000 miles. Haven't made a payment and the service shifter message keeps coming up as well as service start stop system.

On the morning of 8/11/21, my 2017 Jeep Cherokee turned off on its own while I was still parked in my driveway. I took the key out and waited several seconds before turning the car on again. The car appeared to function correctly - no warning lights or messages. I went on to start my usual 30-minute commute to work. Approximately 15-minutes into that commute, a "service shifter" message appeared on the dashboard. The gear shift lights all turned red. I immediately pulled over and put the vehicle in park. The gear shift lights were all still red and I was only able to confirm that my vehicle was in park via the dashboard. This put my safety at risk as I did not know if my vehicle would remain in drive or if it would change to reverse as I attempted to safely pull over. Luckily, I was alone and my young child was not in the vehicle with me. After safely pulling over and parking, I took the key out and let the vehicle sit for nearly a minute. I turned the vehicle back on and everything appeared to be back to normal. I immediately called my local Jeep dealership to seek service advice and was told that this is a common issue. I asked if my vehicle was safe to drive now that the message was not appearing on the dash. I was told it was NOT safe to drive but to call them the next time the warning message appeared and they would TRY to schedule me for service. No service appointments were available for the next two weeks so there was nothing they could do to help me. This response is grossly irresponsible and putting vehicle owners at risk. A quick Google search will uncover that this is a known issue and Jeep has done nothing to issue a recall.

While driving the service shifter light pops on

Service shift warning message. Same as the complaints already filed by other people. Happens too often. Dealership never fixes the issue but wants to charge even though it will continue to happen .

Service shifter indicator lights on console & display. Comes on while driving & scared to drive due to not knowing if it will fail & cause an accident and/or fatality

On July 3, 2021 I stopped at STOP sign, then when I stepped on the gas car wasn't moving, when I looked at the gear shift I noticed all the lights are on, all P R N D AND "-" AND "+" NEXT TO THE GEAR (PICTURE ATTACHED). Then I stopped the engine and restarted the car to move on. On July 16, 2021 I took the car for oil change and showed the picture to the mechanic at the JEEP Service Center in Morgan Hill California (on Church Street in Morgan Hill, CA). The service guy said we know this problem it is a recall, he said it is wiring harness problem for the gear, he said they will fix it when they receive the part at no cost. Then, on July 26, 2021 I went back to see if they have received the part to fix the problem This time the service guy said it is not covered, JEEP will not pay for it. Well, if it is electrical wiring harness problem why should I pay for it. Such thing is a design/manufacturing problem, it is not wear and tear. Why should I pay for the problem created by manufacturers fault. Such electrical problem could well cause for an accident Please inform me what should I do? is it a recall? or is a new recall candidate?

SERVICE SHIFTER - I RESEARCHED THE PROPBLEM AND APPRENTLY THERE IS A FAULTY ERROR WITH A LOT OF JEEP CHEROKEE IN REGARDS OF THIS MATTER PLEASE INVISTIGATE. THANK YOU

Service shifter warning. Car stalled twice. It has 45 k miles only. Won't start on first try.

My service shifter light came on and all the lights on the shifter console came on (PRND21). At first, I could turn the car off to reset it. This was dangerous because I had to pull over wherever I was. As time has gone on it pretty much stays on. My car has 33000 miles on it but is past the 3-year mark. I took it to the dealership and they told me the previous years had this problem but was recalled. It cost me $500.00 to replace a plastic bezel. I have saved all dealership repair paperwork. The dealership confirmed this is a very common problem.

My car completely cut off while driving it on 2 separate occasions on 6/14 & 6/29. I was going 15-20 mph and slowing down for a stop light both times. The car just cut off without any warning. Once I put it in park I was able to start it back up without a problem. I took it to get serviced and the shop said there were multiple faulty computer codes so they reset the system. They advised me to call the dealership to see if there is a recall. I called a dealership and there is not a recall. They told me to bring it in so they could do a diagnostic test and check the fuel system. The earliest appointment at 2 dealerships I called is a month out and if I scheduled a drop-off appointment that could be done in about 7-10 days.

While driving the Service Shifter prompt came on and all the lights on the gear box turned red. The safety risk when this prompt came on is huge as you are driving and trying not to panic as you don't know if the car will stall or stop suddenly. MANY other people with Jeeps have experienced this problem. There should be a recall for this issue. This vehicle has under 25,000 miles. I went to the dealership and was informed the parts are not covered under warranty. It was confirmed the Bezel and Wire Harness will have to be replaced which the dealership did on 6/24/2021. The vehicle was only inspected by the dealership. No other warnings or dashboard messages prior to 6/23/2021.

I received an engine shutoff signal which disabled the car immediately without prior warning. It was due to the protection signal for low oil. The vehicle had a oil change 5,000 miles prior with synthetic oil. Over the course of 5,000 miles it "burned" the oil to the point of low level. Upon discovery, I noted many customer complaints (online) of this issue. There was no prior warning to the low oil level (no low pressure light or indicator.) I purchased this vehicle for my daughter and had she been driving on a busy highway, it would have disabled her car without any power to safely navigate this from the road, probably leading to a major accident. A newer vehicle with no mechanical issues does not "burn" oil excessively, this is a major engine issue. Some oil loss is understood and normal (in older cars), this newer vehicle used over 3 quarts of oil in the span of one oil change. Had I known about this issue, I would have been vigilant in monitoring this issue. Not knowing about this issue led to a very unsafe shutdown of the vehicle.

The vehicle didn’t have any warning lights or messages on dashboard. Someone ran a red light and hit my car while we were both going over 40mph and my airbags didn’t deploy but there’s did.. my car got towed as it wasn’t drivable anymore and was told the airbags where suppose to deploy but they didn’t.

The Jeep is used as a flat tow vehicle with our 2004 Monaco RV. On June 8, we left Ducket Mill Campground in Dawsonville GA to return home to Cincinnati OH. The vehicle was attached to the RV with the Blue Ox Flat Tow system. The four tires on the Jeep were checked and were all rolling. We followed the instructions in the manual, which were also the instructions given to us by the RV dealer who did the installation. One hour and a half after we left, the Jeep started smoking. A truck driver who passed our vehicle pulled off the side of the road yelled that the parking brake was on and needed to be turned off. Upon checking, there were two flat, chewed up tires. We were towed to a tire dealer in Ellijay GA to have repaired. We have one of the tires. That night, we found a Jeep salesman from 2017 on YouTube explaining the parking brake had to be disengaged to make sure there were no problems in flat towing. This was the first we had heard of this problem. We checked in the manual, and the only mention was that the electronic parking brake can be disengaged. No other warning. When we got home, we had the Jeep into the dealer. They could find nothing wrong with the parking brake system. They DROVE the car, but dd not flat tow it. The person at the tire store showed us how the tire was worn and torn up in a small area, probably caused by the parking brake engaging. Since we were not in the car and the car worked fine for an hour and 1/2 (not to mention the entire way down from Cincinnati to Dawsonville), we believe the parking brake engaged by itself as we drove through the mountains.

My daughter was driving her car. It started "jerking". She pulled into a parking lot because she was worried. Her granddad went to pick it up and it drove fine for him. He said the parking brake was on- she did NOT put the parking brake on. I drove it down the street the next day- it jerked then also- and then stopped in the middle of the road. I was able to get it started back up and pull into my driveway. The next day my husband got it towed to a repair shop. It wouldn't work at all! The shop says it needs the transmission rebuilt or a new one. I feel my daughter's safety was at risk, because she is a newly turned 16 year old driver. If she had been driving it when it completely stopped it could have been bad. There were no warning lamps or messages beforehand- except that the parking brake was on- when it was not.

SERVICE SHIFTER. The Shift Bezel keeps going out. I reading that is happening to a lot of other people only had this car 2 months. The gear shifter Bezel lights up all red and service shifter shows up on the dashboard.

Randomly weekly multiple times the car screen says service shifter across dash screen. Which causes most of the gauges to be hidden and a huge distraction. The car will not stop saying this message until you pull over and shut it off. After restarting the car is back to normal. I contacted local dealer about this issue multiple times and they said they know of the issue happening to this model but there is no fix for it at this time.

Vehicle has 42,000 miles on it passenger side front exhaust pipe has broken at the flex joint. Vehicle is strictly road driven and garaged when not in use. Part# 68110128AC

Hello, In March I received a performed recall W84 for my 2017 Jeep Cherokee. A recall W84 the PCM and TCM modules. Since then I have had on the cluster a warning light which came on stating 'Service Shifter'. When this happened, all the lights on the shifter turned red. This happened when driving. This was a intermittent issue that was becoming more consistent. I went to McKevitt for reparation. It costed me $735! $360 for diagnosis, $120 for parts and $235 for labor!

When breaking or turning on multiple occasions the vehicle shifts into neutral and turns off. It then stalls until it is switched on again.

Went to start my car and it didn't start. There was no cranking at all. Took it to the mechanic after jumping car. Mechanic called back few hours later. Said electrical is draing the power. Lucky I didn't loose my alternator. There was no one hurt and no sign of this happening before hand. Only the mechanic i took it too has checked it

At traffic stop light, vehicle transmission disengaged and acted as though in a neutral or park position even though shift position was in drive. Warning lights indicated "Service Shifter". Placed shifter into park and turned off engine. Restarted and placed shifter into drive. Appeared to drive normally to destination. Next engine start, warning indicator of Service Shifter returned with no apparent drive issues. Next engine start, warning indicator did NOT appear.

SERVICE SHIFTER APPEARS ON DASH BOARD. CAR KEEPS STALLING AND TELLS ME TO TO PUT IN SHIFT GEAR. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND RESTART MY CAR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED INDEPENDENTLY, WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON ONE OCCASION THE BRAKE ENGAGED WHILE DRIVING AT 25 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FLEMINGTON DODGE JEEP (204 HIGHWAY 202/31, FLEMINGTON, NJ 08822, (800)796-9902). THE DEALER INSPECTED THE STAR CONNECTORS AND FOUND MULTIPLE PINS WITH CORROSION. THE DEALER CLEANED THE STAR CONNECTER AND ADDED DI-ELECTRIC GREASE TO THE CONNECTORS. THE IPE AND IP3 HAD LOSE PINS IN THE CONNECTORS. THE PINS WAS REPAIRED AND SECURED INTO THE CONNECTOR HOWEVER, THE REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE DEALER REFUSED TO PROVIDE THE CONTACT WITH FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO WELSH JEEP CHRYSLER (36 DUMONT RD, FAR HILLS, NJ, 07931, (908)234-0109) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE PARKING BRAKE WAS ENGAGING INDEPENDENTLY. ADDITIONALLY, THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE FOUR-STAR CONNECTORS AND PLUGS WERE INCORRECTLY CONNECTED AND THERE WAS NO DE-ELECTRIC GREASE ON THE CONNECTORS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 51,994.

DRIVING 45MPR SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON, ALL GEARS P.R.N,D L LIGHTS COMES ON CAR JERKS WHEN POSITIONING IN AND OUT OF PARK

'SERVICE SHIFTER' MESSAGE COMES ON AND ALL LIGHTS LIGHT UP ON THE SHIFTER WHILE DRIVING.

THE "SERVICE SHIFTER" COMES ON AT RANDOM TIMES. THE VEHICLE MUST BE RESTARTED TO CLEAR THE CODE.

MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE DISPLAYS "SERVICE SHIFTER". I'VE SEEN MULTIPLE ONLINE REVIEWS/COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE, YET THIS $900 TO REPAIR ISSUE HAS NOT BECOME A RECALL. WHAT RECOURSE DO WE ALL HAVE AND WHY WON'T JEEP FIX THIS ONGOING PROBLEM? THE MESSAGE HAS BEEN GOING ON/OFF INTERMITTENTLY SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN 2019, HOWEVER, AT THAT TIME, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID IT PROBABLY WASN'T CRITICAL TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AT THAT TIME. NOW, THEY'RE SAYING THE SHIFTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON.

JEEP WILL STALL WHILE DRIVING. ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF, LOSE POWER STEERING, CANNOT ACCELERATE TO TRY TO GET OUT OF HARMS WAY, BATTERY, OIL AND ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND RECEIVE A MESSAGE SAYING TO "SHIFT TO PARK OR NEUTRAL TO START THE VEHICLE". IF YOU WANT A COUPLE MINUTES THE JEEP STRUGGLE TO TURNOVER BUT EVENTUALLY WILL. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY!!!! THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE!!! IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME 6 TIMES IN THE PAST 3 WEEKS. IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING AND OCCURS WITHOUT WARNING ON ANY STREET OR HIGHWAY, TURNING OR BRAKING.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT FREQUENTLY ON.

SERVICE SHIFTER CONTINUES TO POP UP

DOESN'T SEEM TO BE TURNING RIGHT. A LOT OF CLICKING MAKING NOISE WHEN I BACK UP. AND TURN WHEEL.

THE CAR IS CONSTANTLY STALLING WHILE DRIVING AND THEN SHUTTING OFF IMMEDIATELY. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I AM ON THE EXPRESSWAY OR SIDE STREETS. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED TWO DAYS IN A ROW. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS! LITERALLY HAVE TO SIT STRANDED IN A PLACE UNTIL THE CAR STARTS BACK UP. YESTERDAY APR 2, 2021, IT STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF 57TH AND COTTAGE GROVE IN CHICAGO AND TODAY APT 3, 2021, IT STALL ON INTERSTATE 80 AT THE CALUMET EXIT HEADING WEST, WITH MY CHILD IN THE CAR... REGULAR MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN DONE. NEW OIL CHANGE AND STILL STALLS AND SHUTS OFF. IT'S HAPPENING ONCE A WEEK AND THE DEALERSHIP ACTS LIKE THEY HAVE NO IDEA. TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN APPOINTMENT ON 4/13!

OUR SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT STARTED COMING ON PERIODICALLY AT AROUND 20K MILES. IT HAS HAPPENED NO LESS THAT 10 TIMES NOW. THIS IS PROBLEMATIC SINCE IT WILL HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING AND THE POWERTRAIN WILL SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL CAUSING THE DRIVER TO HAVE TO PULL OVER WHILE IN TRAFFIC. I TALKED TO THE JEEP DEALER WHO SAID THIS IS OUT OF THE BUMPER TO BUMPER 3 YEAR/36K WARRANTY AND NOT COVERED BY THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AND THE GEAR SHIFT LIGHTS ARE ALL RED,P,R,N,D, THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER AND GOES NUETRAL. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF POSTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. SEE HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T68742_DS990296 . HOW CAN THIS NOT BE A RECALL OR COVERED UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY? DOES MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER NEED TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN AND THEN GET PLOWED INTO BY A TRUCK TO MAKE YOU OR JEEP TAKE ACTION? PLEASE DO WHAT IS RIGHT AND SAFE FOR ALL OF US JEEP OWNERS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE.

WHEN DRIVING MY SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON ALL THE GEARS ARE LITE UP RED THE PARK REVERSE NEUTRAL AND DRIVE I HAVE TO PULL OVER KILL THE ENGINE THEN WAIT A FEW SECONDS THEN RESTART IT BUT IT CONTINUE TO COME ON AT LEAST 2 TIMES A DAY THROUGH OUT THE WEEK

WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 395 TRAVELING NORTH FROM SPOKANE, WA, WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 60 MPH, AFTER CRESTING A LOW HILL AND DESCENDING THE HILL MY CAR'S ENGINE BEGAN RACING THE RPM WENT TO 4500 RPM AND I COULDN'T GET IT TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP BY BRAKING OR CHANGING THE CRUISE CONTROL. MY CAR GOT TO 80 MPH WHEN I FINALLY GOT THE CRUISE CONTROL TO DISENGAGE BY PRESSING CANCEL AGAIN WHILE BRAKING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. IT'S VERY SCARY. I'M AFRAID TO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL IN MY CAR.

WHEN ACCELERATING IT FEELS LIKE THE ENGINE IS NOT SENDING ENOUGH POWER AS IF THE TRANSMISSION WAS ON A HIGHER GEAR AND ALSO THUDS AS IF THE TRANSMISSION WAS HAVING TROUBLE SHIFTING.

THE JEEP HAS 42K MILES. RECENTLY THE CAR SUDDENLY, WITHOUT ANY WARNING JUST QUIT WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME IN 3 WEEKS THIS HAPPENED. 5K MILES AGO I GOT AN SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGE GOOD FOR 10K MILES. AT APPROX. 5K MILES WAS WHEN THE ENGINE STARTED TO DIE. I CONTACTED DEALER IN ELIZABETHTOWN KY AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAD HAPPENED. HE APPARENTLY WAS AWARE THAT FOR EVERY 1K MILES, A QUART OF OIL WAS USED. THIS WAS NEVER TOLD TO ME AND YET KNOWING THIS, THE DEALER TOLD ME I HAD TO HAVE THE 10K MILE OIL KNOWING I WOULD NEVER REACH THAT. HE SAID THERE WAS SOME TYPE OF RECALL ON A SENSOR THAT UNTIL THEY COULD SCHEDULE ME IN, I NEEDED TO POUR OIL INTO THE ENGINE WHICH I DID. MY LIFE WAS PLACED IN DIRE JEOPARDY. AND I WAS NEVER MADE AWARE OF THIS OBSCENE USAGE OF OIL BY THIS MODEL. IF THE ENGINE BLOCK HAD CRACKED DUE TO THIS-THAN WHAT?

