Car was driven about 2 miles to the jeep dealer where it was purchased. They suggested i call chrysler. Chrysler sent an engineer to investigate. Chrysler sent me a letter stating that there was nothing that would leave them to believe it was the manufacturer's responsibility. I am trying to find out why it deployed. Chrysler will not provide me with this information. If they can make a determination that it was not a manufacturer defect, then they should know what caused it in order to make that determination. I spoke to an auto body shop as suggested by the dealer to get a rough estimate of the repair cost but they said they were not interested in repairing it without knowing what caused it do to liability issues, which i understand. I do not know what caused the deployment but chrysler must know or else they couldn't determine it was not a manufacture problem.....updated 11/21/17

I have been having trouble starting my 2007 jeep grand cherokee for months. First i changed the battery that was over $170 dollars , then a few weeks ago the starter that was $340 dollars meanwhile the problem was the ignition switch .i brought my car back to my mechanic and now he tells me it is the ignition switch that same day i receive in the mail a recall notice from chrysler for the ignition switch. Chrysler also states that they do not have any parts to fix the problem and that the car is totally unsafe to drivein their recall notice. I need a car to go to my appointments for work i cannot depend on this car and it is unsafe to drive. Therefore i have to rent a car and chrysler should pay for the rental car that i need to drive during the period that they do not have parts for my car. I already called my local dealer and they said speak to chrysler. I called their toll free number 1 800 992 1997 and received an incident number of #[xxx]. The person i spoke to was [xxx] she said she was escalating my call to parts and they will be contacting me in a few days. It is now sunday september 21st and i am renting a car as of today because chrysler does not have parts to fix the car they manufactured. Chrysler must be held responsible for all costs and injuries related to this problem.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Since the first event the vehicle has stalled at the most importuned time. Two years ago it stalled twice while entering the new jersey garden state parkway on the same day. A year ago it stalled at 40 miles per hour traveling north on university blvd 100 ft from the dealer kelly jeep dealership were the vehicle was purchased.i was made aware in july 2014 that there was an ignition key problem. By a local auto body repair shop owner. I remove everything from key except a small lightweight identification plastic taga month ago it stalled again which turning onto high speed four lange expressway. I have contact a different dealer three months go and was told chrysler is working on the problem. This is a very dangerous situation. I can't believe that in almost a year chrysler still appears to have not inkling of owh to solve the problem prior to the public announcement in sept 2014 i had it to the dealer and was required to have vehicle tested by the analyzer. No problem was found. Even though i am 90 years old i still have sufficient strength to get the vehicle to a stop and if possible to the side of the highway in order to restart it. But i am afraid that if this happens with my wife while driving she will not be have sufficient strength to steerof brake the vehicle when it losses complete power.how is this any different than the accidently operation of the ignition key event that has occurred with general motor products.last we i received a recall notice from chrysler regarding the need to re-program the final drive control module (fdcm), that may cause the service $wd light to be activated making it impossible to change gears. I do not see that listed as a recall and i have never received any other notice. His apparently has a higher priority at chrysler than the ignition key issue. Regards,

As i was driving my jeep shut offand i was unable to steer and started to slow down in the middle of the freeway going 65 mph.i was unable to get out of the road and on to the shoulder causing several cars to almost hitting me.when the jeep stopped i put the suv in park and tried starting all it did was make noise.i then stepped on the brake and put in neutral and tried starting it and it wouldn't start.i waited a few minutes put the jeep back in park and tried again and it started but i'm scared to drive in now.this happened to me 4 times now but the other times it is when i am either coming off the freeway or on a city street not going that fast and in that much traffic.

I am writing to you requesting your assistance in finding out what is wrong with my 2007, 67,000 mile jeep grand cherokee laredo. For approximately four months while driving the car it has been randomly miss firing, bucking and surging, and stalling when coming to a complete stop.the unpredictability of the cars speed, bucking and surging, and stalling when stopped is a major safety concern to me because this occurs without notice on both street and freeway driving. I have taken my car to the nearest jeep service dealer, crystal chrysler jeep three times now and they have not been able to diagnose the cause to this problem.in fact, my car has been in the service department at crystal chrysler for nearly three weeks now, and they cannot identify specifically what is causing this malfunction.my frustration over my beloved jeep grows because without finding the cause there is no telling when my car will be ready.this experience now has me questioning the reliability of jeep vehicles and the confidence in service dealers like crystal chrysler.please help me find out what is wrong with my jeep vehicle.

Stalling issues with 5.7 hemi jeep grand cherokee overland. Vehicle stalls at random but at low speeds and coming to a stop. Happens approximately 3 to 4 times per month (about once a week). Vehicle loses complete power, brakes, steering, etc. Huge safety issue. Only way to restart is to put in neutral or park. No check engine light but stores p0884 code. Dealer can not replicate problem but notices code. Dealer does not have a fix or does not know how to fix. Vehicle has stalled on railroad tracks, 5pm traffic, and worse possible times and could cause serious injury.

Vehicle had an ignition switch recall (p41) which was replaced by dealer.after replacement part failed and vehicle was towed to dealer for repair march 4, 2017. Dealer informed me that the replaced ignition coil had failed and they would further repair as part of recall.vehicle, 7 weeks later, is still not repaired.i have escalated my case from the dealership to jeep national and vehicle still not repaired with no update.i was informed during this process that my car is a "one-off", the replacement recall part that was intended for my vehicle does not work in my vehicle and that jeep is further researching how to repair.i am filing a complaint due to timeliness of repair.while recall repair has been free of charge, original part replacement took less than one day.dealership has been evaluating recall part for seven weeks and still do not have any information of when vehicle will be repaired/returned.jeep originally offered a loaner vehicle which i turned down as i was told repair would be only a couple of days.i have now requested several times for a comparable loaner vehicle while jeep is still evaluating the repair.jeep will not provide a loaner vehicle and i am told it is because my car is no longer under warranty.while i understand warranties, jeep has my car because of failed recall replacement part and they will not put in original part due to recall.jeep also closed out the recall on my vehicle. Please advise.
2007 jeep grand cherokee starting issues.i have had been stranded three times now due to my vehicle not starting, i have paid to have it towed three times.mechanics cannot figure out what the issue is.i have read thousands of on-line reports of the same issue.i spent $700 last month on something in the transmission (transfer case maybe) and it would not start again yesterday and i had to have it towed again.i as a single mother cannot be continue to be stranded.apparently no one can figure out what is going on with these vehicles.i have just over 50,000 miles on it, and would consider this to be a fairly newer vehicle.i am scared to drive it anywhere.i also seem to have shifting problems especially going up hills.i am scared i am going to be left stranded somewhere alone with my daughter.

Transfer case, suspension and ignition switch seems to be causing major issues after 105,000 miles and the "warranty" just ended just before all these issues started happening. When tried to start once the engine shuttered then turned off. Started up after that, but then it has issues wanting to accelerate and can feel the jeep struggling at times to switch gears or whatever the transfer case may assist in. Also have noticed the suspension has start to rock.

When you shift from park the prdnl will have a box around each of the letters. When backing up it slams into reverse and then slams into drive and the vehicle will only go 20 mph no matter how much you step on the gas.this has now happened 5 times and the only way it goes back to normal is to shut off the vehicle and start it back up.i have now seen numerous blogs where this happens at highway speeds, in the middle of intersections and is so dangerous to drive cause you never know when it is going to happen.from what i have read it looks like you have to replace the electronic control module at a cost of almost $800 to just have it go out again later and have the same problem again. This is very dangerous and scary!

The first incident occurred in a brief manner. The vehicle would not start, system stated that the vehicle was not in gear. I turned the key to off. Then tried again and the vehicle started. I left in the vehicle without incident several other times that day. The next day i attempted to start the vehicle, it would not start. One of the attempts the brake would not depress. After several other attempts (of on to off) the vehicle started. Ran normal. Once turned off it would not restart. The brakes are normal again. All electrical cables are attached, no corrosion. Vehicle has full power to other components. Yet the starter is not engaging. The system is not showing any errors. We called chrysler (not a dealer), according to our vin they determined that the vehicle is not included in any of the ignition recalls.
I was drivinghome froma trip and was two hours from home.i stopped at a fruit stand and when i got back in the vehicle it would not start despite it clearly not being a battery problem.the car was towed to the dealer. This occurred on a saturday. On monday when they inspected the vehicle it started with no problem. They ran a computer diagnostic check and found no faults. I was told to drive the vehicle until it "acted up again". Twelve days later it would not start again. I had it towed to the dealer who determined that the starter motor needed to be replaced.i find it amazing that i needed to wait until the car broke down again in order to determine what wrong with the vehicle. Clearly there were issues and simply running a computer test was not sufficient.

My husband and i were traveling to charleston, sc on i-26 to have a nice valentine's weekend.everything was fine until we merged onto i-26 in columbia, sc, when we felt a small jolt in the truck like it was hesitating or something.so we dismissed it as maybe bad gas or something.it happened a couple more times and as we were passing a rest area outside of orangeburg, sc in the left lane going with the flow of traffic at about 80 mph, the whole truck just shut down.no power steering and the car will not crank in neutral.traffic is pretty heavy on a holiday weekend, and i have tractor trailer beside me and behind me on a two lane interstate.trying not to panic, i put on the hazard lights and waving out the window like crazy trying to get these truck driver's attention, thank god they noticed and the one beside me sped up and my husband was able to get over by the exit of the rest area.after thanking god for our lives, we decided to try and make it to a dealership in orangeburg.we get there, and after 2 hours they say it was the throttle body and a tune up$300 bucks and another 2 hours we finally got on our way.we made it to charleston and salvaged a pretty good day trip considering what we went through, with no problems.it jolted once on the way back about 40 miles from home.so the next day i remembered we had gotten a letter from chrysler, and when we looked at it we realized that the recall was the real problem.this letter came in september of 2013, and we have not heard anything from them since then, almost 2 years later.also, you would think that a jeep dealer would know about recalls on all of the vehicles they sell when they put the vin in the system.now we just use the one key, stay close to the right lane and hope for the best.another car/payments is not an option.

Car wouldn't start transmission overtemp error. Drive to work 20 min parked car flat surface came out to leave after 8 hour shift that error message and won't start. 2nd time this has happened no warning was told common issue pigtail to starter because of placement it gets wet or moisture. Which makes this car questionable to drive.
Numerous times i've been driving and my car has lost power and i've had to restart the engine. Sometimes it takes a while for my car to start on the first turn of the key. The start gets dragged on. Sometimes all my check engine lights come on with every other lights as well. Several times i have to wait then start the car and it will turn on. Besides the car completely turning off while i'm driving, now my car won't turn on at all. The battery is fine. Radio and everything turns on. But the ignition won't click over and start my car. So, now i am with no car for work. I called chrysler headquarters for my calls recall back in september and was told they are out of the part they need. My car worked then, just very sketchy, so i was ok waiting, just extremely cautious. Now it won't even turn on, i called jeep, they said they are still waitin for the part and all i can do is wait on the list. They won't even give me a loaner since it's a recall issue and not a "service" issue. I have no car, and not the money for a new one, so now i'm at a loss.

Was able to make it to side of road. Check engine light code was u0404 and now the gear shift control module needs to be replaced. However after looking over other complaints from jeep owners i see this has been a problem on these vehicles. I think its time for a recall especially that it happens every 30,000 -40,000 miles. Unreal at the cost of repair. Nothing like a scam. Will never own a jeep again..

Have submitted a complaint before but the problem continues and has gotten worse. My jeep loses all electrical power and shuts down and restarts itself while driving, occasionally doesn't accelerate past second gear and other times accelerates very slowly, numerous but problem began recurring only days later. Only now my jeep is additionally at times acting like it wants to shut down but instead is just faltering shaking the whole vehicle violently accompanied by the struggling to accelerate. - electrical system on five occasions all of dash lights came on and went off while i was driving, two of these times the engine stalled and restarted itself. Took vehicle to dealership and was told no problem was found. Numerous electrical issues. The most dangerous have been the prnd lighting up and vehicle not going over 1st or 2nd gear while driving. This has happened to me 7 times now, 4 of which have tried to be diagnosed by the dealer without success of this and gave it to the dealer when they told me 'nothing was wrong' according to their diagnostics. Photo proved otherwise. Also the vehicle has shut itself off twice while i was driving on a busy road. The windows also get stuck and will not work. Have to operate one window to make the other one work. The battery failed and 'transmission over temp" error happened at the same time. Manufacturer's service agent said it was a false readout due to battery failure transmission. This has been a problem since first started yesterday on 04 /10/2011 i need help my car is in newark nj.

In may of 2014 i replaced my starter because when i would attempt to start my vehicle it would crank but the engine would not turn over. The condition persisted even after putting on an new starter. I eventually went to a jeep dealer and they were unable to remedy the problem. I received a recall notice from chrysler about p41/nhtsa 14v-438 recall but was not given a time frame as to when i would be able to take the vehicle in for servicing. In the meantime i continue to drive the one vehicle and it has continued to not start in instances when i need it most. It has done so while my wife had the vehicle which has caused me great distress as she was alone and panicked when it happened. The vehicle does start eventually after about 20 minutes or so. This is unsafe and unacceptable. We spoke to a representative at the dealership where the vehicle was purchased and she told us she could not say when the part would be available. She went on to say we could wait it out or trade it in and basically tack on the amount owed on to the purchase of another vehicle. This is not an option. This situation is very inconvenient as i use the vehicle primarily to commute to work and if unable to drive to work our household income will take a huge blow. We seek remedy.[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Car stalled while traveling on highway at 65mph with light throttle. Electrical systems stayed on, engine cut out with no warning. When the engine stopped a single alert chime sounded. The car was maneuvered to the shoulder. Placed the vehicle in park and restarted by turning off, then on. Started on first attempt. This is the first stall i have encountered after purchasing the jeep 1 month ago. The engine has stuttered a couple of times at highway speeds with the alert chime sounding once each time, but the engine restarted within a second and continued going.

Vehicle will not start. (thought it was starter motor like everyone else). After checking on internet and reading same problem that other jeep owners had.( replacing starter motor didnot solve problem). Thought to myself could it possibly be a loose wire. Had someone hold the key in start mode while i pulled on the wire harness going down between engine and battery. Had to jiggle it in different directions an don't u know it started right up. It has happened 3 times since then and this method worked each time. Dealer says he never heard of such problem. Wants to charge 100+ an hour for diagnostics. P.s.- be careful not to get burned or get caught by flywheel belts if u try this method at least i didn't have to pay for tow truck .
When vehicle goes over a small or large bump, a dashboard light cluster indicates to service 4wd system and is accompanied by abs, traction control, and esp bas warning lights. Abs is noticeably disabled when this light cluster appears. The indications usually last a few minutes before going away. This has been occurring for approximately the last 18,000 miles. When brought up at the dealership during routine maintenance, i am told they can find nothing wrong with the vehicle. On this last occasion, i lost full braking authority and was luckily able to gradually slow down and pull over to the freeway shoulder while applying the emergency brake. When the vehicle was shut off and turned back on the indications went away and braking was restored. Obviously, this creates a very dangerous situation.

Letter from congressman desantis on behalf of constituent re 2007 jeep cherokee recall.the consumer stated the turning of the ignition switch that was installed exacerbated the nerves in his right arm, from a previous injury.
I was driving approximately 40 mph in the fast lane of a main two-lane residential roadway when the vehicle suddenly jerked violently forward throwing me into the steering wheel and then all acceleration and speed stopped.the steering wheel became abnormally stiff and difficult to turn however i was able to guide the completely stalled and decelerating vehicle to the slow lane and pull-off on the side of the road (with no side lane) with hazards flashing and traffic passing. This was an inherently dangerous condition as the flow of traffic was going approximately 35 - 40 in the fast lane at which time i completely lost power and had limited steering (more like coasting) ability.i was able to turn the engine completely off and restart, however the next day under similar conditions of normal driving conditions the vehicle jerked and stalled again, and restarted after a complete shutdown.this vehicle on the third day post the first incident failed to restart after driving to a local shopping destination and turning the car off to park.i left the vehicle at the location for approximately 4 to 5 hours and retrieved the vehicle upon which it started with a documented call into road side assistance program from jeep.the next day (monday) i drove to an authorized dealer upon which they stated the failure was the electronic shift module (esm) [(not to be confused with the electronic stability control (esc)] which controls the electronic signals from the computer to the transmission at a personal cost of $820.i believe this represents a known defect as currently 55 out of the 133 complaints listed here are describing a similar series of events and root cause, and would be willing to be involved in a class action law suit against jeep as life, limb and property are at stake.
I have been waiting since sept 2014 for ignition switch recall. And every time i call they state there are no parts available.this is a very dangerous situation with people dying please help me find out what else i can do to get this recall completed.
Vehicle will stall while idling or decelerating. Jeep must be put into park or neutral and ignition completely turned off and back on for car engine to turn over. Vehicle also has stalled while driving at approximately 35 mph, also needing to be restarted to resume function. The engine light will remain on half of the time once the vehicle has stalled and been restarted. The vehicle stalls anywhere from once to a dozen times a day while driving and it occurs more in the cold weather. This vehicle has been taken to the dealership twice regarding the issue, and has different codes with each visit for things that need to be repaired. This vehicle is a large safety hazard.

2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo - randomly the vehicle will not start, when turning the key to in the ignition you can hear the relay clicking, engine does not crank or start. When the key is returned to the off position the data display below the tachometer momentarily states that the transmission is overheated. The battery is fully charged and everything else, lights, horn, etc still work. There are no error codes dumped. The first attempt to fix this by the dealership was to replace the starter, now 4 months later the vehicle is doing the same exact thing. This has become a reliability issue in that there is no telling when this will occur, each time family members have been stranded with this vehicle, jeep dealership seems to be "stumped". I have read of many jeep vehicles that demonstrate this very same problem, without resolution. This can be an intermittent issue, usually have to wait until it becomes a "hard" fail before the dealership will look at it. This is extremely frustrating owning this vehicle not knowing when it will or will not start and whether the dealership can or cannot fix it!
While driving the jeep on the interstate at 65 mphlost all power was able to get it to the side of the road and after a minute it restarted it has done it numerous times sometimes sitting at a traffic light sometimes driving 25 mph through town there is no warning no dash signs of anything wrong vehicle just shut off lose all power terrifying took it to a jeep dealer couldn't duplicate the problem also the radio plays and the dash display does not light up my power windows will go up and down by themselves and end up halfway. I only been able to drive the car short distances because of the fear of death lose breaking and steering.

The check engine light comes on. Had the code checked (u0404). Invalid data received from gear shift module. Took jeep to dealer and they checked code ( it was stored ). They would not work on the jeep because the code was not active. The check engine light with this code has come on a lot of times. I am concerned about the jeep stalling while driving.
The 4-wheel drive transfer case can direct engine power to the rear wheels only, all four wheels, or in its neutral position, non at all. These vehicles are being recalled because the transfer case can shift into its neutral position without warning. If this were to occur, engine power would not reach any of the drive wheels and the vehicle could not move under its own power. Dealers will reprogram the final drive controller which governs the transfer case to correct this concern.

2007 jeep grand cherokee (5.7 hemi) with 50,000 miles frequently stalls both in motion and while stopped.stalling causes all electronics to shutoff, which results in loss of power steering and brakes.numerous times, i have almost been hit because the vehicle will nearly stop in the middle of the road.the vehicle has been taken to a jeep dealership four times for the stalling issue, which has not been resolved.the dealer claims they cannot replicate the issue.this random stalling is a severe safety hazard that endangers both me, my passengers, and people driving around me. There are thousands of posts on the web referring to the same stalling issue with the jeep grand cherokees (wk) and the jeep commanders (xk).does someone have to be killed before anyone takes action?

There seems to be a problem with the ignition switch. The vehicle dashboard instrument panel (speedometer, odometer, fuel, temp gauges) will shut off while driving. Power is also lost to all exterior lights, the ac/heat, and radio. This happens sporadically but can be manipulated by wiggling the key while it is in the ignition and the car is on. When driving at night this is extremely dangerous and has left me stranded on several occasions.

Vehicle started stalling, first it would stall at low speeds, usually coming to a stop. Now the vehicle is stalling at highway speeds leaving it open for a deadly situation. At highway speeds, the vehicle will lose power, you will not be able to accelerate and the oil light will come on. Have tried putting the vehicle into neutral to resart during coasting but you need to turn the key all they way off and then restart. Will usually restart immediately. Called chrysler to see if there were any recalls, there are none but they recommend replacing the power control module or electronic control module. If they recommended replacing a part that leads me to believe there is a known problem with those parts.

We did not have an accident, however, we have received a recall notice from chrysler two years ago regarding the ignition switch which could cause the vehicle to loose power if it is not replaced.we have been calling the dealership button motors in kokomo indiana as well as the chrysler toll free number to get this work done but they tell us they are waiting for the part.i am very concerned that something might happen before this work gets done.it's amazing that whenever we have work done on this vehiclethat we have to pay for the parts are always available within a day or two but when it comes to recalls it takes two years??? seriously.can you please helps expedite this before a serious accident develops.the recall number is p41/nhtsa 14v-438.
I have had this vehicle to the multiple dealerships since i owned it.there is a two second delay when you push down on the accelerator.dealerships can't find anything wrong.i replaced the catalytic converters, 4wd module.every light comes on, check engine, check gas cap etc.it now gets horrible gas mileage and the transmission stopped working.this has been a lemon since day one and jeep refuses to correct the situation.it is at the dealership now.

The vehicle typically stalls while driving at highway speeds but has stalled on city streets. When the vehicle stalls i am able to turn the ignition back on and drive. I have had thep41 / nhtsa 14v-438 recall and this did not resolve the issues. It is stalling even more often now. I have had this issue for the last 3 years i have owned the vehicle. I have taken it in for repair to 3 different repair shops not including the recall and it is still not fixed. This is a major safety concern. The vehicle stalled one particular time and i was almost hit by a bus on the highway. When the vehicle stalls you lose power steering and i was lucky enough to make it out of the way. The current mileage is approximately 132,500.

My wife was taking our grand daughter to the hospital at 10 pm and every dummy light came on the jeep and it started idling funny the taillights went out so she had to drive that late at night with no brake/ taillights on 69 with our granddaughter in the back. With nothing working what would keep somebody hitting her in the rear end or even worse what if something had happened and the airbags didn't deploy because there was an electrical problem. My wife has called chrysler jeep and made a complaint and they say that there is nothing they can do about it. We have looked online and found quite a few complaints about this particular problem with jeeps. This is not the first time this has happened either.....it happens on a regular basis. I fear for the safety of my family whenever they are driving. We bought this vehicle about 6 months ago with 100,000 miles on it and purchased the extended warranty. We have taken it to the jeep dealership 3 times and they keep saying nothing is wrong with it. My wife has several videos of everything going haywire in the jeep while she was driving. Anything nhtsa can do to help us out on this matter would be greatly appreciated especially before one of my family members get hurt.thank you kevin

Intermittent stalling issue. Initially the vehicle starts and runs fine. After stopping or extended driving duration the vehicle will random start stalling and check engine light flashes and dings. This will last for a few minutes sometimes and other times the entire trip. The last few times this has happened we were nearly rear ended and pulled over until it was somewhat drive able.i am terrified to drive it at this time for fear it will cause an accident. This has been an ongoing issue for a few years and has recently gotten worse. We've taken the vehicle to the jeep dealership several times and have had numerous parts replaced but nothing has resolved the problem. The last trip to the dealer they said they could not replicate the described issue. With the use of a scope and code review, my husband has taken to replacing smaller, simple parts in hopes of a simple solution....spark plugs, 02 sensors and catalytic converters. Nothing has helped. Please help resolve this issue. Seeing all the other similar complaints, how many does it take to start an investigation or recall? it's a shame an accident it what it may take to attract attention to this issue.

I was driving at highway speed when i accidently touched the key in the ignition switch.the engine died and i coasted to the roadside where i restarted the engine.i had received the recall notice sent by chrysler and had followed the directions contained in the notice, so notified them of the incident.about a month later the same thing occurred but this time i did not touch the key.this time it happened while i was stoppedat an intersection and started to accelerate into a turn.the vehicle had just began to move when it died.i restarted the vehicle and completed the trip.i again notified chrysler who directed me to have the switch replaced immediately.the dealer that i was using told me the old model replacement switch was not in stock and unavailable as the new parts had not been produced and he would not attempt to find a replacement.i located a dealer who ordered the old designed part from chrysler stock and replaced it for me.they also instructed me to return when the new parts are available as the work did not satisfy the recall notice.i contacted chrysler some time back to see when newly designed parts would be available and they still had not received them.they also said they had no time frame for the replacement parts.this is the one year anniversary of the problem without resolution, far too long.

