Summary

Start/Stop System - As I was pulling out of a parking lot I stopped and then needed to get a quick insert into traffic. As I started to accelerate the system shutdown and sputtered before starting again, needless to say I was almost rammed by traffic. This happened two times on the same day I was almost hit because of the Off/sputter/restart sequence.

Summary

My Jeep Cherokee with only 43,000 started to randomly give me error messages that says "service shifter". This has happened multiple times when I am driving and all my lights on the shifter light up red and I am unable to determine what gear I am in. I have to stop driving turn my engine off and back on to get this to correct itself. In addition, one day I was driving and all of my headlights flickered and all of my dashboard lights went out for 5 seconds then came back on. My battery has died twice now recently and there was nothing left on. Due to these issues and the fact that I do not have a check engine light on, I called Jeep to see if there have been any recalls or other complaints, I was informed that there have not been. I have been doing some research online to find multiple forums where people with 2018 are having the exact same issue. This is posing a safety risk and I would like to see what steps can be taken since I am not the only one.

Summary

This vehicle is a 2018 jeep with 37700 miles on it. When driving the recently it would stall in traffic. Then it was difficult to restart for a few minutes then it would start again. But yesterday it stalled in city traffic and wouldnt restart. No error message on the dashboard. So i had to have it towed to the dealer. The dealers early assessment is that their significant oil loss in the engine. The engine appears to be damaged now. From the recent oil leak. Dealer stated its not from owner neglect or abuse of the vehicle. The engine shouldnt fail for a 3 year old car with 37,000 miles on it and no neglect. Its a manufacturers issue. This vehicle is my daughters college transportation. Thank God she wasnt rear ended when the car stalled and wouldnt restart.

Summary

The other day yet again, a “service shifter” error showed up on my jeeps dashboard shortly after I started to the vehicle. The error showed on the dash and all of the lights on my shifter turned solid red. This is a big safety issue and seems as if there could be some electrical or power train components malfunctioning internally in my Jeep. After turning the car of and then on again, the error did not come back on. This happens repeatedly every few months or so and is very concerning. I took it to my hero dealer and they stated they could find any faulty codes when running diagnostics and they was nothing they can do. This issue needs to be addressed with Jeep and a recalled needs to be issued immediately before this leads to serious malfunctioning while operating.

All of the lights came on on the shifter while driving and the dash warning stated there was a shifter problem. The check engine light was also illuminated. This issue put my child's safety at risk as she had to pull over on the side of the interstate not knowing if the car would continue to operate in drive. The car had previous problems that resulted in a sudden engine stall making her fear it was too risky to continue to drive. This problem is not rare, and Jeep should be required to fix it.

I HAVE ONLY HAD MY CAR 3 YEARS AND MY CAR IS ASKING FOR A SHIFTER SERVICE. THE 4 LIGHTS TURN ON. MY CAR SHUTS OFF WHEN I DRIVE AND MESSAGE SAID IT WENT FROM DRIVE TO PARK AND SHUTS OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT JUST SHUTS OFF WHEN I AM DRIVING. IT CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE LET THE DEALER SHIP KNOW OF THE ISSUE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEFECT. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THIS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT AND I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH A SHIFTER AND ITS ONLY BEEN 3 YEARS THAT I HAD MY CAR. I ONLY HAVE 60,088 MILES. THIS STARTED ABOUT A MONTH AGO.

The parking brake pops on when I'm driving done the road!!! Often times when I start my car and put my car in Reverse or Drive and remove my foot from the brake the parking brake pops on and I start sliding down the road until my car stops!!! The major issue is when I was driving down a HWY at 37MPH no on coming traffic or no traffic behind me thankfully my parking brake engages and I fly into the steering wheel with a seat belt on and thankfully my 5 year old was fully bucked into his car seat and left unharmed!!! Although what if my Jeep does this with other vehicles around??? It's a super big safety and hazard!!! I won't ever purchase another Jeep!!

Sunroof was closed at the time of the incident fortunately, if it had been open passengers in the vehicle were likely to be harmed by this failure. It was a sunny afternoon around 70 degrees outside. Vehicle has 45k miles on it and is in good condition otherwise. Vehicle has been returned to the dealer for repair. I will be contacting Chrysler regarding the incident.

Twice so far on this particular Jeep, all of the lights on the shifter light up and on the display above the steering wheel it displays the message “Service Shifter”. The issue will go away once the Jeep is shut off and turned back on. I have researched this online and a ton of people are having the same exact issue with low mileage. This needs resolved ASAP. I would hate to see what happens if we’re driving or to get left stranded somewhere.

In two instances, I have been driving my car and the car dies. Both times there was no oil. I take my car for regular servicing and oil changes and have also taken it to the dealership as I felt it was burning oil too rapidly. They determined there was no issue but I am having to put 3+ quarts every 3000-5000 miles even with oil changes. But when the oil is low there is no indication and the car will die WHILE DRIVING.

Summary

After backing out of a parking spot, I received a "service shifter" warning on my instrument panel and all the indicator lights on my shifter illuminated. After turning the car off and back on, the warning went away but reappeared mid-drive a day later. Concerned that my car may not be fully in gear, or that it might slip out of gear, I made an appointment with my dealership. After inspection, they confirmed that there was an intermittent short in the shifter and it would need to be replaced. Through my own independent research, I found countless reports of the same issue in this vehicle, which the dealership confirmed to me that it is a common problem they are aware of. If this is a common problem, and consumers are forced to spend thousands to repair the issue on relatively low mileage vehicles, it seems to me that a recall may be in order.

Summary

Vehicle was purchased brand new 04/06/2018. Within the first month (after putting on 500 miles), the battery had to be replaced. On 06/17/2021, the alternator, battery and sensor had to be replaced at a total cost of $1234. Now, the "SERVICE SHIFTER" light is appearing on my console and it cost me $160 just to run diagnostics at the dealership where I purchased the vehicle and I am told that the gear shift module and wiring harness will have to be replaced at a cost of an additional $460. The vehicle has not yet reached 35,000 miles. After doing an on-line search, it seems this is a very common problem with the JEEP Cherokee models from 2014 - 2018.