SERVICE SHIFTER RANDOMLY COMES ON AND CAUSES SCREEN TO LOCK AND LIGHTS UP THE SHIFTER. THIS HAPPENS WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AT INTERMEDIATE TIMES WHILE DRIVING AND ALL THE PRND LIGHTS COME ON. SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND TURN BACK ON AND IT'S GOOD FOR A WHILE.

SERVICE SHIFTER INDICATOR CAME ON

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON AND GEAR SHIFT LIGHTS ARE ALL RED,P,R,N,D

MY BACK GATE/ TRUCK WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE AT ALL I PRESS THE BUTTON ON MY KEYS AND THE BUTTON ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE GATE/TRUNK AND NOTHING THE ONLY WAS I CAN OPEN IT, IS IF WE CLAIM ON THE BACK AND MANUELING OPEN IT , WE TRIED EVERYTHING AND IT DOESN'T OPEN.

SHIFTER SENSOR LIGHTS KEEPS COMING ON AND ALL LIGHTS ON SHIFTER LIGHT UP RED, WHILE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. I HAVE TO STOP TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT TO PROCEED.HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR.

FACTORY INSTALLED TOW PACKAGE SIGNALS WHERE NOT ACTIVATED. HAD TO BRING TO DEALER AFTER TRYING TO SAFELY USE A TRAILER. DEALER HAD TO CONTACT JEEP STAR/BCM. TO ACTIVATE THE SYSTEM. DEFECT HAS PRESENT FROM DAY ONE, DID NOT HAD A REASON TO USE THE SYSTEM UNTIL NOW. DEALER ALSO DID NOT DETECT IN THE PRE-CUSTOMER RELEASE OF THE VEHICLE.

KEEP GETTING MESSAGE TO SERVICE SHIFTER AND DISPLAYS ON DASH CONTINUOUSLY ALL LIGHT ON SHIFTER LIGHT. SEEMS TO SHIFT VERY HARD WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET WITH MANY DIFFERENT YEARS OF VEHICLES. STARTED LAST YEAR 2019. STILL DOING AS OF TODAY 3/15/2021

I WAS AT AN INTERSECTION STOPPED YESTERDAY AND MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED LOST ALL POWER STEERING, AND BRAKES. DASHBOARD FLASHED 'CAR MUST BE IN NEUTRAL OR PARK TO SHIFT GEARS' AND WOULDN'T GO FORWARD, STARTED ROLLING BACKWARDS UNTIL I PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. TURNED OFF THE CAR TO TRY TO RESET IT AND TOOK A LONG TIME TO TURN OVER. WENT OUT WITH IT AGAIN THIS MORNING AND SAME THING BUT GOING ABOUT 20MPH. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE AS I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE CAR!!!!

BURNS THOUGH OIL LIKE A CHEAP ALCOHOLIC. USUALLY 1 QUART IS BURNED OFF EVERY 1000 MILES. THIS WAS SOMETHING I WAS NOT AWARE OF WHEN I PURCHASED THE JEEP. WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED, INITIALLY I WAS TOLD IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THE SHIFTER. SO THAT WAS A $500 REPAIR. LATER I FOUND OUT THAT 2017 JEEP CHEROKEES HAVE A UNIQUE ABILITY TO DRINK OIL. IF FCA IS AWARE, AND NOT FIXING THE ISSUE, THATS BULL CRAP. I HAVE AN OLDER CAR WITH A SIMILAR ENGINE AND CAN PUT 10,000 MILES BETWEEN OIL CHANGES W/O AN ISSUE.

EVERY TIME YOU HIT A BUMP YOU HEAR A RATTLE OR A LOUD CLUMP NOISE ! IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS FALLING APART OR LOSE : STRUTS HAVE TO BE CHANGED A LOT ON THIS VEHICLE ! NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT STRUTS BEING BAD !

I JUST PURCHASED MY CAR JANUARY 4, 2021. I HAVE HAD IT CUT OFF ON ME 4 TIMES. LIKE SHUT COMPLETELY OFF AND IT TAKES LIKE 10 TO 15 MINUTES TO ACTUALLY START BACK UP. THE SHIFT GEARS MESSAGE POPS UP, IT CUT THE TRACTION CONTROL AUTOMATICALLY OFF SO THAT LIGHT POPS UP. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT POPS UP. I DONT KNOW WHATS HAPPENING BUT IT ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCDIDENT TWICE ON 695 HIGHWAY BECAUSE IT SHUT OFF. THANK GOD THE KIDS WERE NOT WITH ME AT THE TIME. I AM READING THAT HIS HAPPENS TO ALOT OF PEOPLE WITH JEEPS. WISH I WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT BEFORE PURCHASING. I JUST WANT A SAFE AND RELIABLE SUV FOR ME AND MY CHILDREN.

SO I GOT MY CAR IN APRIL 7, 2020. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP FOR THE PAST COUPLE MONTHS. TO MY ENGINE STALLING OUT TO MY CAR NOT. SHIFT THAT RIGHT WAY. A NEW TRANSMISSION WAS PUT IN JANUARY 2021. MY ELECTRIC STUFF IN THE CAR GOES IN AND OUT ALL THE TIME. SO IT M MESS UP THE COMPUTERS THIS CAR HAS NOW HAD 4 NEW COMPUTERS PUT IN THE CAR AND I'M STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT. AND IT DOES THIS ANYWHERE ON HIGHWAY CITY STREET.

WHEN DRIVING AND MAKING A RIGHT OR LEFT TURN, AN ERROR MESSAGE POPS UP ON THE SCREEN STATING CAN NOT SWITCH GEARS WHILE IN DRIVE, THEN THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF, IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME 6+ TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH, IT HAS HAPPENED IN THE MIDDLE OF A LEFT TURN IN A BUSY INTERSECTION 3 TIMES AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. ONCE CAR IS SHUT OFF AND YOU GIVE IT A MINUTE, WHEN YOU RESTART IT TAKES TIME TO TURN OVER. THIS IS SO UNSAFE AND I AM AFRAID EVERY TIME I DRIVE AS I DRIVE MY DAUGHTER IN THIS VEHICLE AND THINK THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR SURE. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC THEY TEST DROVE AND HAD THE SAME ISSUE TWICE, THEY RAN DIAGNOSTICS AND NOTHING CAME UP, WHEN THEY RESEARCHED IT THEY FOUND THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE AND SAID I SHOULD TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY READ THAT IT MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE OIL BEING USED TO QUICKLY AND WHEN THE TURN OCCURS IT SUCKS IN AIR. PLEASE HELP!!!

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON. CAR JERKS. DRIVING.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER WORDS POP UP ON MY SCREEN. THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFT (PRND) LIGHT UP RED. THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON WHY THEY POP ON, THEY JUST RANDOMLY POP ON.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON WHENEVER I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR JEEP CHEROKEE OWNERS.

OIL FILTER HOUSING/COOLER LEAKS AND POOLS OIL ON TOP OF ENGINE. PART NUMBER 68105583AF. OIL DRAINS DOWN EITHER SIDE OF THE ENGINE. IT IS A PLASTIC PART THAT CAN EASILY FAIL DUE TO DEALER OVER LIGHTNING THE OIL FILTER WHEN PERFORMING AN OIL CHANGE. LEAK STARTS IMMEDIATELY THIS CAR HAS 22,300 MILES ON IT AND IS A 2017.

SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE CONSTANTLY POPS UP.

WATER WAS FOUND PUDDLING THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR BOARD AND DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER FLOORBOARD. THERE WAS FOUND THAT THE FACTORY DID NOT SEAL A SEEM BETWEEN THE WHEEL WELL AND THE FIREWALL CAUSING THE LEAK. EVIDENTLY THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLRM ACCORDING TO JEEP FORUMS. THE STANDING WATER IS VERY HARD TO GET OUT AND IS CAUSING FOWL SMELL. ALL OF THIS OCCURS AFTER I HAD TAKEN MY VEHICLE THROUGH ITS FIRST AUTOMATIC CAR WASH.

SERVICE SHIFTER POPS UP WHEN I'M DRIVING 65MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. EXTREMELY UNSAFE!

PERIODICALLY WHILE DRIVING, A "SERVICE SHIFTER" NOTIFICATION WILL TURN ON AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER INDICATING GEARS WILL LIGHT UP. IF THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, THIS NOTIFICATION WILL DISAPPEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME 6+ TIMES RANDOMLY OVER THE PAST YEAR THAT I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWS THAT MANY OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCE THE SAME FALSE NOTIFICATION. THE UNRELIABILITY OF THIS NOTIFICATION IS UNSAFE AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE WITH A FAULTY DRIVELINE IN THE TRANSMISSION. BOB JOHNSON CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (18476 US-11, WATERTOWN, NY 13601) WAS CONTACTED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT HE WOULD BE CHARGED A DIAGNOSTIC FEE. THE CONTACT DECLINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT YET NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED BECAUSE THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 32,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

CAR SPEEDS UP AND JOLTS SINCE I PURCHASED IT. IT ALSO LOOSES STRENGTH AND DOES NOT GO HIGHER THAN 5MPH ON THE ROAD. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE MECHANIC MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THEY DID FIX THE TRANSMISSION SOME TIME AGO AND EVEN AFTER THAT IT CONTINUES TO JOLT WHEN IN PARK. WHEN DRIVING IT ALSO JOLTS FROM LOW SPEED TO HIGH SPEED

I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FROM NEW. WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR 'SERVICE SHIFTER' WAS DISPLAYED ON THE MAIN DRIVER DISPLAY, AND ALL LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER BEZEL LIT UP. AFTER MONTHS WAITING FOR PARTS, THE DEALERSHIP EVENTUALLY REPLACED THE SHIFTER WHICH CURED IT. IT HAPPENED AGAIN AROUND 2 YEARS LATER, AND AGAIN THE BEZEL WAS REPLACED. IT'S NOW HAPPENED A THIRD TIME, IN SEPT OF 2020. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ORDERED THE PARTS AGAIN. I AM STILL WAITING FOR THE PARTS, 5 MONTHS LATER. IT SEEMS THOUSANDS OF JEEP OWNERS HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY THIS SAME PROBLEM, YOU CAN SEARCH ON GOOGLE FOR 'SERVICE SHIFTER' AND SEE MANY STORIES AND COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE, WHICH LARGELY, BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY SEEMS TO AFFECT JEEP CHEROKEES. MANY OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENING AGAIN AND AGAIN. SOME PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TOLD IT'S A PROBLEM WITH FUSES BECOMING LOOSE, OTHERS HAVE BEEN TOLD IT'S A WIRING ISSUE. WHILE JEEP AND THE DEALERSHIP HAVE TOLD ME VERBALLY THE CAR IS STILL SAFE TO DRIVE, IT DOES DISABLE CERTAIN THINGS, AND I DISPUTE THE CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE. FOR EXAMPLE, MANUAL GEAR SHIFTING IS DISABLED WHEN 'SERVICE SHIFTER' IS DISPLAYED. THAT MEANS YOU CANNOT SELECT THE GEAR YOU WANT MANUALLY, THAT IS BENEFICIAL IN SITUATIONS LIKE GOING DOWN A HILL OR WHILE OFF-ROADING. SECONDLY, 'SERVICE SHIFTER' IS DISPLAYED PERMANENTLY ON THE DRIVER'S DISPLAY. IT CANNOT BE CLEARED FROM THE DISPLAY. THAT MEANS THAT CERTAIN FEATURES CANNOT BE ACCESSED AT ALL. THIS INCLUDES: TIRE PRESSURE COOLANT TEMPERATURE TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE OIL TEMPERATURE OIL LIFE (AND ABILITY TO RESET IT AFTER AN OIL CHANGE) BATTERY VOLTAGE FUEL ECONOMY INFO TRIP INFO SCREEN SETUP (CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS)

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT DROVE TO HER RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER ELK GROVE DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (8575 LAGUNA GROVE DR, ELK GROVE, CA 95757, (916) 525-8393) AND MADE THE DEALER AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING THE SHIFTER BEZEL AND THE HARNESS TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000.

I HAVE A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHTS KEEPS COMING ON. WHEN IT COMES ON ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER GLOW RED. SOMETIMES IT COMES ON EVEN IF I'M SITTING THERE IN PARK. THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T FIND WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. I LITERALLY HAD TO BRING IT IN WHILE IT WAS ON BUT THEY STILL COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT. I HAD THE SHIFTER AND BEZEL WIRING REPLACED. HOPEFULLY THIS SOLVES THE ISSUE.

AS I WAS DRIVING ON A RURAL ROAD, THE 'SERVICE SHIFTER' MESSAGE DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER BEZEL ALL GLOWED RED. I STOPPED THE CAR, SHIFT IT OFF, TURNED IT BACK ON AND ALL SEEMED NORMAL AGAIN. WHILE THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE WAS SHOWING, ALL OTHER INFORMATION IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS HIDDEN WHICH FELT UNSAFE. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, I FOUND THAT THIS IS ISSUE IS AFFECTING MANY AS THEY ARE REPORTING THE SAME OCCURRENCE I EXPERIENCED AND I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF JEEP TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. *CC *TR

MY JEEP WILL INTERMITTENTLY COME UP WITH A 'SERVICE SHIFTER' ERROR MESSAGE. MY CAR DOES NOT ACT ABNORMAL OTHERWISE BUT WITH READING A LOT OF THE COMPLAINTS I SAW THAT MOST PEOPLE ARE FILING COMPLAINTS WITH YOU TO HAVE A RECALL ON THE ISSUE. THIS ERROR MESSAGES OCCURS WHILE I'M DRIVING.

JEEP SAYS 'SERVICE SHIFTER' AND SHOWS UP ON THE DASH AND ALL THE LIGHTS TURN RED ON THE SHIFTER ITSELF. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES IN MY JEEP. THE FREQUENCY HAS GOTTEN WORSE. I HAD TO RESTART MY JEEP IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROAD TO GET THE LIGHTS TO GO AWAY, AND WITHIN MINUTES NOW IT IS BACK ON. IT HAS GONE AWAY IN THE PAST BUT FOR AN UNKNOWN TIME (SOMETIMES A DAY SOMETIMES WEEKS.) IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE SHIFTING, DRIVING, AND WHILE PARKED. THE LIGHT IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING ELSE ON THE DASH BUT ALSO CONCERNING SINCE IT IS A KNOWN SHIFTER ISSUE.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT DISPLAYS. THIS CAUSES THE USE OF THE SPORT MODE TRANSMISSION TO FAIL. IT ALSO PREVENTS THE DRIVER FROM VIEWING ALL DISPLAY FEATURES, LOW GAS, OIL/TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE, ETC., AND PREVENTS SHIFTING THE JEEP TO SNOW MODE. WHEN IT COMES ON, ALL OF THE RED LIGHTS NEXT TO MY SHIFTER COME ON (P, R, D, ETC). THE LIGHT COMES ON ALMOST EVERY TIME WHILE I AM DRIVING. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT ALL SPEED, CITY, HIGHWAY, DRIVING STRAIGHT AND TURNING. PLACING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE, IN SNOW MODE, AND USE OF THE MANUAL SPORT MODE. IT HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES. THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS FROM JEEP OWNERS ON VARIOUS FORUMS AND THE AUTOMAKER REFUSES TO ISSUE A RECALL. THERE ARE OTHER MORE EXTREME AND DANGEROUS CAUSES THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED BY OTHER JEEP OWNERS, SUCH AS THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENABLING WHILE DRIVING AND TRANSMISSION LOCKED IN A SPECIFIC GEAR.

THE TRANSMISSION FEELS LIKE IT'S JUMPING AT LOW SPEEDS.

VEHICLE HAD DISPLAYED "SERVICE SHIFTER" NOTICE ON DASH TWICE AND IT SEEMS LIKE THERE IS NO FIX. WORRIED THAT GEAR SHIFT MIGHT MALFUNCTION WHILE IN THE ROAD. ALSO, TRANSMISSION JERKS WHEN TAKING FOOT OFF OF ACCELERATOR. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN TO 3 DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE SAID NOTHING IS WRONG, HOWEVER THE PROBLEM PERSISTS.

A "SERVICE SHIFTER" MESSAGE APPEARS ON THE DASHBOARD RANDOMLY WHEN I'M DRIVING ON THE STREET AND THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS TURN ON ON THE SHIFTER. I TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND TURN IT BACK ON AND IT GOES AWAY BUT IT COMES BACK ON LATER AGAIN.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN I HAD MY "SERVICE MY 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT" CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE SAYING THAT I WILL NEED TO REPLACE PTU (POWER TRANSFER UNIT). I HAVE ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE THE IGNITION ENGINE COIL IN THIS CAR AND I FEEL LIKE THERE ARE MORE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THEN I AM AWARE OF. SOMETIMES MY CAR WILL ALSO TELL ME I HAVE A FLAT TIRE AND THEN A MINUTE LATER THE SENSOR WILL SHOW THAT THE TIRE IS OKAY.

SERVICE SHIFTER, HAD IT REPLACED WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY TWICE. IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN AND HAS SEVERAL TIMES AND NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. WHAT HAS TO HAPPEN BEFORE THEY RECALL THIS PART. IT IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE WITH SO MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS.