All of the vehicle dash lights and accessories lose power momentarily and intermittently. It's almost as if someone is turning the ignition switch off, but the engine seems to stay running. Vehicleloses acceleration if on an upward slope while this is happening. It is momentary and intermittently recurs at times. I have not noticed if it affects braking due to the very momentary nature of this problem.
On five occasions all of dash lights came on and went off while i was driving, two of these times the engine stalled and restarted itself. Took vehicle to dealership and was told no problem was found.

While driving my 2007 jeep grand cherokee (11/8/14) i was at a red light and the vehicle just cut off! i heard a beeping sound and noticed all the lights on the dash board were off while the car was in "drive".i put the car in "park" & turned the key in the "off" position--waited a few minutes & started the car again. I had my mother with me & told her about the "recall" & this was it...the ignition switch (recall p41).we decided to go home & when i pulled in her driveway, the same thing happened again...the engine just cut off!i'm very afraid to drive my jeep now...this could have happened while i was on the highway!! something needs to be done now!! this is my only means of transportation!!what procedures do you have in place to assist people until you are able to get the replacement part(s)? lives are at stake!!
Left turn signal remains on with switch in neutral position at all times
I already filed a complaint about this problem last month with nhtsa.this week i found out i can turn the ignition key off while the car is driving....wow! i discovered that because i wanted to re-inact what the car does while i'm driving it so the jeep mechanics can figure out what's wrong with this car.i can be driving down the road at different speeds & all of a sudden all the dash warning lights come on, i lose acceleration, like the car is shutting down.i panic and pump the gas peddle(no acceleration) and try to turn the ignition key on, that makes the lights on dash go off, & i resume speed like nothing happened.this car has done this since it was new, dealership guys would tell me "take any extra keys off your key ring" when i only had a couple of keys on it.today, when i took it into the dealership, the first thing the mechanic said was "take extra keys off", i only have 2 other keys on the ring.i put a dealership service tech in the car with me in the parking lot & told him to move the ignition key while driving, he said "you shouldn't be able to do that".he went in the back to talk to one of the mechanics and he said the same thing, you shouldn't be able to turn the key in drive.now i have an appt. On thursday 3/20/14 to leave the car there for inspection. I am afraid to drive this car now.it always happened about 4 times a year since it was new, but lately it has happened about 4 times in the last 2 weeks.with the deaths on the news right now with gm, frankly i don't want to be a statistic!the dealership says intermittent problems are very hard to detect, says it would be good to get the car when it strands me, then they will know what's wrong.it would be my luck the next time it happens, i will be going 60 mph on e-way & a semi truck runs me over when i lose power.please take this complaint seriously.

Problems with car for over a year. Car would stall unexpectedly while driving approx 30 mph.happened on numerous occasions.multiple times car would not start.instrument warning lights would go on at times and then go off.car has been serviced and any repairs made as warranted.took to dealer for recall but told part is unavailable.dealer replaced ignition switch with a "new" one.car still stalls out and today would not start. Extremely unhappy with chrysler and the delay in delivering the recall parts. The reasonable time for remedy had been grossly exceeded. I feel the car is unsafe to drive. I hope to be contacted asap about this situation.
The vehicle is equipped with air pressure sensing tire valves that are made of a substandard metal that corrodes and brakes. The first time i had an issue the tip of the valve broke and the tire could not be inflated. The second time, today, the valve broke in half and the tire deflated in about ten seconds. Fortunately, the vehicle was not moving.i replaced the part at the dealer the first time and they stated it was a known issue with the part and that a new part had been made that would not corrode.the fact that it has happened on two of the four sensors shows this is not an uncommon problem. Clearly such a blow out at highway speeds would have put my life and the lives of those near me in jeopardy.

Numerous electrical issues. The most dangerous have been the prnd lighting up and vehicle not going over 1st or 2nd gear while driving.this has happened to me 7 times now, 4 of which have tried to be diagnosed by the dealer without success, they just replaced the gear shifter twice. The 3rd time i had taken a photo of this and gave it to the dealer when they told me 'nothing was wrong' according to their diagnostics.photo proved otherwise.also the vehicle has shut itself off twice while i was driving on a busy road. The windows also get stuck and will not work. Have to operate one window to make the other one work.the battery failed and 'transmission over temp" error happened at the same time.manufacturer's service agent said it was a false readout due to battery failure but they did fix something on the transmission.i am filing for a second lemon law arbitration hearing in florida. It is a very dangerous vehicle with these issues.incident date on this form is only the last date of occurrence since only one option.this has been a problem since first purchasing this 'new' vehicle.

When driving my vehicle on the highway i noticed that all of the warning lights on my dashboard were flashing on and then off again, this happened numerous times. It stopped after a few minutes. My fuel, tachometer, speedometer, oil pressure gauges also went from the on to off positions. I notified my car dealership and brought the vehicle in for repair, the service manager said " they can't find the problem if it doesn't present itself " so i drove the vehicle back home. Weeks had passed and the same things happened again, all the warning lights came on then they went off numerous times, the gauges went on and off also. I called the dealership again, they told me take off any unnecessary items off the keyring this could be the problem. I told the dealership that " i don't have anything on my keyring" they told me they wouldn't be able to find the problem unless it presents itself. I spoke to a mechanic who has 30 yrs of experience in auto repairs and electrical troubleshooting. He told me it was probably the ignition cut-off switch or short in the wiring harness that was causing my problems. He told me to research it on the internet. I did and i found other jeep owners with the same issue and resolved it with a repair. My question is this. Why won't chrysler own up to this problem and fix it?
Riding down rode. Speedometer and lights failed. Took to dealership while the vehicle was at the shop the walked away to file paperwork and airbags deployed on the vehicle.it was the right side air curtain. The entire length of the unit.according to the dealership the car was sitting motionless on the garage floor.
I have 2 recalls from jeep and nothing has been done for years, they are p41/nhtsa 14v-438 and p73. Every time i go into the dealership they say they can't get the parts. The forms they send out don't have a date on them so they are smart enough not to have any incriminating evidence as to how long the customer sits on these and they are waiting for an accident or the customer sells the car and the paper work gets lost. These vehicle manufacturers need to be jacked up a little bit and be given an ultimatum to get these recalls fixed before something serious is caused by there criminal intent to not to fix these recalls.

I purchased the vehicle at the end of may 2012 engine light was on and had a due bill for work to be done, stalling was 1 of the issues. Got it back with no check engine light on,but still stalled whenever hot or cold driving or in park. Has been in and out of the shop for almost a year and it still stalls, jeep tech's cant figure it out. Dies sometimes 3-4 times a day and once in awhile not at all, but on average 3-5 times a week,never throws a code or check engine light just dies like if i turn the key off. I have to stop or pull over put it in park turn the key all the way off and then restart,runs fine till the next stall which might be in a few minutes,hours or the next day!! very frustrated and don't feel safe at all!!about 3000 dollars of work has been done and still stalls. Next thing to do jeep tech says replace wiring harness 2000 dollars..haven't done that yet hopefully something else can be done!!! pcm and plugs have been replace by jeep tech's among other things tried and it still stalls!
While driving or parked with engine running all dash warning lights flash on and off any interior lights that are on turn off, radio turns off and heater/ac and fan turn off for a couple seconds then turn back on. Usually the check engine light will then stay on for a few more cycles. Engine, power steering and brakes and head lights all continue to work throughout the cycle. This will happen numerous times in one day or go for a month without doing it at all.

I received a safety recall notice from chrysler (p41 / nhtsa 14v-438) in *july 2014 regarding my 2007 jeep grand cherokee. I took my car into the dealer (stephen wade auto, saint george,utah) and was told the part was not available and they would contact me when they had news.i called stephen wade one year later in *july 2015*. They said the part was still not available and they would call me.today ( oct. 13, 2015 )i received another safety recall notice but this time it is from fiat chrysler for exactly the same recall as i receivedjuly 2014. I decided to contact you / nhtsa.i don't want the utah highway patrol to be picking me up with a blotter on the interstate 15 when i go air born because someone can't supply a replacement ignition switch.this has definitely put a cramp on my ability to visit the grandson because he's 350 miles away andi'm really not pleased how this is being handled by???? if you need copies / photos of my notices, please contact meand i'll gladly upload them to you.should i contact a lawyer ?thank you for your time.

Black plastic connector that connects yellow wire to starter solenoid comes loose and/or gets dirty or corroded causing it not to make contact and the vehicle will sometimes not start. I've have seen on various online forums with people having this exact same problem. Dealerships always want to replace starter and other parts when it is simply this poor connection that's the problem.chrysler denies it's a problem and dealer mechanics will not put on a better connector. They just like to keep charging people for new starters and other parts when they don't need them.this loose connection also could also cause a fire, it is an obvious flaw in design and a fire could cause serious injury or death to someone that doesn't realize the connection is bad.

Was driving and vehicle would no longer switch gears from first to second. I was on freeway in construction area that was down to one lane and could not pull over for approximately ten miles. Not happy at all since the vehicle (2007jeep grand cherokee) has relatively low miles for a power train problem. My car is currently in the shop, but research shows this is a common problem with my model and a dangerous and expensive one at that. How is this not a recall?

2007 jeep 5.7l. Car stalls on acceleration from stops. Intermittent. Mostly when air is on. 80 degrees and up. Mostly after car has been driven, then parked a few minutes then then accelerated. So dangerous. Have replaced plugs and wires, oil, crankshaft position sensor,asd relay fuse. Now what? spent now $ 2000 on fixes. Dealer can't solve it. I read others with same car have the same. Code b2185 is showing. Chrysler should be sued for knowing the cause and not fixing it due to the cost. I want to join the class action suit while i and my family are still alive!

Was pulling from a stop sign when the vehicle suddenly shifted to fourth gear without touching shift left lever causing the vehicle to accelerate very slow and was almost hit by cross traffic because i could not get out of the way, luckily they swerved around me. I have read multiple complaints of same problem with shifting out of control. It must be a manufacturer defect. If it had not been for an alert driver the situation might have turned out differently for my family and i. Jeep needs to remedy this problem before somebody is killed.

I was driving on route 50 going 65mph. This vehicle is a quad 4x4 automatic / stick shift manual, which was in my favor. When i realized the vehicle was shutting down i had to think quickly what my next steps would be. I started to get over to the right side of the road and brake, because the vehicle was shutting down the power brakes where going out and i could not brake completely. The vehicle was still moving and i was about 200 yards away from my exit and the side of the road was winding around toward the off ramp and getting smaller for me to drive on. I realized that i was not able stop the vehicle by using the floor brake then the fear factor set in. In my mind the only thing i can do is pull the stick shift handbrake and quickly put the vehicle in park then i was able to get control and safely stop the vehicle.this ordeal happened at 4:20pm yesterday and by the time we towed the vehicle back to the dealership and tried to explain to the general sales manager, si faige, on site at darcars in new carrollton, md what all transpired on the road in the unsafe vehicle that they sold us, he didn't want to hear any of it.

I write this only because i just experience my fourth mechanical breakdown in three years.in december 2009, i experienced the first breakdown in what has become a string of malfunctions.the transmission on my 2007 grand cherokee laredo gave out at about 40,000 miles.when trying to start the vehicle, i got a 'transmission overheat' message on the dash display along with the engine malfunction indicator.i took it to the dealership where i purchased it andit took nearly a month for the repair shop to locate, receive and install the necessary parts.apparently supply and demand had something to do with it, indicating to me that this was an issue nationwide.a month later, another malfunction, this time, the electronic shift module (esm) had died.just over a year later, the same component (esm) died again (of course just out of warranty), this time while i was driving along rt. 50 outside of dc.now, less than six months later, with less than 40,000 on the already replaced transmission, my transmission has blown again - same 'transmission overheat' message, same engine malfunction light, same undrivability.clearly from seeing the comments on this forum as well as other reputable sites such as edmunds and consumer reports, the 2007 grand cherokee laredo has a long, long history of mechanical and electronic problems.i have a phone call scheduled with a case worker scheduled for tomorrow, 7/13/2012.they'll either make it right or i'll be taking my story to small claims court.i encourage everyone who's had issues with this model to do the same.

I purchased my jeep a little over a year ago used. I have had numerous problems since i have purchased it. First it was thought to be an electrical problem since the car would randomly shutter, would not want to start or just turned off. Battery was replaced multiple times, since it would leave stranded at any given time. The engine light comes on, but there has not been a solution to what it can be. I feel very unsafe in my car, and i am not sure what to do at this point. When i turn the car on, there is a loud hum or propelling sound coming out of the engine. When i come to a stop you can feel the car shake when the noise happens.

The solution suggested by our normal mechanic (who is very good and has serviced the car for years) was to replace the alternator and then it was noted the battery was bad. It was replaced since it was three years old. After the repair the car started to die intermittently while being driven. The car was taken back to the mechanic who check the diagnostics and said it appeared to be pointing to the ignition switch (based on their diagnostic flowchart). The mechanics service technician was able to duplicate the stalling in the vehicle when he drove it. Suggested we take back to the dealer who had replaced the ignition switch tumblers during the recall for this vehicle last november. The dealer wanted a $85 diagnostic fee to just check the switch. We received a download of the diagnostic codes which appear to be related to multiple failures of ignition modules but the dealer reported his service technician had not been able to duplicate the failure.he thought it might be the tipm but was sure it was not the switch.he was unable to tell us what the failure was and said we would have to pay for more diagnostics if he was to find out what exactly it was. I took it back to my mechanic who replaced alternator.however, as i was driving the car last saturday it died after we stopped at a railroad crossing waiting on a train and then tried to cross the tracks after the arms had gone up.the crossing t-bones into another road and a very deep bar ditch at the side of that road. The crossing was a steep incline.almost put car in ditch.my wife would not have been able to control and stop it as i barely was able to.after reviewing other similar complaints i now believe it is the tipm.this is safety related since all safety equipment is tied to this.

Upon acceleration from stop vehicle will hesitate and lose power.this constitutes a hazard to vehicle and any approaching vehicles during a turn.inspection indicates that transmission electronic control module is at fault along with a possible transmission sensor failure.the check engine light will come on.both of these conditions ( power and check engine ) are intermittent, indicating that the module is faulty.there have been many complaints about the transmission ecm on these vehicles.the other complaints have varying symptoms but all go back to the transmission ecm.these unit should be recalled and repaired or replaced at manufacturers cost.this problem exists in many different models and years of vehicles, but always go back to this ecm unit.after investigating this problem i don't feel that the consumer is at fault or causing this to occur.chrysler modules are and have been faulty in the past.anecdotal evidence says that other modules in chrysler vehicles have had problems too.please investigate the chrysler transmission ecm's and have them recalled.

My jeep has experienced three electrical failures which have occurred approximately 6 months apart. For some unknown reason the battery died overnight each time. The second time it happened i purchase a new battery but six months later it drained too. I was able to successfully jump-start the vehicle after each incident. Transmission----i haven't been able to down-shift from drive to a lower gear. This problem began at about 46000 miles. I took it to a repair shop where they diagnosed the problem as defective shifter control. Before i had it repaired (est. $1000) it began functioning normally, that is, until today. I left a parking lot and merged into traffic. Fortunately traffic was light because i couldn't get the jeep to go any faster than 28 mph. It seemed like the transmission was stuck in first. Also the engine light came on. This is a very serious situation that should not be ignored by the chrysler corp. Or the national highway traffic safety adm..

I am still waiting the recall notice from chrysler for the ignition switch for our grand jeep cherokee 2007since middle of next year. Their customer service still repeat that we will receive the recall as soon parts will be available. Considering that this company still produce new car they should give priority to fix the older ones before somebody get hurt or die. How long by law we have to wait for ????if somebody replay will be greatly appreciate .thanks[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Vehicle has lost power while driving. You will be crusing along or pulling out into an intersection and you will loose all power. The engine will not rev, no response at all. After waiting for a perion of time, the vehicle starts going again. This happened to me four times, once in the middle of an intersection, four lanes in all directions, and the vehicle just lost all power. Very scary. I took the vehicle to my local garage, and he told me that this was the second jeep to do the same thing. The owner had to have the vehicle towed into the garage, and upon arrival, could find nothing wrong. I had to go to an authorized jeep dealer, and i asked them if they ever heard of this happening, and the reply was, just 3 or 4 times....imaging if this failure happened this often in this small area, how many other vehicles may be having the same problem. The vehicle only had 31000 miles on it, but it was out of warranty for time by 9 months. This is a very dangerous event when you are driving and suddenly loose all power and don't know if or when it is coming back. Chrysler said they do not have a problem. I don't believe them.
In may 2008, 15308 mi on jeep, slowing for red light, dies, all dash lights com on, no power to steer, no wipers, etc.; starts back on it's own. Took to dealer, no code, no re-act; has happened intermittent since-safety issue in traffic. Now tranny problem, started sept. 2010, 37,600 mi, code 750, changed solenoid pk in tranny, now code for low pressure send circuit, drives a few miles then goes and stays in 4th gear;3 months and still not drivable. Need recall for esm and tbs before someone gets killed. Chrysler should stand behind their products & be responsible for design and components. This is very disheartening since both my husband and i own a small biz and are struggling just to keep the doors open and now add the expense of diagnosing chrysler's problem is just too much! i warranty my work, wear & tear considered, as should chrysler before someone is hurt or worse- dies trying to get to out of traffic.

For over a year now, i have been receiving notices about a jeep safety recall and i have called several different states seeking the ignition switch and no one has it.i have recently experiences two separate driving occasions where i've completely lost engine power and power steering assist; it's really scaring me and i don't feel safe in the vehicle, especially with two small children in tow as this is my family car.the consumer referenced recall # 14v438000. Updated 03/10/16.
When stopped at a stop light on a very congested road.i pressed the accelerator to proceed when the light turned green.i experienced a slow sluggish start so i pressed the accelerator further to the floorboard, there was no response by the engine.car proceeded at a slow rate of speed (10 mph with rpm's at 2500).i had to pull off to the side of the road and restart car which did somewhat fix the problem.i have experienced this numerous times now, usually occurs when the car is shifting in 1st and 2nd gear.my concern is when i pull into a right of way and the car does not properly accelerate i put myself and passengers at a safety risk of being collided in the rear of my car by another car.
There are no brake or tail lights or brake lights when it is dark,everything works in the day light, very dangerous to drive without any lights in rear of car.

I received a recall notice from jeep chrysler in july of 2014 stating a defect within the ignition switch but jeep didn't have the part available to fix the problem. It has now been 8 months and jeep still does not have the part to repair the defect. This could cause an accident and i keep contacting jeep and they keep saying....we don't have the part, we'll let you know when we do. That is unacceptable as the issue could cause an accident and it has been 8 months and they still don't know when the part will be available. I believe chrysler is acting criminally and i would like them to either fix my vehicle so it is safe to drive or reimburse me for the car so i can purchase a vehicle that is safe.

While driving my 2007 jeep grand cherokee, i experienced a random loss of dashboard lighting, gauges and heater. Have seen multiple post pertaining to exact same issue with many different solution suggestions. Common belief is that best solution is to replace ignition switch (ironically same issue that has been recently recalled by chrysler, but not yet fixed via many dealership's services despite several notices that they are aware of the issue.) seems very irresponsible for manufacturers /dealers service to allow this risky defect to continue to occur for years without a common formal resolution for dealerships to adhere to. Consumers are left to scramble as best they are comfortable with to resolve while some dealer service centers and mechanics take advantage of these people by overcharging them for fixes that don't resolve the true problem. Please push this issue to common resolution as many consumers seem to be bother literally and figuratively in the dark as to the correct direction!
Already the subject of a chrysler recall # p41/nhtsa 14v-438 ignition switchreceived recall notice 9-18-14 but no part available to fix per letter. Visited local jeep dealer today (3-19-2015), stillno part.in fact "0" vehicles have been fixed bychrysler. Thisis not good.somebody is going to get killed. The car will suddenly light up every light on the instrument cluster, there will be a relay clickingon of on off sound behind theinstrument cluster andthe car will shut off while rolling. Has happened several unexpected times, low speed and highway speed. Very scary and unsafe. Suggest chrysler, now that this is a verified defect, immediately requisition parts and get owners into the service departments now -if not sooner!!! six months is waytoo long for a simple part.

In august of 2009 my wife experienced her jeep cherokee die out in the middle of traffic.i met her at the scene.the car started immediately and was drivable with no subsequent occurrences that day.we took it to jack phalen dodge in countryside, il for service to see if they could determine the cause.on august 31 we picked up the vehicle and it checked out completely, they were unable to duplicate the concern.twice since august we experienced the same concern, the car died out in traffic.both times we were able to start the car without any issues and continue.on saturday, march 6 we drove to downtown chicago.on this day we initial drove over 20 miles to get into the city, however once we were there the car began to die.this time we experienced it dying out at least 10 times.once, on i-55 with traffic moving at expressway speeds.having lost confidence that we would be able to continue safely we called for a tow.we took it back to jack phalen for review.we picked up the car on monday, march 8.again we were told that nothing was wrong mechanically with the auto.however, they noted that there was a "star case for loss of throttle response #k34511542" which responded to "software updates".they installed 5 software updates.we received no guarantee that this would fix the issue nor would they guarantee that future occurrences would be covered under our warranty, which expires in april 2010.we are obviously concerned that dated software could potentially result in a car losing all power in traffic and the dangers that would pose.i have filed a complaint with chrysler.this obviously seems like it could potentially present a very dangerous situation.

Purchased 2007 jeep grand cherokee overland 5.7 on 11/30/2012. On 12/04/2012 i experienced stalling while decelerating to stop for a stop light, then the vehicle stalled showing code p0884. The vehicle started right back up when i turned the key with no signs of hesitation. Ever since that day, my vehicle stalls on average about 8-10 times per week depending on how often i use the vehicle. It stalls mainly during idle or coming to a stop and the most frightening stall i have experienced was when i was traveling at 60mph on a major highway and the vehicle completely stalled, and instantly restarted itself. Both times i experienced stalling at high speed was when i was doing about 60mph and both times the vehicle restarted itself on its own. But every time the vehicle stalls, i loose all power including power steering which worries me very much. Apparently i am not the only 2007 jeep grand cherokee overland with the 5.7 motor owner experiencing this problem.i am one of the hundreds on owners involved in a group discussion on jeepforum.com where we discuss this problem and steps that jeep, private mechanics, and/or owners themselves have taken to correct this stalling problem.this problem has been going on for years and no one seems to have a solution.loss of power at 60mph is a very big issue and i worry that someone can be very hurt or killed by loss of power steering during stalling.i hope this issue raises concerns for my vehicle and i would be more than willing to allow someone from the nhtsa come and test drive my vehicle to experience what i and hundreds, possibly thousands of others are experiencing. Thank you very much and if you should have any questions in regards to this problem, please do not hesitate to contact me any time.

It usually takes a good 10 to 15 minutes to start sometimes then when i do get it started i have the same issues that i have read about on this website and many other websites. The car will not go over 20 miles per hour and you have to pull off the road, turn off the vehicle, wait and turn it back on. It is almost like the jeep has to be reset. I have talked with several people and had the codes ran. It keeps coming up that it is the solenoid and starter. I have read on many blogs about the same issue that the solenoid wires are not protected from rain water in this vehicle and it causes them to corrode or go bad all together. This is an issue that needs to be recalled. If they know that the wires are not protected from rain water then there needs to be some type of protection that they can put over them or install a different kind of wire. This is costing people hundreds of dollars to repair something that should have never been an issue. Also this is a safety hazard because when we pull out on the road we expect our vehicle to excel properly and go over 20 miles per hour.