Summary

The "Service Shifter" message appeared in the display on 27 July 2021. I contacted the dealership to schedule an appointment. My appointment was 2 August 2021. My factory warranty expired in July 2021. The service advisor stated that the repairs would not be covered under the factory warranty if it was still active. The wire harness and the bevel had to be replaced. I contacted Chrysler via email to inquire as to why this repair is not covered by the manufacturer. They replied "Thank you for contacting Jeep Customer Care. I am sorry to learn that you had concerns with your Shifter and I do understand your frustration. Unfortunately, this is not an Open Recall on your vehicle at this time. If it does become an Open Recall in the future, you are able to submit for reimbursement review. At this time due to the Warranty expiring, and it not being an Open Recall we are unable to assist you with the costs. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any further assistance by calling us at 877-426-5337." There has been numerous complaints about this issue and the manufacturer has done nothing to resolve this problem. Like most Jeep owners with the same issue, we have to pay for the repairs which is about $600.00. This is a safety issue that should not be ignored. The vehicle could shift into park while driving which, according the other Jeep owners, has happened or the engine will shut off. I think the manufacturer should notify all Jeep owners of this problem and issue a Recall or Technical Bulletin to address this issue.

I rolled out of traffics way onto the shoulder and placed my car in park and tried to restart it. Car would not restart initially. After 3 tries the vehicle restarted and I was able to make it back onto the road. - the engine shut off and the power steering went out. these are available for inspection upon request. -The vehicle stalled in the middle of traffic so not only my safety but the safety of other drivers was at risk as my vehicle was turning a corner and not able to accelerate as other drivers came up behind me causing them to swerve. -the problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center however my wife and I have experience the same issue at two different times. -The vehicle has been inspected by the dealership where the vehicle was purchased brand new and they were not able to provide an answer to the problem. -There were no warning lamps or other symptoms prior to the failure.

I was getting a service shifter light and called the dealer and the said it was a recall it needed a system reboot to bring it in. I did. But that did not fix the problem the light is still on and after doing research it really is the wiring for the shifter. Which can cause the vehicle to not signal what gear it is in. My car had failed to to indicate which gear it has been in multiply times.

Vehicle has approximately 40,000 miles and the "service shifter" light has come on about 6 times. Each time, if the vehicle is turned off & restarted, the light doesn't come back on for a few weeks. It has never come on while driving. This condition has not been replicated by a dealer or mechanic. The vehicle seems to drive fine.

Summary

Everytime we drive our vehicle for longer than 10 minutes a warning indicator light comes on which says "service shifter". All the lights on the shifter come on and you can no longer tell when you are in drive, park, etc. When you turn the vehicle off the system resets, but it will come back on again. The dealership inspected it and found no fix for the issue. To me, this seems highly irresponsible and reckless to allow something like this to occur in a vehicle. Numerous people with Jeep Cherokees have experienced the same thing and I believe there needs to be a recal related to the shifting/electrical system.

Summary

VEHICLE IS STALLING DUE TO EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION.....NO OIL INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON. BUT VEHICLE EVEN WHEN OIL INDICATOR GAGE SAYS THERE IS OIL....THE OIL IS LOW AND CAUSES STALLING. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE FOR EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. STALLS WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY IN TRAFFIC. BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL AND TO CHANGE OIL EVERY 3000. THUIS DOES NOT FIX THE UNDERLYING ISSUE. READING ONLINE THERE SEEMS TO BE A CLASS ACTION SUIT AND DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT HELPFUL WITH THIS ISSUE. NERVOUS TO DRIVE LONG DISTANCE ESPECIALLY WHEN NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATE TO LET YOU KNOW YOU ARE LOW ON OIL.

Summary

MY 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE HAS LESS THAN 18,000 MILES ON IT AND OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST FEW MONTHS, THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARED ON MY DASHBOARD AND THE TREE LIGHTS WERE ALL LIT UP. I PARKED THE CAR, TURNED IT OFF AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND TURNED IT BACK ON. LIGHTS AND MESSAGE WAS GONE. THIS HAPPENED ONCE AFTER THAT - ABOUT 2 MONTHS LATER - AND SAME THING, I WAS ABLE TO RESET IT BY TURNING IT OFF AND ON. TODAY THE MESSAGE APPEARED ON MY DASHBOARD AND WOULD NOT GO AWAY. I DROVE STRAIGHT HOME (ABOUT 3 MILES), PULLED IN TO MY DRIVEWAY AND IT WOULD NOT GO IN TO PARK OR NEUTRAL - IT STAYED IN DRIVE. I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF BUT NOT EXTRACT THE KEY NOR COULD I START THE CAR AGAIN. I WAS DRIVING EVERY TIME THE WARNING LIGHT AND TREE LIGHTS CAME ON. TODAY THE ONLY WAY I COULD GET MY KEY OUT WAS TO USE THE MANUAL SHIFTER AND TRY TO REMEMBER THE SHIFTING PATTERN! I EVENTUALLY FIGURED IT OUT AND WAS ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY. THE DEALER CAN'T TELL ME IF MY EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERS IT BUT WANTS ME TO DRIVE IT OVER TO THEM ABOUT 15 MILES AWAY. I AM READING THAT COST IS ANYWHERE BETWEEN $400-$1,000 AND DAYS WITHOUT A VEHICLE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF POSTS CITING THE SAME ISSUE ON CARGURU'S WEBSITE. THIS REALLY NEEDS INVESTIGATED FOR A RECALL. THERE IS NO WAY THIS IS SAFE!! THIS IS MY ONE AND ONLY DAILY DRIVER AND I CANNOT BE WITHOUT A VEHICLE! CHECK OUT THE COMPLAINTS HERE: HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T68742_DS990296

MY VEHICLE TOLD ME TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND THEN PARK WHILE I WAS AT A RED LIGHT. I DID THAT AND MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. I LEFT IT IN PARK AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF BUT IT WOULD NOT RESTART. I SAT AT THE LIGHT WITH MY HAZARDS ON FOR ABOUT 2 MIN, I TRIED TO TURN IT ON AGAIN AND IT STRUGGLED BUT IT ENDED UP TURNING ON. 3 DAYS LATER AT THE SAME LIGHT ON MY WAY TO WORK THE BATTERY LIGHT STARTED FLASHING AND BEEPING, MY ENGINE LIGHT TURNED, AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT TURNED ON. IT WOULDN'T LET ME DRIVE BUT 5 MPH. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. LATER THAT DAY WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP NONE OF THOSE LIGHTS WERE ON AND I WAS TOLD "THERE'S NOTHING WRONG" WITH MY JEEP. I'M SO FRUSTRATED BECAUSE CLEARLY THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG.