ALL LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER BEZEL LIGHT UP & SERVICE SHIFTER INDICATOR LIGHT ON SCREEN APPEARS. THIS HAPPENS PERIODICALLY & SO FAR HAS RESET WHEN VEHICLE SHUT OFF& RESTARTED. DEALER SAYS PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER & I NEED TO PAY $200 DEDUCTIBLE BECAUSE ORIGINAL WARRANTY EXPIRED EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 23,000 MILES. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM ON THESE VEHICLES SINCE 2014. SHOULD BE ON RECALL & FIXED. MANY OWNERS REPORT CONDITION OFTEN REAPPEARS. VEHICLE COULD LOCK UP TRANSMISSION OR BRAKE NOT SET PROPERLY. DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE.

THE CAR STALLS OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING NO MATTER WHAT SPEED AT AND SAYS ' SHIFT TO PARK' AND THEN DIES. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN GOING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. IT ALSO WILL DO THE SAME THING IF THE CAR IS LOW ON OIL BECAUSE THE ENGINE BURNS OIL..THIS IS A DESIGN OF THE CAR BUT DOES NOT NOTIFY THE DRIVER OF THE OIL BEING LOW. IT'S MANUAL SAY THE CAR SHOULD CHANGE OIL EVERY 5000 MILES BUT THE TECHNICIANS FOR THIS BRAND SAY YOU SHOULD DO IT MORE OFTEN. AGAIN NO WARNING JUST DIES. I HAVE REPORTED THIS BOTH TWO THE DEALER WORKING ON MY CAR AND JEEP CORPORATE.

THE SHIFTER SAYS THAT IT NEEDS REPAIRED AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER ARE LIT UP RED. WHEN I LOOK IT UP IT SHOWS AN ACTIVE RECALL BUT DOESN'T SHOW ANYTHING ON THIS WEBSITE.

MY 2017 JEEP CURRENTLY HAS JUST OVER 30,000 MILES ON IT AND I HAVE JUST STARTED RECEIVING A MESSAGE ON MY DASH THAT SAYS "SERVICE SHIFTER". WHEN IT COMES ON, ALL OF THE RED LIGHTS NEXT TO MY SHIFTER COME ON (P, R, D, ETC). THE LIGHT COMES ON ALMOST EVERY TIME WHILE I AM DRIVING. I CONTACTED A FEW GARAGES AND NONE OF THEM HAVE HEARD ABOUT THIS OR KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS.

SHIFTER SERVICE - SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES. THIS CAR AT LESS THAN 18,000 MILES HAS HAD THERMOSTAT REPLACED ... NOW IT IS HAVING SHIFTER ISSUE. LINK TO COMPLAINTS - HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T68742_DS990296

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT COMES ON CONSISTENTLY. I HAVE BEEN BACK TO THE DEALER TWICE WHILE MY JEEP WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEMS. THE LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON, TO THIS DAY

I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR TWO MONTHS AND DROVE LESS THAN 2000 MILES AND MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE APPARENTLY BURNED OFF MOST OF THE OIL WITHIN THAT TIME AND NO LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE OIL WAS LOW. I WOULD START DRIVING MY CAR AND IT WOULD JUST SHUT OFF. APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. THERE IS NO REASON WHY A OIL LIGHT SHOULDN'T WARN YOU, THE ONLY WARNING YOU GET IS YOUR CAR SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS IS NOT SAFE! HERE ARE MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. HTTPS://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/JEEP/CHEROKEE/ENGINE-BURNING-OIL-PROBLEMS.PHP#:~:TEXT=ENGINE%20BURNING%20OIL%20PROBLEM%20OF%20THE%202017%20JEEP,INDICATION%20OF%20ANY%20LOW%20OIL%20UNTIL%20THE%20STALL

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. I JUST HAD THE PTU CHANGED OUT! THIS VEHICLE IS BEING TO FEEL UNSAFE AND NOT ALLOWING ME TO DO WHAT I BOUGHT IT FOR!

I BOUGHT A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED 10/31/2020. AT LEAST 7 TIMES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS MY CAR HAS STARTED AND I DRIVE ABOUT 1000 FEET AND MY CAR DIES. FLASHES RETURN TO PARK AND IT SHUTS OFF. MY CAR WILL START BACK AFTER ROLLING OVER A FEW TIMES. THIS IS NOT SAFE BECAUSE IF I PULL OUT IN FRONT OF SOMEONE AND MY CAR DIES I'M GOING TO HAVE A WREAK. I READ MULTIPLE OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS AT HTTPS://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/JEEP/CHEROKEE/ENGINE-SHUT-OFF-WITHOUT-WARNING-PROBLEMS.PHP I REALLY HOPE THIS PROBLEM CAN GET SOLVED AND BECOME RECALLED.

AFTER SERVICE SHIFTER RECALL WAS FIXED IT STILL CONTINUES TO COME ON, MY SHOCKS ARE LEAKING, POOFS OF SMOKE COME OUT OF MY VENTS, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES OFF AND ON, MY HEATER AND AIR ONLY WORKS SOMETIMES, AND I HAVE REPLACED MY BATTERY 4 TIMES. I ONLYII

WHILE SITTING STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT IN DRIVE THE VEHICLE SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL AND WOULDN'T SHIFT BACK TO DRIVE. HAD TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF TO GET IT TO GO BACK TO DRIVE.

IT'S 31 DEGREES HERE IN ALASKA AND I AUTO STARTED MY VEHICLE TO WARM UP ABOUT 10 MINUTES. WHEN I SHIFTED GEAR INTO REVERSE I HEARD A BEEP COME FROM THE WARNING LIGHTS AND IT SAID, 'SERVICE SHIFTER.' THEN I PUT IT BACK INTO PARK AND REALIZE ALL THE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED RED ON THE LETTERS P, R, N, D, -+, I TOOK PHOTOS OF THE WARNING LIGHTS. I JUST GOT MY CAR SERVICED AT CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE ANCHORAGE 5TH AVE. ALASKA COUPLE DAYS BEFORE THIS HAPPENED.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT ENGAGES AND WILL NOT TURN OFF. ALL LIGHTS ON SHIFTER ILLUMINATE A D VEHICLE REFUSES TO GIVE FULL POWER WHEN IN MOTION

TL* THE CONTACT'S FRIEND OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS FRIEND WAS DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND WAS FIRM. THE SERVICE ELECTRONIC BRAKING SYSTEM MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT, WHO WORKS AS AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE WITH A DEFECTIVE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE BRAKE BOOSTER HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE MONTHS LATER. THE CONTACT CALLED VICTORVILLE MOTORS (14617 CIVIC DR, VICTORVILLE, CA 92394, (760) 843-8317) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,622.

VEHICLE STALLS WITHOUT WARNING

AT 54,00 MILES SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON CONTROL PANELS AND RED LIGHT ON ALL SHIFTING GEARS WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. TURNED CAR OFF THEN TURN CAR BACK ON --SERVICE SHIFTER WAS GONE OFF PANEL 12/17/20202 HAPPEN AGAIN 12/21 SAME THING HAPPEN , TURN CAR OFF AND TURN CAR BACK ON

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON. SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO THIS VEHICLE . WE HAVE PAID TO HAVE FIXED TWICE. SAME ALERT BOTH TIMES . STILL WAITING ON PART . THERE ARE 78 AHEAD OF ME. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM FOR JEEP PRODUCTS. READING A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE . THERE SHOULD BE THEIR PROBLEM TO FIX

USING EXCESSIVE OIL WITH NO LIGHTS COMING ON. CAUSED MY CAR TO STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF A HWY TODAY WITH NO WARNINGS. GET IT BACK HOME AND IT IS 2 QUARTS LOW ON OIL AGAIN. I PUT OIL IN IT 1 1/2 WEEKS AGO.

THE WORDS "SERVICE SHIFTER" COMES ON MY DASH. IT WILL NOT LET ME CLEAR IT. ALSO ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER TURNED ON AND IS RED.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON HAVING ALL THE LIGHTS ON SHIFTER GO RED LOCKING YOUR CAR. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR 1 WEEK ONLY THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS THE DEALER SAYS IT CAN THROW YOUR CAR INTO PARK WHILE DRIVING!!! THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. I HAVE 16 YEAR OLD THAT DRIVES THIS CAR. HOW AWFUL OF HE GOT INTO A WRECK DUE TO THIS. DEALER SAYS CAN NOT FIX IF LIGHT IS OFF WHICH IT IS BY THE TIME YOU BRING IT IN!! THE SHIFTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED UNDER A RECALL

I TURNED ON MY VEHICLE AND ON THE SCREEN APPEARED "SERVICE SHIFTER." ALL LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER WERE LIT (INSTEAD OF JUST THE GEAR THAT THE CAR IS IN BEING LIT). THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO OPERATE WITHOUT ANY ISSUES BUT I ONLY DROVE IT A SHORT DISTANCE. WHEN I PARKED, I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND TURNED IT BACK ON. THE PROBLEM DID NOT HAPPEN THIS TIME.

SEVERAL MONTHS AGO THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT BEGAN COMING ON RANDOMLY WHEN STARTING THE CAR AND STAYED ON UNTIL THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF. THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT, PARK ASSIST UNAVAILABLE AND SERVICE EMERGENCY BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALERSHIP INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY BUT SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT STILL COMES ON RANDOMLY WHEN STARTING THE CAR AND STAYS ON UNTIL THE CAR IS TURNED OFF. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO THEN REPLACED THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR. SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON RANDOMLY WHEN TURNING ON THE CAR AND STAYS ON UNTIL THE CAR IS TURNED OFF.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT WILL COME ON & DISAPPEAR. DEALERSHIPS DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS.

SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE POPS UP CONSTANTLY AND HAS THE LAST TWO YEARS. IT'S RANDOM AND SOMETIMES IT'S WHILE I'M DRIVING. WHICH JUST HAPPENED ON MY WAY TO A DOCTORS APPOINTMENT. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT. IF IT COMES ON RIGHT WHEN I START THE ENGINE I CANNOT PUT MY CAR INTO ANY GEAR. I HAVE TO TURN MY CAR ON AND OFF REPEATEDLY FOR IT TO CLEAR. AFTER WHICH THE FIRST TEN MINUTES OF DRIVING IS ROUGH AND THE CAR SHIFTS BADLY. SOMETIMES ACCELERATION IS POOR AFTER. ALL LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER TURN RED. VERY DANGEROUS

I HAVE HAD A THE VEHICLE LESS THAN 60 DAYS, AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE, I DROVE HOME TURNED IT OFF AND THEN WHEN I RESTATED THE VEHICLE IT IS NO LONGER ON. DEALER IS UNAWARE OF ANY ISSUES AND HAS NEVER HEAD OF THIS, SO NOW I HAVE TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND ALL THE PARTS AND I DO HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT THIS IS NOT COVERED BY POWERTRAIN. THERE ARE OVER 600 COMPLAINTS FOR THIS ISSUE, AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT FIRST CAME ON AFTER I BOUGHT MY 2017 JEEP. THE WARRANTY TOOK CARE OF THE FIRST ISSUE THEN IT CAME ON AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES AFTER THAT. IT WENT AWAY AFTER I WOULD RESTART THE CAR. I ADDRESS THIS TO THE DEALERSHIP AND NO RECALLS. IT HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES BUT IT WOULD ALWAYS GO AWAY. TODAY MY JEEP AS I WAS PULLING INTO A STREET, THE JEEP STARTED STALLING AND THE DASHLIGHT SAID TO "STEP ON BRAKE TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE", THEN THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON. IT STALLED OUT AND I COULD NOT START IT. AFTER I SAT THERE A WHILE, I TRIED IT AGAIN AND IT STARTED. (35 DEGREES).

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING AND ALL SHIFTER LIGHTS COME ON (PARK, REVERSE, DRIVE, ETC. ALL LIT UP AT ONCE) REPLACEMENT NEEDED IS SHIFTER BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS. DEALER SAYS ITS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT IS NOT COVERED BY JEEP WARRANTY, BUT IS VERY COMMON. VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON IT.

WHILE DRIVING AND TURNING RIGHT THE VEHICLE SHIFTED OUT OF GEAR TO NEUTRAL AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT ACTIVATED. ALSO, THE SERVICE AIR BAG, SERVICE SHIFTER AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. FURTHERMORE, ALL THE SHIFTER LIGHTS CAME ON. WHILE SITTING IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON TO RESET IT, THEN I WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR BACK TO MY HOUSE 5 MILES AWAY. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE A SCHEDULED DIAGNOSIS WITH MY DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE CENTER IN SEVEN DAYS. I MADE THE APPOINTMENT WHEN THE FIRST TIME THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON. THEY DID NOT ADVISE ME NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. BUT, AFTER THE LAST INCIDENT THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE.

UPON STARTING JEEP RECEIVED MESSAGE "SERVICE SHIFTER" AND ALL THE GEAR INDICATOR LIGHTS ARE LIT AND MESSAGE CENTER IS INOPERATIVE EXCEPT FOR THAT MESSAGE. SHUTTING CAR OFF AND RESTARTING RESETS, ONLY TO COME BACK AFTER A FEW STARTS. JEEP DEALERSHIP CHARGES $145 TO TELL YOU WHAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BUT IS NOT SURE IF THAT WILL FIX PROBLEM. MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE WITH 2016-2018 JEEP CHEROKEE'S BUT CAR IS PAST 36 MONTH WARRANTY PERIOD EVEN THOUGH IT ONLY HAS 14,500 MILES ON IT, JEEP WILL NOT REPAIR AT N/C. WITH THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ FOR SAME ISSUE, WHY ISN'T A RECALL IN ORDER ? APPARENTLY, IF YOU DON'T GET IT FIXED, SOMEWHERE DOWN THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE MAY BECOME INOPERABLE, OR WILL NOT SHIFT TO PARK. THE TEMPORARY FIX APPEARS TO BE , SHUT THE CAR OFF, AND RESTART. NOT A VERY GOOD THING.

WAS ON THE WAY OUT OF TOWN FOR THE WEEKEND DRIVING AT 65MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHTS UP ON MY CONSOLE AND ALL LIGHTS (GEARS) ON THE ACTUAL SHIFTER CONSOLE LIGHT UP AS WELL. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PLACED IN PARK, STILL ALL LIGHTS REMAINED ON LEAVING ME PUZZLED. I PROCEEDED ON CAUTIOUSLY AWARE OFF WHAT WAS OCCURRING, AFTER REACHING MY DESTINATION TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF.. FINDING THAT RESTARTING THE VEHICLE EVERYTHING WAS BACK TO NORMAL. UNFORTUNATELY IT KEEPS REPEATING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER FOR AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES NOW. BESIDES THE ONGOING PROBLEM IT ALSO IS UNSAFE AS IT ACTUALLY STARTLES YOU WHEN IN TRAFFIC WHEN IT DINGS AND EVERYTHING LIGHTS UP ! APPARENTLY ITS A KNOW PROBLEM WITH JEEP WITH MULTIPLE OTHERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL FOR A PERMANENT FIX TO THIS UN SAFE ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS SEVERELY INJURED OR A LIFE IS LOST.....

I WAS MAKING A SHARP LEFT TURN INTO A PARKING LOT, SORT OF FAST- BETWEEN 10-15 MPH. AFTER I MADE THE SHARP LEFT TURN AND STARTED TO TURN RIGHT TO GO STRAIGHT AND PARK, THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING CAME ON. I WAS ABLE TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK JUST FINE. I INSTANTLY TURNED MY CAR OFF WAITED A FEW SECONDS AND STARTED MY CAR AGAIN AND THE WARNING WAS GONE. HASN'T COME BACK ON SINCE. THIS HAPPENED LAST NIGHT.

WHILE DRIVING A LIGHT COMES ON AND SAYS TO SERVICE SHIFTER. EVERY TIME IT HAS COME ON, I PULL OVER AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN IT WILL GO OFF. I'M WORRIED BECAUSE I'VE HEARD OTHERS AND THEIR BRAKES LOCKING UP AND GETTING INTO A WRECK...ON THE DASH READS PARK. WE HAVE ALSO HAD A LIGHT COME ON THE SPEEDOMETER THAT BLINKS AND THEN MAKES A LOUD BEEP BEEP BEEP. IT DOES GO OFF EVENTUALLY. THE WORST YET IS WHEN I WENT TO START THE CAR, THE BRAKE LOCKS UP AND IT WON'T START OR TURN OVER. WE HAD TO TOW IT TO A MECHANIC TO GET IT LOOKED AT. FINALLY AFTER TRYING MANY THINGS, HE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND IT BEGAN TO WORK. EVERY NOW AND THEN, IT DOES THE SAME THING, BUT IF I BREATHE JUST RIGHT IT STARTS.