The jeep has electrical stuff happening sporadically and does not start but with power but after 3 to 6 attempts starts right up. I turn key all power and bells go off and it makes a humming noise and 1 click noise dash says' transmission over temp' the jeep is cold so not over temperature.i've seen a lot of post about recall and also about ignition switch or module. I've only owned for 2 years and dealer said car had no recalls when i purchased.this happens stationary and also after driving about 20 minutes to destination and when i went to leave it took several times before starting. This has been going on for last 3 days but few messages randomly popped in information center few times before this had at dealer on computer no codes said it was okay
Soon after the p41 ignition switch recall, while driving 1 mile,the instrument cluster gauges stopped working-speedo, gas, etc , all warning lights illuminated . Information messages in the ic noted"servicerequired : and transmission -over the temperature allowedu1403,u1411,u110e, u110fand others all implausible signals to ic. While driving transmission an road speed decreased immediatelywhile at speed and engine and transmissionto not operate in a predictably safe operation. These are the symptoms that the recall was to repair.what is the next step?
The vehicle shuts down without any warning while driving. Extremely dangerous!! it's the second time it happened in the last 6 years, and it seems to happen when it is cold outside. (in freezing temperature). Luckily, no one was around when the problems occurred, but if it had happened in a crowded area, an accident is imminent. Exactly the same symptom as what was reported under nhtsa id number: 10555411 (this is a complaint filed on 12/10/2013). In one other instance when my wife was driving the vehicle at about 45 mph, it felt like the vehicle shifted in the first gear suddenly. When she looked at the speedometer area, all of the "prndl" signs were selected. (of course she did not touch the shifter in any way...) she subsequently restarted the vehicle and the problem went away. I'm surprised no recall is issued for this. Finally, i brought the vehicle to the dealer, but they had no clue how to fix the problem. Of course!
I was driving my 2007 grand cherokee overland 5.7l hemi and the truck just cuts off with no warning and then all the warning lights came on and car stopped in the middle of the road during morning rush hour traffic.car restarted after a few tries and the key was removed from the ignition.as i see this is an on going issue with the 5.7l hemi jeep grand cherokee overland's and there has been no resolution to this problem.it can cause a major accident and a huge lawsuit against jeep.this should be seriously looked into an a recall should be done for all the other jeep owners that have this same problem all over the untied states.

Its happened on 5 different occasions after and every instance i have taken it to the dealership with no resolution nor a diagnosis.

This problem has occurred almost every day for two months.i will describe one incident, which occurred this evening around 11pm. I was driving on the highway in my 2007 jeep grand cherokee when my accelerator stopped having any effect on my car.all of the gauges died (so the fuel reported empty, the speedometer said i was not moving, etc)- all of this while traveling at 65mph.i had to pull over, turn the car off and back on, and all of the problems went away.as i've said, this has happened once a day for the past two months.so far there appears to be no fix for the problem.

The following events happened over a period of 2weeks.when in motion on highway, instrument panel lost power, then came back on and all control panel lights lit up, then went off. While in motion on highway, instrument panel went blank--cycled on and off several times then returned to normal.when engine was off, ignition was off and key was out of ignition, lights were turned off, headlights turned on and off twice for no reason.while driving on highway on slight incline, engine lost power for a few seconds then returned to normal.vehicle has been to a certified jeep repair shop and they could not find the problem.(see attached)
Received a safety recall notice some time last year 2014. Called and no one was of much assistance. Said the parts were not available.they asked for my email and i never received any correspondence back. Took the jeep to the dealer as the safety recall letter stated and they said they could not help me out. No accidents yet but i am very concerned for my safety. My tps light stays on constantly. I get my tires checked frequently to fix the issue and everytime i go, i am told my tires are fine. As i was driving, all abs and traction lights go off, making it very difficult to brake safely. I was told my serpentine belt had to be replaced. I had this issue fixed last year, and it was not inexpensive. It has been less than a year and already the problem shows up again. I feel very unsafe driving and i feel this is a recall issue that needs to be addressed. I would appreciate it if someone would contact me regarding this problem and help me out so that i can feel safe while driving.

Vehicle just randomly stalls, shuts off as if the key was turned off and on quickly.sometimes this happens when driving at highway speeds or when going slow around a turn or making any turns, this is very dangerous because of the loss of power steering and its very difficult to steer when it stalls.this will also happen when idling in park or when sitting at stoplights.
While driving the vehicle, had a sudden lose of ability to accelerate, no throttle response, no rpms on the tach, and every gear indicator was illuminated as if in all gears at the same time (park, reverse, neutral, drive). Dealership says its part # 52124137ac that needs to be replaced, and is not covered under any power train warranty, at a cost of $817.00. This problem happened 4 times before i was able to get it in to the local dealership, never on the highway, if it had happened on the highway, im sure i would have been taking a chance with my life.

I would be driving down the road and my jeep will shut off all by itself and then turn back on all while driving down the expressway doing 75mph my steering wheel and lights and breaks would all lock up then the jeep would just pop back on and then the rpm's would be really high so i would have to hit the breaks to slow way down so my jeep wouldn't blow up on me . I've taken it to like 5 mechanics and they can not figure what's wrong with it . Then also i can get in my jeep and start it and my radio and backup camera won't work and some of my gages wouldn't register when i start it ups don't start going down the road so i will have to pull over shut my jeep off and pull the key out and open the door to make sure everything is off then put the key can in and restart it and sometimes it will work and sometimes i will have to do it a few times to get it to work .

I have waited over 2 years for a recall on my ignition switch. P41/nthtsa 14v-438. I want t o know when i can expect this corrected? i have called the local dealerships every 3 months to hear " we are still waiting for the parts".
I have submitted a complaint before but the problem continues and has gotten worse. My jeep loses all electrical power and shuts down and restarts itself while driving, occasionally doesn't accelerate past second gear and other times accelerates very slowly, numerous times dealership told me nothing was wrong, finally they replaced clockspring and motherboard but problem began recurring only days later. Only now my jeep is additionally at times acting like it wants to shut down but instead is just faltering shaking the whole vehicle violently accompanied by the struggling to accelerate.

Iam having a problem with my 2007 jeep grand cherokee starting it's not the battery all lights radio and heat work but car will not start i have looked up the problem and hundreds of other jeep owners are having the same problem and still no recall why????? obviously not owners fault
Jeep is having electrical issues. It will randomly go into limp mode at start, but turning it off and restarting it fixes that issue. It's done this three times in the 2 years we have had it. I am now having an electrical issue where something is causing a draw on the battery while the vehicle is turned off. I have had to replace the alternator, starter, and now the battery.it is causing the battery to swell, and the jeep is having to be jumped to start multiple times a week. The battery was put on a deep charge, and it had to be jumped the next day. Also the air conditioning back lighting goes off and on when you turn the knobs or adjust the fan speed while both driving and stationary. This has been going on for roughly a month.

While driving down the highway at 65 with the headlights on all of my dash lights lit up and there was no power for a few seconds. This is the first time it has happened since purchasing this vehicle. I have no been able to take my jeep into the shop since i was already at work. I contacted the dealer and they said they have had complaints like this and that they would not be able to read the fault.
I had gotten up to take a ride to the store and the day before i didn't see any smoke. But before i made it to my stop sign there was smoke rolling at my driver door so i rushed back to the house and couldn't even open my door. By this time flames where coming out the driver door and i tried putting it out after i called the fire department with a bucket of water because the water hose wouldn't reach and the fire department wouldn't be in a rush. So my whole [xxx] car caught on fire a week ago from a electric problem. Now i'm screwed.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

2007 (pre and post) have rear tail light assembles that work intermittently. Jeep replaces(for approximately$200) broken taillight assemblies with new units having the same defect. Their design happens to fail around the 30,000 mile point (by intention?).jeep will not return broken parts when requested for inspection (they don't want these reaching your office).light bulbs are not the issue.this known jeep defect keeping their assembly line running at the expense/risk to jeep occupants or any vehicle following a full size jeep. Plus they are making money while endangering others. Do the statistics of jeepsshow they are rear-ended more often?how convenient if this is the case and the evidence is damaged in the accident. Look on-line for the dialog or just look at jeeps on the road and you'll see a brake or tail light out in a much higher percentage than any other vehicle. I notice an after market light assembly was recalled (std. 108), no amber light.how about a recall for a light that may or may not work at any given moment? which is worse?

Jeep would not start "transmission temp" would come up on dash. Took to dealer replaced starter. Week later same problem. Went back to jeep dealer they deemed it to be engine harness.one year later on any given day "transmission temp" will come up on dash with the jeep sputtering to start. Turn off then start. So far three time since repairs it has done this.

I bought this jeep on 9/20/2013. The truck is equipped with the 5.7 l hemi engine. Over the first 50 days and 1,157 miles of ownership i have encountered 18 episodes of the vehicle stalling, with 14 of those stalls occurring on major highways in traffic. The stalls occur with no warning. The vehicle immediately decelerates to a stop and i am left with no power, no steering and no brakes. One dealership blamed it on a bad battery. The dealership which sold me the jeep diagnosed the problem as a m.a.p. Sensor, which they replaced. That did not correct the problem as the stalling problem continues to occur. The most recent was on 11/9/2013 while driving in the center lane of the pa turnpike at 65 mph. The jeep stalled and came to a stop, with a semi tractor-trailer behind me. I have no idea how that truck driver was able to swerve in time to miss me. Mechanics and on-line forums identify possible causes for the stalling as 1. A defective (ecm) electronic control modules; 2. Shorts in the wiring harness; 3. Sparks plugs; 4. Egr valve; 5. Ignition coil; 6. Pcv valve; 7. Transmission solenoid pack. There are no diagnostic codes stored in the obd-ii system. One school of thought is that 2007 jeep grand cherokee and commanders equipped with the 5.7 l hemi engine are extremely sensitive to radio frequency interference from the waste spark on the coil. As other complaints have noted, this is an obvious and persistent problem with jeeps equipped with the hemi engine, and chrysler has turned a deaf ear to the complaints. Perhaps they are waiting for the fatalities to occur. Why nhtsa hasn't done more to order a recall is beyond my comprehension. The problem has been reported on for years with no action taken by chrysler. This jeep is, for lack of a better word, a deathtrap. At best it cannot be trusted, it is unsafe and unreliable. At worst it is an accident waiting to happen!

My daughter was just driving her 2007 jeep grand cherokee and the engine cut out while driving about 70 for about 10 seconds she lost head lights brakes ect. The car then turned back on automatically before she stopped and the esp, abs, bac,traction control lights came on. This is so dangerous and seems to be s common problem.is there a recall?if not shouldn't there be?my husband already replaced the ignition switch regulatorabout two months ago because the lights were going on and off.that repair seemed to have fixed the issue.the serpentine belt is also squeakinglike crazy.it has been. Replaced twice.first with an inexpensive belt then with a certified belt.
I took ownership of the vehicle in december 2013. While driving, the vehicle engine has suddenly shut down on three separate occasions. The first time was in january 2014 in heavy highway traffic near colorado springs at about 50mph.i was able to move to the shoulder and turned the key off then restarted the engine. There seemed to be no adverse effects thereafter so i thought it was a random event. Then one week later driving on a lightly trafficked highway in wy at about 60mph, with the cruise control engaged, the engine again suddenly shut down and again i was able to steer to the shoulder and switched the ignition off and then restart it.when i returned home i had my local mechanic check the vehicle over and had him check the computer for faults.after the checkup i thought the issue was settled.then in march driving down a winding mountain road near boise id the engine again suddenly shut down and i steered to the road side where i switched the ignition off and then restarted it. There after i read about this issue concerning some jeep models. I put my vin number in the jeep website and it said there were no recalls for it. I will take it to the dealer in hopes there is a resolution for this seemingly chronic serious problem.
While accelerating the vehicle lost power and the prndl lights all illuminated.after a few seconds power resumed.this has happened several times and the check engine light has come on.we have been told its error code u0404 and the electronic shift module needs to be replaced.it appears this is a very common occurrence for this year vehicle.it is a safety concern because if it happened during high traffic times it could certainly cause an accident.

My 2007 jeep grand cherokee continues to stall (total loss of all electrical) when driving.generally this happens when i am coasting.i have taken my jeep to the dealership twice after repeatedly having this happen, but the dealership cannot get the problem to duplicate itself.i see now this stalling problem is happening on other model jeeps, something the dealership did not bother to mention.i am very concerned the problem is going to lead to an accident.
09/29/2008 jeep taken to garage for head light failure nothing found. 03/09/2012 to 11/07/2012 all indicator light flash exterior lights flash. Been to the dealership three times for numerous days at a time they can not find anything wrong still having this problem. Really not good when it is dark out and you don't have headlights. At 15,000 and 35,000 i had to have the shift modular replaced because all the car would basically go in to neutral when being driven.i would have to pull over and turn the car off and restart it.the first time it was at the dealership for three days they could not find a problem and sent it home only to have to return 2 days later with the same problem. As i have found many people on line with these same issues makes you wonder first why these issues can't seem to be fixed, second why there has not been a recall.it is truly a miracle that no one i have heard of has been injured or killed because of these defects.when the jeep is working i love it. If i had a hope and a pray of getting a new vehicle i would trade in my paid off jeep in a heart beat so that i wouldn't have to constantly worry that it stop running or that i will be driving blind in the dark.sadly i didn't even touch on the other electrical issues i.e. Window that had to be fixed remote keyless issues it is sad that the company doesn't do anything about these things this will be my last jeep. I feel that these problems are dangerous for me, my family and anyone that is on the road with me and other jeep owner with the same issues.

While driving all electrical power to the vehicle shut down.the engine was still running.this happened during a turn, while the roads were a little icy.this locked the wheels.the power came back on shortly, but had it not the vehicle (with locked wheels) would have slid off the road and into the ditch.we have also been waiting for the ignition switch recall part to be in for over 4 months!this is ridiculous!this is going to cause an injury or a death.i have 2 small children and you can bet if it happens with my children in the vehicle and they get hurt i will sue chyrsler.to have a recall due to something dangerous and then not have enough parts to replace is unacceptable!!
I purchased this vehicle on december 14, 2011. About three weeks later in a parking lot, we noticed the vehicle would not accelerate even though the accelerator pedal was pushed virtually all the way down. A few days later the engine warning light came on. Then the lack of acceleration happened on the interstate. My mechanic cleared the engine warning light but it came back on a few days later.i did a lot of research and it appears this is a common problem on jeep vehicles. The problem is a failure of the electronic shift module. It if very expensive to have replaced. My local dealership charged me $924 plus tax. As many comments as i have seen on this and the fact that lack of acceleration is a safety issue, jeep should not hesitate in issuing a recall.
This is a continuing issue.the speed will suddenly decrease to 30 miles per hour without any action on drivers part.this is dangerous, especially on busy roads.we were told it was the front control module but after reading reviews it doesn't solve the problem.chrysler should be held responsible to identify the problem, then issue a recall.they are not interested in doing anything. We bailed them out?

I am having issues with the recalled ignition switch in my jeep grand cherokee.the recall number is p41. While i am driving the entire dash lights up with every possible warning light possible.my gauges stop working and the lights flash on and off.sometimes my check engine light will stay on for a day after this happens.it is really scary.the first time it happened was in may and it only did it maybe 5 times from may through july.at the end of july it started happening a few times a week.in september we received the recall notice. I took the car into jeep toverify that the problem is the ignition switch...and it is.i don't have the money to temporarily fix it until the part comes in.meanwhile i feel unsafe driving my car.i've called the corporate office and they treat me horrible and don't care.the customer service reps have no information and tell me to wait for the next postcard.i'm really frustrated and don't feel like this company cares at all.the recall notice "says" they care about my safety but they sure don't show it.meanwhile i have to drive a car with my child in it that feels unsafe.it has now been 6 months since the recall notice was sent to me and they still haven't fixed the issue.how is jeep not held accountable?i feel like i have no options and nobody cares.

The truck is a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. Once again as i was driving my vehicle shut down (jerked real hard) and i lost all driving capability etc power steering, speed control. . . . . I was driving on the freeway when my jeep shut down it was during morning rush hour traffic. It was hard for me to glide over to the shoulder when everyone around you is going 60 mph and you have no power steering. When i was able to get to the shoulder i placed the jeep in park and turned the vehicle off and removed the key and put the key back in and it started right up. This has been happening everyday now and why searching the internet i've ran across on here and elsewhere that i am not the only one having problems like this with my year and make. It is really dangerous and im surprised there hasn't been a recall yet or a terrible possible fatal accident due to the vehicle being non responsive in fast heavy traffic. This engine shut off without warning.i've noticed this happens when it is real cold outside.

As i was driving the truck jerked real hard which almost knocked the wind out of me and i lost control of steering, speed, i was unable to start thetruck.i had to make my way to the shoulder in morning traffic on the highway to put the car in park and turn the ignition off and start it over again i had to do this 2 times before it started. Proceeded to get back into traffic and it jerked again this time it stopped running and startedclicking all by itself until i stopped the truck and turned it off and started it again.this is not the first time this has happened and it very dangerous and from the looks of things this is a ongoing problem with this model & year jeep.

Fortunately there has not as yet been an incident. However, 8 months to repair an ignition switch is totally unacceptable and the manufacturer says that a remedy is not yet available.i am not looking forward to driving down the highway at 70 mph and have my steering and brakes suddenly stop working due to a faulty ignition switch! i want to know when the nhtsa is going to do something about this recall.

First my rear window light would come on during cold weather and would stay on this happened at 35,000 miles. Then my directional stopped working had fixed it had something to do with inside the steering column. This happened at 82,000 miles. Then a few weeks later drove myself to the drs when i came out my jeep wouldn't start. All the interior lights,radio,directional, windows worked but when i turn it on i hear a click then nothing else. Car wont turn over at all. I waited about an hour of trying before it decided to work and turn over. I then proceeded to drive 5 min stopped at a gas station for gas, when i shut it off and tried turning back on same thing happened. I waited about 45 min before it would start back up. Then no problems for 5 days. Now again its doing the same thing except i left it over night and it still wont start. I called chrysler after looking online and seeing a lot of people with complaints that were the same as mine except these people spent thousands trying to fix and replace everything yet still no luck they continue having this problem. So this is a very well known problem with jeep and even after bringing to jeep dealer and having a diagnostics done with no problems showing up. They don't know what's wrong suggested replacing wires, starter, something in the steering column, and some module. I don't want to dump tons of money in it like everyone else just to have the same problem. Chrysler apologized and said there is no recall for my vehicle. I stated it is a known problem and there should be. She then went on to say i should have it towed back to jeep for another diagnostic. It works when it wants to work and has left me and my 4 yr old stranded. It seems like anytime there's a problem with my jeep and everyone else's its always during cold winter months. Frustrated and stranded.

Been having starting issues for at least 6 months. It starts sometimes and other times have to wait a few hours to a few days. The last 2 days won't start at all and has drained my less then a year old battery. 3 weeks ago windows will roll down or up whenever they want. Doors lock and unlock at random. I believed my car is possessed. Reading more and more i realized my tipm is bad. I have learned with all the random things with this jeep that i will never buy one again. It is a very dangerous car and too many issues, with no resolution other then i have to empty every pocket to fix it. It stalls when driving it shifts into all gears slows me down when i'm on highway at a very unsafe speed. It is unreliable and i put my life my kids and others at risk while driving. Sadly, i believe jeep doesn't care about safety since there is 1000's of complaints with same issues. It also says my air bags won't work because the tipm is bad.

While driving at approx. 45 mph all the indicator/warning lights on the dash started flashing repeatedly.this lasted approx. 5-10 seconds then stopped.this same issue happened a couple months prior.i believe this problem is caused by a faulty ignition switch.i received a recall notice over 1 year ago for this switch but no dealer has parts available to fix the recall. The recall states that this faulty switch; "may result in loss of engine power, power steering, and braking assist increasing the risk of a crash and disabling one or more of the vehicle's safety features including the frontal airbags."i need this repaired asap before my wife or small children are hurt!please help.

With vehicle parked and the ignition off, i would try to start the car.when i would turn the key, nothing would happen, no sound as if the car was trying to start, not even a tic tic tic.i also noticed that the break pedal would not depress.the first few times i called aaa, but they couldn't start it and had to tow it to a garage.this has happened to me at least seven times leaving me stranded at night in the winter alone along a dark country road.it has happened at the grocery store in the summer when i already loaded all of my groceries into the car, and at my cabin which is over an hour from where i live.i am in my late 60's and walk with a cane so it truly has become a safety issue for me.i have been in touch with corporate office for jeep and have had two cases opened with them.the problem is always something electrical.one time the dealer had my car for over a month trying to figure out the problem.they have put in a new starter several times.they have removed the remote starter installed by jeep when i bought the car, so now i can't use the remote starter i paid to have installed and then paid again to have it uninstalled.the latest they told me is that they do not have the correct part for a permanent fix.they can only replace a part with a new part of the same that will eventually fail.this last time i was told that jeep would pay the bill which they have not.i have now had to pay more to increase my aaa coverage for distance towing since i have been left stranded at my cabin two times.i have also had to pay to rent a car while jeep worked on my vehicle.in addition, there is a safety recall on the ignition switch which the dealer has not repaired within a reasonable amount of time.the date below is just the most recent event.there have been at least 7 similar events.

Bought used 2007 grand cherokee from adams jeep, aberdeen md in nov. 2009. Within first month, while traveling around 30 mph, car would not accelerate when pushing on gas pedal despite engine racing. Prnd lights all lit up. Took car back to dealer and bezel gear selector replaced after paying $100 deductible on extended warranty. Same problem occurred 5 months later. Dealer charged me for electronic control module updates. One month later, same problem occurred, dealer replaced bezel gear selector again. One month later, same exact problem occurred. This is 4th time taking car in for lack of acceleration while pushing on gas pedal. Dealer states unable to fix problem since they cannot reproduce it. This is a huge safety problem as i have almost been hit multiple times when my car fails to accelerate when pushing on gas pedal.chrysler needs to recall the shifter module in these cars before someone gets killed.
Vehicle shuts off when going down the road and when starting it is in continuous turn over and not starting
While vehicle is in motion a front dashboard lights would flash for a while and suddenly goes dark including head lights and brake lights. This is not in any correlation with weather, temperature or road conditions. This has been happening randomly and due to safety concern we no longer use the vehicle for a family trip and we do not use the vehicle at night since all electrical components goes off while it is in motion.per online search it appears there are numerous jeep owners experiencing the similar malfunction. This is a very serious safety issue, so why the manufacturer has not issued a recall to have this repaired?

I own a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. I received a recall on a part in july of 2014. It is now april 2015. There is still no part to replace this ignition switch problem. I have children that i need to drive to and from school. This vehicle is not safe. My husband has seen now at least 3 vehicles (same make, model and year) in car accidents. These car were completely totaled. There is no fixing them. One vehicle a car blew up because the ignition switch. This is ridiculous. Almost a year now, and there is still not part to fix this problem. And i can't sell my vehicle to anybody because then i could be sued because of the ignition switch recall. Your jeep dealerships will not buy them back for what they are worth because of the ignition switch recall. I get below value offers. I will not buy jeep again. But the fact that jeep is taking so long to fix this issue is ridiculous. When people start dying because of it, then you will be sued for those deaths because that ignition switch recall was not fixed in a decent amount of time. I figured 6 months max. Its now almost a year and again still no replacement part. I'm disgusted at the fact that nothing is being done about this. No one seems to care or realize the potential danger this ignition switch causes. I wouldn't wish this upon anyone but it may happen to you just so you open up your eyes and realize what is really going on.

On four separate occasions my jeep has randomly not started after being turned off and parked. The first time i had to have it towed to the shop and have it checked out.the mechanic could find nothing wrong: starter, alternator, battery, & electrical systems all seemed fine. The car finally started with no repair work being performed.this has happened (3) more times since august, the latest being today.there is no rhyme nor reason to how or why it happens.i have since learned of the ignition switch recall by jeep/chrysler, and it supposedly affects the year and model of my jeep.i have been told that the ignition switch recall may very well be the reason for my problem, but as of yet i have received no official recall notice for my car.when i am out driving and have to park i am now afraid to turn my car off for fear it wont start again. Likewise, i am also afraid the car is just going to turn itself off when i am driving.i called the jeep dealership closest to me and was informed that they have not been officially notified as to how the recall process is going to work for the ignition switch issue, so they are unable to do anything for me at this time. They are also unsure as to when they will receive any information.
The day after i bought the brand new 2007 jeep grand cherokee diesel, i unlocked the doors with the key fob, opened a couple of the doors and loaded my luggage, then i did the key sequence on the keyfob (lock+panic) to turn off the beep when you lock the car. After all this i tried to start it (correct starting procedure - wait for glow light to go out) and the starter cranked the engine with no firing at all. I repeat and wait 5 times over about 5 minutes, it failed to start each time. Finally after i have waited about 2 more minutes, i tried again and it fired right up like it is supposed to.i am concerned the car could fail to start again.updated 01-16-08.