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING ON DASH. I'VE ALREADY HAD THIS SUPPOSEDLY REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ONCE AND THE LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING BACK ON AGAIN. EVIDENTLY, THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM FROM WHAT I'M SEEING AND IT WOULD BE NICE IF JEEP OWNERS DIDN'T HAVE TO CONTINUE TO SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE MANUFACTURER'S SHORT COMINGS. THIS IS GETTING RIDICULOUS. JUST HAD TO HAVE MY OIL RECALL ADDRESSED BECAUSE THEY CLEARLY CAN'T BUILD CARS PROPERLY.

Summary

SINCE WE BOUGHT IT NEW, IT HAS STALLED WHEN TURNING (USUALLY LEFT) WHEN THE OIL LEVEL GETS LOW. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PUT OIL IN IT FREQUENTLY AND THAT THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF IS A SAFETY MECHANISM. THE PROBLEM IS, THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS LOW. SO UNLESS I KEEP TRACK OF HOW MANY MILES I HAVE DRIVEN, THE JEEP WILL JUST QUIT ON ME. I HAVE DEALT WITH THE ISSUE UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN I CAME WITHIN INCHES OF GETTING SLAMMED ON MY PASSENGER DOOR BECAUSE I STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IF A LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON, I WOULD OBVIOUSLY HAVE MORE OIL PUT IN, BUT I GET NO WARNING AT ALL. IT JUST QUITS. USUALLY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE ENCLOSED PICTURES ARE OF WHEN I HAD TO PUT OIL IN IT IN NOVEMBER. THE LAST EPISODE OF ALMOST GETTING HIT HAPPENED ON JAN 16.

I CALL THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN, SO I TOOK IT AND WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OFF, THE MESSAGE NO LONGER APPEARED. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND IT SAID IT CAME BACK FINE. UPON GETTING MY CAR BACK, IT WAS RANDOMLY SHOWING THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE AGAIN SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TWO MORE TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND THEY STATED THAT THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND SO NOTHING WAS FIXED. I HAVE NOW OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 3 YEARS AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX THE STILL APPEARING ISSUE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARS BUT I FEAR THAT WHATEVER IS CAUSING THE WARNING TO APPEAR MAY CAUSE ISSUES. I HAVE READ THAT MANY MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND THE DEALERSHIP WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING. ALL THREE TIMES I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN, IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING.

Summary

IN MARCH, DRIVING DOWN RED ROAD - CAR SUDDENLY STALLED AND THEN SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. AS IT WAS SHUTTING DOWN, I WAS ABLE TO MOVE IT TO THE RIGHT LANE AS TO AVOID THE TRAFFIC. CALLED TOW TRUCK AND WHEN THEY CAME, WENT TO JUMP THE CAR AND THERE WAS NO NEED - CAR STARTED. WENT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT'S AN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR THAT I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THE OIL IS LOW. PANDEMIC CAME SO DIDN'T DRIVE MUCH - LAST THURSDAY, 7/18, I GOT IN THE CAR AND IT DIDN'T START AGAIN - I WAITED A WHILE AND IT HESITATED STARTING. FINALLY STARTED AND WENT TO DO GROCERIES. LEAVING THE STORE, THE SAME THING HAPPENED, THE CAR DID NOT START AT ALL, CONTINUED TO TRY AND IT FINALLY STARTED. TOOK CAR TO THE DEALER 7/17/20 - STILL 1,000 MILES TO GO BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE AND AGAIN, THEY SAID I HAVE TO DO THE OIL CHANGE NOW EVERY 2500 MILES. THE CAR HAS SYNTHETIC OIL - I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO CHANGE EVERY 2500 MILES AS THE OIL IS ALSO MORE EXPENSIVE. TODAY 7/18, CAR DID NOT START AGAIN, SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS IT STARTED AND NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. READ ONLINE CAR HAS ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN AND STALLING AND THERE IS A CLASS ACTION SUIT. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AS IT MAY STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN. HEADING TO THE DEALER AGAIN TOMORROW MORNING BECAUSE NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND CONTINUE TO HAVE THE ISSUE OF THE CAR NOT STARTING, SHUTTING DOWN AND STALLING.

FAST FORWARD TO MARCH OF 2020, RIGHT UNDER A YEAR OF OWNERSHIP AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER PROBLEM HAS BECOME NEAR CONSTANT. I WILL HEAR A 'DING' IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING, SOMETIMES AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE FREEWAY, THE GEAR SHIFTER WILL TURN ALL RED AGAIN AND THE MESSAGE APPEARS ON SCREEN. WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING YOU CANNOT GET ANYTHING ELSE TO COME ON THE SCREEN....FUEL ECONOMY OR SPEED, WHICH I USE REGULARLY IN MY VEHICLE. ---I CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THERE ARE NO ACTIVE RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE AND THAT I AM OUT OF BASIC WARRANTY AND THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY WOULD ONLY COVER ENGINE/TRANSMISSION, THUS NOT HELPING ME IN THIS SITUATION. AFTER HEARING THAT FROM THEM I DECIDED TO LOOK UP THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND IMAGINE MY SURPRISE TO SEE I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS ISSUE. I CAME ACROSS NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS.

I HAD ENGINE CODES BEING THROWN NONE HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH OIL. NO OIL LIGHT ON. NOTHING. I DEDUCED MYSELF ONLINE THAT I NEEDED TO CHECK MY OIL LEVEL, THOUGH I WAS STILL ONE WEEK OUT FROM NEEDING AN OIL CHANGE PER THE VEHICLE SPECS (THE OIL CHANGE NOTIFICATION FROM THE VEHICLE ALSO HAD NOT COME ON YET). SURE ENOUGH, DIPSTICK WAS BONE DRY. I HAD IT RECTIFIED. I HAD IT VERIFIED THAT I HAVE NO OIL LEAK. AND EVERY TIME I AM ALMOST DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE MY VEHICLE STALLS. ANY AND EVERY WHERE. AND THEN I GO GET AN OIL CHANGE WITH MORE OIL. ALL OVER MESSAGE BOARDS, THIS HAPPENS TO PEOPLE. 2017'S HAD A RECALL FOR THIS. 2019'S HAD A RECALL FOR THIS. WHY IN GOD'S NAME HAS 2018 NOT BEEN RECALLED OVER THIS. IT'S UNACCEPTABLE. IT'S DANGEROUS. I WAS ALMOST HIT HEAD ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY 3K MILES FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS.