THE VEHICLE IS BURNING OIL AND EVEN THOUGH THE OIL LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON THE VEHICLE WILL STALL AND DIE WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE IT'S BURNING OIL. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING AS THERE IS NO INDICATION OF ANY LOW OIL UNTIL THE STALL. KEEP NEEDS TO FIX THIS OR WILL BE SUED WHEN AN ACCIDENT OCCURS BECAUSE OF AN ENGINE STALL WITHOUT ANY INDICATORS

MY 2017 JEEP HAD JUST TURNED OVER 30,000 MILES WHEN A SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARED ON THE DASH. ALL THE LIGHTS LIT UP ON THE CONSOLE WHERE THE SHIFTER SITS. THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES IN ONE WEEK. I PUT IT IN PARK, SHUT IT OFF, RESTARTED IT AND THE MESSAGE WENT AWAY. IT DID IT WHEN I FIRST STARTED IT. THEN IT APPEARED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE 3 YEAR 36,000 MILE WARRANTY ENDED IN AUGUST OF THIS YEAR SO OF COURSE I WAS REQUIRED TO PAY FOR THE SHIFTER BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS TO FIX THE ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT IF I LET IT GO AND DIDN'T FIX IT, EVENTUALLY, IT WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR. UPON GOOGLING THIS PROBLEM I SEE THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR JEEPS. I AM UPSET AND WONDERING WHY THIS IS NOT A FACTORY RECALL ISSUE. I DO NOT BELIEVE A 3 YEAR OLD VEHICLE WITH 30,000 ACTUAL MILES ON IT SHOULD BE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I READ MANY STORIES SIMILAR TO MINE. IT SEEMS LIKE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED! JACKIE PRASNICKI

PURCHASED 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE TRAIL HAWK NEW 10/2016. IF THE JEEP IS LEFT TO SIT 2 DAYS BATTERY WILL DRAIN AND NOT RESTART JEEP. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY 3 TIMES. MOST RECENTLY 4-21-20. THIS NEW BATTERY KEEPS DRAINING AND 2ND TIME I HAVE HAD TO CALL TO HAVE IT RECHARGED. NOW BATTERY IS SHOWING BAD AND THEN OK. ALTERNATOR HAS DONE THE SAME BUT NOW SHOWING BAD. I THINK THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE THAT KEEPS DRAINING BATTERIES. I ONLY HAVE 27,000 MILES ON JEEP.

THE HVAC MODULE STOPPED WORKING OUT OF NOWHERE. MY MILEAGE KEEPS FLASHING AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THERE WAS NO WARNING SIGN OF IT GETTING BAD IT JUST WOULDN'T COME ON AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAG IT AND FOUND OUT WHAT IT WAS.

MY SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON RANDOM AT ANY TIME. TURN OFF MY JEEP AND RESTART IT AND IT GOES AWAY. NOW MY PUSH START BUTTON WILL TURN ON MY DASH BUT WHEN I GO TO START THE JEEP IT WILL JUST CLICK. IM BEGINNING TO WONDER IF ITS BECAUSE OF THE SHIFTER ERROR. IT HAS TO BE IN PARK AND IF ALL THE LIGHTS ARE ON THEN MAYBE IT WILL KEEP MY JEEP FROM STARTING CORRECTLY.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHTS CAME ON WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE FROM PARK POSITION

AT SLOW SPEED WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED ABRUPTLY AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO JERK. IN ADDITION THERE IS A LOUD CRUNCH. BANG OR CLUNK NOISE THAT MADE ME FEEL LIKE ANOTHER CAR HAD REAR ENDED ME. THE DEALER UPDATED THE COMPUTER BUT IT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE.

WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT TURNED ON AS WELL AS ALL THE LIGHTS DENOTING P-R-N-D ON THE SHIFTER BEZEL ITSELF. I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND SHIFTED FROM D TO P AND BACK TO D. VEHICLE OPERATION DID NOT FALTER AND WAS ABLE TO ARRIVE HOME WITH NO NOTED MECHANICAL ISSUE.

GAS PEDAL WILL STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING NOT ALLOWING ME TO ACCELERATE THE JEEP. I HAVE TO PULL OVER, POWER OFF THE JEEP, AND WAIT ABOUT 5 MINUTES. AFTER WAITING, I HAVE TO HOLD THE KEY IN THE START POSITION UNTIL THE JEEP TURNS ON WHICH RANGES ANYWHERE FROM 30-190 SECONDS TO DO. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE BUT MY CAR IS NOT COVERED. I BELIEVE THAT THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED AS IT DOES NOT FULLY COVER THE VEHICLES AFFECTED. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED 6 TIMES OVER THE LAST 2 MONTHS.

LIGHT ON DASH: SERVICE SHIFTER. ALL LIGHTS ON SHIFTER ON SUCH AS:P, R, N, D, OD. LIGHTS ON IN MOTION AND STOPPED.

THE CAR STARTED OFF BY PROBLEMS WITH THE CHIP TO COMPUTE THAT IT NEEDED TO OPEN THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL VALVE. SO WITH THAT CAME THE INABILITY FOR ME TO START THE CAR BY BEING OUTSIDE OF IT AND ALSO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON. THEN OUR GEARS WOULD LIGHT UP AS IF THE CAR WAS IN EVER POSITION POSSIBLE. WE WOULD PARK CUT THE CAR OFF AND RESUME TO DRIVE. THIS PROBLEM PERSISTED FOR A WEEK OR SO WENT AWAY AND EVENTUALLY CAME BACK. NOW THE ENGINE FEELS AS IF IT'S GIVING OUT IT DOESN'T ACCELERATE WELL, I KNOW IT'S A V4 BUT IT SHOULD HAVE MAINTAINED THE GET UP THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 50,000 MILES ON IT AND IS WELL MAINTAINED WITH FREQUENT OIL CHANGES WITH THE BEST OIL. CAR IS NEVER DRIVEN ON E OR ANYTHING I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE CAR IS FAILING THIS EARLY. I HEARD JEEP'S HAVE BEEN VERY DEPENDABLE CARS.

THE NOTICE FOR SERVICE SHIFTER COME'S ON, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SELECTOR LIGHT UP. YOU CAN'T TELL WHICH GEAR THE CAR IS IN. THIS NOTICE SHOWS IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, WHERE THE SPEED ODOMETER IS. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AND OFF FOR 6 TO 8 MONTHS, THE DEALERSHIP FOUND NOTHING. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING AND JUST STARTING THE VEHICLE.

I HADNT HAD MY CAR SIX MONTHS AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFTER CAME ON. TOOK HAD FIXED AT DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME IT JUST NEEDED TO BE RESET. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN A LITTLE WHILE LATER TOOK IT BACK AND THEY REPLACED THE SHIFTER. NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN. I HAV READ SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL PEOPLE CANT KEEP FIXING THIS OVER AND OVER AND OVER.

"SERVICE SHIFTER" KEEPS COMING ON AND READING OTHER REVIEWS ONLINE TELLS ME THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE AND THAT THE VEHICLE WILL GO INTO PARK RANDOMLY NO MATTER WHAT SPEED YOU'RE DRIVING AT. ONLY 64K MILES!!!

MY CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING WHILE DRIVING AND ACTED LIKE I SHIFTED IT TO NEUTRAL. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY AND WAS TOLD I NEED A TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE UPDATE. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT THING BUT MY VEHICLE WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. ALSO, MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULDN'T COVER IT SO I HAD TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET ALONG WITH THE DIAGNOSTIC SERVICE. NO CODES SHOWED UP EVEN THOUGH A LIGHT CAME ON WHEN IT HAPPENED TO ME TWICE THAT SAID VEHICLE MUST BE STOPPED TO SHIFT. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND IT SHOULD BE COVERED.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING CAME UP WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. THE VEHICLE HAS ROUGHLY 45000. NOTHING HAPPENED THIS TIME BUT I HAVE SEEN THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE AND CAN LEAD TO THE VEHICLE SHUTTING OFF IN MOTION.

I'VE HAD THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COME AND OFF SINCE I BOUGHT IT USED 15 MONTHS AGO. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. TWO DAYS AGO, I WAS DRIVING 40 MPH AND THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING AND A LIGHT CAME ON THAT SAID CAR MUST BE STOPPED TO SHIFT. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, I PUT IT IN PARK AND BACK TO DRIVE BUT THE ENGINE JUST REVVED SO I TURNED IT OFF AND BACK ON BEFORE I COULD GET IT TO GO. THE NIGHT BEFORE I DROVE ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY WON'T EVEN LOOK AT IT FOR A WEEK. I'M SCARED TO DEATH DRIVING IT. THEY WON'T GIVE ME A LOANER ALTHOUGH I BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I STARTED RESEARCHING AND SAW MANY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT AND TO COME HERE TO FILE A COMPLAINT. I WANT JEEP TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. I COULDN'T TRADE THIS SOON WITHOUT LOSING MONEY. I BOUGHT A NEW CAR TO HAVE A SAFE VEHICLE AND NOW I'M AFRAID OF HAVING AN ACCIDENT UNLESS THIS CAN BE FIXED.

EVERY TIME I START MY CAR AFTER A FEW MILES IT SAYS SERVICE SHIFTER BUT EVERYTHING IS IN SPEC. ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER LIGHT UP. BUT THERE IS NO ISSUE SHIFTING

WHILE IN MOTION, LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER COME ON A SAY SERVICE SHIFTER. PREVIOUSLY, WHEN THIS HAPPENED, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF.

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHTS COME ON WHEN STARTING AND DRIVING

AFTER STARTING CAR IN MORNING, THE SHIFTER WAS PUT INTO DRIVE. WHILE SHIFTER WAS IN DRIVE THE LIGHT BESIDE SHIFTER WAS BLINKING. THEN A MESSAGE POPPED UP ON THE DASH SAYING TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL OR PARK. VEHICLE WAS PUT IN PARK, THEN BACK IN DRIVE AND A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODE WAS U0001 FOR A CAN C BUS. WHEN PUSHING ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL THE CAR WAS LAGGING AND DID NOT SEEM TO RESPOND THE SAME AS IT USUALLY WOULD. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND THE ROOT CAUSE. THEY CLEARED THE CODE AND LET ME LEAVE.

ON OCTOBER 20, 2020, I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED IN RESPONSE TO A 'SERVICE SHIFTER' WARNING INDICATOR. THE DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT THE 'SHIFTER BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS' WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AND COMPLETED THE REPAIR EARLIER TODAY AT A COST OF $325.88. DESPITE HAVING PURCHASED A SUPPLEMENTAL SERVICE PROTECTION PLAN THROUGH ASC, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE WARRANTY CLAIM HAD BEEN DENIED AS THE 'AGREEMENT DOES NOT HAVE COVERAGE ON WIRING OR WIRING HARNESSES' AND THAT 'THE BEZEL IS CONSIDERED A BODY PART BY THE MANUFACTURER WHICH IS NOT COVERABLE.' MOST DISTURBING, BASED UPON A REVIEW OF COMPLAINTS GENERATED FOLLOWING A GOOGLE SEARCH, THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM THAT HAS AFFECTED A NUMBER OF JEEPS SINCE AT LEAST 2014. I'M AT A LOSS AS TO WHY THIS IS BEING TREATED LIKE A COSMETIC REPAIR WHEN THIS COMPONENT IS CRITICAL TO THE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE AND HAS BEEN A RECURRENT ISSUE FOR OVER FIVE YEARS. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HOW THIS ISSUE IS BEING ADDRESSED BY JEEP'BOTH IN TERMS OF COVERING THESE REPAIRS AND CORRECTING THE UNDERLYING ISSUES THAT ARE CAUSING THE PROBLEM.

BACKING UP MY JEEP AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARED IN THE DASH AND RED LIGHTS CAME ON THE BY THE SHIFTER. I PUT IT BACK IN PARK AND RESTARTED MY JEEP. LIGHTS AND ERROR MESSAGE WENT AWAY.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON WITH ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE PANEL STAYING LIGHT. THIS HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN THE SPACE OF TWO DAYS, BUT SHUT OFF WHEN THE CAR TURNED OFF. YESTERDAY ALL THE LIGHTS STAYED ON AND THE SCREEN WOULD ONLY SHOW SERVICE SHIFTER. JUST WENT OVER 17K MILES ON MY 2017 CHEROKEE. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THE MECHANIC WAS A BIT NONCHALANT. " DON'T WORRY. WE SEE A LOT OF THIS. IT COULD BE A WIRE OR A FUSE OR A PIN OR I MIGHT HAVE TO REPLACE THE PLASTIC AND THE GEAR SHIFTER." LEFT IT AT THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX, PROBABLY TAKE A WEEK OR TWO TO FIX ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC. I WAS LOOKING AT THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS PAGE AND IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE NUMEROUS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. WONDERING WHY IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING SERVICE SHIFTER COMES UP ON DASHBOARD AND ALL GEAR LIGHTS ARE LIT UP. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE ABOUT 6MONTHS INTO OWNING CAR. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S NOT A PROBLEM BUT NOW MY CAR WONT START.

JAN. 2020 THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. NOW 4 TIMES SEPT. 2020 SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT HAS COME ON. JULY 2020 AIR CONDITION HAD TO BR REPLACED.

2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE SERVICE SHIFTER COMES CODE COMES ON DRIVER DASH PANEL DISPLAY. BROUGHT TO DEALER WITHIN 1ST TWO WEEKS OF PURCHASE OF OF A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED VEHICLE WITH UNDER 20,000 MILES. DEALERSHIP INITIALLY WASN'T ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND THEREFORE THE ISSUE WAS NOT ADDRESSED. WITHIN A FEW DAYS, ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN. BROUGHT BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND THE ERROR CODE. HOWEVER, AFTER A FEW MORE WEEKS, THE ISSUE OCCURED AGAIN AND THEN THEY WERE ABLE TO FINALLY SAY IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND WOULD BE FIXED AND THAT IT WAS A SHIFTER ISSUE. NOW, MONTHS LATER, WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR JUST STOPPED WITH A SHIFTER ERROR ON THE DASH. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND STOP THE VEHICLE AND RE-START THE VEHICLE AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS AND THE CODE IS NO LONGER THERE. WE IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALER AND GARAGED THE CAR FOR ALMOST ONE WEEK UNTIL THE APPOINTMENT. " THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I AM NOW TOLD IT IS STILL A SHIFTER ISSUE AND THAT IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I AM NOT SURE HOW THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER A POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. THE CAR LOST POWER WHILE WERE DRIVING. LUCKILY, WE WERE ONLY IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE SHIFTER IS FAULTY AND EVEN IF PAYING OUT OF POCKET WILL NOT RECTIFY THE ISSUE. THERE ARE LOTS OF SIMILAR REPORTS FILE HERE ON THE NHTSA SITE FOR THE 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. I WOULD LIKE THIS DOCUMENTED HERE IN THE EVENT THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL OR FUTURE INCIDENT WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP WAS CENTRAL IN NORWOOD, MA

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT APPEARS AND ALL LIGHTS GO RED ON GEAR SHIFTER.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL THE SHIFTER LIGHTS LIGHT UP AND TURN RED

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING CAME ON IN INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ALL RED LIGHTS ON GEAR PANEL WERE LIT UP AS I WAS SHIFTED FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE BACKING FROM MY DRIVEWAY.

RANDOM AND INCONSISTENT SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE. SOMETIMES DISAPPEARS FOR MONTHS(THOUSANDS OF MILES). HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN TOTAL. VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES. PURCHASED BRAND NEW. ALWAYS WHILE DRIVING. NEVER WHILE IN PARK. SHIFTER INDICATOR LIGHTS UP READ AND ERROR DISPLAYED ON DASHBOARD.

ON 10/7/2020 THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON AND ALL LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER TURN RED AS I WAS GETTING ONTO INTERSTATE 88 IN ILLINOIS. ON 10 /8/2020 IT CAME ON AGAIN WHILE DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET. HAVE READ ABOUT THIS HAPPENING TO OTHERS AND CAUSING WRECKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE REMAINED ILLUMINATED. AFTER TURNING OFF AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, THE MESSAGE DISAPPEARED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER PARKWAY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 311 COMMERCIAL PKWY, DOVER, OH 44622, AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CABLE WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,000.

WHEN STARTING MY CAR THE 'SERVICE SHIFTER' WARNING IS DISPLAYED AND ALL RED LIGHTS COME ON FOR PNRD. THIS WILL SOMETIMES GO AWAY AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND TURNED BACK ON AGAIN. IT MAY ALSO APPEAR WHILE ALREADY DRIVING ON CITY STREET OR FREEWAY.

VEHICLE WON'T START NO CLICK OR CRANK ALL LIGHTS ARE ON AND DASH READS ENGINE TOO HOT , VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN RUNNING FOR ABOUT 3 HOURS TODAY.

RANDOMLY, FROM TIME TO TIME WHILE DRIVING, MY SHIFTER LIGHTS ALL TURN RED AND MY MESSAGE CENTER READS SERVICE SHIFTER. I PARK MY JEEP, TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON, AND THE MESSAGE GOES AWAY. IT BEGAN DOING THIS WITH ONLY 29,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE.

SERVICE SHIFTER AT 40000 MILES AND NOW AT 54000 MILES JEEP IS SPUTTERING WHEN ACCELERATING AND JEEP WILL NOT START. BATTER AND ALTERNATOR ARE GOOD.