In may 2007 we started having problems with the a/c and blower motor on our vehicle.i conducted research and found through tech advisory the blower control module were the problem and were being replaced.i disconnected the blower control module and could see the unit had melted around the wire harness plug.i did exactly as the tech advisory recommended and replaced the blower control module and wire harness plug.less than 70 days the exact same problem has occurred again.i pulled the blower control module out and could see the new module had once again melted around the replaced plug.i called the dealership and was told they would warranty the part and i just needed to bring the original invoice and bad melted blower control module in and they would give me a new one.i did that last night and when i was at the dealership they looked at the melted blower control module and told me because i did not replace the entire wire harness they would not replace the melted module.i inquired as to the cost to replace the entire wire harness as it required pulling out the entire dash to simply unplug the old harness and plug the new one in.i was told 8 hours of labor and cost of parts for the new harness and blower control module which was estimated at $700.00.the parts themselves are less than $200.00.when i replaced the original part i did it exactly as the tech advisory told me so which was dated sometime in may 2007.in addition to the part melting it has sank the top edge of the carpet in the passenger side floor board.i view this as an extreme safety hazard and could actually case a fire in the vehicle.the dealership advised no warranty recalls have been issued for this issue either.i think chrysler should re-examine how many of these blower control modules they have replaced and the risk they are putting the public at by not recalling them.any assistance in this matter would be appreciated.
Started vehicle and backed out of garage.drove down street approximately 100 yards when all lights (dome lights, instrument lights, headlights) flickered momentarily.this happened twice more in the course of 400-500 feet.steering and control of vehicle seemed unchanged as i turned around and drove back home.the only warning lights that remained on were the esp bas and the electronic stability program (esp)/traction control system (tcs) indicator light.service shop could not reproduce the fault, thought the problem was related to the ignition, and recommended taking the vehicle to the dealership.dealership also could not reproduce the fault.
Vehicle was stationary
On september 9 i was driving back from my grand daughter school and as i was pulling on my street, the jeep shut off without warning. I had no check engine light on or any type of warnings. I had to coast into my driveway. It doesn't start at all. It had an oil change and fluids in jeep. It did it without warning
Electrical power intermittently goes out due to faulty ignition switch. Chrysler has issued recall (p41/nhtsa 14v-438) and i immediately reported to dealer, newport chrysler dodge jeep ram, 310 w main rd, middletown, ri 02842, but continues to tell me that the part is on national back-order and cannot fix.i've called dealer for updates multiple times since july 2014 but dealer will not give me any information regarding part availability, has not fixed the issue or replaced ignition switch.please assist or advise.
While driving, the prndl had lit boxes around all the letters, and dash indicators all lit up, and jeep lost power as if stalling. It then "went" back into drive on its own. This happened over eleven times, with mileage starting at 1,186, and most recently at 52,536. Dates of repair incidents are :2/12/07, 12/31/07, 1/10/08, 9/22/08, 1/5/09, 6/9/09, 6/18/12, 10/19/12, 12/26/12, 3/8/13, 3/22/13.my jeep is a 2007, averaging 8,756 miles per year. I bought it new and i take very good care of all maintenance right away - oil changes, filters, tire rotation, etc.! each time it was brought to the dealer for "repair" , they either couldn't find the problem, or replaced : shifter module (twice), transmission wiring harness (three times) and suggested a new battery (we replaced that also), and transmission plug and seal.there were also numerous "software and anti-theft updates.in addition to these, i replaced the driver's side window regulator twice.now, theywant to replace the "transmission temp circ." and esm module - for another $1,500.00 .all this in 52,536milesand 6 years !!!i firmly believe there are serious manufacturer defects with this vehicle. My biggest concern is the safety of this jeep is unpredictable. I never know, even after all the "repairs and replacements" ,if it will suddenly lose power and i might be in danger (traffic, intersection, etc.). How in the world could chrysler deny this problem? it needs to be resolved at the source, they are responsible for the safety of their vehicles !!!! there are many reports of this same issue from numerous 2007 jeep owners - where is the recall ???!!!!
Had my low mileage/ perfectly maintained jeep in for service. They performed the n23 recall because of a faulty chip that causes the transfer case to go into neutral and roll away. A week or so after having this performed i went to lock my jeep into 4wd low and my "service 4wd" message appears. Is reading the same code everyone else with this problem is having after having the n23 recall performed. 4wd low worked flawlessly when i used it the week before taking it into the dealer. Whats funny is the service writer said "there have been a few cases the 4wd low stops working, but those cars had high mileage" when i asked him what the recall was and if anything bad had come from it.
Vehicle is unable to start after highway driving or the engine is at a certain temperature. Car can not be turned off and back on again after engine reaches certain temperature.
Esp bas light came on & dealer informed me it is a faulty clockspring.
Numerous times i've been driving and my car has lost power and i've had to restart the engine. Sometimes it takes a while for my car to start on the first turn of the key. The start gets dragged on. Sometimes all my check engine lights come on with every other lights as well. Several times i have to wait then start the car and it will turn on. Besides the car completely turning off while i'm driving, now my car won't turn on at all. The battery is fine. Radio and everything turns on. But the ignition won't click over and start my car. So, now i am with no car for work. I called chrysler headquarters for my calls recall back in september and was told they are out of the part they need. My car worked then, just very sketchy, so i was ok waiting, just extremely cautious. Now it won't even turn on, i called jeep, they said they are still waitin for the part and all i can do is wait on the list. They won't even give me a loaner since it's a recall issue and not a "service" issue. I have no car, and not the money for a new one, so now i'm at a loss.
Today while driving on a highway at approximately 35-40mph my vehicle stalled. I had come to a complete stop and was awaiting a traffic light change. When the light changed and i stepped on the accelerator the vehicle began to hesitate and jerk and the esp/bas light, malfunction indicator light (check engine) and a message stating transmission over temp came on. I was in the left lane and immediately put on my flashers. The driver behind realized that i was in trouble and put on his as well. After i was able to roll to the shoulder, i immediately turned the vehicle off. After waiting approximately 5mins, i restarted the vehicle and continued to drive slowly and carefully to my office since i was just 2 blocks from work. This experience scared me because had this happened while i was driving at the 60-65 mph rate on this very busy highway, i could have been hurt. After reading several of the other complaints, i can also relate to the complaint about the tires having had to replace a broken stem after owning the vehicle only 2 days and i currently still have water leaking into my vehicle on raining days on the passenger side and now through the lights. I drive on the highway daily and after today's stall out, i am afraid to drive this vehicle. I called the dealership today and explained my issues and told the service manager about all of the lights and he told me the car was probably cold and if the lights don't go out i can bring it in on saturday. Well today is wednesday and i will not drive that car again. Since the dealership is quite a distance from my home,i will have the car towed so that it can be checked out. I am very uncomfortable with the idea of ever driving this vehicle again. I transport children as part of my job from time to time and i could never forgive myself if something was to happen to them while we are riding in this vehicle.
I was driving down squirrel at approximately 5:40pm and going around 45-50mph when suddenly my car jerked and completely stalled and shut off. I lost all control of my car and i could not steer to go onto the grass. I immediately put my hazards on and came to a stop and restarted my car. This issue has been happening since september 1st. It has been in and out of the shop for the same issue since september 1st. It's been in and out of the shop about 10-15 times for the same issue. I have spent over $2,100 in repairs, fixes, and replacements. This issue is clearly not fixed and this is a serious safety concern. They keep releasing me a car that is completely unsafe to drive. This not only happened once, but this has happened every single time they have released me my car.
Drove from ca to az.turned jeep engine off !!! visit with son & leave trailer i had been towing. I turn ignition on put in drive never touched accelerator.jeep speed out quickly (sudden acceleration) out of driveway towards home across street - two cars in driveway.grabbed steering wheel veering jeep away from home & two parked vehicles. Went down embankment and did 360.i flipped jeep and it stopped ended up on passenger side.neighbors & son saw entire crash. Could not breathe due to seat belt crushing chest & me being upside down.son pulled seat belt from crushing me. Ambulance to er and no neuro on duty told could take me vegas 2 to 3 hours away. Finally went to neuro told post concussion syndrome.after little help, went to boulder co neuro center and told post concussion syndrome, ptsd and vestibular problems was in rehab therapy one month. Keep jeep in garage to protect the evidence but no attorney firm would take case as stated the crash "did not impact the rest of my life"told by az attorney firm. I worked fed courts in los angeles, ca over 20 years and can say emphatically there was no driver error. I kept for 3 months looking for attorney firm but in the interim i found [xxx] with consumer affairs and realized other people who dealt with same "sudden acceleration" were given results "driver error".i made a report with consumer affairs and was told to bring my story to your agency as well.aaa insurance company totaled jeep and picked it up june 30th and said " not driver error" but mechanical.please investigate and inform others to protect themselves and their families.a recall needs to happen.nothing can help me now but i can tell you i am telling everyone on social media and getting the word out as this never should have happened.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Vehicle displays esp (electronic stability program), bas (brake assist system), abs (antilock braking system) lights in cluster, as well as service 4wd system.while these lights are active, vehicle becomes unsafe and brakes while cornering under acceleration (without touching the brakes!) and has resulted in loss of control.issue has been repeatedly reported to dealerships and manufacturer (10 visits for this issue spread across 2 dealerships, and 4 cases have been opened with jeep directly).issue continues to be diagnosed as a failed brake light switch, and switch is replaced.new switch works for 3-6 weeks before failing again, rendering vehicle unsafe.one example of this issue resulting in the vehicle loosing traction occured in november 2015 while going on a circular highway entrance ramp with the warning lights illuminated.half way thru the turn, while gently accelerating, the rear brakes completely locked up causing the vehicle to skid onto the muddy shoulder.in january of 2016 a similar incident occured while going up a snowy hill (road curves while going uphill) resulting in the vehicle loosing traction and going into a snowbank.
Started with traction control light flashing, then it slowed vehicle felt like brakes were on, gave it more gas and got no speed increase, pressed on the brake and then it seemed to surge and speed up on its own. This was unexpected acceleration &could have lost control. After this! it went back to normal driving. Next day took a 110 mile trip traveling 70 mph on highway no issues until i arrived at destination pulled into driveway and putin park and several warning lights came on abs, esp, bas, &traction control light flashing & service 4 wheel drive...i had no problems until i stopped...when i started up to return home all the above lights stayed onbacked up out of driveway , when i put it in drive and gave it gas it started to make a bad grinding sound like metal on metal a clunking sound and did no't respond to fuel peddle.i increased speed then i felt it release like park brake being released...it drove normal back home dash lights still on,... 110 mile trip doing 70 most of the way...at home i used the built in vehicle scanner and got code u1417 which indicates front left wheel sensor... I replaced both sides same grinding sound, replaced the 2 back sensor... Now i have no lights on dash and no grinding clunking sounds no sounds at all. But when i drive i get the traction control light flashinggiving it gas i can no't accelerate above 25 mph ,seems to release at lower speeds below 25mph but it feels like the brakes are on and something it decreasing engine power... This is a dangerous problem! when i pulled unto traffic and i could no't get up to speed i almost got into a broadside accident... I thought i had fixed the problem tested it in my driveway no dash lights on ,and no grinding or clunking sound so what is it now?... Is it some traction control problem seems to be a fathom problem a lot of jeep owners are having!!
Unintended change in ignition switch position while driving.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee 4x4. While driving various speeds, the esc and traction control indicators illuminated on the instrument panel. The dealer was unable to diagnose the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was unknown.
Jeep performed an n23 recall on 10/5/13 on my vehicle as a response to a former consumer complaint about jeep grand cherokee vehicles slipping into neutral while parked.after completing the recall, which reprogrammed the final drive controller module, i left the dealership and discovered that my vehicle could no longer enter 4 wheel drive low and receives a service 4wd system light.i have been notified by other owners that this recall had a similar effect on their jeeps.i contacted the dealer service department and they knew of no available fix.the service tech manager stated that 1 in 3 vehicles that have had the n23 recall result in the same problem.he says it is likely that 1 in 3 is the same proportion of people who actually attempt to use their 4 wheel drive low.on approximately dec 6, 2013, during an ice storm, my vehicle became stuck on the side of the road.i needed to utilize my4wd low to get back onto the roadway and was not able to.
When vehicle goes over a small or large bump, a dashboard light cluster indicates to service 4wd system and is accompanied by abs, traction control, and esp bas warning lights. Abs is noticeably disabled when this light cluster appears. The indications usually last a few minutes before going away. This has been occurring for approximately the last 18,000 miles. When brought up at the dealership during routine maintenance, i am told they can find nothing wrong with the vehicle. On this last occasion, i lost full braking authority and was luckily able to gradually slow down and pull over to the freeway shoulder while applying the emergency brake. When the vehicle was shut off and turned back on the indications went away and braking was restored. Obviously, this creates a very dangerous situation.
Since the first event the vehicle has stalled at the most importuned time. Two years ago it stalled twice while entering the new jersey garden state parkway on the same day. A year ago it stalled at 40 miles per hour traveling north on university blvd 100 ft from the dealer kelly jeep dealership were the vehicle was purchased.i was made aware in july 2014 that there was an ignition key problem. By a local auto body repair shop owner. I remove everything from key except a small lightweight identification plastic taga month ago it stalled again which turning onto high speed four lange expressway. I have contact a different dealer three months go and was told chrysler is working on the problem. This is a very dangerous situation. I can't believe that in almost a year chrysler still appears to have not inkling of owh to solve the problem prior to the public announcement in sept 2014 i had it to the dealer and was required to have vehicle tested by the analyzer. No problem was found. Even though i am 90 years old i still have sufficient strength to get the vehicle to a stop and if possible to the side of the highway in order to restart it. But i am afraid that if this happens with my wife while driving she will not be have sufficient strength to steerof brake the vehicle when it losses complete power.how is this any different than the accidently operation of the ignition key event that has occurred with general motor products.last we i received a recall notice from chrysler regarding the need to re-program the final drive control module (fdcm), that may cause the service $wd light to be activated making it impossible to change gears. I do not see that listed as a recall and i have never received any other notice. His apparently has a higher priority at chrysler than the ignition key issue. Regards,
Vehicle will stall while idling or decelerating. Jeep must be put into park or neutral and ignition completely turned off and back on for car engine to turn over. Vehicle also has stalled while driving at approximately 35 mph, also needing to be restarted to resume function. The engine light will remain on half of the time once the vehicle has stalled and been restarted. The vehicle stalls anywhere from once to a dozen times a day while driving and it occurs more in the cold weather. This vehicle has been taken to the dealership twice regarding the issue, and has different codes with each visit for things that need to be repaired. This vehicle is a large safety hazard.
Complaint submitted in regard to fca us llc recall p41 nhtsa 14v-438first complaint filed 12/12/2014 odi number: 10663969on 8/19/2015, i was at the mukwonago post office to send a package. I came back out to my vehicle, started it and attempted to back out of my parking space when the steering wheel locked up and the engine shut off. Another car was on its way down the parking isle i was parked in and almost hit me because the driver was anticipating that my vehicle would have kept moving. I got out of my vehicle and apologized to the young lady who had almost hit me and explained to her the situation. She said, "you should really get that fixed. You could cause an accident." i was upset, to say the least, but needed to get back to work. I started my vehicle two more times, in addition to the first attempt, and attempted to put it in gear - no success. Finally, i was able to keep the engine running and proceed to my route.
Driving down the road the car will not go over 45 mph. The only way to quick fix the problem is to turn the car off then back on then it will run normal. Also the car has stalled out when i was turning down the road and would not go until i put the car in park then put it back in drive.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system); however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. While driving approximately 30 mph, the vehicle shut off. The vehicle was able to restart. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 40,000.
First my rear window light would come on during cold weather and would stay on this happened at 35,000 miles. Then my directional stopped working had fixed it had something to do with inside the steering column. This happened at 82,000 miles. Then a few weeks later drove myself to the drs when i came out my jeep wouldn't start. All the interior lights,radio,directional, windows worked but when i turn it on i hear a click then nothing else. Car wont turn over at all. I waited about an hour of trying before it decided to work and turn over. I then proceeded to drive 5 min stopped at a gas station for gas, when i shut it off and tried turning back on same thing happened. I waited about 45 min before it would start back up. Then no problems for 5 days. Now again its doing the same thing except i left it over night and it still wont start. I called chrysler after looking online and seeing a lot of people with complaints that were the same as mine except these people spent thousands trying to fix and replace everything yet still no luck they continue having this problem. So this is a very well known problem with jeep and even after bringing to jeep dealer and having a diagnostics done with no problems showing up. They don't know what's wrong suggested replacing wires, starter, something in the steering column, and some module. I don't want to dump tons of money in it like everyone else just to have the same problem. Chrysler apologized and said there is no recall for my vehicle. I stated it is a known problem and there should be. She then went on to say i should have it towed back to jeep for another diagnostic. It works when it wants to work and has left me and my 4 yr old stranded. It seems like anytime there's a problem with my jeep and everyone else's its always during cold winter months. Frustrated and stranded.
Vehicle has been to dealership four times for the same problem.after driving longer than 10-15 minutes turning the jeep off and trying to restart within 5-10 minutes it won't start. Let it sit for minimum of 20 minutes will start.the relays get very warm but after cooling, the car starts.dealership has zinged us for a new starter, it didn't need, a new pcm, it didn't need.testing my own theory 3 consecutive times in one day, drove the vehicle at least 30 minutes. Turned off and attempted to restart (as you would a quick trip to the store) and nothing but waiting each time, car starts after cooling.picked up the jeep two days ago from dealership who had it 18 days trying to fix it(3rd time)and the first trip that day resulted in another occurrence of the same problem.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving 20 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning and failed to restart. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 127,000. Updated 8/10/15
The engine stalled while merging from one highway to another.all power assist systems (brakes, steering) failed; restart from neutral was unsuccessful and required full power-off in park.upon restart, the mil was clear.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at 60 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was able to restart. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 154,000.
I received an 'important safety recall' (p41) in september 2014.the notice indicated that the necessary part was not available and i would receive notice when it was.i have not yet received that notice. I tried calling and was told to hold to speak with a rep - i have held for a very very long time and no one answers.if this is a safety issue, i need it taken care of immediately.my grandchildren will be in that car this summer and i must insist that they be safe.please advise when the necessary part will be available.thank you,[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).'
Engine started stalling while coasting to stops and would occasionally stall while stopped. In time with higher mileage the engine started stalling at highway speeds also. No prior warning or dash warning lights would warn ahead of stall. Eventually with higher mileage check engine light occasionally would come on while driving but wouldn't cause stalling problem. At 95,000 miles had dealer flash pcm per tsb 18-004-08 for code p0430, power flushed and cleaned engine fuel injection system. Removed and cleaned throttle body on intake manifold and ensured proper minimum air flow settings, flushed combustion chamber to remove carbon deposits. Tsb 18-004-08 resolved check engine light from coming on but still have stalling at idle or highway driving. Engine performs as always with no prior warnings before stalls.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 70 mph, the vehicle independently accelerated without warning. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified. The approximate failure mileage was 103,000. The vin was not available.
While coming to a stop at a light, the engine stalled.the mil illuminated, but cleared upon the next power-on cycle, so no codes could captured; subsequent reads revealed no stored codes.restart required the vehicle to be in park; attempts while in neutral resulted in the engine turning over, but immediately dying.
Once again as i was driving my vehicle shut down (jerked real hard) and i lost all driving capability etc power steering, speed control.....i was driving on the freeway when my jeep shut down it was during morning rush hour traffic.it was hard for me to glide over to the shoulder when everyone around you is going 60 mph and you have no power steering.when i was able to get to the shoulder i placed the jeep in park and turned the vehicle off and removed the key and put the key back in and it started right up.this has been happening everyday now and why searching the internet i've ran across on here and elsewhere that i am not the only one having problems like this with my year and make.it is really dangerous and im surprised there hasn't been a recall yet or a terrible possible fatal accident due to the vehicle being non responsive in fast heavy traffic.
Car will stay at 40 mph as if locked into that speed. I press down on the gas pedal but the car will not go any faster. I have to pull over and turn the car off, when restarted it works fine for a while. Then randomly it will happen again. This has occurred roughly once a month for the past year. On line there are thousands of jeep owners reporting the same issue. I called jeep but they said car was out of warranty so tough luck. I have owned 23 cars and have never had a car do this to me. Other people have driven this car with the same issues. This has happened both on the highway and on rural streets.
While driving my 2007 jeep grand cherokee (11/8/14) i was at a red light and the vehicle just cut off! i heard a beeping sound and noticed all the lights on the dash board were off while the car was in "drive".i put the car in "park" & turned the key in the "off" position--waited a few minutes & started the car again. I had my mother with me & told her about the "recall" & this was it...the ignition switch (recall p41).we decided to go home & when i pulled in her driveway, the same thing happened again...the engine just cut off!i'm very afraid to drive my jeep now...this could have happened while i was on the highway!! something needs to be done now!! this is my only means of transportation!!what procedures do you have in place to assist people until you are able to get the replacement part(s)? lives are at stake!!
Vehicle stalls when idling at red lights and occasionally shuts down suddenly at highway speeds. Apparently this is a common problem with this vehicle with the hemi v8 engine and it is a serious and potentially dangerous matter. There is an entire thread about this at http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/2007-jeep-grand-cherokee-overland-stalling-problem-1147825/.
I was driving down squirrel at approximately 5:40pm and going around 45-50mph when suddenly my car jerked and completely stalled and shut off. I lost all control of my car and i could not steer to go onto the grass. I immediately put my hazards on and came to a stop and restarted my car. This issue has been happening since september 1st. It has been in and out of the shop for the same issue since september 1st. It's been in and out of the shop about 10-15 times for the same issue. I have spent over $2,100 in repairs, fixes, and replacements. This issue is clearly not fixed and this is a serious safety concern. They keep releasing me a car that is completely unsafe to drive. This not only happened once, but this has happened every single time they have released me my car.
Jeep is having electrical issues. It will randomly go into limp mode at start, but turning it off and restarting it fixes that issue. It's done this three times in the 2 years we have had it. I am now having an electrical issue where something is causing a draw on the battery while the vehicle is turned off. I have had to replace the alternator, starter, and now the battery.it is causing the battery to swell, and the jeep is having to be jumped to start multiple times a week. The battery was put on a deep charge, and it had to be jumped the next day. Also the air conditioning back lighting goes off and on when you turn the knobs or adjust the fan speed while both driving and stationary. This has been going on for roughly a month.
I have two problems with the vehicle that make it unsafe to drive.the first is that the engine randomly stalls.most of the time it stalls when the vehicle is stopped.sometimes it stalls at very slow speeds. When stopped, sometimes i hear a "thunk" right before it stalls like it was trying to go into gear.it has done this running in park and when the brake is pressed while in drive. It has stalled on me in busy intersections putting me in unsafe situations.turning the key all the way off and back on will restart it. The second issue is that the transmission randomly gets stuck in 4th gear.it happens most often when a lot of power has been applied from stop.but it also happens randomly. When it occurs, i pull over and stop the engine turning the key all the way off.usually when i restart it will go back to drive and all the gears in the transmission function normally. The issue is so chronic now with the transmission that it immediately goes into 4th and the vehicle is not drivable.it is at the dealer now.the dealer pulled codes and recommends replacing the transmission solenoid pack.this part is currently on national backorder and there is no eta of when the part will be available to the dealer.also there is no guarantee that this part will fix the transmission problem.if it doesn't, the vehicle will require a new transmission.they are not even looking at the stalling problem until the transmission problem is resolved.the stalling problem is very serious and i cannot confidently use the vehicle without fearing putting children in an unsafe situation.there should be a safety recall by chrysler on these vehicles.
The heat of the summer months tend to make the car engine sputter as you head down the road.this happpened again yesterday only this time as we prepared to make our turn the vehicle totally shut off, allowing me to loose control of the steering we were fortunate no one was behind us or pulling out where we were turning .we would have either been rear ended or would have run into any car waiting to turn.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle would independently start, an abnormal anti-freeze odor was present inside the vehicle, and the shifter was difficult to operate. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 141,000.
Soon after the p41 ignition switch recall, while driving 1 mile,the instrument cluster gauges stopped working-speedo, gas, etc , all warning lights illuminated .

The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system); however, the dealer refused to schedule an appointment for two weeks due to the volume of repairs that needed to be performed. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was approximately 148,000. Parts distribution disconnect.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving various speeds, the vehicle would stall. The dealer could not duplicate the failure. The failure was intermittent and would usually occur while making right turns. The contact brought the vehicle to the dealer again who stated that it needed a tune up. The vehicle was repaired by the contact, but the failure recurred. Shortly after, the contact received a notification for nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system).