EVERY TIME IT HAPPENS WE DO NOT CONTINUE TO DRIVE WHEN IT POPS UP. WE INSTANTLY PULL OVER AND TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON. ITS ALWAYS WENT AWAY ONCE WE TURN IT BACK ON BUT IT'S DOES CONTINUE TO HAPPEN. IT'S NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES OTHER THAN THIS. WE HAVE READ THAT OTHER CARS HAVE BEEN AFFECTED AND THAT ANOTHER JEEP CHEROKEE WHEELS LOCKED UP AND THEY GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. WE HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY SEEM TO HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT THIS. WE ARE CONCERNED FOR OUR VEHICLE, OUR SAFETY, AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS.

Summary

WHEN I PUT MY JEEP CHEROKEE IN REVERSE, MY SCREEN STARTED GLITCHING AND THEN 'SERVICE SHIFTER' CAME ON MY SCREEN. WHEN I LOOKED DOWN AT MY SHIFTER, ALL THE LIGHTS WERE LIT UP, SO I PUT IT IN PARK AND CUT THE ENGINE OFF. WHEN I STARTED IT IT WAS GONE. THE NEXT DAY, THIS CAME ON AGAIN - AS I STARTED THE CAR SO I AGAIN, SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED IT. AFTER GETTING 2 MILES DOWN THE ROAD, THE SERVICE SHIFTER CAME BACK ON AND NOT EVEN 15 SECONDS LATER, MY CAR ABRUPTLY PUT ITSELF IN PARK, MY LIGHTS WENT HAYWIRE, MY STEERING WHEEL WENT STIFF AS IF THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING AVAILABLE, ALL AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP SINCE I'VE READ ABOUT PEOPLE WRECKING AFTER THIS LIGHT CAME ON. I CHECKED MY VIN FOR A RECALL, BUT COULDN'T FIND ONE AND I AM NOT ABOUT TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR AN UNSAFE HUNK OF METAL. I'M STILL UNDER WARRANTY AT 32,800 MILES ON MY 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE, BUT I FULLY INTEND ON LETTING EVERY PERSON I KNOW THAT HAS AN FCA PRODUCT TO STAY AWAY FROM THEM IF THIS DOES NOT BECOME A RECALL. THE PICTURES BELOW ARE OF THE FIRST TIME WHEN I WAS BACKING UP IN MY PARENTS DRIVEWAY. I DIDN'T GET PICTURES OF THE SECOND TIME DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD BECAUSE MY FOCUS WAS ON GETTING HOME SAFELY TRYING TO NOT GO OVER 25-30 MPH.

Summary

WITHIN THE FIRST 3-5 MINUTES OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE AFTER STARTING IT, AN ERROR MESSAGE WILL APPEAR THAT SAYS TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND SELECT A GEAR. THIS MESSAGE USUALLY APPEARS WHEN I BEGIN SLOWING DOWN TOWARDS A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN AND PREVENTS ME FROM ACCELERATING AND I ALSO LOSE MY POWER BRAKES. ONCE MY VEHICLE IS STOPPED. I'LL SWITCH INTO PARK LIKE THE VEHICLE SAYS BUT WHEN I SWITCH BACK TO DRIVE I HAVE NO POWER. I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND ATTEMPT TO RESTART TO GET POWER AGAIN. MULTIPLE TIMES THIS ERROR HAS CAUSED THE CAR TO STALL AND CUT OFF WHILE STILL IN MOTION. ONCE THE CAR IS OFF, I HAVE TO USUALLY WAIT 2-3 MINUTES TO RESTART IT AN IT CAN TAKE MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THIS ERROR IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS IT CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING AND LEAVES THE DRIVER STRANDED WITH THE VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OFTEN IN AN INTERSECTION.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON ALL THE TIME. IT LIGHTS UP ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY SHIFTER AND FREEZES MY DASHBOARD SCREEN TO JUST SHOW THE MESSAGE SERVICE SHIFTER.

Summary

I HAVE A 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE WITH UNDER 30,000 MILES ON IT. MY CAR'S STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WHILE TAKING A RIGHT TURN. MY BRAKES AND STEERING WERE LOCKED, CAUSING ME TO DRIFT UP ON TO A CURB AND HIT A SIGN. NO WARNING OR INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE CAR PRIOR TO THIS. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT I AM LEASING THE CAR FROM. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS COMMON WITH JEEPS, THAT THE CAR WILL BURN THROUGH OIL VERY QUICKLY, THAT NO LOW OIL INDICATOR LIGHT WILL COME ON, AND THAT THE ENGINE WILL SHUT DOWN AS A 'SAFETY FEATURE.' I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO TO PROTECT MYSELF BEYOND GETTING OIL CHANGES EVERY 3K MILES AND THAT IT 'SHOULD' BE FINE. AGAIN, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING THAT THE CAR WILL SHUT DOWN OR THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE PRIOR TO IT TURNING OFF WHILE IN MOTION. THE CAR SHUTTING OFF WHILE IN MOTION WAS REFERRED TO AS A SAFETY FEATURE BY THE DEALERSHIP WHO WOULD ONLY OFFER ME AN OIL CHANGE AS A FIX.

THE CAR STOPPED WORKING WHILE IN MOTION IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WHILE TURNING TOWARDS MY APARTMENT COMPLEX. I HAD MY DAUGHTER INSIDE THE CAR WITH ME AND I WAS AFRAID CARS WILL COME SINCE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WERE CARS PASS BY TO ENTER THE APARTMENT COMPLEX. I WAS ABLE TO PUSH THE CAR AFTER CALLING MY DAD WHO HELPED ME TAKE IT TO A SAFE SPOT AND JUMP START THE CAR. THE CAR WORKED AFTER DOING A JUMP START AND I WAS ABLE TO PARK IT AT MY PARKING SPOT. THE NEXT DAY I WAS LEAVING TO DROP OFF MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL AND SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. I WAS INSIDE THE CAR COMING OUT (IN MOTION) AND THE CAR STOPPED SUDDENLY AND WOULDN'T TURN. I CALLED ROAD ASSISTANCE THIS TIME. THEY SENT ME A TOWING COMPANY TO TAKE IT TO THE CLOSEST JEEP DEALERSHIP. SINCE THE CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN ON AT ALL, THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO TAKE IT. THEY SAID THE CAR NEED IT A FLAT BED TOW TRUCK SINCE IT DIDN'T START AT ALL. THEY WERE ABLE TO TOW THE CAR 3 DAYS LATER ON SATURDAY 12/07/19 BY A TOWING COMPANY THAT HAD A FLAT BED TOW TRUCK AND TOOK IT TO THE CLOSEST JEEP DEALERSHIP. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY AT ORLANDO DODGE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE WIN MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, THE BATTERY NEEDS TO BE RECHARGE AND GET NEW KEYS. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW WITH 0 MILEAGES FROM JEEP DEALERSHIP ONLY 1 YEAR AND 6 MONTHS OLD. I DECIDED TO BUY A NEW CAR IN ORDER TO AVOID RISKS LIKE THESE ONE OF BEING LEFT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET/ROAD WITH MY DAUGHTER INSIDE THE CAR. THANKFULLY THIS DID NOT HAPPEN IN THE MIDDLE OF ROUTE I-4 WERE I NORMALLY DRIVE.