"SERVICE SHIFTER" WARNING LIGHT STARTED COMING ON ON THE DRIVER DISPLAY THIS SUMMER, ACCOMPANIED WITH A WARNING CHIME. AT FIRST INTERMITTENTLY, NOW IT IS ON PRETTY MUCH FULL TIME AFTER MOVING INTO GEAR. I AM UNABLE TO USE 4WD, SEE ELECTRONIC SPEEDOMETER, GAS CONSUMPTION GAUGES OR OTHER INFORMATION ON VEHICLE DUE TO THE ERROR MESSAGE. TOOK TO WYLER EASTGATE JEEP ON 7/16, THEY INFORMED ME THE BEZEL ON THE SHIFTER NEEDED REPLACEMENT, AND THE PART WOULD BE IN THE FOLLOWING WEEK. I HAD THEM KEEP THE CAR FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEK. THE FOLLOWING WEEK THEY NOTIFIED ME IT WAS POSSIBLE THE PART WOULDN'T BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE END OF THE JULY, BUT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY SO IT WOULDN'T COST ME ANYTHING. I HAVE SINCE FOLLOWED UP IN AUGUST AND AGAIN LAST WEEK AS THE DEALER NEVER CALLED BACK ON THE STATUS. THE LATEST CALL WAS ON 9/29 (ALMOST 3 MONTHS SINCE FIRST APPOINTMENT), AND THE PARTS DEPARTMENT CONTACT TOLD ME THAT OF THE TWO PARTS NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR, ONE WAS PLACED ON "INCREASED BACKORDER STATUS" FROM JEEP, MEANING THAT THE DEALERSHIPS WERE "BLOCKED" FROM ORDERING IT OR IT EVEN BEING SENT OUT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY ARE NOW UNAWARE OF WHEN THE PART MIGHT BECOME AVAILABLE AGAIN. FROM THIS EXPERIENCE AND THE COMMENTS, IT SOUNDS AS THOUGH THE PART IS FAULTY, HENCE IT WON'T BE USED ON A REPAIR. SOUNDS LIKE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUED IF THE PART IS FAULTY AND THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS IS SO WIDESPREAD, AND JEEP HASN'T ADDRESSED IT TO CONSUMERS OR DEALERS. MY 2017 CHEROKEE HAS 28,000 MILES.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL GEARS LIGHT UP. CAR MAKES LOUD CLUNK NOISE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS AND HAS A HARD TIME SWITCHING GEARS. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT ELECTRONIC SHIFTER BEZEL AND PIGTAIL NEED TO BE REPLACED. KNOWN PROBLEM OF THE JEEP CHEROKEE.

WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP THE SCREEN LIGHTS UP AND FLASHES SERVICE SHIFTER, IT THEN LIGHTS UP THE WHOLE PANEL PRND IN RED AND MAKES IT HARD TO STEER ONE I STOP AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF IT GOES AWAY BUT WILL POP UP RANDOMLY

OUR BRAND NEW VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR MAINTENANCE SEVERAL TIMES, DUE TO SERVICE SHIFTER AND SERVICE 4X4. THIS IS ALL DUE TO A FAULTY SHIFTER BEZEL AND FAULTY WIRING TO THE SHIFTER BEZEL. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND WELL KNOWN IF YOU DO GOOGLE SEARCHES ON THIS VEHICLE. CAN THIS BE LOOKED INTO? ITS NOT FAIR FOR THE CUSTOMER AND DEFINITELY AN ISSUE IF THE DEALER KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THE ISSUE IS BEFORE RECEIVING THE CAR. MAKE THIS A RECALL ALREADY. WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE? BECAUSE IT PREVENTS THE VEHICLE FROM BEING THROWN INTO 4X4 AND ALSO CAUSES SOME VEHICLES TO LOOSE CONTROL FROM WHAT I AM READING. IN MY CASE, MY VEHICLE CAN NOT GO INTO 4X4.

'SERVICE SHIFTER' NOTIFICATION AFTER STARTING CAR, STAYED ON DURING ENTIRE DRIVE UNTIL CAR WAS POWERED OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN WHEN THE NOTIFICATION DISAPPEARED. WHILE NOTIFICATION WAS ON DASHBOARD, ALL RED LIGHTS (INDICATING PARK, NEUTRAL, REVERSE, DRIVE) WERE LIT UP RED ON SHIFTER. NOTIFICATION APPEARED INITIALLY WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK AND DID NOT DISAPPEAR THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE DRIVE (0-70MPH) UNTIL VEHICLE WAS POWERED OFF.

MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE HAS 32,000 MILES ON IT AND SUDDENLY MY "SERVICE SHIFTER" MESSAGE CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL JEEPS THAT HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. IT IS GOING TO COST ME OVER $300 TO REPAIR THIS ERROR MESSAGE. I FEEL THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE AND WANTED TO MAKE SURE MY COMPLAINT IS RECORDED. THIS REPAIR THAT NO ONE SEEMS TO REALLY KNOW MUCH ABOUT IS A VERY SERIOUS HIT TO MY FAMILY'S BUDGET.

TRANSMISSION LOST POWER AND LOSS OF PROPULSION WILL NOT ENGAGE IN PARK., HAD NO WARNING, STRANDED 477 MILES FROM HOME. HAVING SOMEONE FROM COLORADO COMING TO TOW IT BACK TO COLORADO. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE WITH JEEP BUT MINE WAS NOT ENCLUDED. STOPPED FOR GAS WENT TO TAKE OFF TO GET ON INTERSTATE AND QUIT. AND HERE WE SIT. IT HAD A RECALL IN SEPTEMBER 2017 FOR A SHIFT CONTROL MODULE PLUS TRANSMISSION UPDATE WHICH WE HAD DONE, WASN'T NO ISSUE TILL TODAY. SEEMS IT'S A PROBLEM IN JEEPS. THANK YOU.

SERVICE SHIFTIER GOING OFF WHILE ON EXPRESSWAY!

THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE HAS BEEN COMING ON AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER COME ON AS WELL. THE PAST 10 DAYS THE CAR HAS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN (NO POWER) WHILE DRIVING. THEN WHEN I TRY TO RESTART IT HAS TAKEN A BIT BEFORE IT WILL START. I HAVE HAD TO TURN HAZARD LIGHTS ON IN MIDDLE OF ROAD WHERE I AM STOPPED. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE PAST 10 DAYS. DRY WEATHER, GOING APPROXIMATELY 30 TO 40 MPH. NO RECALL BUT I SEE MANY OF THESE SAME ISSUES ONLINE IN BLOGS.

THE SHIFTER DOES NOT SHIFT THE GEARS CORRECTLY NOT COMMUNICATING TO THE ENGINE ALL LIGHTS ARE RED ON SHIFTER GEAR MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER HOSE WAS NEVER ADDED TO PASSENGERS SIDE MAKING VISIBILITY HARD IN SLUSH OR WINTER WEATHER WITH ONLY THE DRIVER SIDE HOSE HOOKED UP IT DOESN'T CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD PROPERLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO EASTGATE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (500 SHADELAND AVE, INDIANAPOLIS, IN 46219; (317) 352-9361) WHO WERE UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE DUE TO THERE NOT BEING A WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHO REPLACED THE SHIFTER AND THE WIRING HOUSING. THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE NOTICED THAT WHEN IT WAS COLD OUTSIDE THEY NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO OPEN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ONCE THE TEMPERATURE WAS WARMER, SHE COULD HEAR WATER MOVING AROUND INSIDE THE DOOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 516.

SERVICE SHIFTER KEEPS POPPING ON MY DASHBOARD. CAR CAN BE TURNED OFF, KEY REMOVED FROM IGNITION, THEN WHEN STARTED AGAIN THE MESSAGE WILL GO AWAY. MESSAGE WILL REAPPEAR AFTER ABOUT 100 MILES OF DRIVING. MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN!

I'VE NEEDED TO ADD A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW. I RETURNED THE CAR TO THE DEALER AT APPROXIMATELY 3200 MILES AND WAS PUT ON AN "OIL CONSUMPTION MONITORING PROGRAM" WHERE I RETURNED THE CAR EVERY 1000 MILES FOR MEASURING THE OIL CONSUMPTION. THIS WAS DONE EVERY 1000 MILES AND THE CAR NOW HAS 15,700 MILES. WHEN I RETURNED TO THE DEALER TIME BEFORE LAST, I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE IT ANOTHER 1000 MILES, RETURN AND IF OIL MUST BE ADDED, CHRYSLER WILL "REPLACE THE ENGINE." WHEN I SCHEDULED MY LAST CONSUMPTION CHECK, I WAS TOLD CHRYSLER NOW UPPED THE CHECKING INTERVAL TO 1500 MILES. I THEREFOR DROVE THE CAR ANOTHER 500 MILES AND RETURNED TO THE DEALER ON 9/21/2020 WHERE THE THE CAR WAS CHECKED IN. AFTER THE CAR WAS CHECKED, THE SERVICE CHECK IN GUY TOLD ME THEY ADDED ANOTHER QUART, AND THAT I NEEDED TO PUT YET ANOTHER "1500 TO 1700" MILES ON THE VEHICLE, THEN RETURN FOR ANOTHER FINAL CHECK, AND IF OIL WAS NEEDED, THEY WOULD (ONCE AGAIN) REPLACE THE ENGINE. I UNDERSTAND FROM THE SERVICE PERSONAL, THAT IF THE ENGINE OIL QUANTITY DROPS TO TWO QUARTS BELOW FULL, THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF, AND THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CONSTANTLY COMES ON. 2017 CHEROKEE HAS BEEN HAPENNING SINCE 20,000 - NOW HAVE 30,000 . HAVE SEEN AND HEARD HORROR STORIES. DEALER SAYS NO ISSUES. WANTS TO CHARGE FOR REPAIRS.

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT COMES ON REGULARLY. THE CAR NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN AND RESTARTED MANY TIMES TO CLEAR THE FAULT. MANY CASES OF THIS ISSUE HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS A SYSTEMATIC ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE TYPES REQUIRING A RECALL

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON & ALL LIGHTS IN GEAR SELECT COME ON. THIS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. I CAN ONLY FIND INVOICES FOR TWO TIMES. EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT NEEDED AN UPDATE THEY DID THAT 2 DAYS LATER THE SAME THING. TOOK IT BACK NOW THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SHIFTER AND COMPONENTS SAYS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD TODAY(SEPT 19,2020), THE CAR BEEPED GIVING ME A WARNING ON THE SCREEN TO SERVICE SHIFTER, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE CONSOLE LIT UP RED. I PULLED THE CAR OVER, SHUT.IT OFF FOR 30 MIN. WHEN I STARTED IT BACK UP THE WARNING WENT OFF SO FAR BUT HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT AGAIN YET.

I HAVE ERROR MESSAGES THAT DISPLAY SAYING SERVICE GEAR SHIFTER NOW AND 4 WHEEL DRIVE UNAVILABLE. THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT CASE GENERALLY WHEN I AM DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN THE SERVICE GEAR SHIFTER LIGHTS COME ON ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY GEAR SHIFTER LIGHT UP AS WELL. THIS ONLY HAPPENS ABOUT 1X A MONTH. I TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE CENTER AND WAS TOLD I THINK I KNWO WHAT COULD BE CASING IT BUT WE COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND IF WE CANNOT GET THE CODE WE CANNOT FIX IT. UNFORTUNITLY WE WILL EITHER HAVE TO HAVE IT BROUGHT IN WHILE ITS DOING IT OR IT MAY HAVE TO COMPLETELY BREAK BEFORE WE CAN FIX IT. THERE IS A RECALL FOR OTEHR JEEPS SAME MAKE AND MODEL BUT NOT MY VIN. I ASKED IF THIS WAS UNSAFE FOR ME AND MY TWO YOUNG DAUGHTR AND WAS TOLD I DONT THINK SO. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH SINCE AND FOUND PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE THAT HAVE ALMOST DIED. I HAVE RECORDS SHOWING THEY WERE ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN IT OCCURED AND THERE JEEP LOCKED UP CASUING THEM TO BE HIT BY A SIMI TRUCK. THE JEEP WAS MANGLED. I HAVE INCLUDED PICTURES THE 1ST 4 OUR NOT MINE THE LAST IS AND I HAVE ONE OF ALL THE LIGHTS IN ON MY GEAR SHIFTER AS WELL BUT IT WOULD NOT ALLOW ANOTHER PICTURE.

SERVICE SHIFTER POPS UP WHEN STARTING VEHICLE

SINCE ABOUT 5K MILES MY SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON PERIODICALLY. DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED AND SAID THERE'S NO CODES SO DON'T WORRY WITH IT. NOW EVERY TIME I MAKE A LEFT TURN IT COMES ON. CLEARS WHEN YOU TURN VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON UNTIL NEXT LEFT TURN. NOW I HAVE 122K ON IT STILL HAPPENS. SOMETIMES IT WILL CAUSE ERRATIC ACCELERATION. AT A STOP LIGHT IT WILL TURN ON THE PARKING BRAKE AND KILL THE ENGINE. AGAIN CLEARS WITH TURN OFF ON

WHEN I START MY CAR THE DISPLAY ON THE DASHBOARD SHOWS 'SERVICE SHIFTER' AND ALL THE GEAR NAME LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER LIGHT UP RED. THE NOTIFICATION ON THE DISPLAY WILL NOT GO AWAY AND THE LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF UNTIL THE ENGINE IS TURNED OFF. THIS HAPPENS IF THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY WHEN THE ENGINE IS TURNED ON AND SOMETIMES WILL HAPPEN RANDOMLY WHOLE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. OFTEN THIS WILL HAPPEN AS I AM IN THE PROCESS OF BRAKING TO PARK AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THIS HAPPENS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, BUT MOST OFTEN AT LOWER LEVEL SPEEDS IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS.

SHIFTER LIGHTS COME ON WHEN DRIVING A LOT. HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN OFF THEN RESTART. THIS IS DANGERS AS IT IS HAPPENING ON A HIGHWAY

THE "SERVICE SHIFTER" WARNING COMES UP ON THE SCREEN SOMETIMES WHEN THE VEHICLE IS FIRST TURNED ON AND OTHER TIMES IT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. WE TOOK IT DO THE DEALER AND THEY SCANNED CODES AND THE CODE FOR A PROBLEM DETECTED WITH THE ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE CAME UP. THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER REPLACED THE SHIFTER BEZEL AND THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THAT PART. THIS WAS DONE JULY 19, 2019. WITHIN THE LAST 2 MONTHS, THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING AGAIN; SO NOW THE PART AND WIRING HARNESS NEEDS REPLACED AGAIN.

HAVING SERIOUS SHIFTING ISSUES AND IT IS BEING IGNORED BY THE MANUFACTURER AS SOMETHING THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE A CHARACTERISTIC FOR THIS VEHICLE WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. DEALER ADVISED TO LOOK ON INTERNET AND SEE THE CRASHES CAUSED BY NOT FIXING IT. HAPPENS WHEN IN MOTION AND WHEN SHIFTING THE VEHICLE INTO AND OUT OF GEAR.

ALL OF A SUDDEN "SERVICE SHIFTER" COME ON SCREEN WITH THE SHIFTER LIGHTS ALL ILLUMINATED RED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THIS MORNING THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE WIRES IN THE GEARSHIFT AND A PLASTIC PIECE HAVE TO BE REPLACED. BECAUSE THIS HAPPENED AT 38,103 MILES IT IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY ANYMORE, HAD IT HAPPENED UNDER 36,000 MILES IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED

THE GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR LIGHTS ALL CAME ON, A SERVICE SHIFTER ERROR CODE. I HAD TO PULL OVER PUT IT IN PARK AND TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND THEN TURN IT BACK ON AND IT RESET ITSELF. IN FEBRUARY 2019, THE SAME THING HAPPENED AND THEY FIXED THE ISSUE . THE PARTS WERE WARRANTIED FOR 2 YEARS OR 24,000 MILES ACCORDING TO WESTGATE JEEP IN RALEIGH NORTH CAROLINA. A WEEK OR LATER THE GEAR SHIFT ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN AND THEN I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AT WESTGATE IN RALEIGH.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AS I'M DRIVING MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING CAME UP ON THE DISPLAY SCREEN THE FRONT TIRES LOCK UP AND WON'T MOVE I'VE HAD IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWO DIFFERENT TIMES AND THEY TELL ME NOTHINGS WRONG WITH IT AND TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO KEEP DRIVING IT UNTIL THEY COULD RE-CREATE THE INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES

THE 1ST TIME THIS WENT OFF, I WAS LEAVING WORK AND JUST STARTED MY VEHICLE. THE 2ND TIME ON SEPTEMBER 9, 2020 IT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE SEEN PICTURES OF PEOPLE VEHICLES IN ACCIDENTS, AFTER THIS HAPPENED. THEY STATE THAT THE VEHICLE GOES INTO PARK ALL BY ITSELF. THOSE SCARES ME TO DEATH, THIS VEHICLE NEEDS RECALLED!

WHEN MY CHEROKEE STOPED THE DASH READ SHIFT TO PARK THEN SELECT A GEAR. THE NEXT TIME IT DIED AGAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD I WAS RUNNING 55 MPH, THE OIL LIGHT FLICKERED FOR A SPLIT SECOND AND THE CAR DIED. THE CAR LOT I BOUGHT FROM SAID THEY FOUND NO ISSUE THIS IS AN ISSUE IT IS GOING TO GET ME OR MY KIDS HURT. I HAVE NO WARNING WHEN IT WILL SHUT DOWN. THE ONLY LIGHTS THAT COME ON IS THE SHIFT INTO PARK PRESS BRAKE SELECT GEAR. IT IS TERRIFYING I USE THIS JEEP CHEROKEE TO TRANSPORT MY KIDS. IT IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY.