Purchased 2007 jeep grand cherokee overland 5.7 hemi july 31, 2007.december 1, 2010 my wife was traveling on an interstate at 65 mph when the engine suddenly shut down.she managed to pull the car off the road, started the engine and drove home without any more issues.dealership technician discovered p0884 code from the pcm.he could not find any problems.car continued to stall numerous times at high speed and sometimes while stopped at a stop sign or red light.this problem started shortly after the engine spark plugs were changed.after numerous parts were changed at the dealership, with no results, the technician contacted an engineer from the chrysler company.during an on site visit the engineer suspected there was an issue with the upper engine harness receiving an electrical induction from the engine coils causing the pcm to shut the engine down.the technician installed foil around the harness and wire tied the harness up off the cradles they lay in.engine performed normal with no shut downs for several months.decision was made to change the upper engine harness.since the harness was changed my jeep has stalled out four more times.the most recent stall occurred the last week of december 2012.this is an extremely dangerous situation to be traveling at interstate speed limits and your car stalls.chrysler places drivers in a situation with a vehicle that is uncontrollable while traveling on an interstate with cars behind you.i started an on line thread in jeep forum.com concerning this issue.http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/2007-jeep-grand-cherokee-overland-stalling-problem-1147825/.there are numerous other folks having this problem in the usa, canada, and hawaii.i think that an investigation should be performed to discover what is causing this issue and come up with a positive repair for customers that are having this problem.
The vehicle would just suddenly shutdown, i bought the vehicle used just a few days before the incident but driving to different state. Since then, it has stalled several times and i have taken it to the dealer and since there is no engine check light, dealer says they cannot find the problem. It would stall at any speed, temperature or any condition. I am afraid that it may stall at the wrong place at the wrong time. Although it would start right away but sometimes it take 3-4 times to turn over. I hope chrysler would find a fix for this.
Car stalled while traveling on highway at 65mph with light throttle. Electrical systems stayed on, engine cut out with no warning. When the engine stopped a single alert chime sounded. The car was maneuvered to the shoulder. Placed the vehicle in park and restarted by turning off, then on. Started on first attempt. This is the first stall i have encountered after purchasing the jeep 1 month ago. The engine has stuttered a couple of times at highway speeds with the alert chime sounding once each time, but the engine restarted within a second and continued going.
In may of 2014 i replaced my starter because when i would attempt to start my vehicle it would crank but the engine would not turn over. The condition persisted even after putting on an new starter. I eventually went to a jeep dealer and they were unable to remedy the problem. I received a recall notice from chrysler about p41/nhtsa 14v-438 recall but was not given a time frame as to when i would be able to take the vehicle in for servicing. In the meantime i continue to drive the one vehicle and it has continued to not start in instances when i need it most. It has done so while my wife had the vehicle which has caused me great distress as she was alone and panicked when it happened. The vehicle does start eventually after about 20 minutes or so. This is unsafe and unacceptable. We spoke to a representative at the dealership where the vehicle was purchased and she told us she could not say when the part would be available. She went on to say we could wait it out or trade it in and basically tack on the amount owed on to the purchase of another vehicle. This is not an option. This situation is very inconvenient as i use the vehicle primarily to commute to work and if unable to drive to work our household income will take a huge blow. We seek remedy.[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
My vehicle stalls while driving.it happens while at idle at a stop light, and it happens while at speed.it hasn't occurred yet at speeds above 45 mph.everytime it stalls, i get a oil pressure warning light.i occasionally receive a electronic throttle warning light as well.i also occasionally receive a electronic stability program (esp)/traction control system (tcs) indicator light when my power steering cuts off due to the engine stall.the problem always corrects itself upon shutting the key off, and restarting the vehicle.i have had it to the dealership, and they haven't been able to diagnose nor recreate the problem.fyi, i recently had my 5 year powertrain inspection done by the chrysler dealership, and my jeeppassed with no noted issues.i have included a link to a website that shows many other people having similar problems with this vehicle.this vehicle is a safety hazard, and it needs to be recalled.here's the link to the website:http://www.aboutautomobile.com/complaint/2007/jeep/grand+cherokee/engine+and+engine+cooling+system.

2007jeep grand cherokee laredo engine stalled out while trying to accelerate when red light turned green. Loss of engine power, power steering and loss of braking. Received a recall (# p41) for a faulty ignition switchin september 2014 for this problem. Engine has been cutting off intermittently since august 2014 while either trying to accelerate from a dead stop or while trying to make a turn. Chrysler said to remove any objects from key ring which we have done and the problem persists. We are afraid to drive this car at all. We have been to several jeep dealership mechanics and they say that the problem does not show up on their diagnostic testing so they cannot fix anything until chrysler sends new parts for the recall.have tried to speak with chrysler personnel and am always put on hold for 2 hours at a time!!is chrysler waiting for a tragedy to occur beforedispatching the parts to fix thisrecall??
I was driving on route 50 going 65mph. This vehicle is a quad 4x4 automatic / stick shift manual, which was in my favor. When i realized the vehicle was shutting down i had to think quickly what my next steps would be. I started to get over to the right side of the road and brake, because the vehicle was shutting down the power brakes where going out and i could not brake completely. The vehicle was still moving and i was about 200 yards away from my exit and the side of the road was winding around toward the off ramp and getting smaller for me to drive on. I realized that i was not able stop the vehicle by using the floor brake then the fear factor set in. In my mind the only thing i can do is pull the stick shift handbrake and quickly put the vehicle in park then i was able to get control and safely stop the vehicle.this ordeal happened at 4:20pm yesterday and by the time we towed the vehicle back to the dealership and tried to explain to the general sales manager, si faige, on site at darcars in new carrollton, md what all transpired on the road in the unsafe vehicle that they sold us, he didn't want to hear any of it.

While driving on the interstate at 65 mph, the vehicle's engine stalled. I had to put the vehicle in neutral, turn the ignition off an back on to restart it. This first happened just after the 30 day warranty was over, as i bought the vehicle used in may of 2012. Since that time, the vehicle has stalled at highway speeds or when slowing down for a stop on dozens if not hundreds of occasions. The spark plugs, egr valve, ignition coil, pcv valve and map sensor have been changed to no effect. There are no meaningful diagnostic codes stored in the obd-ii system. I feel this condition is very dangerous, as i never know when the vehicle will stall, causing a loss of power steering and brakes, and the ability to accelerate out of harm's way. It is my understanding that many of these same vehicles with the same engine are having similar issues. I can no longer let my wife or teenage son drive the vehicle because of this condition.

This is the third time i receive a letter on the mail from jeep named as "important safety recall information" stating that my car has been recalled due to a defect relating to motor vehicle safety, more specifically: unintended change in ignition switch position that implies a safety risk. I went on the safecar.gov site to confirm the status of my recall and it says that there is a recall in effect on my car model but unfortunately jeep doesn't have the part replacement yet. I want this problem fixed asap.
When turning left or right at slow speed the engine rpm drop from about 600 rpm to 300 or 400 rpm and then stalls. This happened 11 time in 2010 and then final disappeared. It now happen in 4 times since 24 march 2014. Twice it happened in northern nj as i tried to enter the garden state parkway, once in a shiopping mall and two weeks ago as i was turn off the main road into my street. Recently i have written the dealer where i purchased the vehicle explaining the problem but i have never received evenan acknowledgement. I was told by chrysler customer service that i would have to have an expensive analysis done. When this was done in 2010 they could not find anything. I was told they had to see it happen. Ihad it happen 1000 ft from their facility, but they refused see the vehicle unless it was towed. I feel that this is a very dangerous situation especially when it occurs turning onto a high speed highway.

Normal driving conditions on road and jeep totally dies, no power at all, this has happened twice.two other instances the jeep loses power and slows down on the highway and in heavy traffic.i have contacted my jeep dealer more than once, with no satisfaction.
I have 2 issues. 1st is jeep intermittently doesn't start. Which sometimes causes it to shut off while driving luckily i have been on side streets. It cranks but doesn't fire. Was told it could be a bad fuel pump relay.next issue is it intermittently puts in self in all gears sometimes when i start it and sometimes when driving. I have to turn jeep off and restart it. Worst has been when i'm on highway and it does this i go from 75mph to 20mph at a dangerous rate. I then have to pull over and turn off and restart again. It has been doing this on and off for about a year now. And progressively getting more often.
I had just pulled onto a 4 lane highway when the rpm's started racing but the jeep did not accelerate it instead loss all power. I coasted to the side of the highway and just the jeep off and restarted it and called the service garage the next morning and they said it sounded like the security system had shut down the jeep. It has since did that at least 10 more times and so far every time it has been as soon as i pull out, what will happen if i am travelling at 75 mph and it loses power on a crowded freeway.i recently learned there was a recall on it but the parts are not available until september. Recall number 14v-438.and i no way believe that it is caused by my knee hitting the ignition switch, that is not even possible.
Car consistently stalls when coming to a complete stop or idling.
Bri was driving down the road in the vehicle cut off i pulled in to a parking space in fort payne alabama try to crank it again it would not crank and it done it before but it will crank back up first time they said the software second time they said it was the thermostat now they say it's the key and i can't get one because it's on backorder and they said it would take a year and its been in there for 2 month and we need a vehicle or we won't have a job we are hitching rides with people
I would be driving down the road and my jeep will shut off all by itself and then turn back on all while driving down the expressway doing 75mph my steering wheel and lights and breaks would all lock up then the jeep would just pop back on and then the rpm's would be really high so i would have to hit the breaks to slow way down so my jeep wouldn't blow up on me . I've taken it to like 5 mechanics and they can not figure what's wrong with it . Then also i can get in my jeep and start it and my radio and backup camera won't work and some of my gages wouldn't register when i start it ups don't start going down the road so i will have to pull over shut my jeep off and pull the key out and open the door to make sure everything is off then put the key can in and restart it and sometimes it will work and sometimes i will have to do it a few times to get it to work .

The failure mileage was approximately 191,000.
The engine died going 70mph on the hwy with out any notice. I was barely able to get to the side of road as steering locked up, once on side of road, i put it into 'park' and 'restarted the engine'. It worked just fine from then on, till about 3 months later, it happened again. This time i was approaching a stop light and turning right, i barely was able to get thru the light and to the side of the road, as the steering had again locked up. This is very scary! everything in the car turns 'off', i dont even think the flashers worked during these times. Once at a complete stop, and after putting into 'park', everything starts back up normally, and drives fine. There is not any other signs of anything wrong, no dash light warnings or anything.
This vehicle has a 5.7 liter hemi v-8. It currently has an exhaust manifold leak because jeep uses cheap screws to mount the manifold to the engine block. As such, the screws snap causing a leak. This is a well know problem for this engine but chrysler refuses to acknowledge it and the repairs will be a minimum of $500.never buy a jeep!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate and went into limp mode. The vehicle was not diagnosed but the contact personally replaced the electronic shift module. The manufacturer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was 57,000.
I had been driving for maybe 8 minutes at 55 mph when suddenly the vehicle jumped, stalled and lost power.after gliding to the side of the road, i made 3 attempts to restart in park.it would not restart.after waiting several minutes the car did restart. All of this while people are passing at 60 mph on a two lane road!! the vehicle is not registering any codes!!
Vehicle shut off while driving without any driver action.weather clear.pavement dry.don't know temp.never reported as i thought it was a one-off incident - until hearing of the current recall for this issue on other jeep vehicles in this time period.
While at a stop light, the engine stalled and produced a mil reading.codes p0129, p0688, p0884 were stored, but cleared upon the next cycling of the ignition.the vehicle would not restart until a full power-off cycle (in park).attempts to restart while in neutral resulted in the engine turning over and immediately killing.

I have received a recall notice over a year ago from fiat chrysler. I have had the vehicle turn off due to the ignition switch multiple times. Both my husband and my son were driving the car at the time. The engine stopped, the power steering did not work, it was on the highway and on a country curvy road.i do not feel i can sell this car to someone else who might potentially wreck due to this issue. I am still being told the parts are not available to fix this vehicle.
Vehicle has intermittent stalling issue.has happened four times in the 1500 miles i have owned the vehicle.3 occasions have been at idle and once on the highway at 65 mph.no codes are logged, no check engine or malfunction lights come on.it always restarts immediately after shut down.

Catastrophic engine failure at about 124,000 miles.luckily in the driveway where i had parked the car after running normal errands.the car would not start up again and had to be towed since the battery was new and the starter seemed frozen.i took excellent care of this car at the dealership and at a top local garage since we bought it.i was stunned that the engine failed without any notice, no warning lights, no noise, nothing.the local mechanic saw "chunks of metal" in the pan.i now need a completely new engine 5 weeks after an oil change due to a design flaw in my jeep hemi engine. I never received any letter or notification about this apparently well known and relatively common problem.i had every recall performed on this car.there was never a recall for this problem which apparently includes the intake manifold.the response from the dealership was that the hemi is a good engine.really???no apologies, no call from the manufacturer.out of warranty, so it is just too bad for me as a customer.they know the design flaw exists but don't care about the customer.just their bottom line.

One saturday night i needed to run to the grocery store. When i got back into my car, it wouldn't start. It was obviously not a battery problem because there was a terrible tapping noise and vibration coming from the engine. After speaking with a mechanic about the car, i was told it is probably a dropped valve seat. Now, i am looking at over $4000 to swap an engine that was never hot-rodded or abused. After a simple search online, i find that this is a very common issue for the 5.7l hemi engines. So much so that i have no idea why there isn't a recall or class action suit.
I bought this jeep on 9/20/2013. The truck is equipped with the 5.7 l hemi engine. Over the first 50 days and 1,157 miles of ownership i have encountered 18 episodes of the vehicle stalling, with 14 of those stalls occurring on major highways in traffic. The stalls occur with no warning. The vehicle immediately decelerates to a stop and i am left with no power, no steering and no brakes. One dealership blamed it on a bad battery. The dealership which sold me the jeep diagnosed the problem as a m.a.p. Sensor, which they replaced. That did not correct the problem as the stalling problem continues to occur. The most recent was on 11/9/2013 while driving in the center lane of the pa turnpike at 65 mph. The jeep stalled and came to a stop, with a semi tractor-trailer behind me. I have no idea how that truck driver was able to swerve in time to miss me. Mechanics and on-line forums identify possible causes for the stalling as 1. A defective (ecm) electronic control modules; 2. Shorts in the wiring harness; 3. Sparks plugs; 4. Egr valve; 5. Ignition coil; 6. Pcv valve; 7. Transmission solenoid pack. There are no diagnostic codes stored in the obd-ii system. One school of thought is that 2007 jeep grand cherokee and commanders equipped with the 5.7 l hemi engine are extremely sensitive to radio frequency interference from the waste spark on the coil. As other complaints have noted, this is an obvious and persistent problem with jeeps equipped with the hemi engine, and chrysler has turned a deaf ear to the complaints. Perhaps they are waiting for the fatalities to occur. Why nhtsa hasn't done more to order a recall is beyond my comprehension. The problem has been reported on for years with no action taken by chrysler. This jeep is, for lack of a better word, a deathtrap. At best it cannot be trusted, it is unsafe and unreliable. At worst it is an accident waiting to happen!
The car was a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. Once again as i was driving my vehicle shut down (jerked real hard) and i lost all driving capability etc power steering, speed control. . . . . I was driving on the freeway when my jeep shut down it was during morning rush hour traffic. It was hard for me to glide over to the shoulder when everyone around you is going 60 mph and you have no power steering. When i was able to get to the shoulder i placed the jeep in park and turned the vehicle off and removed the key and put the key back in and it started right up. This has been happening everyday now and why searching the internet i've ran across on here and elsewhere that i am not the only one having problems like this with my year and make. It is really dangerous and im surprised there hasn't been a recall yet or a terrible possible fatal accident due to the vehicle being non responsive in fast heavy traffic. This engine shut off without warning.i'm getting tired of going to different shops and no one knows what is wrong.apparently jeep has made a bad truck since this is a wide spread problem around the world for this year and model.
The vehicle stalls a various speeds, but typically while driving at highway speeds.my daily commute is about 32 miles each way and i typically experience the vehicle shutting off once per day.when the vehicle does stall i have been able to place the vehicle in neutral, turn the ignition off, then restart by turning the ignition back on and putting the vehicle back in drive.i did have the vehicle serviced for recall p41 / nhtsa 14v-438 which was to resolve issues with loss of power during driving but no significant changes have been noticed since the repair.this issue has been occurring for about the last three years with increasing frequency.it has been taken in for repair multiple times, beside the recall repair, while under warranty but never fixed.this issue is a major safety concern for myself and family as there are times when the vehicle stalls while entering onto the highway or during highway travel.when the vehicle stalls it looses power steering so control and speed put ourselves and others at danger. The date and mileage mentioned below is the last time the stall occurred and not reflective of all the occurrences when the vehicle stalled.
Driving down road and engine stalled. Loss of power steering and power brakes.caused car behind me to slam on brakes to avoid getting hit.put in neutral and tried to start.had to switch ignition offbefore engine would start.stalls at random without any engine malfunction lamps.hazard to be driving on road. Problem still unknown and vehicle is out of extended warranty by five thousand miles.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at 20 mph, an unknown warning light illuminated and suddenly the vehicle accelerated independently. The vehicle was shifted to the neutral position but the vehicle continued to rev and the accelerator pedal was stuck. The vehicle was turned off and in while in park, the accelerator pedal remained stuck. The vehicle was able to restart and operate correctly. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer wasnotified of the failure. The failure mileage was 90,000.
As i was driving the truck jerked real hard which almost knocked the wind out of me and i lost control of steering, speed, i was unable to start the truck. I had to make my way to the shoulder in morning traffic on the highway to put the car in park and turn the ignition off and start it over again i had to do this 2 times before it started. Proceeded to get back into traffic and it jerked again this time it stopped running and started clicking all by itself until i stopped the truck and turned it off and started it again. This is not the first time this has happened and it very dangerous and from the looks of things this is a ongoing problem with this model & year jeep.
Dropped a valve seat and destroyed the engine. Head and piston damage. Normal every day driving. This is the second jeep engine in this car that blew up at 70k miles.
Vehicle suddenly lost power (did not stall) while driving 70 mph on interstate i40 in a construction zone (no access to median because of concrete construction barriers).engine power did not allow me to drive over 35 mph.dash board indicator started flashing red (etc indicator: electronic throttle control). Several tractor trailers had to brake hard to avoid running into the rear of my vehicle.engine is 3.0l mercedes diesel.problem appears to be a failed swirl motor due to excessive oil blow by from a defective intake tube with an orange gasket.this mercedes diesel engine was used in jeep gr cherokee in 2007 & 2008.this particular problem was identified in nhtsa item #1006202 regarding mercedes vehicles but never to jeep.this situation of loss of power while highway driving could of been tragic.this jeep 2007 & 2008 problem is well documented in various jeep forums on the internet. Why is nhtsa not doing anything about it???
I purchased the vehicle at the end of may 2012 engine light was on and had a due bill for work to be done, stalling was 1 of the issues. Got it back with no check engine light on,but still stalled whenever hot or cold driving or in park. Has been in and out of the shop for almost a year and it still stalls, jeep tech's cant figure it out. Dies sometimes 3-4 times a day and once in awhile not at all, but on average 3-5 times a week,never throws a code or check engine light just dies like if i turn the key off. I have to stop or pull over put it in park turn the key all the way off and then restart,runs fine till the next stall which might be in a few minutes,hours or the next day!! very frustrated and don't feel safe at all!!about 3000 dollars of work has been done and still stalls. Next thing to do jeep tech says replace wiring harness 2000 dollars..haven't done that yet hopefully something else can be done!!! pcm and plugs have been replace by jeep tech's among other things tried and it still stalls!
I purchased my jeep a little over a year ago used. I have had numerous problems since i have purchased it. First it was thought to be an electrical problem since the car would randomly shutter, would not want to start or just turned off. Battery was replaced multiple times, since it would leave stranded at any given time. The engine light comes on, but there has not been a solution to what it can be. I feel very unsafe in my car, and i am not sure what to do at this point. When i turn the car on, there is a loud hum or propelling sound coming out of the engine.

My jeep has been recalled due to possible ignition switch failure. I have called every "chrysler, jeep, dodge" dealership around me and all dealerships have a waiting list of a minimum of 2-3 months for parts to be in to fix this problem. Because my safety is in jeopardy i feel that it's a bit unreasonable for me (and the other people on the list) to wait for months for this problem to be fixed.

Vehicle stall out at various speeds, or when idling stationary.comes on without warning.seems these stalling problems are common with 5.7 hemi jeep grand cherokees, even according to the dealer. This is a serious safety hazard as power steering and brakes are lost during a stall.an inoperative vehicle in a traffic lane could suffer a rear-end collision from this condition.please help by ordering a recall from chrysler company to remedy the problem.nothing seems to remedy the situation and it keeps occurring.

As i was driving my car jerked real hard and all my dash lights came on and my ability to drive my car was useless. My jeep slowed down on the freeway during morning rush hour traffic almost causing several accidents. As i was trying to restart my jeep it just keep making a clicking noise and wouldn't stop. I had to pull the key from the ignition and reinsert the key and try to start the jeep. After 3 tries it started and i went to drive off and as i was accelerating my jeep did it again finally it stayed on and i was able to drive to a safe location. My jeep sounded real strange not like normal. This is the 7 th or 8th time this has happened since i had my jeep not even a year to date.
I have a 2007 grand cherokee. While taking my kids to school, i was slowing down when the jeep just died. I coasted to the side of the road and was able to start the car again. Anytime since then, mainly when slowing down to stop, it would do the same thing. Tried replacing ecm, sensors, etc. Nothing has worked yet. Jeep dealer told us it could be the wiring harness...which we cant find anywhere.

I only been able to drive the car short distances because of the fear of death lose breaking and steering. Have seen other complaints with the same issues on the internet why is this vehicle allowed to be on the road

Purchased 2007 jeep grand cherokee overland 5.7 on 11/30/2012. On 12/04/2012 i experienced stalling while decelerating to stop for a stop light, then the vehicle stalled showing code p0884. The vehicle started right back up when i turned the key with no signs of hesitation. Ever since that day, my vehicle stalls on average about 8-10 times per week depending on how often i use the vehicle. It stalls mainly during idle or coming to a stop and the most frightening stall i have experienced was when i was traveling at 60mph on a major highway and the vehicle completely stalled, and instantly restarted itself. Both times i experienced stalling at high speed was when i was doing about 60mph and both times the vehicle restarted itself on its own. But every time the vehicle stalls, i loose all power including power steering which worries me very much. Apparently i am not the only 2007 jeep grand cherokee overland with the 5.7 motor owner experiencing this problem.i am one of the hundreds on owners involved in a group discussion on jeepforum.com where we discuss this problem and steps that jeep, private mechanics, and/or owners themselves have taken to correct this stalling problem.this problem has been going on for years and no one seems to have a solution.loss of power at 60mph is a very big issue and i worry that someone can be very hurt or killed by loss of power steering during stalling.i hope this issue raises concerns for my vehicle and i would be more than willing to allow someone from the nhtsa come and test drive my vehicle to experience what i and hundreds, possibly thousands of others are experiencing. Thank you very much and if you should have any questions in regards to this problem, please do not hesitate to contact me any time.
While vehicle is in motion a front dashboard lights would flash for a while and suddenly goes dark including head lights and brake lights. This is not in any correlation with weather, temperature or road conditions. This has been happening randomly and due to safety concern we no longer use the vehicle for a family trip and we do not use the vehicle at night since all electrical components goes off while it is in motion.per online search it appears there are numerous jeep owners experiencing the similar malfunction. This is a very serious safety issue, so why the manufacturer has not issued a recall to have this repaired?
My 2007 jeep g.cherokee can be on the highway traveling 55 mph and then decided to die. It will shut off and cannot increase speed. I havea one year old in the back seat and this has happened to many times while having my son the back seatand trying to get over to the break down lane before it completely dies. Also doesn't start some days some will. Defiantly have electrical proven like in the recall. Their is a fuel relay recallthere is a many recalls for the same things happening to my jeep and it's becoming a hazard and scary for me traveling with my son.
Began stalling when stopped or coming to a stop with foot off the accelerator. Engine would start up just by restarting the jeeps. Months later sometimes you would have to turn the key to off before it would start,. On average it would stall once every 7 to 10 days.no codes, stored or pending during this journey.replaced the cam sensor. Check hoses for vacuum leak, found none. Replaced the asd relay. Changed from premium to mid grade.changed to regular grade. Checked air filter and cleaned throttle body with stp cleaner.added fuel system cleaner to fuel tank.checked all of the electronic connectors, none loose or damaged. Checked transmission fluidlevel was fine.replaced map sensor and position crank sensor. Replace egr valve changed oil and filter for the first time since i purchased the jeep. Used sae 5w30. With 79,000 miles on the hemi i replaced all sixteen champion 570 with new champion 570. Sprayed each of the 16 boots with electronic cleaner verified the plug gap and torqued the plugs. Sprayed vast amount of stp throttle body cleaner in the tb and stp fuel system cleaner in the gas tank. Still stalling.