Summary

MY 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE HAS BEEN STALLING DUE TO HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION (PER THE DEALER). THE STALLS HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING WHEN BRAKING OR MAKING TURNS. THERE IS NO WARNING, THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF, WITH LOSS OF POWER STEERING. WHEN THIS OCCURS, NEED TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND WAIT A COUPLE MINUTES. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS IT HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN CITY DRIVING. IN TWO SCENARIOS, I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED AND IN ANOTHER, I STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION. I'VE TAKEN THE JEEP TO MY DEALERSHIP WHO TELLS ME THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY SUGGESTED I DO AN "OIL CONSUMPTION TEST" TO SEE IF THE ENGINE IS PERFORMING AS DESIGNED, WHICH ENTAILS ME BRINGING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP EVERY 1,000 MILES TO CHECK OIL LEVELS (EXTREMELY INCONVENIENT). I'VE ALSO OPENED A CASE WITH CHRYSLER/FIAT WHO SAYS I NEED TO COMPLETE THE CONSUMPTION TEST BEFORE THEY CAN MAKE ANY DETERMINATION. I'VE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF JEEP OWNERS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. CHRYSLER/FIAT NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE AS IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION NEEDED.

WE NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY AND THEY RECOMMENDED CHANGING OUT BATTERY. WE DROVE ABOUT 15 MILES TO AN AUTO PARTS STORE AND BOUGHT THE BEST BATTERY THEY HAD FOR THAT VEHICLE. WE DID NOT USE THE JEEP FOR THE NEXT DAY (FRIDAY). SATURDAY 10/19 WE DROVE IT DOWN TO DENVER (ABOUT 60 MILES) WITH NO PROBLEM. ON THE WAY HOME, AGAIN THE STOP /START WARNING LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT WENT ON GOING APPROX. 60 MPH. WE DROVE TO A PARKING LOT AND MADE A TURN INTO A PARKING SPOT. AT THAT POINT POWER STEERING WAS OPERABLE. I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN IN REVERSE AND THEN NOTICED NO POWER STEERING, I PLACED THE CAR IN DRIVE AND AGAIN NO POWER STEERING.

Summary

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN MY 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE SUDDENLY STALLED WITHOUT WARNING SHUTTING ALL SYSTEMS DOWN. I WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF MY LANE WITH KNOW MEANS OF MOVING MY VEHICLE TO A SAFE AREA. I CALLED TRIPLE A AND WAITED 1.5 HOURS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD FOR A WRECKER. APPARENTLY MY VEHICLE WAS LOW ON OIL SO IT SHUTDOWN. HOWEVER I WAS NOT DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND MY OIL LIFE WAS AT 13%. MY VEHICLE WARNING LIGHTS DID NOT ALERT ME THAT I WAS LOW ON OIL. I MADE A COMPLAINT TO MY SERVICE PERSON AT CHARLIE'S IN AUGUSTA MAINE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AT 8000 MILES AND IT WAS 2 QUARTS LOW. THEY TOLD ME IT'S COMMON FOR A VEHICLE TO USE THAT MUCH OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. THEY DID AN OIL CCONSUMPTION TEST AND SAID IT WAS NORMAL. JEEP SAYS YOU CAN USE A QUART EVERY 800 MILES. THAT IS 7.5 QUARTS BETWEEN OIL CHANGES IN A NEW VEHICLE. UNACCEPTABLE AND NOT SAFE FOR A VEHICLE TO SHUTDOWN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITHOUT ANY WARNING. CONSUMER STATED THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT HAS STALLED DUE TO LOW OIL PRESSURE. HOWEVER A FEW OIL CHANGES AGO CHARLIES DID AN OIL CHANGE AND TOLD ME MY OIL LEVELS WERE LOW. I THOUGHT THIS UNUSUAL AND THEY DID AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WITH NO FINDINGS. AT THIS TIME THEY DID NOT TELL ME THERE WAS AN OIL CONSUMPTION SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS VEHICLE. *JB

I HAVE A 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE. PURCHASED APRIL 2018 WITH 17 MILES ON IT. IN NOVEMBER 2018 THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS "FIXED." JUNE 26, 2019 (28,670 MILES ON MY CAR) I WAS DRIVING TO WORK GOING 35 MPH WHEN MY ENGINE SHUT OFF AND I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. ABOUT A WEEK BEFORE THIS HAPPENED I HAD BEEN HEARING A DINGING NOISE, LIKE WHEN YOUR SEATBELT IS OFF (JUST ONE DING THOUGH) AND SOMETHING WOULD FLASH ON MY DASH. IT WAS SO QUICK I WAS UNABLE TO SEE WHAT IT SAID. I STARTED VIDEOING MY DASH TO TRY TO CATCH THE ALERT. I HAVE VIDEO OF MY DASH AS THE ENGINE STOPPED AND ME TRYING TO RESTART MY CAR. (UPLOADED PICTURES OF THE SERVICE SHIFTER BUT IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO UPLOAD THE VIDEO) IT TOOK ME 10-15 MINUTES TO GET IT STARTED BACK UP. DROVE IT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THAT MY JEEP WAS A QUART LOW ON OIL AND THAT IT WAS A "SAFETY FEATURE" THAT IF YOU'RE LOW ON OIL YOUR ENGINE WILL JUST SHUT OFF....NO MATTER IF YOU'RE PARKED OR DRIVING 70 MPH! THAT IS INSANE!! HOW ABOUT AN "OIL LOW LIGHT" MY OIL LIFE PERCENTAGE STILL SHOWED 20% REMAINING AND I WAS SCHEDULING AN OIL CHANGE THE NEXT WEEK. AFTER READING MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS, JUST LIKE MINE, I REQUESTED THAT THEY CHECK THE SHIFTER AGAIN. THEY SAID THAT THE SHIFTER WAS FINE. I PICKED UP MY JEEP FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND DROVE 30 MILES HOME. I PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WITH THE PRND LIGHTS ALL LIT UP. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN THIS MORNING, 06/27/2019 AND JUST GOT A CALL THAT THEY REPLACED THE SHIFTER BEZEL AND WIRING AND DID AN UPDATE. THERE ARE HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS EXACTLY LIKE MINE. THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED NOW BEFORE SOMEONE GETS IN A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT. I DRIVE THE INTERSTATE EVERY SINGLE DAY. IF MY ENGINE SHUTS OFF GOING 70 MPH, IT WILL NOT BE A GOOD SITUATION.