I WAS SIMPLY DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT APROX 30 MPH. I HEARD A DING LOOKED AT MY DASH AND SERVICE SHIFTER SOON NOTICE WAS ON MY DASH. LOOKED DOWN AT GEAR SHIFT ALL LIGHTS WHERE RED P R N D +..

NEW PROBLEM OCCURRED YESTERDAY (2 DAYS AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY), THE CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE WHILE DRIVING!!!! LUCKILY THE CAR BEHIND ME WAS PAYING ATTENTION AND DID NOT REAR-END ME. NO WARNING, JUST STOPPED. THE DASH FLASHED "SHIFT TO DRIVE". I WAS ALREADY IN GEAR. AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS OF TRYING TO START THE CAR, THE CAR STARTED BACK. IT TOOK AN ADDITIONAL 10-15 SECONDS FOR THE CAR TO ACTUALLY MOVE EVEN THOUGH I WAS PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME. THE OIL WAS CHANGED 1000 MILES AGO. NO STORED CODES, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NO WARNING BEFORE THE INCIDENT HAPPENED....NOTHING!!! I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS AND READ MULTIPLE FORUMS WITH NO RESULT BEING FOUND. THE CAR GOES TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY BUT I WAS TOLD IF THE CAR IS NOT THROWING ANY FAULTS, IT IS GOING TO BE HARD TO DIAGNOSE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AS IT IS GOING TO CAUSE A WRECK.

SHIFTER PROBLEM WIRING

WELL OVER A YEAR AGO THE "SERVICE SHIFTER" MESSAGE BEGAN COMING ON AND OFF APPEARING ON MY JEEP DASHBOARD. I CALLED MY DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT SERVICED. I WAS TOLD THAT IF THE LIGHT WAS NOT ON THERE WASN'T ANYTHING THEY COULD DO. AFTER SOME TIME PAST IT STOPPED COMING ON. APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS AGO IT STARTED COMING ON AND OFF AGAIN. I CALLED THE DEALER AGAIN AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A "KNOWN ISSUE" AND TO BRING IT IN. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT BUT A WEEK BEFORE THE APPOINTMENT MY JEEP WOULDN'T START. THE SHITFTER WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER WAS STRUGGLING TO BE ABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO GET THE JEEP OUT FO THE GARAGE. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER WHO HAD MY CAR FOR 2 FULL DAYS THAT THE BATTERY WAS MESSED UP AND THERE WAS LOST COMMUNICATION. I WAS TOLD THEY ALSO SAW PREVIOUS MESSAGES REGARDING THE SHIFTER. THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AND ALL THE CODES WERE CLEARED. THEY APPARENTLY TEST DROVE THE CAR AND COULD NOT GET THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE TO COME BACK UP. I WAS TOLD I COULD REPLACE THE BEZEL AND HARNESS PARTS OF THE SHIFTER BUT I HAD TO PAY FOR IT BECAUSE I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE PARTS HAD BEEN RECONFIGURED. IF THEY KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM AND RECONFIGURED THE PARTS WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL? WHY DIDN'T THEY REPLACE THIS WHEN I CALLED THEM THE FIRST TIME AND WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY? I'VE RESEARCHED THIS ONLINE AND HAVE SEEN A LOT OF INDIVIDUALS WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. ALSO, WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP MY JEEP THE FIRST THING THAT HAPPENED WAS A LOW TIRE MESSAGE. I PUT NEW TIRES ON THE JEEP ONE MONTH AGO. I CROSSED THE STREET TO GAS STATION TO AIR PUMP AND ALL TIRES WERE FINE. I WENT BACK TO DEALER AND THEY CHECKED THEM. ALL WERE FINE. I WAS TOLD THEY HAD NO IDEA WHY LIGHT WAS ON AND I WOULD HAVE TO MAKE ANOTHER APPT. THEY HAD THE CAR FOR 2 DAYS! I AM BEYOND FRUSTRATED!!!!!

WHILE DRIVING THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHTER APPEARS ON DASH AND SHIFTER POSITION LIGHTS ALL LIGHT RANDOMLY AND HAS BEEN BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. THEY TURN OFF ONCE I STOP, TURN THE CAR OFF, AND RESTART THE CAR. I HAVE READ MODELS PREVIOUSLY HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE BUT NOT 2017 WHICH APPEARS TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUES. ALSO I'VE HAD TO CHANGE MY SPARK PLUGS AT ABOUT EVERY 50,000 MILES. I REPLACED THEM ONCE ALREADY AND ONCE AGAIN I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND AT TIMES THE CAR IS SHAKING FROM THE MISFIRING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON AT A TIMES. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES AND THE CAR IS SHAKING THE POWER AND ACCELERATION ARE SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED WHEN THE SPARK PLUGS ARE ACTIVELY MISFIRING. THIS ONLY OCCURS WITH ACCELERATING AND PRESSING ON GAS PEDAL AND HAPPENS CONSTANTLY WHILE DRIVING. I'VE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE SPARK PLUGS THIS OFTEN THEY USUALLY LAST ATLEAST 100,000 MILES. THERE IS A PROBLEM WHEN THEY BARELY LAST FOR HALF THAT AND REQUIRE REPLACEMENT ATLEAST 2 TIMES BEFORE THEY SHOULD GO BAD. THESE SEEM TO BE A COMMON ISSUE BUT WHEN YOU ASK THE DEALER THEY ACT CLUELESS AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. THESE ARE COSTLY PROBLEMS THAT SHOULD NOT BE OCCURRING OR OCCURRING THIS FREQUENTLY. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.

2017 WITH 34K ON IT AND ON A MINIMUM OF 2 HANDS I HAVE HAD THE ERROR SERVICE SHIFTER COME UP. AFTER CAR IS TURNED OFF, IT WILL GO AWAY FOR NO SPECIFIC AMOUNT OF TIME AND THEN EVENTUALLY POP BACK UP EITHER WHILE DRIVING OR FIRST START UP OF THE DAY.

'SERVICE REQUIRED' LIGHT CAME ON, SHIFTER BEZZLE NEEDS REPLACED ACCORDING TO DEALER, THEY SAID IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY, THEY CANNOT GET THE PART FOR WEEKS AND SAID I CANNOT DRIVE IT BECAUSE THE SHIFTER COULD 'GO OUT AT ANY TIME', IT IS $450 FOR THE PART ALONE, AND NOW NEED A RENTAL.

THE CAR AFTER A CERTAIN NUMBER OF MILES THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE COMES ON AND ALL THE LIGHTS FOR THE SHIFTER ARE SOLID RED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A COMPUTER UPDATE AND THAT WAS IT. IT'S KEPT HAPPENING EVER SINCE 15000 MILES.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEPT COMING ON WHILE DRIVING DUE TO A FAULTY WIRING HARNESS AND ALL GEARS LIT UP RED. I WAS CHARGED $375 TO HAVE IT FIXED, BUT IF YOU SEARCH THE FORUMS IT IT IS HAPPENING TO EVERYONE WITH A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE.

SHIFTER SERVICE ALERT ON 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE TRAIL HAWK WITH LOW MILAGE (19,000)

DRIVING OFF ROAD THROUGH MUD. WAS NOT TRAVELING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED... PROCEEDED TO DRIVE UPHILL THROUGH MUD AND SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.

I HAD JUST GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE AND WAS GOING DOWN THE EXIT RAMP AT APPROXIMATELY 40MPH WHEN SRVC 4WD INDICATOR LIGHT CAME UP ON THE DASH. I DROVE HOME WHICH WAS APPROXIMATELY 15 MILES AWAY. I PARKED AT THE HOUSE, TURNED THE JEEP OFF. WAITED A COUPLE MINUTES AND TURNED IT BACK ON TO SEE IF THE LIGHT WENT OUT. IT DID NOT. IT WAS ABOUT 8PM AND THE DEALERSHIPS WERE CLOSED SO I PLANNED ON MAKING THE PHONE CALL THE NEXT MORNING TO HAVE IT CHECKED AS I HAD JUST RECEIVED A RRECALL ABOUT MY PTU/SPLINES/DIFF ANYWAYS THAT ALSO NEEDED TO BE CHECKED. ABOUT 15 MINUTES LATER I WENT OUTSIDE TO MOVE MY LAWNMOWER AND NOTICED A HUGE PUDDLE OF DARK GREY GREASE ON THE CONCRETE BEHIND MY JEEP.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL SELECTIONS LIGHT UP. THIS HAPPENED S WHILE DRIVING . I PARK AND START THE ENGINE 3 HOURS LATER NOW IS OFF.

3 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED MY JEEP IT SHIFTS TERRIBLY. IT DOES NOT DO IT 100% OF THE TIME THOUGH. IT GETS STUCK IN GEARS WHEN SHIFTING THEN REVS TO HIGH RPMS OR JENKS FORWARD. OFTEN TIMES IT FEELS LIKE YOU GET REAR ENDED IT JERKS SO BAD. I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP A FEW TIMES, AND MOST MECHANICS SAY IT IS NORMAL. I AM AFRAID IT WILL JERK FORWARD AND I WILL RUN INTO SOMEONE ONE OF THESE DAYS. IT IS WORSE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, HOT DAYS WHEN A/C IS RUNNING, ETC. IT DOES NOT PERFORM ANY DIFFERENTLY WHEN VEHICLE IS WARMED UP. IT SLIPS GEARS AT BOTH HIGH SPEED AND LOW SPEED, MAKING A LOUD NOISE AND ABRUPT MOTION FORWARD.

I KEEP HAVING TO DO OIL CHANGES WITHIN A 1 1/2 MONTHS WITHOUT EVEN GOING 3,000 MILES. ALSO MY CAR SHUTS ON AND OFF RANDOMLY AND THE POWER GOES OUT ON THE RADIO AND SPEEDOMETER. I'VE TAKEN MY CAR IN AND THEY RUN A DIAGNOSTIC AND ALWAYS TELL ME THAT EVERYTHING WITH THE CAR IS FINE. THIS SHUT OFF SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN I STOP AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. ALL THE POWER SEEMS TO GO OUT AND THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF. THE LIGHTS ON THE RADIO AND SPEEDOMETER HAVE GONE BLACK WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION, IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE I'M DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY I'M HAVING TO GET MORE FREQUENT OIL CHANGES.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE ON JULY 27TH PAYING 28,000 DOLLARS FOR IT. I TEST DRIVE IT AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. TWO DAYS LATER MY 'SERVICE SHIFTER' LIGHT CANE ON AND EVERYTHING BY MY SHIFTER WAS ILLUMINATED. TODAY (08/03/2020) IT HAPPENED AGAIN. NUMEROUS PEOPLE ONLINE HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THEIR JEEPS DOING THE SAME THING. I HAVE UNDER 60,000 MILES ON THIS JEEP AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. I CAN END UP BEING STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS I TRAVEL A LOT. PLEASE RECALL THIS ISSUE AS MANY PEOPLE ARE PAYING TO GET THIS FIXED WHEN IT'S NOT THE CAR OWNERS FAULT.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON AND GEAR SHIFT LIGHTS ARE ALL RED,P,R,N,D. HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T68742_DS990296

THIS JEEP CHEROKEES OIL IS EVAPORATING CAUSING MY CAR TO CUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGH WAY. I CHECK MY OIL EVERY OTHER DAY. MY OIL EVAPORATES WHILE DRIVING I HAVE HAD THE CAR CHECKED FOR OIL LEAKS 5 TIMES. THIS VEHICLE ALSO CUTS OFF AND SAY SHIFTER AND I HAVE TO PULL OVER TURN THE VEHICLE OFF LET SIT FOR 5 MINUTES THEN RESTART. I HAVE ALSO HAD TO GET A TUNE UP AT 50000 MILES DUE TO MANUFACTURAL DEFECT ACCORDING TO MY MECHANIC AN ALERT SHOWED THEM WHAT WAS WRONG. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN STRUCK BY OTHER VEHICLES WHILE I AM TRYING TO GET OVER LANES TO PULL ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SO MUCH SO I WILL NOT DRIVE WITH MY GROWN CHILDREN AND DEFINITLY NOT MY GRANDCHILDREN.

MY KEEP IS NOT EVEN AT 30.000 AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON. I WENT TO TURN IT ON FROM THE PARKING LOT AND THAT'S WHEN I NOTICED IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATED WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN. THE SERVICE SHIFT LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE LIGHT DISAPPEARED. THE CONTACT SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH UPSTATE AUTO SERVICE & BODY WORKS (469 BROADWAY, SARANAC LAKE, NY 12983 518-891-1211). THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PIN TENSION IN THE SHIFTER NEEDED TO BE RESET AND SECURELY ATTACHED TO THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,900.

ON A RECURRING BASIS, THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP WITH A "SERVICE SHIFTER NOW" MESSAGE AND ALL LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFT ARE ILLUMINATED. AFTER A RESTART, THE LIGHTS GO AWAY AND THE CAR RESUMES NORMAL FUNCTIONALITY. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE PAST 6-8 MONTHS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS BECAME ILLUMINATED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THE ENGINE STALLED AND THE STEERING WHEEL CEASED. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE COASTED TO CURB. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE TO HER DESTINATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MILTON RUBEN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 3508 WASHINGTON RD, AUGUSTA, GA 30907, (762) 224-5967, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BEZEL NEEDED TO BE REWIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,667.*DT CONSUMER STATED THERE IS A LOSS OF CONTROL WHEN VEHICLE IS DRIVEN.*JB

WHILE DRIVING 40 -50 MPH ON HIGHWAY 89 IN FLAGSTAFF, AZ I NOTICED A DASH MESSAGE STATING THAT THE SPEED WAS TOO HIGH TO SHIFT INTO 4 WHEEL LOW, ABOUT A MINUTE LATER I NOTICED A DASH MESSAGE THAT STATED THE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK COULD NOT OCCUR AND I NOTICED THAT THE 4 WHEEL LOW BUTTON WAS FLASHING RED. A MINUTE LATER DASH MESSAGE 4 WHEEL LOW WAS CANCELED AND THE 4 WHEEL LOW LIGHT STOPPED FLASHING. I STOPPED AT ABOUT 3 LIGHTS ABOUT 1 MILE APART. ON THE 3RD LIGHT I HAD TO TURN LEFT AND MERGE INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEFORE ENTERING INTERSTATE 40. AS I BEGAN TO ACCELERATE THE TRANSMISSION BUCKED SEVERAL TIMES AND THEN AS I MOVED IN FRONT OF ON COMING TRAFFIC THE DRIVE SYSTEM DISENGAGED AND THE ENGINE REVVED. THERE WAS NO DASH MESSAGE NOR WERE THERE ANY TRANS AXLE LIGHTS FLASHING. AS I COASTED TO A STOP TRAFFIC WAS PILING UP BEHIND ME. I PLACED THE THE TRANSMISSION INTO NEUTRAL AND THEN BACK INTO DRIVE, BUT IT DID NOT ENGAGE. AS I WAS ALMOST STOPPED, I HIT THE BRAKES AND STOPPED, THEN TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND PLACED THE TRANSMISSION INTO PARK. I THEN RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND IT SHUT OFF, SO I STARTED IT AGAIN AND PLACED THE TRANSMISSION INTO DRIVE AND IT ENGAGED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THERE WAS NOTHING THEY NOTICED OR COULD DO. ALTHOUGH I DID NOT THINK I HAD PRESSED THE 4 WHEEL LOW BUTTON, I CONSIDERED THAT I MAY HAVE INADVERTENTLY, SO AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP I TESTED TO SEE IF I COULD CREATE THE SAME CONDITION AND I COULD NOT. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE BUTTONS FOR THE TRANS AXLE WERE NOT EASY TO PUSH INADVERTENTLY. ALSO, WHEN PUSHED THE LIGHTS ON THE BUTTONS WOULD FLASH YELLOW AND NOT RED. THIS TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SLOW TO ENGAGE AND BUCK AT TIMES SINCE NEW. IT ALSO GOES INTO NEUTRAL WHEN TRYING TO DOWNSHIFT BEFORE SHIFTING TO A LOWER GEAR ON DOWN SLOPES. I AM WORRIED THAT IT COULD BE DANGEROUS IF THIS CONDITION OCCURS AGAIN AT THE WRONG TIME.

WHEN COMING TO A STOP ON A CITY STREET MY VEHICLE DINGED, TURNED OFF AND A MESSAGE DISPLAYED ON THE DASH 'SHIFT TO PARK OR NEUTRAL, PRESS BRAKE, SELECT GEAR'. I COULD NOT USE MY STEERING WHEEL OR BREAKS DURING THIS TIME. I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND FULL TOOK MY KEY OUT. THEN ATTEMPTED TO START IT. I ONLY HEARD A SLIGHT SOUND BUT NO TURN OVER. I REPEATED THIS STEP AND THIS TIME, AFTER MOMENTARILY SPUTTERING, I WAS ABLE TO GIVE THE CAR GAS AND IT STAYED ON. I COULD SMELL OIL AT THIS POINT. IT SEEMS THIS IS RELATED TO EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION, WHICH TRIGGERS THE CAR TO SHUT OFF TO PROTECT THE ENGINE. EXCEPT THE OIL LEVEL IN THE VEHICLE IS FINE AND THERE ARE NO PRIOR WARNINGS BEFORE THIS HAPPENS.