I was driving late friday night (11/14)/early saturday morning (11/15) to waterford, wi from palmyra, wi and my vehicle shut off causing me to become startled, which then caused me to deviate from my lane and then was pulled over by a town of mukwonago police officer. I could have killed someone if oncoming traffic was involved! i then received a ticket for unsafe lane deviation and was taken to waukesha county jail under the assumption that i was drinking and driving after i attempted to show the officer the recall for my vehicle. Pending my court date, i could receive a possible owi charge. I am very upset about this because that is an $800 fine and will also cause my insurance premium to increase.
I own a 07 grand cherokee with a 5.7l v8 hemi. I loved that truck and took great care of it. Nearly 10 months ago i had a valve seat drop without warning at 92k miles and now i need a new engine. There were no warning signs leading up to the failure and i kept very good care of the vehicle. After driving for 15 minutes i stopped at a store to get materials, when i returned and tried to start the vehicle, the engine wouldn't turn over. It hasn't started since that day. It was towed to a chrysler dealership and $150 later they let me know what they "thought" the issue was, but i was still informed the only way to confirm i needed a new engine was to charge me $1,500 to take the engine apart and "diagnose" the issue, not fix it. They knew what the issue was and still tried to charge me for it. On top of that every chrysler representative and maintenance person i've talked to about this issue (4) have been completely unhelpful, to the point of being rude. After having the vehicle towed to an independent service center, i was quoted nearly $8,000 for a new engine and they can't even guarantee the issue won't occur again since they have the same parts. I simply can't afford that amount of work, so now i'm just making payments on a dead truck that's of no use to me. Fca is a joke of a company, and they need to make this right.

I own a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. I received a recall on a part in july of 2014. It is now april 2015. There is still no part to replace this ignition switch problem. I have children that i need to drive to and from school. This vehicle is not safe. My husband has seen now at least 3 vehicles (same make, model and year) in car accidents. These car were completely totaled. There is no fixing them. One vehicle a car blew up because the ignition switch. This is ridiculous. Almost a year now, and there is still not part to fix this problem. And i can't sell my vehicle to anybody because then i could be sued because of the ignition switch recall. Your jeep dealerships will not buy them back for what they are worth because of the ignition switch recall. I get below value offers. I will not buy jeep again. But the fact that jeep is taking so long to fix this issue is ridiculous. When people start dying because of it, then you will be sued for those deaths because that ignition switch recall was not fixed in a decent amount of time. I figured 6 months max. Its now almost a year and again still no replacement part. I'm disgusted at the fact that nothing is being done about this. No one seems to care or realize the potential danger this ignition switch causes. I wouldn't wish this upon anyone but it may happen to you just so you open up your eyes and realize what is really going on.
Cruising along at 60mph suddenly had reduced power, vehicle would not go more the 40mph, this has happend twice since. Pulled to the side of the road, turned off vehicle, restarted, and was back to normal.
The engine stalled while at cruise speed (not accelerating) and with no warning.there was 1/2 tank of gas; the mil did not illuminate.upon loss of engine power, all power assist systems (e.g.: brakes, steering) ceased to operate.i successfully restarted the vehicle by shifting into neutral and turning the key as far toward "off" as is possible when the vehicle is not in park.on the second attempt, the vehicle restarted with no mil illumination.
While driving the vehicle the engine will randomly shut off (stall), this occurs at any speed and any driving condition, occasionally it will be very difficult to restart, taking multiple tries. This is extremely dangerous especially when turning corners or coming off the freeway and merging into traffic.was almost rear ended when truck stalled and would not start i even put in neutral with no help and it just kept jumping.
I had received a notice in the mail regarding a recall on my jeep. I have called multiple dealerships and have been told that the parts haven't even been distributed yet. When i called again recently i was told the parts weren't even made yet and to make sure nothing heavy was hanging from my keys. Use my car everyday and i'm concerned for my safety. There has been multiple times were the car has shut off on my and/ or has had no power to it when driving. I feel as though no one is helping us with this matter. I would like answers instead of being left in the dark. Thank you for your time.

Numerous times i've been driving and my car has lost power and i've had to restart the engine. Sometimes it takes a while for my car to start on the first turn of the key. The start gets dragged on. Sometimes all my check engine lights come on with every other lights as well. Several times i have to wait then start the car and it will turn on. Besides the car completely turning off while i'm driving, now my car won't turn on at all. The battery is fine. Radio and everything turns on. But the ignition won't click over and start my car. So, now i am with no car for work. I called chrysler headquarters for my calls recall back in september and was told they are out of the part they need. My car worked then, just very sketchy, so i was ok waiting, just extremely cautious. Now it won't even turn on, i called jeep, they said they are still waitin for the part and all i can do is wait on the list. They won't even give me a loaner since it's a recall issue and not a "service" issue. I have no car, and not the money for a new one, so now i'm at a loss.
While drivingon rt 66 w in pw county va during rush hour traveling at 70+ mph the dash lights flashed, the red light indicating electronic throttle control illuminated and the car suddenly dropped speed to 20 mph and would not respond the accelerator peddle being pushed to floor.cars behind me drove off in the median trying to avoid me nearly causing a major chain reaction.so far i have spent $4000+ in repairs and cause cannot be found.there are 100's of complaints on this issue in the various internet blogs.it appears that the mercedesbenz and chrysler 300 crd having this same engine has been recalled due to same symptoms.this vehicle needs to be recalled before someone is killed, if that has not happened already and the accident was not properly investigated.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system) months ago. The dealer (brown's jeep chrysler dodge ram, 483 ny-112, east patchogue, ny 11772, (631) 289-8500) was unable to determine when the remedy and part would become available. The dealer stated that they placed the contact on a waiting list for the part, but did not specify what number the contact was placed on the list. While waiting for the part, a failure progressed that caused the key not to turn over to start the vehicle. Also, the service engine warning indicator illuminated. The manufacturer had seven tsbs on the engine. The manufacturer was notified of the failure.the failure mileage was not available.
I was driving at highway speed when i accidently touched the key in the ignition switch.the engine died and i coasted to the roadside where i restarted the engine.i had received the recall notice sent by chrysler and had followed the directions contained in the notice, so notified them of the incident.about a month later the same thing occurred but this time i did not touch the key.this time it happened while i was stoppedat an intersection and started to accelerate into a turn.the vehicle had just began to move when it died.i restarted the vehicle and completed the trip.i again notified chrysler who directed me to have the switch replaced immediately.the dealer that i was using told me the old model replacement switch was not in stock and unavailable as the new parts had not been produced and he would not attempt to find a replacement.i located a dealer who ordered the old designed part from chrysler stock and replaced it for me.they also instructed me to return when the new parts are available as the work did not satisfy the recall notice.i contacted chrysler some time back to see when newly designed parts would be available and they still had not received them.they also said they had no time frame for the replacement parts.this is the one year anniversary of the problem without resolution, far too long.

Same description as many other consumers.slow, rough acceleration at all times.very difficult to accelerate especially when entering freeway. Need to pull over on ramp and turn off vehicle in hopes that restart will help.vehicle will stall while driving on freeway. Just completely shuts down.very dangerous for driver and those around driver.have to attempt to get to side of road and turn off vehicle and hope that upon restart vehicle will improve.too many complaints over the years have gone unheeded and an immediate recall needs to be done before serious injuries or deaths occur.
Vehicle just randomly stalls, shuts off as if the key was turned off and on quickly.sometimes this happens when driving at highway speeds or when going slow around a turn or making any turns, this is very dangerous because of the loss of power steering and its very difficult to steer when it stalls.this will also happen when idling in park or when sitting at stoplights.
When driving the vehicles engine will shut off without warning or reason. It happens very randomly.
I took ownership of the vehicle in december 2013. While driving, the vehicle engine has suddenly shut down on three separate occasions. The first time was in january 2014 in heavy highway traffic near colorado springs at about 50mph.i was able to move to the shoulder and turned the key off then restarted the engine. There seemed to be no adverse effects thereafter so i thought it was a random event. Then one week later driving on a lightly trafficked highway in wy at about 60mph, with the cruise control engaged, the engine again suddenly shut down and again i was able to steer to the shoulder and switched the ignition off and then restart it.when i returned home i had my local mechanic check the vehicle over and had him check the computer for faults.after the checkup i thought the issue was settled.then in march driving down a winding mountain road near boise id the engine again suddenly shut down and i steered to the road side where i switched the ignition off and then restarted it. There after i read about this issue concerning some jeep models. I put my vin number in the jeep website and it said there were no recalls for it. I will take it to the dealer in hopes there is a resolution for this seemingly chronic serious problem.

While driving 60 on the highway, i suddenly had no acceleration. The check engine light did not come on, the dash lights stayed the same as while driving. I pulled over to the side of the road, put it in park, turned the key off, then started it on the first try. It then drove fine.a week and a half later, 3-3-2015, i'm sitting at a stop light, the light turns green, i accelerate, the jeep starts to move forward, then again, loses all power. I pull over, try to start the jeep, it won't start. I immediately try again, it won't start. I wait about 20 seconds, try again, it starts. Drove fine the rest of the night. Both times i was on the highway in 4-6 lanes of traffic! one of these times i won't be as lucky as i have been! this is only a few of the ongoing problems i have had with this jeep. You can check with the manager of the service department at lee chrysler dodge jeep in fort walton beach to find out what part they replaced about 6 months ago that i had to pay for, that i strongly believe should have been covered by one of your many recalls. I really hope you plan to recompensate us for all the trouble this has caused us. Obviously i need to be rid of this jeep before it gets me killed.
The jeep has electrical stuff happening sporadically and does not start but with power but after 3 to 6 attempts starts right up. I turn key all power and bells go off and it makes a humming noise and 1 click noise dash says' transmission over temp' the jeep is cold so not over temperature.i've seen a lot of post about recall and also about ignition switch or module. I've only owned for 2 years and dealer said car had no recalls when i purchased.this happens stationary and also after driving about 20 minutes to destination and when i went to leave it took several times before starting. This has been going on for last 3 days but few messages randomly popped in information center few times before this had at dealer on computer no codes said it was okay
I was driving on county road about 45 mph battery light came on then abs light then message service anti lock brake system, engine and brake light they stayed on till i got home there was also a very low humming noise when i turned off car it would not start again. In morning it started i turned it off and it will not start again. Battery and engine light on. 11/19/15 recalls for ignition switch,andreprogram final drive controller module were performed.
Engine stalls no matter what speed i'm going. Happens more often when coming to a stop. It's as if i just turn the key off. When it stalls, i stop and put it in park, turn the key off and start it right back up and take off.it's becoming a dangerous safety concern.
While in motion, 60 mph, the engine stops. Highway driving. I coasted to a stop and restarted the engine. Very scary occurrence!
2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo - randomly the vehicle will not start, when turning the key to in the ignition you can hear the relay clicking, engine does not crank or start. When the key is returned to the off position the data display below the tachometer momentarily states that the transmission is overheated. The battery is fully charged and everything else, lights, horn, etc still work. There are no error codes dumped. The first attempt to fix this by the dealership was to replace the starter, now 4 months later the vehicle is doing the same exact thing. This has become a reliability issue in that there is no telling when this will occur, each time family members have been stranded with this vehicle, jeep dealership seems to be "stumped". I have read of many jeep vehicles that demonstrate this very same problem, without resolution. This can be an intermittent issue, usually have to wait until it becomes a "hard" fail before the dealership will look at it. This is extremely frustrating owning this vehicle not knowing when it will or will not start and whether the dealership can or cannot fix it!

Shortly after changing the spark plugs in my wife's 2007 grand cherokee overland the vehicle would stall on deceleration. I thought it might be an isolated incident, but the stalling continued frequently. The engine completely shuts down and the vehicle must be stopped or put in neutral while coasting to be restarted. After conducting some internet research i found this to be a common problem with the 2007 grand cherokees with hemi's. I was amazed at the number of occurrences of this happening among this vehicle. There are jeep forums (http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/2007-jeep-grand-cherokee-overland-stalling-problem-1147825/) that discuss this issue in depth. The vehicle stalls less frequently than it did when i first changed the spark plugs, but it still happens. The most recent occurrence was onnovember 1, 2013 when my wife was picking my son up from school. Chrysler corporation fails to take a stance on the problem denying that the problem exist. I have spoke to my local dealer's service department about the problem and they denied any knowledge of it. I would sale the vehicle, but in good conscience i could not do that to another individual. Several dealerships have replaced the upper and lower wiring harnesses on several vehicles and this seems to have resolved the problem. Again to restate the problem it seems to occur after the spark plugs are changed in the vehicles. This would lead one to believe that disturbing the position of the wiring harness effects the vehicle. Chrysler no longer manufacturers that wiring harness, as they are on the third version of it. This in itself would lead you to believe that chrysler has some knowledge of a problem, but will not issue a recall or take any official position. My main concern is for my wife and children's safety while riding in this vehicle. I ask that you please take an in-depth look into this situation.
Engine dies while driving.this happens randomly whether i'm traveling 10 mph or 70 mph.very dangerous!no warning signs or lights before shut down occurs.
While accelerating the vehicle lost power and the prndl lights all illuminated.after a few seconds power resumed.this has happened several times and the check engine light has come on.we have been told its error code u0404 and the electronic shift module needs to be replaced.it appears this is a very common occurrence for this year vehicle.it is a safety concern because if it happened during high traffic times it could certainly cause an accident.
Vehicle has had the ignition recall done.in the hot weather,you can't run the air conditioning as the car will indiscriminately stall when you come to either a stop light or a yield.car has to be put in park and restarted. Last week, when merging onto a highway, rpms went all the way down.had to floor the car to get going and it knocked very hard.had jeep dealer look at this several times and they keep saying there's nothing wrong with the car. There is a problem here that jeep is not addressing.they don't want to give a fair buy back price on the car, knowing we have a 19 year old driving the vehicle.our local mechanic has said this is a very unsafe car and he wouldn't put his family in it.jeep dealers don't want to face the problem or address it.this has been an issue for over a year, but becomes more apparent in summer months of hot weather.
The truck is a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. Once again as i was driving my vehicle shut down (jerked real hard) and i lost all driving capability etc power steering, speed control. . . . . I was driving on the freeway when my jeep shut down it was during morning rush hour traffic. It was hard for me to glide over to the shoulder when everyone around you is going 60 mph and you have no power steering. When i was able to get to the shoulder i placed the jeep in park and turned the vehicle off and removed the key and put the key back in and it started right up. This has been happening everyday now and why searching the internet i've ran across on here and elsewhere that i am not the only one having problems like this with my year and make. It is really dangerous and im surprised there hasn't been a recall yet or a terrible possible fatal accident due to the vehicle being non responsive in fast heavy traffic. This engine shut off without warning.i've noticed this happens when it is real cold outside.

For a couple years my jeep grand cherokee has experienced several episodes of ignition shut off.i spoke with my local dealer and they said it was not an issue with jeep, only some dodge models.i paid to have a 2nd computerized key made at the dealership, as dodge was saying their issue was related to the driver having other keys on ignition key ring.this way i had a single ignition key.still experienced the issue. Last time i was making a left hand turn from a subdivision on to a busy 2 lane hwy with a posted speed of 50 miles per hr.ignition shut off as i started to cross the right hand lane. Fortunately i had enough forward momentum to clear traffic and came to rest on the left hand shoulder by a farmers field.i finally received in the mail the official chrysler recall notice for my jeep due to ignition shut off. Called my local dealer this morning to set up an appointment, although the recall said they would contact me.with several incidents, i felt time was critical.my dealer advised me they had not received the official recall notification from chrysler and therefore could not schedule the repair free of charge.if however i wanted to pay for the repair they could schedule.i advised them that was not acceptable. Emailed chrysler customer relations and here also, my dissatisfaction and what appears to be a wonton disregard for human safety by a manufacture and their representative.
Ignition recall repairs made.engine still stalls suddenly and without warning, while driving or stopped.after putting car in neutral or park, have to remove key and reinsert it to start engine.no power brakes, power steering, or air bag functionality when this occurs.engine does not always start right away, leaving me stranded in the middle of traffic lanes or intersections.serious hazard.have taken it to the dealership again and no diagnosis.to attempt diagnosis now at dealership, am charged $130.if no diagnosis made, then i have to pay the charges.this is an untenable situation for which the jeep manufacturer is not willing to assist - i have emailed chrysler about this.to get rid of the car, i would have to trade it in at a dealership since it is not sellable privately due to this problem.the car stalls in motion or at rest and has quit on city streets and freeways - very dangerous!!!so far i have been lucky and have not had an accident.it has quit while in turns and when going straight.it is more likely to occur when the car is cold or the ambient temperature is cold.one day it stalled 5 times.
2007 grand cherokee repeatedly lost engine power, power steering and braking. Unclear on loss of airbags. Vehicle taken to bob caldwell jeep dealership in columbus, oh. We were informed that no recall existed for that year/model. When we returned home we received notification for chrysler regarding details of recall. Immediately called dealership and they were like "oh, that recall".they had given us a $4000 quote to repair the problem prior to our bringing the actual recall notification for chrysler. Caldwell then told us that no part existed and they couldn't help us. Today i contacted chrysler and received a reference #693786. It is supposed to track the non manufactured part when it actually ships at an unknown future date.chrysler is not able to remedy this defect within a reasonable time..at this point actually they cannot fix at any time as part does not exist. This situation puts my family at great risk. Chrysler states jeep is safe to drive...let's hope so for our sake.
Happened 3 times.only ignition key on key ring.car shut off when pushing gas peddle after coming to a stop at a neighborhood stop sign.coasted to other side of intersection, turned off key and restarted.car shut off after pushing gas peddle, making left hand turn after light gave green arrow to enter a freeway on ramp.pulled off to side of freeway ramp turned off key and restarted.car shut off after stopping at an intersection stop sign. After cleaning traffic pushed gas peddle to make a left hand turn onto a busy highway with 50 mph speed limit. Car shut off again.was able to coast to shoulder of road avoiding oncoming and approaching traffic. Shut off key and restarted. Merged into approaching traffic.received recall in sept 2014.have been in contact with chrysler customer service continually. They continue to advise they have no parts to repair recall defect and therefore cannot make a recall repair appointment.i feel they are playing russian roulette with my life and those of others on the road who may strike my disabled car after ignition shut off.
The trans struggles to shift through every gear and wont shift past 3rd gear, sometimes even stalling me in traffic.feels like it doesn't catch the next gear when accelerating.there have been times when i've been stopped at a light at an intersection and when i go to accelerate, the engine will just rev as if it's in neutral, but it's not.therefore, the acceleration is veryweak.when switching from park to drive, it either doesn't fully click into drive or it selects all gears (prnd) in which i then have to park the car and shut it off, then retry a minute later.i don't drive the vehicle as a manual so there should be no reason for it to stall, but i'm pretty sure the issue stems from the main computer in the shifter module.at times, it seems like the vehicle is expecting me to shift it from gear to gear, then it finally clicks and moves to the next gear on its own.

The dealer was unable to diagnose the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
Engine shuts off randomly while driving. Has been happening since 2005
Every time it rains the jeep wont start been to the garage twice they all think its the starter but then you let it sit once its all dry it fires right up so no one is sure why and what's happening but happens every rain storm.
My husband and i were traveling to charleston, sc on i-26 to have a nice valentine's weekend.everything was fine until we merged onto i-26 in columbia, sc, when we felt a small jolt in the truck like it was hesitating or something.so we dismissed it as maybe bad gas or something.it happened a couple more times and as we were passing a rest area outside of orangeburg, sc in the left lane going with the flow of traffic at about 80 mph, the whole truck just shut down.no power steering and the car will not crank in neutral.traffic is pretty heavy on a holiday weekend, and i have tractor trailer beside me and behind me on a two lane interstate.trying not to panic, i put on the hazard lights and waving out the window like crazy trying to get these truck driver's attention, thank god they noticed and the one beside me sped up and my husband was able to get over by the exit of the rest area.after thanking god for our lives, we decided to try and make it to a dealership in orangeburg.we get there, and after 2 hours they say it was the throttle body and a tune up$300 bucks and another 2 hours we finally got on our way.we made it to charleston and salvaged a pretty good day trip considering what we went through, with no problems.it jolted once on the way back about 40 miles from home.so the next day i remembered we had gotten a letter from chrysler, and when we looked at it we realized that the recall was the real problem.this letter came in september of 2013, and we have not heard anything from them since then, almost 2 years later.also, you would think that a jeep dealer would know about recalls on all of the vehicles they sell when they put the vin in the system.now we just use the one key, stay close to the right lane and hope for the best.another car/payments is not an option.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v4380000 (electrical system); however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. While driving 50 mph, the vehicle stalled and all of the warning indicators flashed on the instrument panel. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the median. The vehicle was able to restart after various attempts. The failure recurred. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the engine failed and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000. Parts distribution disconnect.
Vehicle will shut down without warning. This happens when vehicle is idling or at speed -any speed. The engine will shut down, steering locks up and brakes shut off. Secondary systems like radio and fans will continue to operate but there is otherwise no power.this problem has been occurring on and off for two years. Dealer and mechanic both could not find solution to the problem; however, an electromagnetic field from distributor/spark plugs theorized as the culprit. Adding shielding to the pcm computer cables and grounding it seems to have mitigated the issue, however it is still sporadic and has caused near miss accidents with pedestrians, motorists and stationary objects while making turns.
While traveling at 75 mph the 5.7 hemi engine shut off as if someone turned off the ignition key. No warning lights or any indication there was a problem. The engine started right back up and we continued on our way at a lower speed of 65 mph. Twenty miles later the same thing happened. This happened a total of four (4) times in a trip of approx. 400 miles. An online search indicates this dangerous problem is occurring in other vehicles. The customer service rep at chrysler jeep claims they have no information about this problem! the frightening thing is that there does not appear to be a remedy for this issue. Will not be driving this vehicle until i can get it into a dealer for them to attempt a repair.
On september 9 i was driving back from my grand daughter school and as i was pulling on my street, the jeep shut off without warning. I had no check engine light on or any type of warnings. I had to coast into my driveway. It doesn't start at all. It had an oil change and fluids in jeep. It did it without warning
Took in jan '15 for recalls - they only fixed 1 of the 3 (i had made an appt for all)in dec '15 it kept leaving me stranded as the recalls had not been fixed.they finally fiixed the other 2 (service 4 wheel drive and ignition switch.i called 3 weeks ago as it kept saying "service 4 wheel drive" and several times shifted itself into 4 wheel low.now it won't start and is stuck again.less than 60,000 miles and it is worthless.
While i am driving my jeep will buck and shut down.i then had to make my way over to the side of the road on the highway while cars are going 65mph or greater and my speed is slowing down.when i was able to pull over and stop.i had to remove the key and place the car in park before it would start.the first few times i tried while in neutral and moving to the side of the highway it would just continue to click and keep clicking.this has been happening several times a day now and my route to work is 95% highway.it is scary that someone might hit me and cause a terrible accident.i noticed this has happened to several jeeps around the world with the same issue.i noticed a recall for the jeep going into neutral but nothing about this major issue about the car bucking and stalling while driving.i noticed my jeep had its ignition switch changed out some time ago also.i wonder if he had problems before he traded.i have no other car to drive or i would and i have spent over $500 trying to find out what the issue is.please start investigating before someone gets hurt.
While driving the transmission will slip into neutral and revs high, all gears high-light on the dash board, and this happens at multiple speeds many different times? there have been several times this has almost caused my husband and i to have an accident. I was told by the dealership that a recall has been issued and to wait until notified??? this is not something to take lightly and having almost been in accident(s) i feel this needs immediate attention.
The vehicle has a safety issued at this point it is unsafe to drive. The clockspring is bad due to manufacturers errors. When the vehicle is driven, the vehicle is losing power due to engine mechanical problems. The clockspring has a code stated as c2205 on the computer module. The steering wheel shakes going over 60mphat this point i do not know why.