AFTER A VERY SCARY RIDE TO THE DEALERSHIP ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE CAR NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE. THERE WAS BARELY NO OIL .. ACCORDING TO OIL DIPSTICK. THE MESSAGE DID NOT INDICATE OIL WAS LOW. WRONG MESSAGE TO THE OWNER. I COULD HAVE SEIZED MY ENGINE. NEEDING AN OIL CHANGE IS NOT THE SAME ALERTING THE DRIVER THERE IS NO OIL LEFT. THIS SHOULD BE CORRECTED TO INDICATE LOW OIL LEVEL !!! THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN CAR IN MOTION AND IT STALLS OUT. DEALERSHIP TAKING NO RESPONSIBILITY. SHOULD THIS BE A RECALL ISSUE.

Summary

THE "SERVICE SHIFTER" LIGHT WILL TURN ON. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE, THE FIRST TIME AT LESS THAN TEN MILES PER HOUR IN A PARKING LOT AND THE SECOND TIME ON THE INTERSTATE GOING 70 MPH. WHEN THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT TURNS ON, IT ILLUMINATES THE PRND LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER TO ALL RED. SINCE THEY ARE ALL RED, YOU CANNOT TELL IF YOU ARE IN PARK COMPLETELY. THERE IS 26,650 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. IT IS CURRENTLY GETTING SERVICED, THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM SAID IT ONLY NEEDED FLASHED WITH THE COMPUTER, HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP THAT IS CLOSEST TO MY HOME (AND THE ONE WHO IS CURRENTLY REPLACING THE GEAR SHIFTER) TOLD ME THE GEAR SHIFTER HAD TO BE REPLACED AND FLASHING WITH THE COMPUTER WOULD NOT FIX THE ISSUE, AS THIS WAS A FREQUENT ISSUE THEY HAVE SEEN. IF THERE IS A FREQUENT ISSUE WITH THE SHIFTER IN THESE VEHICLES, THEY NEED TO BE RECALLED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SCARY TO NOT HAVE ANY WAY OF KNOWING IF YOU ARE IN PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL OR DRIVE.

Summary

THIS VEHICLE CONSISTENTLY IS 1 QUART LOW ON OIL DURING EACH OIL CHANGE, AND THERE IS NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK, DESPITE THE FACT I GET MY OIL CHANGED PRIOR TO THE RECOMMENDED MILEAGE, AND LESS THAN EVERY 3 MONTHS. I AM USING SYNTHETIC OIL IN THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE ORIGINAL DEALERSHIP, THEN AN OIL CHANGE SHOP TWICE, AND THEN ANOTHER DEALERSHIP TO LOOK AT THE ISSUE. THE LAST DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME THEY WOULD DO AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND THAT I NEEDED TO CHECK MY OIL DIPSTICK FREQUENTLY AS THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF IF THE OIL GETS TOO LOW. NO INDICATOR LIGHT HAS EVER DISPLAYED INDICATING AN ISSUE WITH THE LOW OIL OR OIL PRESSURE. MANY TIMES THE DISPLAY SHOWS I HAVE 40% OR MORE OIL LIFE LEFT, DESPITE THE FACT THE CAR WILL BE 1 QUART LOW ON OIL, WITH NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK. THE CAR HAS 26500 MILES ON IT. THE FIRST TIME THE ISSUE WAS NOTED WAS WHEN MY CAR DID SHUT OFF IN DRIVE, AND I PULLED IT INTO AN OIL CHANGE PLACE WHO ADVISED ME THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH OIL IN THE ENGINE. THE CAR HAD JUST HIT THE MILEAGE MARK TO BE CHANGED. THIS OCCURRED IN THE FALL OF 2018.

Summary

VEHICLE STOPPING AND SHUTTING OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING (IN MOTION) EACH AND EVERY TIME ON FOUR DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. FIRST TIME IT SHUT OFF, DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS DUE TO OIL CHANGE.SECOND TIME DEALERSHIP SAID A RECALL ON THE SHIFT GEAR IN WHICH I WASN'T NOTIFIED ABOUT THE RECALL. THIRD TIME IT SHUT OFF, DEALERSHIP SAYS ITS AN OIL LEAKAGE. FOURTH TIME IT STOPPED, DEALERSHIP SAYS IT NEEDS A NEW ENGINE. CHRYSLER REFUSES TO FIX IT. THE LAST TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, CHRYSLER RESPONSE WAS TAKE IT HOME AND DRIVE IT AGAIN AND BRING IT BACK IF IT SHUTS OFF AND MAYBE THEN WE WILL FIX IT. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED IN THE LAST TIME DUE TO IT NOT STARTING AND SMOKING IN THE TAIL PIPE. ON TWO OCCASIONS, THE RADIO CUT OFF COMPLETELY, SCREEN JUST WENT BLACK. MY CAR IS NOW AT THE DEALERSHIP WAITING ON APPROVAL FROM CHRYSLER TO GET FIXED. THIS JEEP IS VERY UNSAFE, DANGEROUS,AND A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MY SON AND I. IT HAS PUT ME AND MY SONS LIFE IN DANGER ON FOUR DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE EVEN IF THEY CAN FIX IT BECAUSE ITS NOT A GUARANTEE THAT I WILL NOT HAVE THESE ISSUES AGAIN AND NEXT TIME IT COULD COST US OUR LIVES.