I HAVE A SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING THAT PERIODICALLY APPEARS. THIS CAR HAS 145000 HIGHWAY MILES DRIVEN FOR SALES JOB. IT BEGAN LAST YEAR IN 2019 WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD AROUND 90000 MILES AND APPEARS BOTH WHEN I START THE VEHICLE AND ALSO WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE

ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO A LIGHT ON THE SCREEN APPEARED AND SAID "SERVICE SHIFTER" AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER TURNED ON, THE D, R AND SO ON. I HAD TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND RESTART IT INORDER TO GET THE WARNING LABEL OFF THE SCREEN AND GET THE LIGHTS OFF. NOW TODAY, MY CAR WILL NOT TURN ON. IT ACTS LIKE IT'S GOING TO START BUT NOTHING HAPPENS. THE RADIO AND OTHER ELECTRICAL THINGS TURN ON SO LEADS ME TO BELIEVE IT'S NOT THE BATTERY.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE. I WAS TOLD I NEED A NEW SHIFTER CABLE AND MODULE.

THIS IS ABOUT THE SHIFTER. WE BEGAN GETTING WARNING MESSAGE ABOUT "SHIFTER ERROR". SHORTLY AFTER THAT MY WIFE TOLD ME SHE HAD PROBLEMS "MAKING THE CAR TURN OFF" IN OUR DRIVEWAY. I GOT IN AND COULD NOT PUT THE CAR IN PARK. I FIDDLED WITH IT UNTIL I FINALLY GOT IT INTO PARK AND TRIED TO TURN THE JEEP OFF BUT EVEN WITH THE ENGINE OFF ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL THINGS (RADIO, DASHBOARD LIGHTS, BEEPING, INTERIOR LIGHTS ETC..) WERE STILL GOING. I COULD NOT RESTART THE JEEP WITHOUT A JUMPER CABLE. WHEN I RESTARTED THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WENT BACK TO "NORMAL". I TRIED TO TURN THE JEEP OFF AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I WENT THROUGH THE SAME PROCESS AGAIN, GOT THE JEEP STARTED AND DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. FIRST THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS JUST A BAD BATTERY. WHEN I COMPLAINED ABOUT ALL OF THE NEWS ABOUT SHIFTER PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODEL THEY TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY AND THE "SHIFT BEZEL AND HARNESS" NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I AM 4 WEEKS OUT OF MY 3 YEAR WARRANTY SO I PAID $857.02 FOR THIS WORK. THE SERVICE MAN PUT A NOTE ON BILL THAT SAYS "IF LIGHT COMES BACK ON WE NEED TO "REPLACE SHIFTER ALSO - $890.00" I BELIEVE THAT THIS ISSUE IS A SAFETY DEFECT NOT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR AND THAT THE 2017 JEEP SHOULD BE RECALLED. MY WIFE IS NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE HER JEEP. ALSO, THE "SHIFTER ERROR" MESSAGE JUST CAME BACK ON ONE DAY AFTER GETTING THE JEEP BACK. THE SERVICE MAN TOLD ME THAT SOMETIMES THE JEEP DOES NOT RECOGNIZE IT WHEN THE JEEP IS IN PARK. PLEASE HELP. SOME IS GOING TO GET HURT. TRY GOOGLING "JEEP SHIFTER" AND YOU'LL SEE HOW MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS EXACT PROBLEM ARE OUT THERE.

HEATED STEERING WHEEL DOESN'T STAY ON EVEN BELOW 40 DEGREES. ON HAS TO TURN IT ON AND OFF IN ORDER TO WORK. WITHIN THREE MINUTES THE HEATED STEERING WHEEL TURNS COLD. TOOK JEEP CHEROKEE TO 2 DEALERSHIP ONE REPLACE THE STEERING WHEEL AND IT STILL DOESN'T WORK PROPERTY IS STILL TURNS OFF WITHIN 3 MINUTES AND IT GETS COLD. SOFTWARE UPDATE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. IT MIGHT BE ELECTRICAL/WIRING PROBLEM. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON HEATED STEERING WHEEL AT JEEP FORUMS AND CARGURU WEBSITE. I WAS LOOKING FOR ANSWERS HOW TO FIX IT.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND IT POPPED UP SERVICE SHIFTER. I HAVEN'T HAD THE VEHICLE VERY LONG I'M UP TO 90,000 MILES. I TURNED THE JEEP OFF AND IT WENT AWAY L. A WEEK LATER IT SHOWED UP AGAIN AND IT'S GOES OFF. IT SHIFTS FUNNY. I WAS ON A CITY STREET WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

VEHICLE WAS IN AN ACCIDENT ON 06/27/2020. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ON A ROAD FLIPPED 6-8 TIMES AND IMPACTED 3 TREES. NO AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED.*DT*JB

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL SELECTIONS LIGHT UP. THIS HAPPENED S WHILE DRIVING AND THEN CAN'T BE RESET UNTIL CAR IS SHUT OFF. THE CODE BLOCKS THE INSTRUMENT PANEL.

THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFT ALL CAME ON (P, R, N, D) AND ON MY DASHBOARD INSTRUMENT PANEL IT SAID "SERVICE SHIFTER". I SHUT THE CAR DOWN AND RESTARTED, WHICH CORRECTED THE ISSUE TEMPORARILY. HOWEVER IT HAS NOW HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST WEEK. IT HAPPENED TWICE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND ONCE WHEN IT WAS MOVING ON A CITY STREET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE 4X4. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AS THE GEARS LIGHT UP. THE CONTACT VEERED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD, TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON WHICH FAILED TO RESUME BACK TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE THEN WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED BUT THE PART REPAIRED WAS UNKNOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE HOWEVER NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS TAKEN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,600.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL SHIFT GEARS (PARK, NEUTRAL, REVERSE,DRIVE ) LIGHT UP IN RED AFTER DRIVING ON MOUNTAIN ROAD. PULLED TO SIDE AND TURNED CAR OFF. RESET LIGHT BUT CAME ON AGAIN 20 MIN LATER . APPARENTLY KNOWN ISSUE WITH JEEPS.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING APPEARS AND ALL RED LIGHTS APPEAR ON THE SHIFTER. TODAY WHILE DRIVING THE MESSAGE POPPED UP AND MY CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. I WAS TRYING TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN WHEN THIS HAPPENED. *TR

BOUGHT THIS 2017 JEEP NEW WITH 23 MILES ON IT. WITHIN A YEAR THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT STARTED COMING ON. ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER ALUMINATE. THERE IS A CONSTANT WARNING ON THE DASH THAT CAN'T BE CLEARED UNTIL IT IS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED. RESTART WOULD CLEAR THE LIGHT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM M IT HAS SINCE GOTTEN WORSE AND HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS PUT IN REVERSE. OF COURSE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY NOW BUT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND HAS MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON MULTIPLE THREADS. THIS CAN EVENTUALLY LEAD TO RANDOM POWER LOSS ISSUES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS A RECALL.

THE CAR HAS A SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT ON AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER ARE LIT RED FOR EXAMPLE THE PARKING, REVERSE, DRIVE, NEUTRAL. THE CAR STARTED DRIVING REALLY ROUGH AND NOW THERE IS A RATTLING NOISE. BOUGHT THE CAR AROUND 1 MONTH AGO AND IT IS ALREADY GIVING PROBLEMS. THE CAR ONLY HAS 19,000 MILES AND WHEN I GOOGLED THE PROBLEM I SEE SEVERAL PEOPLE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM THEN THE DEALER FIXED THE PROBLEM CHARGING SOME PEOPLE BUT THE PROBLEM CAME BACK AS WELL AS CAUSING LEAKS OR OTHER PROBLEMS. THE VEHICLE WAS SITTING AT HOME THEN WHEN TURNED ON THE LIGHTS CAME ON AND THEN TURNED OFF THE LIGHTS WENT OFF A COUPLE TIMES BY RESTARTING THE ENGINE BUT NOW IT ALWAYS STAYS ON AS WELL AS CAUSES A RATTLING NOISE AS WELL AS VERY ROUGH DRIVING.

SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARS AND ALL GEAR SHIFT LIGHTS TURN RED, SO NO IDEA WHAT GEAR I'M IN. MUST SHUT DOWN ENGINE AND RESTART, WHICH FIXES THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY. SOMETIMES REQUIRES MULTIPLE RESTART ATTEMPTS BEFORE LIGHTS GO OFF.

CONTINUALLY GETTING SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THEN ALL GEARS LIGHT UP RED, FOR EXAMPLE, PDRN. I HAVE HEARD OF MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE AND HEARD THAT THE CAR MAY EVEN LOCK UP. *TR

SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE AND JEEP SAYS THAT THIS IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. I?VE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE AND WOULD REQUEST AN INVESTIGATION FOR A RECALL SINCE THIS SEEM TO BE A LIFE THREATENING SITUATION AND IT ALSO SEEMS THAT JEEP IS BOTH CARING THAT MUCH ABOUT IT. THEY SAY WE NEED TO CHANGE THE SHIFTER. CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS ONLY 25K MILES. THIS IS HAPPENING VERY OFTEN NOW. AND TO HAVE THE CAR TURNED OFF AND THEN BACK ON IS NOT A SOLUTION TO ME AND MANY OTHER JEEP BUYERS. COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED AND WOULD NEVER BUY A JEEP CHEROKEE AGAIN. *TR

GETTING A SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE AND THE LIGHTS NEXT TO MY GEAR SHIFT ALL TURN RED. I CHECKED ONLINE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A JEEP CHEROKEE ONLY ISSUE AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR EITHER GOT THEIR CAR BACK WITHOUT THE ISSUE BEING RESOLVED OR THE DEALER DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO RESOLVE IT OR THE CAR CAME BACK IN WORSE CONDITION THAN BEFORE. THIS IS CLEARLY A JEEP CHEROKEE MANUFACTURING FAULT THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED WITH A RECALL. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF MY LIGHTS CAME ON PRND AND THEN SAID SERVICE SHIFTER. AFTER RESTARTING THE CAR THE WARNING GOES OFF. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND WHEN YOU TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALER THEY CHARGE $180 TO DIAGNOSE AND THEN SAY THAT IT IS NOT THE ENGINE SO IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR BUT DON'T HAVE $180 EVERY TIME THIS LIGHT COMES ON AND I'M NOT KNOWING WHAT GEAR I'M IN BECAUSE ALL OF THEM ARE HIGHLIGHTED. THIS HAS OCCURRED WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, TURNING DOWN THE STREET AND ALSO WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT. *TR

MY JEEP HAS ABOUT 26,000 MILES ON IT, SINCE I'VE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT, IT HAS BEEN TOWED 6 TIMES FOR ENGINE FAILURE. MY ENGINE IS BURNING THE OIL, WITH OUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR SHUTS OFF. THE DEALER INSISTS THIS IS NORMAL, BUT IT IS NOT NORMAL FOR A CAR TO ABSORB OR BURN OIL. *TR

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNINGS COME ON ALL THE TIME WHILE DRIVING. ALSO HARD KNOCK WHEN CAR IS SHIFTING GEARS. *TR

SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE COMES UP IN THE MESSAGE CENTER ON THE DASH, AND PRND LIGHTS UP RED WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. PULLING OVER AND TURNING THE ENGINE OFF SOMETIMES MAKES THE MESSAGE GO AWAY, OTHER TIMES IT PERSISTS. PROBLEM STARTED AT AROUND 11,000 MILES. HAPPENS RANDOMLY, AND DEALERS CANNOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. *TR

JEEP CHEROKEE 2017 LAST MONTH AT ABOUT 28,000 I WAS DRIVING ON THE THRU WAY WHEN THE SHIFTER LIGHTS ALL LIT UP RED AND THE DASH SAID SERVICE SHIFTER. I PULL OVER, SWITCHED CAR ON AND OFF AND IT WAS FIXED. ONE MONTH LATER, MY CAR WAS SITTING IN PARK - I MOVED FROM MY PARKING SPOT TO A NEW ONE- PLACED JEEP IN PARK AND THEN NOTICED ALL OF THE LIGHTS RED ON THE SHIFTER AND THE DASH SAYING 'SERVICE SHIFTER'

SHIFTER ERROR THEN TURNS OFF RANDOMLY. ESPECIALLY ON TURNS

WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP HAS JUST SHUT OFF ON ME ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASION LEAVING ME TO JUST COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THEN WHEN I TURNED THE KEY OFF AND TRY TO RESTART THE CAR IT JUST KEPT TURNING OVER AND TOOK A WHILE TO START BACK UP. *TR

JEEP CHEROKEE IS GETTING A "SERVICE SHIFTER" ERROR. ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER LIGHT UP AT ONE TIME. ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO TURN THE JEEP OFF AND THEN BACK ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN MOVING AND STATIONARY. HAPPENING ABOUT EVERY TWO WEEKS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE HESITATED WHILE ACCELERATING. ADDITIONALLY, THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. *BF*JB

JEEP STALLS EVERY A COUPLE OF WEEKS. DETERMINED THAT THE JEEP BURNS OIL AND WITH NO INDICATION THE CAR WILL JUST STALL WITH NO WARNING AT ALL. WHEN IT STALLS I DETERMINED THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS EXTREMELY LOW. THIS HAPPENS WITH LESS THAN 4000 MILES. I SEE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON LINE ABOUT THIS. VERY SCARING WHEN IT JUST STALLS WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING. NO WAY SHOULD A VEHICLE BURN THAT MUCH OIL WITH ONLY DRIVING 5000 MILES OR LESS. *TR

FOR OVER A MONTH NOW I'VE RECEIVED"SERVICE SHIFTER" MESSAGE. CAR SHAKES BADLY AND LOSES POWER AS IF ITS GOING TO SHUT OFF. THREE DIFFERENT TIMES IT DID SHUT OFF AND STRUGGLED TO RE-CRANK! SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE GOES AWAY AFTER TURNING THE JEEP OFF & BACK ON. VERY UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY (OR ANYWHERE)!!! PURCHASED BRAND NEW AND IS UP TO DATE ON OIL CHANGES, ETC. JEEP ALSO BURNS MORE OIL THAN IT SHOULD. *TR

THE SERVICE SHIFTER HAS COME ON MULTIPLE TIMES LATELY AND IT REQUIRES ME TO SHUT THE CAR DOWN COMPLETELY. ONCE RESTARTED THE CAR RUNS PERFECTLY UNTIL ABOUT ANOTHER 300 MILES OR SO AND THE SERVICE LIGHT COMES BACK ON. RECENTLY MY CAR WILL SHOW SERVICE SHIFTER THEN IT JUST SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I'VE BEEN SEEING MORE AND MORE PEOPLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AND IT SHOULD DEFINITELY BE SOMETHING THEY INVESTIGATE AND RECALL IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO JUST BE DRIVING AND YOUR CAR DECIDES TO SHUT OFF. *TR

DEFECTIVE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT STRUT BEGAN KNOCKING ON UNPAVED ROADS AT 14,000 MILES ON 1 YEAR OLD JEEP CHEROKEE. DEALER VERIFIED DEFECTIVE STRUT AND REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. NOW AT 31,000 MILES PASSENGER SIDE FRONT STRUT HAS SEVERE KNOCKING EVEN ON SMALL BUMPS IN ROAD AND VEHICLE FRONT END SHUDDERS UPON BRAKING. APPARENTLY, THIS OTHER SIDE STRUT IS ALSO DEFECTIVE. WORKING WITH JEEP TO VERIFY DEFECTIVE STRUT AND HAVE REPLACED. UPON RESEARCH, HAVE SEEN OWNER COMMENTS ABOUT MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN FRONT STRUTS OF SEVERAL JEEP VEHICLES. *TR

I WAS DRIVING OUR 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE WITH MY FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE, INCLUDING WIFE AND 2 CHILDREN (5 PLUS INFANT). WE WERE TRAVELING ~20 MILES PER HOUR WHEN THE CAR SHUT DOWN. THE CAR WAS STILL MOVING AS WE WERE TRAVELING DOWNHILL, AND WAS IN THE DRIVE GEAR. WE WERE UNABLE TO STOP AS THERE WAS NO WAY TO PULL OFF IMMEDIATELY. THE GAS PEDAL STOPPED WORKING FIRST, THEN THE BRAKE STOPPED WORKING AS WELL. I HAD TO ENGAGE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND JAM MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN. THE SITUATION WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. ONCE THE CAR STOPPED, WE TURNED IT OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON AGAIN. AFTER POWER CYCLING THE CAR, IT RETURNED TO OPERATING AS EXPECTED. *TR

THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES NOW AT 19,000 MILES IT KEEPS SAYING SERVICE SHIFTER THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED DUE TO THIS HAPPENING TO ALL JEEP CHEROKEES AT THE MILEAGE. AND OVER. *TR

SHIFTER SERVICE WARNING LIGHT HAS CAME ON AT 48,000 MILES AND GOES OFF WHEN I RESTART MY VEHICLE BUT HAS CAME BACK ON REPEATEDLY AFTERWARDS. IT ONLY HAPPENS AFTER I'M DRIVING FOR ABOUT 10 MINS AND WHEN I PUT MY JEEP IN PARK AND THE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND ALL OF THE SHIFTER LIGHTS TURN RED.