I was driving 65 miles per hour on the expressway, when suddenly, my jeep began to decelerate until it reached about 40 miles per hour, even though i maintained constant pressure on the accelerator pedal.it felt like i had no control over the speed of the vehicle.traffic was light so i coasted, and pressed the pedal a little harder, until eventually, the suv lurched and then started to accelerate.about 3 minutes later, the same thing happened again while i was still driving on the expressway. The vehicle decelerate to 35 while it seemed that i could not control the speed, and then accelerated again. After the acceleration dropped and then increased the second time, i was able to maintain 65 miles per hour until i exited the expressway 15 miles later near my home.driving a vehicle under these conditions is a horrible feeling!i was so afraid that a car or truck moving at the normal speed would crash into me. If the traffic had been heavier, i would have had to pull over to the side of the highway, which would have been even more terrifying, because it was dark outside, and i had no idea what was going on or how long i would be stranded. We just had the suv's engine tuned one month ago at the dealer's service center, and we also had the oil changed at the same time.there haven't been any episodes like this until now. I'm actually afraid to drive the jeep again!
Had the transmission warranty recall update done, now i am getting a "service 4wd" light. In doing research this is very common on jeep's who had the recent warranty update. Jeep needs to correct this problem. In some cases dealers are replacing actuators under warranty and in some not. My dealer, ed tomko jeep in avon lake, ohio, would like to charge me to take a look at it. Chrysler/jeep needs to pay to correct this problem.
On 12/5/2012 my 2007 jeep grand cherokee limited with only 33,466 miles stalled on the highway at about 60mph. I almost got into an accident because of the loss of power steering and brakes. I thought this was an isolated incident however since then the stalling problem has been increasingly getting worse to the point where i recently had to take my jeep to the dealership for repair. The dealership was courteous, but unfortunately told me that the hemi engines have this known problem for stalling and they had to change out $1500.00 worth of parts to hopefully fix the problem. Sadly my extended coverage did not cover the cost due to the lack of chrysler/jeep not being able to give them an actual broken part number. It seems chrysler/jeep is just playing guessing games to fix the problem! while researching the web i came across a web site called "www.jeepforum.com" and found out that there are hundreds if not thousands of people who are suffering this same problem and it is very clear to me that this problem should be recalled by chrysler/jeep. Sadly i know this will fall on deaf ears at the nhtsa as others have also stated on the jeep forum web site, but i'm hoping by taking the time to write this post that it will inform anybody who is considering to buy a jeep vehicle to think twice as chrysler/jeep are producing pure junk vehicles that you could end up compromising your life and others around you! remember hundreds if not thousands of people can't be wrong!!

The manufacturer stated that the vin was included in nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system). The failure mileage was 94,707.
The engine shuts off for no apparent reason.it can happen at any time whether at a stop, or at any speed.i never know when it will shut off.when the engine shuts off, i shift to neutral, turn the ignition off and then back on and start the engine.it will not restart unless the ignition is turned off. The engine runs fine after that normally.happens every 50-100 miles and tends to occur more often in warmer weather.there is no specific action that has occurred prior to the occurrences such as filling the tank.dealers have not been able to pinpoint the problem and no obd codes are disclosed.i estimate it has happened 200 times.
Shortly after my husband got home we heard someone honking their horn outside of our apartment, so we looked and our vehicle was on fire. It was parked and not running when it happened.
As i was driving the truck jerked real hard which almost knocked the wind out of me and i lost control of steering, speed, i was unable to start thetruck.i had to make my way to the shoulder in morning traffic on the highway to put the car in park and turn the ignition off and start it over again i had to do this 2 times before it started. Proceeded to get back into traffic and it jerked again this time it stopped running and startedclicking all by itself until i stopped the truck and turned it off and started it again.this is not the first time this has happened and it very dangerous and from the looks of things this is a ongoing problem with this model & year jeep.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving various speeds, the vehicle stalled without warning on numerous occasions. The contact stated that the vehicle was placed in the neutral position in most cases to keep the vehicle from losing power completely. On other occasions, the contact pulled to the right side of the road and the vehicle lost power. The vehicle was taken to sherman dodge chrysler jeep ram in skokie, illinois where the following series of repairs were performed on the vehicle: the oxygen sensor was replaced along with the spark plugs, the fan clutch, coil #6, a drive control module, throttle control module, fuel injection service, decarbonization service to combustion chamber, and upper intake to the vehicle but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 95,000.
After driving approximately 30 miles on the interstate i stopped and went into a store. When i came back out in 5-10 minutes and attempted to started it, the engine felt as though it were "jumping".had it towed to the dealer. They said it had dropped a valve seat. Chryslerdetermined that it happened because it had been overheated. However there were absolutely no overheat codes in the computer. The gauges have never read hot. It was not low on coolant. They stated that there were no leaks. It was never hot.

The diesel engine jeep put in grand cherokees, the 3.0 litre mercedes-benz engine, has a "swirl valve" problem and has since it turned 75,000 miles.it causes the car to not accelerate properly and is very dangerous when pulling out into traffic and going up hills.it also makes the gas mileage to plummet.repairs were told to me by the dealer to be $5,800.we cannot afford to repair this car.the dealer told us the engine would go 300,000 miles, no problem.
3.0 liter crd has had multiple problems from purchase to include air intake, oil systems, and seals.engine is unreliable and does not seem to last more than 5,000 miles before needing major repairs.based off of my experiences i believe the engine is faulty and can lead to safety issues while driving.in a 3 year period vehicle has been quoted as needing in excess of $20,000 in engine repairs.air intake clogs with oil.oil system leaks from multiple locations to include engine oil cooler, and intake runners.back engine oil seals leak.turbo clogs with engine oil.vehicle has 46,000 miles on it.

As i was driving on the interstate my jeep (2007 overland 5.7l hemi) shut off at the speed of 65mph with no power steering it was hard for me to try to get over as my jeep was going slower and slower other cars are approaching and honking and scaring me.i thought i was going to be hit. I was able to pull the jeep off tot he side to put the car in park and try to start it again.it took a few times and it started but acted sluggish all the way home and believe me i stayed on the shoulder side and went real slow.they should recall this because this isn't the first time this has happened to me or other jeep owners from what i have read.## vin failed ##

While pulling out of a gas station into heavy traffic, i began accelerating to the speed limit of 45 mph.i was accelerating rapidly as traffic was coming quickly from behind.the jeep stopped accelerating and the instrument panel showed all of the drive letters with boxes around them.the jeep would not accelerate for over 20 seconds, causing me to rapidly pull off of the road to avoid traffic behind me.the dealer found a faulty electronic shift module and replaced it.the vehicle has worked well until 2/15/12.at 70,000 miles, the dealer installed module has failed again.once more this happened when entering a heavy traffic roadway.there have been numerous reports throughout the internet of people experiencing this same issue. In my case, both failures resulted in me having to take evasive action to avoid a collision. I find it hard to believe that this seemingly common problem has not been identified as the tremendous safety problem it .

2007 jeep grand cherokee (16,000 miles) shutdown on freeway. I was in the left lane @70mph. I had turn flashers on and move to the shoulder.no accident, no injury, car started on first try on the shoulder.
I purchased the car from a 5 star dealership in antioch at an auction. After driving the car for about a month it would refuse to start. There would be times when i would stop and turn my car off and then the engine would not work. Sometimes i would be put in an unsafe situation and it has happened about 8 times. Each time it happens i call the 800 number and have jeep tow my car, which is still under warranty, to the nearest jeep dealership. Each time it has been there they have changed module in the engine and within the transmission. The engine has been taken apart and still the problem persists. My car is currently in the repair shop again and it has been extremely frustrating. I brought up lemon law, however, they tell me that since i am the second owner this clause does not apply.

2007 jeep grand cherokee, new, 6,000 miles, stalled at stop light.
Originally having issues slowing down going around corners and up a steep incline. Felt like vehicle was staying in higher gear, you could down shift it manually.at that time there were no codes present in the system. Then last year in august 2011 we did a cross county trip (7000 miles) vehicle would stall at both low speed and high speeds, not every day.sometimes vehicle would restart itself and others the key had to be removed and reinserted, but most times not. The weather did not seem to be a factor.upon return vehicle had approx 45,000 miles, codes retreived from vehicle were multiple. Active codes: b2105, c121cpending code: p0524 stored codes p0129, p0688, p0884. At 35,000 miles new oem spark plugs and water pump (due to coolant leak) with new antifreeze. Vehicle is serviced regularly every 3,000 miles since new. Since 45,000 miles all related circuits and components have been inspected and checked for proper operation. New crank sensor and electrical ignition switch. Code b2105 keeps recurring even without stall. All wiring connections and grounds have been cleaned and checked, new battery at 36,000. Had vehicle to dealer and they said they may not be able to find problem. We have stopped driving this vehicle even though we are still paying for it because we feel that it is not safe.my husband has 40 years as certified automotive mechanic and is very frustrated with this vehicle.

I write this only because i just experience my fourth mechanical breakdown in three years.in december 2009, i experienced the first breakdown in what has become a string of malfunctions.the transmission on my 2007 grand cherokee laredo gave out at about 40,000 miles.when trying to start the vehicle, i got a 'transmission overheat' message on the dash display along with the engine malfunction indicator.i took it to the dealership where i purchased it andit took nearly a month for the repair shop to locate, receive and install the necessary parts.apparently supply and demand had something to do with it, indicating to me that this was an issue nationwide.a month later, another malfunction, this time, the electronic shift module (esm) had died.just over a year later, the same component (esm) died again (of course just out of warranty), this time while i was driving along rt. 50 outside of dc.now, less than six months later, with less than 40,000 on the already replaced transmission, my transmission has blown again - same 'transmission overheat' message, same engine malfunction light, same undrivability.clearly from seeing the comments on this forum as well as other reputable sites such as edmunds and consumer reports, the 2007 grand cherokee laredo has a long, long history of mechanical and electronic problems.i have a phone call scheduled with a case worker scheduled for tomorrow, 7/13/2012.they'll either make it right or i'll be taking my story to small claims court.i encourage everyone who's had issues with this model to do the same.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that on three occasions, the vehicle stalled and shut down completely with no power and no warning prior to the failure. The first time in 2008, she was sitting at a stop light and the vehicle shut off. The second failure occurred while she was driving approximately 50 mph and the engine shut off. The most recent occurrence, she was driving 50 mph and was able to maneuver onto the emergency lane, shift to neutral, turn the ignition off and re-start the vehicle with no hesitation. She was driving for 20 minutes each time the failure occurred. She took the vehicle to the dealership two times and the dealer told her that they could not diagnose the failure. She called the manufacturer and the representative told her that there was nothing they could do. The vehicle had not been repaired at the time of the complaint. The current mileage was 58,593. The failure mileage was 8,014.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee 4x4.on several occasions, the vehicle stalled and restarted on its own.other times, the vehicle had to be manually restarted.the vehicle was taken to the dealer, but there was no resolution.the current mileage was 34,000 and failure mileage was 29,000.
I bought a used 2007 jeep grand cherokee 2 years ago in alabama. We have since moved to new york state and they do vehicle inspections (alabama does not). When getting the vehicle inspected it was discovered that the cut out for the check engine light on the instrument panel is non existent. All other cut outs are present and the led for the check engine light is present and working. The instrument panel is stamped as being original and not aftermarket. Because there is not a cut out the led for the check engine light is not visible with the instrument panel installed and will not pass inspection. I have contacted my local jeep dealership (fx caprara) and they told me today that i have to pay to fix it. A new panel being $600 and a used panel from my local pick and pull being $125. I called jeep customer service today and they again told me jeep can't do anything and that it is up to the dealerships. I don't understand why it would be up to me to pay for this. It is a manufacturer defect and should be corrected on that level. I did my due diligence when purchasing the car but one cannot be expected to pull the dash panel to ensure all the cut outs are present. This needs to be resolved quickly as it cannot be used until it passes inspection. It also posses a safety concern as you are unable to know if there is a code present. Please get back to me with a resolution in a timely manner.
While driving the vehicle on the highway, it stalls without warning.

Vehicle will stall without warning. Has occurred at least six times over the past three months. The stall as occurred at speeds as high as 45 miles and hour. The vehicle has been taken to the dealer four times in the past six weeks for the same problem. The dealer has given us push back when we schedule another appointment because they cannot diagnose the problem. Our last appointment scheduled january 31,2009 they never even looked at the vehicle. The car stalled again at 45 mph almost causing my wife and seven month old to get rear ended.
Vehicle will randomly die while driving.this has happened multiple times and is really dangerous when the vehicle dies going 70 mph on the freeway in heavy traffic.once the vehicle dies it is easily restarted once stopped and then drives like nothing has happened.the vehicle shows no symptoms of this problem and it can not be duplicated but rather happens randomly.my mechanic can not find a solution as the vehicle shows no problems.i am afraid that the engine cutting out for no reason will end up causing an accident sooner or later.

My vehicle will just shut off. Sometimes it shuts off while in park, sometimes while stopped at a red traffic light, and sometimes while going 70mph on the freeway. It has been at my local jeep dealership for over 2 weeks now. They initially changed numerous control modules they told me are the "computers" or "brains" of the car and still the problem persists. At this point they have told me that they have had an engineer from chrysler come in to look at the vehicle and he has no clue why this might be going on. Help please!!
My vehicle stalls while driving.it happens while at idle at a stop light, and it happens while at speed.it hasn't occurred yet at speeds above 45 mph.everytime it stalls, i get a oil pressure warning light.i occasionally receive a electronic throttle warning light as well.i also occasionally receive a electronic stability program (esp)/traction control system (tcs) indicator light when my power steering cuts off due to the engine stall.the problem always corrects itself upon shutting the key off, and restarting the vehicle.i have had it to the dealership, and they haven't been able to diagnose nor recreate the problem.fyi, i recently had my 5 year powertrain inspection done by the chrysler dealership, and my jeeppassed with no noted issues.i have included a link to a website that shows many other people having similar problems with this vehicle.this vehicle is a safety hazard, and it needs to be recalled.here's the link to the website:http://www.aboutautomobile.com/complaint/2007/jeep/grand+cherokee/engine+and+engine+cooling+system.
I am driving a 2007 jeep grand cherokee with the 3.0 l diesel engine.complaint:when i was driving on the highway in the left lane my jeep stalled and as i was trying to change lanes i almost got hit.i lost power and it was hard to steer the car and ended up having to push the car with some help to the curbside. I was not able to restart the car. I know the jeep has a mercedes benz engine just like other mercedes that now i have also heard 2007 mercedes benzes with the same exact diesel engine have already been recalled.please note that jeep, with the same engine is having same engine problem and please recall so that people are not in danger.it was a very scary day, i could have been injured or lost my life or my childs life or another family.this was very dangerous and i am not feeling good about this engine on the road.thank you for addressing this issue.
I purchased a 2007 used jeep grand cherokee from kelly jeep on 3/11/2010, with an odometer reading of 24,758 miles.this vehicle has stalled randomly seven (7) times since the date of purchase. It has been returned to the dealer's service department three times and each time they have not been able to duplicate the cause of the stalling. The stalling occurs after a stop and then attempts to proceed into a turn at low speed. It occurs more frequently when a right turn is being made. The engine stops and all electric energy are lost, just as though the ignition was turned off. Braking assist and power steering are lost. I have provided the dealer a document listing and observation of each of the seven events. Several have places me in a comprising position and if traffic had been heavy could have resulted in a serious accident.the vehicle always is able to restart after it stopped, the ignition turned off and placed in park.
Vehicle lost power (engine rpm went to idle) for no apparent reason while turning onto a multi-lane hwy and accelerating. Power was restored and vehicle accelerated normally. Vehicle "check engine" light illuminated. This has continued to occur several times in the last month. "check engine" code u0404 was verified through jeep is the "tcm" transmission control module.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle lost power while attempting to brake from 30-40 mph. The failure was experienced several times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who test drove the vehicle and was unable to duplicate the failure or locate a failure code. The dealer replaced the oil valve, air filter and cleaned several areas within the engine, but the failure was not corrected and the vehicle continued to stall while driving at any speed. The manufacturer took a complaint and advised the contact to take the vehicle to dealer. The vehicle was not repaired.the failure mileage was 38,000 and the current mileage was 45,000.

I have been having a stalling problem for a couple months now.when i am at a stop sign or red light, my car will start to idle very low and then completely die.it will restart when i put it in park and turn the key again.the next time i try to start my car after it stalls, it usually takes about 10 seconds for it to start when turning the key.my car has done this 5 times now.ithappens about once a week.my car also idles very low, very often when i am stopped.it does not stall everytime though.everytime it happens i take it directly to the dealership.the dealership keeps telling me nothing is wrong with my vehicle, and they don'tknow why it would be dying when stopped.

Without warning while driving 2007 jeep grand cherokee with crd (common rail diesel) engine with about 4,000 miles on odometer under light load in light traffic with about 3/4 tank of fuel on a hilly rural highway at about 50 mph the mil ("check engine light") turned on and within a second or so, if not simultaneously, the red error light indicating malfunction in the electronic throttle control system illuminated and began flashing.driver immediately slowed to 30 to 35 mph, activated emergency flashers, and changed route to return vehicle home, at that point about a 15 mile trip on a combination of hilly rural highways and suburban arterial roads.about 10 miles later while climbing a hill in a blind curve on a rural highway with no shoulder in moderate traffic at about 35 mph the engine stalled bringing vehicle to halt.in the shoulderless blind curve there was neither visibility nor room for following traffic to pass, thus creating an extremely dangerous condition.driver was able to restart vehicle but it then seemed to operate in "limp home mode" and did not seem able to move faster than about 20 to 25 mph before stalling again.vehicle then stalled repeatedly in the last 5 or so miles back to home on hilly rural highway in moderate traffic, and restarting attempts became progressively more difficult.by the time vehicle was returned to owner's property the engine would not start except to run for a few seconds before shutting off, and vehicle having become completely undriveable then had to be pushed to a safe place to await tow to selling dealer for service.driver contacted selling dealers service department to report problem, and service appointment and tow to selling dealer are pending.
The day after i bought the brand new 2007 jeep grand cherokee diesel, i unlocked the doors with the key fob, opened a couple of the doors and loaded my luggage, then i did the key sequence on the keyfob (lock+panic) to turn off the beep when you lock the car. After all this i tried to start it (correct starting procedure - wait for glow light to go out) and the starter cranked the engine with no firing at all. I repeat and wait 5 times over about 5 minutes, it failed to start each time. Finally after i have waited about 2 more minutes, i tried again and it fired right up like it is supposed to.i am concerned the car could fail to start again.updated 01-16-08.
Multiple times while driving my vehicle has suddenly lost power.i will be going 70 mph or 15 trying to accelerate and then it stalls out and won't accelerate.i will pull off to the side of the road and turn my car off and then back on and it will correct itself most of the time.i took my vehicle to a transmission place and they didn't know what it was.the conducted a transmission flush and replaced some electrical wiring and it seemed to help for about 4 months.now just last friday (20 april 2012), i was trying to accelerate after pulling out into traffic and almost got broadsided because the car just wouldn't accelerate past 2.5 rpms and 10 mph.luckily the car heading straight for me slowed down and i was able to get out of the way for on coming 55 mph traffic.i looked on numerous websites and an ungodly amount of jeep owners have reported this same issue.i took my vehicle to the jeep dealer yesterday (23 april 2012) and they said they had to replace the electronic shifter module.i was getting codes u0404 and u0103.it cost $1051.50 to fix.i checked on-line after, and that is what everyone else said that the jeep mechanics would recommend even though it would just break again 3 months later.one man even noted that the mechanic said that they have changed over 1,000 of those in his shop alone.i feel that this is a major safety issue and should be recalled!jeep obviously knows this is going on.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 50 mph the vehicle stalled momentarily before restarting itself.the contact was able to continue driving approximately 1 mile before the failure recurred.during the failure the check engine and traction control lights began illuminating on the dashboard. The failure continued to recur while the vehicle was taken directly to an authorized dealer where they were unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 12,000.
Check engine light continues to come on at random. When it does, problems accelerating. Car will not accelerate past 20 or sometimes car "sputters" jerking a lot. Sometimes at red lights, rail road crossings, anything really where the car is stopped, car will not resume driving and car sounds like it is in neutral and i am reving it up. Electronic dash puts a bracket over each gear, p r n d, all at once. When engine light is on it is on for a period of days. When i turn the car on and put it in to drive it makes the most horrible sound as if i backed into a wall and jerks. Sometimes on the highway when the light is on it's as if i smell something burning through my air vents. Everytime i take it to the dealer or any shop just for a diagnosis it's just my luck that the light turns off and they tell me my car is fine. This car needs to be recalled from looking at the complaints!!!
On oct.5th as i was merging onto the thruway at 55mph the truck just stopped accelerating in rush hour traffic. I put on my flashers and coasted to the shoulder just barely avoiding being rear ended. This was the second time this has happened with this vehicle. You could press the gas pedal and the rpm's would go sky high but the truck would not move while in drive. I turned the truck off,waited several seconds,started the truck and it moved in drive. I immediately called the dealer and have a oct.7th service call.this was a near death situation the second time due to the rush hour traffic. This vehicle has trouble shifting when started in the morning. After looking into the matter this appears to be a common problem with this model and make. It appears the electronic shift modules need replacing.after reading the numerous similar complaints i thought i would file a complaint before someone gets killed.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee 4x4. The contact started the ignition andd a loud, rattling noise emitted from the outside of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who detected a faulty catalytic converter. The technician explained that the entire exhaust system must be replaced in order to perform the catalytic converter replacement. On two separate occasions the engine power was significantly low during acceleration. The manufacturer and dealer were notified of the defect. The contact scheduled an appointment for the vehicle to be repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 80,100.

Driving at night, doing 50 mph when vehicle engine cut off - could not pull off road, apply brakes or steer.towed in. "repaired by dealership" only to occur again in 6 days when engine would not start at all.again, sent for repair, five days in shop. Occurred again the very next day - would not start. Has been at dealership another week and they still have no solution to problem. Husband is totally disabled and we must have a dependable vehicle. We bought it used with only 37,000 miles on it so we thought it would be almost new. Cannot take a chance of the engine cutting off while on a busy highway!
While driving the vehicle it started to accelerate and while stepping on the brake the vehicle went faster. I turned the key and the engine stopped and i went to the side of the road. I looked up a recall for this problem and there was a k 11 recall. When i contacted jeep they said my vin number was not part of the recall. Well i think there is a problem and they should investigate to extend their recall to include this and other vehicles. I will bring the vehicle to a jeep dealer.
We recently purchased a 2007 jeep grand cherokee limited 5.7 l hemi.it drove just fine for the 1st few weeks of owning it.recently it has started stalling when at stop lights/signs, while driving, and while in reverse.we have had the vehicle in the shop a few times already.it has been throwing off codes of p0884 and p0688.the dealership has informed us that those codes stand for power up at speed (p0884) and asd relay (p0668).we have just changed all the spark plugs and are now in the midst of changing out the coils everytime the jeep stalls, we have been doing this for just a few days and are now on #5 of 8 and it is not working.the dealership has run out of ideas as to how to get this fixed.this has become a safety hazard while driving.we have read reviews on several different websites and have found several other consumers with the same issues with no resolve.we have also read some reviews and they have stated that chrysler/jeep will not step up to the plate and state that there is a problem.i as a consumer find this wrong.this is a safety issue that i feel could save lives on the road.i don't know what else to do to get this issue fixed/resolved.i have now written down the numbers and address to contact chrysler/jeep and will be contacting them in the very near future, in the mean time this is what i am able to do.thank you
Was attempting to merge onto a busy freeway and accelerated up to 60mph when the jeep suddenly slammed into second gear and refused to shift. I couldn't get it to do anything other than "limp" very roughly to the shoulder. If people hadn't slowed down i would have been busted from several points. Took it to the local jeep dealership and they told me that it happens with jeep grand cherokees all the time and that they recommended replacing the esm but stated that it doesn't always fix the problem and that they've replaced thousands only to have it recur months later. This is going to get someone killed.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving 35 mph the engine stalled without warning. Within seconds, the vehicle would restart without driver intent. The dealer replaced the ignition switch, the power-train control module, and the electronic control module; yet, the failure persisted. The contact voluntarily surrendered the vehicle to the manufacturer. He was concerned that the vehicle would be resold since it could potentially cause a crash to occur. The failure mileage was 39,000 and the current mileage was unknown.
My jeep will just shut off while driving.it is not soon after starting so the engine is not cool.it has happened on the interstate twice without warning.there is not hesitation or sputtering, you just feel you are decelerating and then you realize you have no acceleration or power steering or brakes.i was in the far left lane and extremely worried i would not be able to safely make it over to the shoulder.other times it has happened on secondary roads and i have had to park it and then restart it in the middle of the road.when it starts and i put it into drive, it will not engage into gear.i have taken it to the dealer three times and they cannot find the cause but checked all sensors, transmission, changed spark plugs, pcm, and updated the computer.it happened again this weekend except it lurched first then shut off.i got online and see that many others have reported the same problems so i felt i needed to report it in the event this truly is a more widespread problem.thank you.
Vehicle loses power at interstate speed.incidents: 5-30-2007. Wife was driving vehicle on interstate. Vehicle just turned off after loosing power. Wife pulled to shoulder of road and put into park. Restarted engine. No 'check engine light". Took vehicle to dealership for system scan. Sonya rechtorovic at landmark dodge (770-968-4900)checked vehicle into repair. Received paperwork which says "customer states while driving on interstate, vehicle shuts off. No codes in system. All systems operating as designed. Test drove vehicle and could not duplicate concern." incidents have happened again on 7-1-2009, 7-4-2009 and on 7-6-2009. Lost power at interstate speed while driving. Engine light did come on, and i pulled to shoulder of road and waited a few minutes. Took vehicle to two different dealerships. "joe brooks" at douglas county dodge at 770-942-1102 and vic daniel at landmark dodge at 770-968-4900 or 678-251-2327. Both dealerships stated "out of warranty and would be $100 just to scan the system for errors". I took vehicle to autozone and had vehicle scanned for free. Received error code "u0404 code- invalid data received from gear shift control module". Seen recall d46 for 2005 jeep grand cherokee to reprogram pcm. I believe my 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo has this issue. Called chrysler at 1-800-853-1403 at 1045 am on 7-6-2009 and spoke with "dan thomas". Dan looked up my vin number and stated that "no recalls are for this vehicle and if a recall does come out, then a letter will be mailed to you".