Summary

I BACKED OUT OF MY GARAGE INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND STOPPED THE CAR TO BRING IN THE RECYCLING BIN. I SHIFTED INTO WHAT I THOUGHT WAS PARK, RELEASED THE BREAK, AND EXITED THE CAR. AFTER I HAD EXITED, THE CAR BEGAN TO MOVE FORWARD TOWARD THE OPEN GARAGE. I ATTEMPTED TO JUMP BACK INTO THE CAR IN ORDER TO STOP IT AND SUSTAINED A SERIOUS HAND INJURY AS THE JEEP'S DOOR SLAMMED INTO THE SIDE OF THE GARAGE AND CLOSED BACK UPON ME. SIMILAR RUNAWAY CAR EVENTS HAVE OCCURRED TO ME IN THIS CAR (WITH LESS DRAMATIC CONSEQUENCES) TWICE PRIOR, BUT NEVER IN 25 YEARS BEFORE I PURCHASED THIS 2018 GRAND CHEROKEE. SOME 2018 JEEPS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR FAULTY PARK LOCK RODS, SO MY CONCERN IS THAT THE EVENTS I EXPERIENCED HAVE BEEN DUE TO THE INABILITY TO ACHIEVE PARK. EVEN IF I ERRONEOUSLY PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, IT SHOULD TYPICALLY HAVE STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD AS SOON AS I RELEASED THE BREAK, ALERTING ME THAT THE CAR WAS IN GEAR. INSTEAD, NOTHING HAPPENED FOR 3 SECONDS - THIS PROVIDED A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY THAT THE CAR WAS IN PARK AND WORSE, GAVE ME ENOUGH OPPORTUNITY TO EXIT. THIS DELAY CAN BE REPRODUCED WHEN TRANSITIONING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. LASTLY, WHEN THE DOOR IN THE GRAND CHEROKEE IS OPENED WHILE THE CAR IS IN GEAR, IT SIMPLY BEEPS ONCE - A VERY MINIMAL AND INADEQUATE ALERT SYSTEM.

THE ISSUE HE SAID WAS THE MOTOR USING OIL AT APPROXIMATELY 21,589 MILES. I EXPRESSED MY CONCERNS WITH HIM AND ALSO CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY AGAIN TOLD ME THE EXACT THING THAT IT IS NOT SUPPOSE TO GIVE YOU A WARNING IT WAS MADE WHEN THE OIL GETS LOW THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF. MY CONCERNS IS ME OR SOMEONE ELSE IS GOING TO BE SEVERELY HURT OR EVEN KILLED. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL IN MY CAR IT BARELY REACHED THE END OF THE DIP STICK.

THE JEEP DEALER SAID IT NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE, BUT THE OIL LIFE MONITOR SAYS THERE IS STILL 56% OIL LIFE REMAINING. AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO GO AWAY FOR A WHILE. AFTER RESEARCHING, IT APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO THE VEHICLES HYDRAULICALLY DRIVEN VARIABLE VALVE TIMING. JEEP SAYS THE VEHICLE IS LOW ON OIL, THAT'S WHY THE OIL CHANGE FIXES THE PROBLEM, BUT NO OIL LIGHT OR ANY OTHER WARNING EVER COMES ON. THE VEHICLE JUST DIES AND THEN RESTARTS AFTER COASTING OFF THE ROAD OR STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC.

Summary

FOR THE PAST THREE MONTHS SINCE LABOR DAY OF 2018, MY 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE HAS NOT STARTED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. EVENTUALLY IT DOES START BUT IT WILL ALWAYS SAY, "CANNOT READ KEY FOB". I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT IT'S WORSE WHEN I USE THE REMOTE START TO WARM IT UP. WHAT'S REALLY WEIRD IS THAT I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT WHEN I GET OUT OF MY VEHICLE AND GO TO THE BACK HATCH AND USE THE REMOTE TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOORS, IT STARTS AFTER THAT. GO FIGURE. JUST THIS WEEK, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULDN'T SHUT TWICE WITHIN THREE DAYS. THE LATCH WAS STUCK. EVENTUALLY, AFTER TRYING JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING I COULD THINK OF LIKE TURNING THE VEHICLE ON AND OFF AND LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE DOORS FROM THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE, I TRIED USING THE REMOTE TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE DOORS, AND THEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR SHUT PROPERLY. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SUCH A NEW VEHICLE PURCHASE BRAND NEW IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR WITH LESS THAN 14, 000 MILES ON IT WOULD HAVE SO MANY PROBLEMS. THE DEALERSHIP IS PICKING IT UP AGAIN TOMORROW FOR THE THIRD TIME TO ATTEMPT TO FIX IT. LAST CHANCE. IF NOT FIXED THIS TIME, I WILL BE GETTING LEGAL REPRESENTATION. NOT SURE IF THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES BUT I KNOW THAT DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH THE DOOR NOT CLOSED PROPERLY COULD BE A HAZARD. I AM JUST WONDERING IF SOMETHING ELSE MIGHT GO WRONG WITH IT NEXT. I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS VEHICLE TO SAY THE LEAST!

THE DEALER CLAIMS THAT THIS IS NORMAL THROUGHOUT THE LINE OF CHEROKEES AND IS JUST "ROAD VIBRATION" BUT TALKING WITH OTHER OWNERS THIS IS NOT THE CASE AND THEY DO NOT EXPERIENCE THE SAME THING. IT DOES TEND TO FADE AWAY DURING LONG LEFT TURNS ON THE FREEWAY BUT APPEARS AS SOON AS THE VEHICLE STRAIGHTENS. NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO GET THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX THIS HAS RESULTED IN NO HEADWAY AS THE DEALER CLAIMS THAT THIS IS NORMAL.

Summary

ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THE ENGINE SHUT OFF UNEXPECTEDLY AND WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. ONCE ON A HILL, THE NEXT TIME ON A HIGHWAY. THERE WERE NO INDICATOR LIGHTS OR OTHER WARNING SYSTEMS IN PLACE. WHEN IT HAPPENED THE STEERING FAILED AS DID ALL BRAKING SYSTEMS. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. BOTH TIMES OIL WAS BELOW READABLE LEVEL. IT WAS ALSO LOW PRIOR TO DEALER RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGE PERIOD. I WAS TOLD AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST NEEDED TO BE DONE, BUT IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. WHEN OIL CONSUMPTION WAS DEEMED LOW, I WAS TOLD THAT JEEP CORPORATION REQUIRED THAT THE TEST BE REPEATED AND TO DRIVE ANOTHER 1,000 MILES. I CONTACTED CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND WAS TOLD "INDEPENDENT DEALERSHIPS CAN DECIDE HOW TO HANDLE THIS PROBLEM". THEN IT WAS RECOMMENDED THAT I SEE IF A DIFFERENT DEALER MIGHT BE MORE HELPFUL. NO SAFETY ACTIONS WERE TAKEN BY THE DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT.