WHILE DRIVING, SERVICE SHIFTER WILL DISPLAY ON DASH AND ALL LIGHTS AT SHIFTER WILL LIGHT UP. TURNING VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON GETS RID OF THE MESSAGE FOR A WHILE, BUT IT COMES BACK ON AFTER A FEW MILES---MOST OF THE TIME. I GOOGLED THE ISSUE AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO A COUPLE DIFFERENT DEALERS AND GOT DIFFERENT DIAGNOSTICS. SOMETIMES IT COMES ON WHEN SHIFTING TO DRIVE AND SOMETIMES A MILE DOWN THE ROAD, AND SOMETIMES AFTER 300 MILES, BUT IT COMES ON A LOT AND IT IS WORRYING ME, ESPECIALLY SINCE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE ISSUE AND JEEP HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT YET. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR

I STARTED THE JEEP IN THE PARKING LOT AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER LIT UP AND A MESSAGE SAID SERVICE SHIFTER. *TR

A MESSAGE APPEARS STATING TO 'SERVICE SHIFTER SOON' AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER LIGHT UP. THE MESSAGE IS RESET AFTER A RESTART. IT COMES BACK AT RANDOM INTERVALS: WHEN FIRST STARTING, DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, ETC. IT HAS COME ABOUT 30 TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF 1 YEAR. *TR

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT HAS COME ON MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE 36,000. VEHICLE NOW HAS 75,000 AND STILL AN ISSUE. IT WILL GO MONTHS W/O COMING ON,OR IT WILL COME ON MULTIPLE TIMES I ONE DAY. HAPPENS IN COLD, HOT, WET AND DRY WEATHER. VERY RANDOM. SHUT VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART AND IT GOES AWAY, TEMPORARILY. *TR

CAR REVS UP LIKE IT SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL WHILE TRAVELING 65 MPH, LOSS OF POWER, NO ACCELERATION. I WAS ON HIGHWAY AND WAS ABLE TO MAKE THE SHOULDER SAFELY. SEVERAL ERROR MESSAGES POPPED UP ON THE SCREEN, PLACE INTO PARK AND RESTART, ETC.. DID NOT CATCH THEM ALL. PUT INTO PARK, SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED. REGAINED POWER BUT THE CAR STUTTERS AND SHAKES AT ABOUT 25 MPH, SEEMS LIKE IT IS MISSING OUT WHILE IDLING. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES THE PAST MONTH. AT FIRST TURNING THE CAR OFF AND RESTART WOULD RUN FINE FOR SEVERAL DAYS. UNTIL YESTERDAY, NOW IT IS STUTTERING WHILE DRIVING ON LOCAL STREETS. THE SERVICE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE IS ON. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMES WHILE DRIVING BUT DOES NOT STAY ON ONCE PUT INTO PARK. *TR

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON WHEN I STARTED MY VEHICLE. I UNDERSTAND IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE NEWER JEEP CHEROKEES. IT WAS SUGGESTED I FILE A FORMAL COMPLAINT SO WE CAN GET A RECALL. PRETTY MUCH EVERY CHEROKEE HAS THIS PROBLEM BEFORE 50000 MILES. *TR

AT 35000 MILES I GOT A DASH LIGHT SAYING SERVICE SHIFTER. IT HAPPENED AGAIN AT 37000 MILES. THIS TIME I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT DID NOT CLEAR THE MESSAGE. *TR

THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES NOW STARTING IN JAN 21, 2020. STOPPED AT STOP SIGN AND SHUT OFF. TRIED TO RESTART AND WOULD NOT. WAITED ABOUT 3 MINUTES AND IT STARTED. AS I SLOWED DOWN FOR ANOTHER STOP SIGN IT SHUT OFF BUT RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY. AS I SLOWED DOWN FOR ANOTHER STOP SIGN I TURNED RIGHT WITH OUT STOPPING AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. ALL THE IDIOT LIGHTS ON DASH CAME ON. BATTERY WAS FULLY FUNCTIONAL. CAR WOULD NOT START FOR 45 MINUTES AND THEN IT FINALLY STARTED.CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. THEIR ANSWER WAS 'IF WE CAN'T DUPLICATE IT THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO. IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN BRING IT IN'. WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSE TOO MEAN? IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON 5-13-20, 5-15-20 AND 5-31-20. ALL THESE TIMES IT WAS WHEN WE ARE DRIVING ALONG AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN. ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF. ON 5-31-20 I WAS IN A TRAFFIC LANE MAKING A RIGHT TURN WITH OTHER TRAFFIC BEHIND WHEN THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. THE DRIVER BEHIND ME WAS BEEPING HIS HORN FOR ME TO MOVE AS HE HAD NOT KNOWN MY ENGINE SHUT OFF. WOULD HATE TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN IF I WAS ON AN INTERSTATE. JUST HAD THE BATTERY REPLACE UNDER WARRANTY ON 5-28-20. ENGINE OIL GAUGE READ 54% NOT SURE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT SURE DOESN'T SOUND SAFE TO ME. CALLING THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW TO GET AN APPOINTMENT.

THE VEHICLE CONSUMES ALL OF THE OIL (BONE DRY) BEFORE THE VEHICLE REACHES 3000 MILES AND BEFORE THE NEXT SCHEDULED SERVICE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWO TIMES. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO SIGNS OF A LEAK. THE VEHICLE STALLS OUT AND TURNS OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD WITH NO WARNING (NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY OTHER WARNING). THIS TIME IT HAPPENED ON 05/26/2020 ON A HIGHWAY WITH A 60MPH SPEED LIMIT. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. THIS PROBLEM IS FOUND ALL THROUGH OUT INTERNET FORUMS FOR THE 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE AND JEEP HAS FAILED TO PUT OUT A RECALL. THE ISSUE IS KNOWN AND THEY ARE INTENTIONALLY PUTTING THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AT RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH. THE DEALERSHIPS ARE CALLING IT AN, "OVER CONSUMPTION OF OIL." *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY GOING 65 MILES AN HOUR AND ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY GEAR SHIFT TURNED RED AND THE CAR SEEMED TO HAVE STOPPED RUNNING. I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE RODE AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK. A FEW MINUTES LATER I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE AND ALL KINDS OF LIGHTS CAME UP ON MY PANEL AS WELL AS THE GEAR SHIFT. NOW I HAVE A CONSTANT MESSAGE TO SERVICE SHIFTER. I GOOGLED IT AND LOW AND BEHOLD THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, FROM 2015 - 2018. WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL? MY FAMILY WAS NOT SAFE ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR

MY 2017 JEEP LATITUDE HAS 43K. WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, 60 MPH, ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON NEXT TO THE SHIFTER AND "SERVICE SHIFTER" MESSAGE CAME ON. WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS? I HAVE BEEN READING THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN. WHEN I SHUT CAR OFF AND TURNED ON AGAIN, IT DID NOT COME BACK ON. BUT, FROM WHAT I READ, DEALERS ARE SAYING IT JUST NEEDS TO BE "RESET." IS THIS A SAFETY ISSUE? HELP. *TR

VEHICLE BOUGHT DEC/2019. 2 MONTHS LATER WHILE DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON, PULLED VEHICLE OVER AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES VEHICLE STARTED BACK UP NO LIGHT. MARCH 2020, DRIVING IN TOWN VEHICLE DECELERATED AND TOLD TO PUT VEHICLE IN PARK, ALL LIGHTS CAME ON AND SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARED AGAIN. VEHICLE STARTED AFTER A LITTLE BIT AND SINCE I WAS VERY CLOSE TO HOME I PARKED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY. CALLED A CERTIFIED DEALER TO DISCUSS ISSUE. REPLACED SHIFT BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS. DIDN'T SOLVE THE ISSUE. COULDN'T SIMULATE MY ISSUE AT THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSTIC. WAS TOLD IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN MAY NEED AN ENTIRE SHIFTER ($1000+). HOW IS SOMETHING SO SERIOUS, THAT CAN APPLY YOUR EMERGENCY BRAKE WHILE AT DRIVING SPEED, OR DECELERATE YOU WHEN IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION NOT BE RECALLED? HOW MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILED? THIS IS NOT RIGHT. *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS LOW OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES, WE HAVE THE OIL CHANGED REGULARLY AT THE DEALERSHIP AND DO NOT EXCEED THE RECOMMENDED MILEAGE BETWEEN CHANGES. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON MAIN ROADS DURING TIMES OF HIGH TRAFFIC AND HAS PUT MY FAMILY IN DANGER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THIS STARTED HAPPENING WITH LESS THAN 20,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND HAS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF FIVE TIMES NOW. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS 36,000 MILES ON IT AND I'M TIRED OF DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE.

MY DAUGHTER WHO IS 18 WAS GOING TO VISIT HER DAD. SHE CAME TO A STOP LIGHT AT A COMPLETE STOP WHEN AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. SHE WAS GOING TO PULL THE CAR TO THE SIDE TO CALL ME. WHEN SHE PRESS THE GAS THE CAR WENT IN REVERSE ALMOST HITTING THE CAR BEHIND HER. SHE WAS SO SCARED SHE LOOKED DOWN TO MAKE SURE THE CAR WAS STILL IN DRIVE AND IT WAS STILL IN DRIVE AND GOING IN REVERSE. SHE WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESET THE LIGHTS AND DRIVE THE JEEP. THIS IS CRAZY WITH ALL THESE COMPLAINTS AND NOBODY DO ANYTHING. JEEP SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE AND FIX THIS ISSUE. MY DAUGHTER COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT

SHIFTER SERVICE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING AT 25 MPH AND MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE CEASED WITH THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING MESSAGE ILLUMINATED. THE DRIVER PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. AFTER APPROXIMATELY AN HOUR, THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND THE DRIVER DROVE TO THE RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HOMER SKELTON CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 7661 US-51, MILLINGTON, TN 38053, (901) 872-0195, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT AN UNKNOWN COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE RESET. THE COMPUTER WAS RESET HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT WAS COMING ON. ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFT WERE LIT UP. AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE KEPT APPLYING ON ITS OWN. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF TIME. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT COST ME ALMOST $400 TO REPLACE THE BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS. THE SERVICE TECH AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID WE WERE LUCKY THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE DIDN'T APPLY WHILE GOING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. *TR

MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE HAS BEEN RANDOMLY THROWING A SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING ON MY DIGITAL DASH (THE MIDDLE OF THE CLUSTER) SINCE 2018 I TOOK IT TO WAXAHACHIE AUTOPLEX THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM AND THEY TOLD ME THERE ARE NO RECALLS. I WAS INFORMED THEY COULD REPLACE THE SHIFTER AT MY COST AND THAT IF I BRING IT BACK I WILL NEED TO PAY TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. THIS LIGHT STILL COMES ON WHEN THE CAR IS IN DRIVE BUT IT IS RANDOM SOME TIMES AT A STOP LIGHT, DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN PUT IN DRIVE. I FIGURED IF I WAIT A FEW MONTHS THERE WOULD BE A RECALL OR A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE BUT OVER TWO YEARS LATER THERE IS STILL NO FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE LOOKED ON GOOGLE AND FOUND MULTIPLE CHAT GROUPS OF PEOPLE THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW SOMETHING THIS MAJOR CAN JUST BE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG LIKE THIS! PLEASE HELP JEEP GET IT TOGETHER AND FIX THIS PROBLEM! NOTE THIS HAS NOT AFFECTED THE DRIVE-ABILITY OF THE CAR YET ITS JUST NERVE RACKING. *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A SIDE ROAD, GOING ABOUT 20MPH WHEN IT WAS LIKE MY JEEP SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. IT COMPLETELY STALLED. THE BATTERY LIGHT FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD AND A MESSAGE POPPED UP THAT SAID VEHICLE MUST BE IN GEAR, ALTERNATING WITH A SHIFT TO PARK OR NEUTRAL, PRESS BRAKE TO SELECT GEAR MESSAGE. I WAS ABLE TO SWING IT INTO A PARKING LOT WHERE I PUT IT IN PARK BUT THE ERROR WOULDN'T GO AWAY AND WHEN I SHIFTED BACK INTO DRIVE AND HIT THE GAS PEDAL, IT WOULDN'T MOVE. I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND WHEN I TRIED TO RESTART IT, IT WOULDN'T START. I SAT THERE FOR 15 MINUTES BEFORE IT WOULD START BACK UP. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS AND DRIVE THE APPROX 2 MILES HOME. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF AND ALL WARNING LIGHTS WERE DISPLAYED. LUCKILY I WAS NOT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC OR ON HIGHWAY. HAD TO WAIT ABOUT 30-45 SECONDS BEFORE IT WOULD RESTART. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH ( APRIL). IS THERE A RECALL FOR THIS. I'VE LOOKED INTO THIS PROBLEM AND THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE. *TR

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY WHEN I AM DRIVING- THIS LIGHTS UP ALL SHIFTER GEARS. DEALERSHIP SAID THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH JEEP CHEROKEE'S AND THE ISSUE IS THE SHIFTER BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS. *TR

ENGINE KEEPS SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING ON STREET OR HIGHWAY. 5 TIMES SINCE 9/19. DEALER REPLACED ENGINE AND PROBLEM CONTINUES

INTERMITTENTLY, UPON STARTING THE JEEP WILL DISPLAY AND "SERVICE SHIFTER" WARNING ON MY DASH WITH ALL GEARS INDICATORS (PRNDL) ILLUMINATED IN RED. I AM ABLE TO MOVE THE SHIFTER AND CAN EVEN OPERATE THE VEHICLE BUT, IT FEELS UNSAFE. I HAVE HAD MIXED SUCCESS WITH TURNING THE JEEP OFF AND RESTARTING BUT, MOST OF THE TIME, IT SUCCEEDS IN ELIMINATING THE WARNING AND THE RED LIGHTS. I HAVE SEEN THIS ISSUE POSTED ON VARIOUS WEBSITES AS AN ISSUE FOR A NUMBER OF JEEP MODELS. GUIDANCE OR, A RECALL MAY BE IN ORDER. I WOULD APPRECIATE EITHER.

WHILE DRIVING CAR HAD NO HEAT INTERMITTENT SINCE 2018 FOR UP TO 3 TIMES. NOW IS APRIL 2020!! WINDOWS FOG UP CAUSING HAZARDOUS CONDITION WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY! HAD CAR CHECKED AT DEALERSHIP AND THEY CLAIM IT IS FUNCTIONING FINE FOR LAST 2 SERVICES UNDER WARRANTY HOWEVER NOW WE ARE 4000 MILES OUT OF WARRANTY AND DEALERSHIP IN NAPERVILLE ILLINOIS WONT FIX IT FOR FREE EVEN THOUGH ITS AN ON GOING ISSUE!!!

SERVICE SHIFTER APPEARED WHILE DRIVING WITHIN CITY AND ILLUMINATED GEAR SHIFT COLUMN IN RED. PULLED OVER TO PARK AND TURNED OFF VEHICLE. RESTARTED AND SERVICE SHIFTER DID NOT REMAIN.

WAS DRIVING AND IN MOTION WHEN I HEARD A DING AND THE "SERVICE SHIFTER" ALERT CAME ON, AND ALL OF THE GEARS HAD THE RED LIGHT ON. I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 9 MONTHS AND HAVE NEVER HAD AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE BEFORE. IT IS NOT DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE OR ANY OTHER MAINTENANCE SERVICE. IT IS AT 47,000 MILES AND WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THIS HAPPENS VERY FREQUENTLY BUT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE SHIFTER AND SHIFTER HARNESS. I AM VERY UPSET AND DISAPPOINTED WITH JEEP THAT THIS IS A LIFE-THREATENING ISSUE, AND IT HAPPENS "FREQUENTLY." PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AS THIS IS NOT FAIR TO OWNERS WHO ARE NOW AT RISK WHEN TRAVELING.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT IS COMING ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ALL THE LIGHTS NEAR THE SHIFTER ARE LIT UP. ALSO THE VEHICLE JUMPS INTO GEAR.

WHEN I START MY CAR, SERVICE SHIFTER COMES ON AND ALL MY LIGHTS ON THE PANEL. I HAVE TO TURN MY CAR OFF, OPEN MY DOOR TO RESET. IT TAKES A FEW TRIES FOR THE CAR TO RESET. ALSO, MY CAR BUMPS FORWARD WHILE DRIVING. HAPPENS FREQUENTLY. I HAVE TAKEN THIS IN SEVERAL TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP BY THIS NEVER FIXES THE ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN DECEMBER OF 2016. ANOTHER ISSUE IS THAT MY CAR JUST DIES WHILE I AM DRIVING. BATTERY IS FINE. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AND PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL DOWN, THE CAR WILL START AGAIN AFTER RESTING FOR 10MINUTES. DEALERSHIP ALWAYS SAYS ITS THE OIL, BUT I HAVE 2 MONTHS STILL TO GO FOR OIL CHANGE AND OVER 2,000 MILES TIL MY NEXT CHANGE. OIL LIFE IS OVER 50%. EVERYTIME I TAKE IT IN FOR THIS IT WORKS FOR A FEW MONTHS AND THEN THE ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN.

WHEN DRIVING TO WORK THIS MORNING "SERVICE SHIFTER" APPEARED ON MY DASHBOARD AND ALL THE LIGHTS TO THE LEFT OF THE SHIFTER WERE RED.