OUR OIL CAN BE AT 35% AND CAUSE THE CAR TO STOP DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROADWAY...THAT IS NOT SAFE! WE SHOULDN'T NEED TO REPLACE OIL U TIL 20% OR LESS AS THAT IS WASTEFUL...

Summary

PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODED OUTWARD - AT 5:15 AM, I WAS JUST STARTING TO GET ON THE ON RAMP TO THE FREEWAY. I WAS NOT UP TO FREEWAY SPEED YET. WEATHER CONDITIONS WERE GOOD AND APPROX. 61 DEGREES. AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE ONRAMP I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION THAT FREAKED ME OUT SO BAD I WAS THANKFUL I DID NOT CRASH. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ALL TIRES WERE FINE. ALL SURROUNDING WINDOWS WERE FINE. I HAD THE SUNROOF BARRIER CLOSED SO I DIDN'T EVEN THINK ABOUT THE SUNROOF UNTIL I HEARD CHARDS OF GLASS BEADS ON THE BARRIER. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY IN THE DARK AND GRADUALLY OPENED UP THE BARRIER TO THE SUN ROOF A LITTLE. I COULD SEE THAT ALMOST THE ENTIRE PANE OF THE BACK PART OF THE PANORAMIC SUNROOF HAD SHATTERED MAKING A HUGE GAPING HOLE. I TURNED THE CAR AROUND AND WENT HOME. IF IT WAS A ROCK OR SOMETHING WAS DROPPED ON IT THE ROCK STILL WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE ON THE BARRIER. THE SUNROOF LITERALLY BOWS UPWARD AND IT CRACKED AT THE SEAMS SO YOU CAN SEE IT HAS DEFINITELY BLOWN OUT. THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT OR WORSE IF THE BARRIER HAD BEEN OPEN AND THE GLASS HAD SHATTERED ON ME. IT IS OBVIOUSLY MADE OF SAFETY GLASS. THE EXPLOSION WAS VERY LOUD AND EAR PIERCING.

Summary

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF IN MID DRIVE, IN MOTION, IN A PARKING STRUCTURE GETTING READY TO GET ON THE FREEWAY. I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE I NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE AND I WASN'T OVER MILEAGE BY THAT MUCH, HE SAID HE HAS HEARD THIS HAPPEN BEFORE TO A CUSTOMER. I WAS SO TERRIFIED BECAUSE I COULD HAVE BEEN ON THE FREEWAY AND COULD HAVE GOTTEN INTO AN ACCIDENT AND INJURED AND UNTIL THIS DAY I AM VERY DISTURBED AND WORRY IF IT WILL TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING AND EVEN MORE TERRIFIED IF I AM ON THE FREEWAY! I JUST WANT TO REPORT THIS BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP'S RESPONSE DIDN'T SIT WELL WITH ME AND I THINK IT IS VERY VERY DANGEROUS FOR THE CAR TO TURN OFF JUST BECAUSE YOU NEED AN OIL CHANGE, IS THERE A DEFECT IN MY CAR?

Summary

I GOT ON I-95 FROM THE LANTANA EXIT HEADING WEST AND I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD SPEEDOMETER ACCELERATED TO 119 MILE PER HOUR BUT THE VEHICLE ITSELF WAS NOT MOVING AT THAT SPEED. I EXITED TWO EXIT'S LATER ONTO GATEWAY BLVD AND THE DASHBOARD SPEEDOMETER WAS STILL SHOWING THAT I WAS GOING AT A DANGEROUS SPEED THAN I WAS ACTUALLY GOING. I CALLED SCHUMACHER DELRAY WHERE I NOW LEASE THE VEHICLE FROM AND I WAS GIVEN AN APPOINTMENT FOR FRIDAY 4/27/2018. I ALSO EMAILED THE MANAGER KEN CADMENS AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR SAL DELGRECO AND I AM STILL AWAITING A RESPONSE. I OBTAINED THIS VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH AGO WHERE I GAVE BACK A 2016 JEEP PATRIOT WHICH HAD DANGEROUS WHEEL BEARING ISSUES THAT CAUSED THE TIRES TO WEAR AS THOUGH THEY WERE 10 YEARS OLD. ABOUT (3)THREE WEEKS AFTER, LEASING THIS NEW 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE ON MARCH 14, 2018, I WAS INFORMED THROUGH CREDIT KARMA THAT MY 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE MAY (NOT FOR CERTAIN) HAVE DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUES THAT CAN CAUSE A CRASH AND FATALITY AND THAT I SHOULD GET IT CHECKED OUT. I CONTACTED THE SAME TWO ABOVE INDIVIDUALS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED IMMEDIATELY BY EMAIL TO INQUIRE ABOUT THIS CREDIT KARMA REPORT REGARDING THE VEHICLE SAFETY. HOWEVER, TO DATE APRIL 24, 2018 THEY NOR ANYONE ELSE HAS GOTTEN BACK TO ME. FAST FORWARD TO TODAY, I AM NOW BEGINNING TO HAVE THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM OF AN EXCESSIVE SPEED READING OF THE VEHICLE SPEEDOMETER SHOWING ON THE DASHBOARD. I CAN ONLY HOPE AND PRAY THAT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT ACCELERATE IT SELF TO THE ACTUAL EXCESSIVE SPEEDS THAT IT IS SHOWING ON THE DASHBOARD.

THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH DOWN THE HIGHWAY CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL. IT WOULD NOT SHIFT BACK TO DRIVE. WE HAD TO PULL OVER AND TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART THE VEHICLE TO GET THE CAR TO GO IN DRIVE AGAIN. LUCKILY WE WERE IN AN OUTSIDE LANE AND COULD PULL OVER TO THE EDGE OF THE HIGHWAY. IT IS SCARY TO THINK WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD WE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE OF RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE. *TT *TR