Iown a new 2007 jeep grand cherokee that i had for two weekswith approximately500 miles on it.a couple of days after purchase i called the dealer to tell them that the engine service light was on. They said no to bringvehicle to dealeras it was probably due to a loose gas cap, and would go away in a couple of days.however, this week when driving on the highway at 70 mph the jeep stalled.the fuel gauge dropped to empty from 3/4 full, and there was no acceleration on the vehicle.fortunately i was able to coast to the far shoulder of the road.i took the key out and restarted the engine, and the full guage went back up to 3/4 full and i was able to resume driving.i brought it to the dealer and they were unable to replicate the problem....they said the vehicle is fine.the reset the computer so the engine light went off.the next day after bringing it home from the dealer, the engine light came on again and i am bringing it back in next week.i have already contacted a lemon law attorney as i fully expect the problem to happen again.i saw an article that you were conducting an investigation on this problem, and wanted to add my name to the list as this stalling problem is extremely dangerous.i feel very fortunate that i did not crash after losing power at 70 mph on a crowded highway.thank you for any help you can provide.

2007 jeep grand cherokee (5.7 hemi) with 50,000 miles frequently stalls both in motion and while stopped.stalling causes all electronics to shutoff, which results in loss of power steering and brakes.numerous times, i have almost been hit because the vehicle will nearly stop in the middle of the road.the vehicle has been taken to a jeep dealership four times for the stalling issue, which has not been resolved.the dealer claims they cannot replicate the issue.this random stalling is a severe safety hazard that endangers both me, my passengers, and people driving around me. There are thousands of posts on the web referring to the same stalling issue with the jeep grand cherokees (wk) and the jeep commanders (xk).does someone have to be killed before anyone takes action?

My jeep has the same 3l diesel engine which has already been recalled in nhtsa for dodge sprinters campaign id number : 07v594000and all 2007 mercedes diesels.nhtsa campaign id number : 08v006000.i have previously filed complaints.please recall the diesel jeeps too!!updated 10/08/0.
After driving about 40 miles on highway, then turning onto local streets, all warning lights on dashboard lit up, message board flashed "transmission overtemp" warning, then "check gauges" warning.the vehicle went into limp home mode, no gauges worked, including speedometer.once shut off, vehicle took a while before it would start again.had vehicle towed to dealer.dealer could not replicate or diagnose problem.i believe this is related to the crankshaft positioning sensor problem that prompted a recent recall of this engine by mercedes benz (3l crd engine).chrysler would not acknowledge this problem.
Engine stalled while driving, and then would not restart.fortunately i was going slowly approaching a traffic light or the stall could have lead to a collision.my 11 month old son was with me, and then we were stuck blocking traffic at one of the busiest intersections in town.i have heard this is a problem with my vehicle, the 2007 jeep grand cherokee crd.we could have been killed had this happened on the highway.
I have a 2007 jeep grand cherokee diesel. Bought new, nov. 07. At about 28k miles, on may 24, noxious fumes started coming through the a/c vents while idling, after coming to a stop. Took to dealer. They had it for 3 days, got a run around, they said chrysler tech line said it was normal, told me to set the a/c system on recirculation. Service manager admits he smelled it but they couldn't find the problem. Called chrysler tech line, they said the same thing also that i should take it to a dealer with better technicians. Problem is getting worse, stinks, causes eye sting. Probably exhaust fumes, smells like a natural gas leak only worse!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving 50 mph the vehicle stalled. The contact was able to start the engine for a couple of minutes and the vehicle stalled again. The dealers diagnostic test revealed that the egr valve exhaust caused the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and scheduled an appointment to inspect the vehicle. The failure and current mileages were 105,000.
Car simply stalls - in intersections, on roadway for no reason. Drive train, fluid leaks car is unsafe.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving 20 mph, the vehicle stalled and was unable to be restarted. The check engine light illuminated prior to the failure. The vehicle was inspected by the dealer who stated that the failure was caused by the catalytic converter. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.
Today while driving on a highway at approximately 35-40mph my vehicle stalled. I had come to a complete stop and was awaiting a traffic light change. When the light changed and i stepped on the accelerator the vehicle began to hesitate and jerk and the esp/bas light, malfunction indicator light (check engine) and a message stating transmission over temp came on. I was in the left lane and immediately put on my flashers. The driver behind realized that i was in trouble and put on his as well. After i was able to roll to the shoulder, i immediately turned the vehicle off. After waiting approximately 5mins, i restarted the vehicle and continued to drive slowly and carefully to my office since i was just 2 blocks from work. This experience scared me because had this happened while i was driving at the 60-65 mph rate on this very busy highway, i could have been hurt. After reading several of the other complaints, i can also relate to the complaint about the tires having had to replace a broken stem after owning the vehicle only 2 days and i currently still have water leaking into my vehicle on raining days on the passenger side and now through the lights. I drive on the highway daily and after today's stall out, i am afraid to drive this vehicle. I called the dealership today and explained my issues and told the service manager about all of the lights and he told me the car was probably cold and if the lights don't go out i can bring it in on saturday. Well today is wednesday and i will not drive that car again. Since the dealership is quite a distance from my home,i will have the car towed so that it can be checked out. I am very uncomfortable with the idea of ever driving this vehicle again. I transport children as part of my job from time to time and i could never forgive myself if something was to happen to them while we are riding in this vehicle.
Auto transmission gear shiftnot shifting into gears correctly; loss power around curves; sometimes engine light comes on; sometimes all gear indicators come ondash;feels as though can't accelerate when entering onto highway or passing.nothing done yet.called dealer, online searches.very very many same-similar online & very expensive repair $700+.appearsto be defective part & should be recall/dealer replace/repair!!
The tire jack is unstable for the vehicle.i have had mine collapse and not tall enough for the vehicle.i watched a man almost get pinned by a jack failure on a 2011 jeep grand cherokee.mine is a 2007.does anyone check this equipment.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep cherokee.the contact stated that the air condenser, located below the center of the bumper, has a very large opening.the large opening allowed a rock or some other foreign large particle to puncture the air condenser.as a result, the air conditioning system failed.the vehicle has not been repaired because the failure was not covered under warranty.the manufacturer has not provided any assistance.the contact has pictures of the failed component.the failure and current mileages were 13,000.
While driving or parked with engine running all dash warning lights flash on and off any interior lights that are on turn off, radio turns off and heater/ac and fan turn off for a couple seconds then turn back on. Usually the check engine light will then stay on for a few more cycles. Engine, power steering and brakes and head lights all continue to work throughout the cycle. This will happen numerous times in one day or go for a month without doing it at all.
The dashboard went blank, no speed information, etc, all the warning lights lite up as if the vehicle was being started. Steering became hard, was a very scary moment!
2007 (pre and post) have rear tail light assembles that work intermittently. Jeep replaces(for approximately$200) broken taillight assemblies with new units having the same defect. Their design happens to fail around the 30,000 mile point (by intention?).jeep will not return broken parts when requested for inspection (they don't want these reaching your office).light bulbs are not the issue.this known jeep defect keeping their assembly line running at the expense/risk to jeep occupants or any vehicle following a full size jeep. Plus they are making money while endangering others. Do the statistics of jeepsshow they are rear-ended more often?how convenient if this is the case and the evidence is damaged in the accident. Look on-line for the dialog or just look at jeeps on the road and you'll see a brake or tail light out in a much higher percentage than any other vehicle. I notice an after market light assembly was recalled (std. 108), no amber light.how about a recall for a light that may or may not work at any given moment? which is worse?
When turning left or right at slow speed the engine rpm drop from about 600 rpm to 300 or 400 rpm and then stalls. This happened 11 time in 2010 and then final disappeared. It now happen in 4 times since 24 march 2014. Twice it happened in northern nj as i tried to enter the garden state parkway, once in a shiopping mall and two weeks ago as i was turn off the main road into my street. Recently i have written the dealer where i purchased the vehicle explaining the problem but i have never received evenan acknowledgement. I was told by chrysler customer service that i would have to have an expensive analysis done. When this was done in 2010 they could not find anything. I was told they had to see it happen. Ihad it happen 1000 ft from their facility, but they refused see the vehicle unless it was towed. I feel that this is a very dangerous situation especially when it occurs turning onto a high speed highway.
There are no brake or tail lights or brake lights when it is dark,everything works in the day light, very dangerous to drive without any lights in rear of car.
09/29/2008 jeep taken to garage for head light failure nothing found. 03/09/2012 to 11/07/2012 all indicator light flash exterior lights flash. Been to the dealership three times for numerous days at a time they can not find anything wrong still having this problem. Really not good when it is dark out and you don't have headlights. At 15,000 and 35,000 i had to have the shift modular replaced because all the car would basically go in to neutral when being driven.i would have to pull over and turn the car off and restart it.the first time it was at the dealership for three days they could not find a problem and sent it home only to have to return 2 days later with the same problem. As i have found many people on line with these same issues makes you wonder first why these issues can't seem to be fixed, second why there has not been a recall.it is truly a miracle that no one i have heard of has been injured or killed because of these defects.when the jeep is working i love it. If i had a hope and a pray of getting a new vehicle i would trade in my paid off jeep in a heart beat so that i wouldn't have to constantly worry that it stop running or that i will be driving blind in the dark.sadly i didn't even touch on the other electrical issues i.e. Window that had to be fixed remote keyless issues it is sad that the company doesn't do anything about these things this will be my last jeep. I feel that these problems are dangerous for me, my family and anyone that is on the road with me and other jeep owner with the same issues.
Sometimes when driving at night with the bright lights on and you pull the lever back to dim them to oncoming traffic the headlights turn off too, literally leaving you in the dark. It happened last night and has happened several times in the past. I feel this is a very dangerous and scary situation that should never happen!
I have a 2007 jeep cherokee laredo. While i was driving at night, in the dark, my headlights and interior lights began to flash on and off. Realizing what an extreme danger the jeep was to me and all others on the road i immediately took to the dealership. The dealership said they were unable to diagnose a problem and told me to continue to drive the jeep. Its happened on 5 different occasions after and every instance i have taken it to the dealership with no resolution nor a diagnosis.
If this 2007 jeep 4wblow up. And i die. It is not worth my life. And every i callthey do not the ignition switch/ p41/nhtsa 14v-438.this my 2ndnotice. Andi am disabled.
I would be driving down the road and my jeep will shut off all by itself and then turn back on all while driving down the expressway doing 75mph my steering wheel and lights and breaks would all lock up then the jeep would just pop back on and then the rpm's would be really high so i would have to hit the breaks to slow way down so my jeep wouldn't blow up on me . I've taken it to like 5 mechanics and they can not figure what's wrong with it . Then also i can get in my jeep and start it and my radio and backup camera won't work and some of my gages wouldn't register when i start it ups don't start going down the road so i will have to pull over shut my jeep off and pull the key out and open the door to make sure everything is off then put the key can in and restart it and sometimes it will work and sometimes i will have to do it a few times to get it to work .
Went in for inspection and found out my vehicle has a small gas leak and turn signal and stomp lamps not working brake lights not working and emission system -obdii system faults
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the headlights and interior lights intermittently failed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the failure could not be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was not available.
When the vehicle is in motion all the panel or dash lights (oil, engine,tire, brake etc)go on and off and the car lose power. I took the car to the dealer and they could not find the problem.
2007 and newer jeep grand cherokee and laredo has a programming defect in the brake lights.if foot is on the brake, removed then quickly reapplied the brake lights do not come back on.only the third/center brake light comes on.this only occurs when the headlights are on so you still at least have the taillights.but no right or left bright brake light. Dealer duplicated the problem on all units in their stock.chrysler acknowledges the problem but is doing nothing to correct it.i sold the vehicle last month as i won't drive a vehicle with defective brake lights.
While vehicle is in motion a front dashboard lights would flash for a while and suddenly goes dark including head lights and brake lights. This is not in any correlation with weather, temperature or road conditions. This has been happening randomly and due to safety concern we no longer use the vehicle for a family trip and we do not use the vehicle at night since all electrical components goes off while it is in motion.per online search it appears there are numerous jeep owners experiencing the similar malfunction. This is a very serious safety issue, so why the manufacturer has not issued a recall to have this repaired?
While driving my 2007 jeep grand cherokee, i experienced a random loss of dashboard lighting, gauges and heater. Have seen multiple post pertaining to exact same issue with many different solution suggestions. Common belief is that best solution is to replace ignition switch (ironically same issue that has been recently recalled by chrysler, but not yet fixed via many dealership's services despite several notices that they are aware of the issue.) seems very irresponsible for manufacturers /dealers service to allow this risky defect to continue to occur for years without a common formal resolution for dealerships to adhere to. Consumers are left to scramble as best they are comfortable with to resolve while some dealer service centers and mechanics take advantage of these people by overcharging them for fixes that don't resolve the true problem. Please push this issue to common resolution as many consumers seem to be bother literally and figuratively in the dark as to the correct direction!
My daughter was just driving her 2007 jeep grand cherokee and the engine cut out while driving about 70 for about 10 seconds she lost head lights brakes ect. The car then turned back on automatically before she stopped and the esp, abs, bac,traction control lights came on. This is so dangerous and seems to be s common problem.is there a recall?if not shouldn't there be?my husband already replaced the ignition switch regulatorabout two months ago because the lights were going on and off.that repair seemed to have fixed the issue.the serpentine belt is also squeakinglike crazy.it has been. Replaced twice.first with an inexpensive belt then with a certified belt.
The following events happened over a period of 2weeks.when in motion on highway, instrument panel lost power, then came back on and all control panel lights lit up, then went off. While in motion on highway, instrument panel went blank--cycled on and off several times then returned to normal.when engine was off, ignition was off and key was out of ignition, lights were turned off, headlights turned on and off twice for no reason.while driving on highway on slight incline, engine lost power for a few seconds then returned to normal.vehicle has been to a certified jeep repair shop and they could not find the problem.(see attached)
There was a red lightning bulb that came out on my dash
Jeep discontinued automatic headlamp level position system during early of 2007 without explaining. Everytime, i tow and then headlamp had blinded several incoming vehicles. It was irresponsible for chrysler do that situation. I was told due shortage of parts and they decided to resolve the situation by discontinued for a temporary basis. I feel they should put the system back on 2007 models for safety purpose during towing.
The vehicle tends to lag or stall during normal driving times.if you accelerate then let off the gas, then try to accelerate again, the car does not respond.it is like there is a dead pedal.it takes roughly a second for the car to respond, which isn't that long until you consider at normal in-town speeds, you can go almost 100 feet in a second.just enough time to get plowed in to!
The fuel return assembly on the 3.0l turbo diesel engine leaks fuel due to the failure of the clamps on the hoses and the o-ring at the return assembly connection point. This has been acknowledged by daimler benz and chrysler as a technical service bulletin on other vehicles with the same powertrain and could result in a fire but has not been recalled.
While drivingon rt 66 w in pw county va during rush hour traveling at 70+ mph the dash lights flashed, the red light indicating electronic throttle control illuminated and the car suddenly dropped speed to 20 mph and would not respond the accelerator peddle being pushed to floor.cars behind me drove off in the median trying to avoid me nearly causing a major chain reaction.so far i have spent $4000+ in repairs and cause cannot be found.there are 100's of complaints on this issue in the various internet blogs.it appears that the mercedesbenz and chrysler 300 crd having this same engine has been recalled due to same symptoms.this vehicle needs to be recalled before someone is killed, if that has not happened already and the accident was not properly investigated.
While driving the vehicle it started to accelerate and while stepping on the brake the vehicle went faster. I turned the key and the engine stopped and i went to the side of the road. I looked up a recall for this problem and there was a k 11 recall. When i contacted jeep they said my vin number was not part of the recall. Well i think there is a problem and they should investigate to extend their recall to include this and other vehicles. I will bring the vehicle to a jeep dealer.
Have received a notification (several months back) that there is a recall on the fuel tank. Impact explosion risk. Every time we call the local dealers--we have tried several--none of them have a resolution, or they say they don't have the parts. When is this going to be addressed?
While driving the vehicle loses power no matter how much gas you give it. The engine light comes on and off every few days. All the gear indicator lights are highlighted.
Fuel supply line ruptured in engine compartment. The result was fuel under pressure spraying on the engine. The rupture was not a complete loss of supply to the engine so the engine continued to run while fuel sprayed soaking the engine compartment in fuel. The dealership reported that the line must have been moved and would not stand behind the part that was defective. The vehicle has been owned by my company since new and the area in question had never been dislodged since new.
I hadmade a left turn, begin to accelerate, and all of a sudden, car begun to shut down, car slowed down, until it came to a stop. Took car to dealer, problem was not fixed, continued to have same problem over next several years.i was unaware, and never received a notice of recall for transmission problem.i turned the power off, wait about 1 minute, started vehicle and it ran fine.during the ride, electrical panel began to flash, everything was turning on and off.gas gauge, and every other gauge on the panel went up and down.every light on the panel flashed on and off.this has happen many times over the years as well.i recently took vehicle to dealership in november 2013, who told me they could not fine anything wrong with my car.just in the last few weeks i have had this electrical problem, march 2014.what is wrong with my car, how can i get is fixed?what do i do if i have a recalled vehicle?
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While refueling the vehicle, the vapors from the fuel tank would not allow fuel to flow evenly into the fuel tank. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to whitten brothers of ashland (11409 washington hwy, ashland, va 23005, (804) 798-6071) where it was diagnosed that the vent valve failed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was unknown.
Push on gas nothing happens. Continue to hit gas pedal then it kicks in. Has happen several times. Happening at least 2 to 3 times a weektaking in tomorrow 6/20/09 because was bought new with 18 miles and now 37,000 miles on jeep ( pass warranty of course) to be covered i would think pulling out into traffic it would be considered a safety issue. Talk to a mechanic that has work on several with a fly buy wire acceleration being the problem.
While driving on the interstate at 65 mph, the vehicle's engine stalled. I had to put the vehicle in neutral, turn the ignition off an back on to restart it. This first happened just after the 30 day warranty was over, as i bought the vehicle used in may of 2012. Since that time, the vehicle has stalled at highway speeds or when slowing down for a stop on dozens if not hundreds of occasions. The spark plugs, egr valve, ignition coil, pcv valve and map sensor have been changed to no effect. There are no meaningful diagnostic codes stored in the obd-ii system. I feel this condition is very dangerous, as i never know when the vehicle will stall, causing a loss of power steering and brakes, and the ability to accelerate out of harm's way. It is my understanding that many of these same vehicles with the same engine are having similar issues. I can no longer let my wife or teenage son drive the vehicle because of this condition.
Went in for inspection and found out my vehicle has a small gas leak and turn signal and stomp lamps not working brake lights not working and emission system -obdii system faults
The vehicle experienced significantly reduced power while driving in freeway traffic.it was necessary to move to the far right lane and exit the traffic flow.this has happened on several occasions since.several emissions systems parts were replaced and the problem has recurred.it is unsafe when the condition occurs in heavy traffic.the vehicle has a 3.0 litre diesel motor manufactured by mercedes benz.
I have had this vehicle to the multiple dealerships since i owned it.there is a two second delay when you push down on the accelerator.dealerships can't find anything wrong.i replaced the catalytic converters, 4wd module.every light comes on, check engine, check gas cap etc.it now gets horrible gas mileage and the transmission stopped working.this has been a lemon since day one and jeep refuses to correct the situation.it is at the dealership now.
Intermittent stalling issue. Initially the vehicle starts and runs fine. After stopping or extended driving duration the vehicle will random start stalling and check engine light flashes and dings. This will last for a few minutes sometimes and other times the entire trip. The last few times this has happened we were nearly rear ended and pulled over until it was somewhat drive able.i am terrified to drive it at this time for fear it will cause an accident. This has been an ongoing issue for a few years and has recently gotten worse. We've taken the vehicle to the jeep dealership several times and have had numerous parts replaced but nothing has resolved the problem. The last trip to the dealer they said they could not replicate the described issue. With the use of a scope and code review, my husband has taken to replacing smaller, simple parts in hopes of a simple solution....spark plugs, 02 sensors and catalytic converters. Nothing has helped. Please help resolve this issue. Seeing all the other similar complaints, how many does it take to start an investigation or recall? it's a shame an accident it what it may take to attract attention to this issue.
My only complaint is that after i received a notice months ago that there was a safety recall on my vehicle reference the fuel tank could experience a fuel leak during a collision, i have had no response from the capital chrysler dodge jeep dealership located in at 200 waterfield ridge place, garner, nc27592.phone number is 919-582-0202.i've called them twice and i was told the parts were not in and i felt like there was ample time for the parts to arrive.
I bought my 2007 jeep grand cherokee overland in june of 2011 with 52095 miles on it. In march of 2012, i experienced the first of many stalls happen to the jeep with 60,980 miles on it. It has random, unpredictable stall outs that happened through out the year. It seems to stall when accelerating however not all the time. It's stalled while driving on the highway (mass pike or rt. 9) and on side roads. I have not observed any precursors to the stalling. When it stalls, it bucks and then the jeep does not accelerate however the lights come on, just like what happens when a manual vehicle is stalled. These types of stall outs i experience do not happen all the time. What happens sometimes is the jeep will buck, like it's going to stall, but it doesn't after slamming on the accelerator. After a stall out, i am able to restart the jeep after a minute or two. The engine light has never come on, just the oil light. This jeep has had the ignition connector and software replaced twice in over a period of two years. It's been replaced because of a stored code: fcmcgw b2185 . There are two other codes stored in the computer: pcm p0884 and abs c12k. I have taken the jeep to dan's jeep in westborough, ma since the first stall out to the present. The recent stall out was friday, january 11th. This stall out was a little different because "programming assess" (something like that) appeared on the dash with a blinking red light. Everytime i bring the jeep to dan's, they give me the same response to the problem...they don't' know why this is happening and i can start replacing parts to see if it corrects the problem. I do not have the finances to just keep replaces parts to see if it'll correct this serious and unsafe problem with the jeep and chrysler has not reported how to fix this or made the step forward to fix it.
Been having starting issues for at least 6 months. It starts sometimes and other times have to wait a few hours to a few days. The last 2 days won't start at all and has drained my less then a year old battery. 3 weeks ago windows will roll down or up whenever they want. Doors lock and unlock at random. I believed my car is possessed. Reading more and more i realized my tipm is bad. I have learned with all the random things with this jeep that i will never buy one again. It is a very dangerous car and too many issues, with no resolution other then i have to empty every pocket to fix it. It stalls when driving it shifts into all gears slows me down when i'm on highway at a very unsafe speed. It is unreliable and i put my life my kids and others at risk while driving. Sadly, i believe jeep doesn't care about safety since there is 1000's of complaints with same issues. It also says my air bags won't work because the tipm is bad.
I purchased my jeep a little over a year ago used. I have had numerous problems since i have purchased it. First it was thought to be an electrical problem since the car would randomly shutter, would not want to start or just turned off. Battery was replaced multiple times, since it would leave stranded at any given time. The engine light comes on, but there has not been a solution to what it can be. I feel very unsafe in my car, and i am not sure what to do at this point. When i turn the car on, there is a loud hum or propelling sound coming out of the engine. When i come to a stop you can feel the car shake when the noise happens.
Takata recall all the dash lights come on from battery,check engine,low tire pressure, code read 0411 & well not pick up speed.
The jeep has electrical stuff happening sporadically and does not start but with power but after 3 to 6 attempts starts right up. I turn key all power and bells go off and it makes a humming noise and 1 click noise dash says' transmission over temp' the jeep is cold so not over temperature.i've seen a lot of post about recall and also about ignition switch or module. I've only owned for 2 years and dealer said car had no recalls when i purchased.this happens stationary and also after driving about 20 minutes to destination and when i went to leave it took several times before starting. This has been going on for last 3 days but few messages randomly popped in information center few times before this had at dealer on computer no codes said it was okay
Jeep looses power, will not accelerate over 30 mph.this has not happen on a highway yet (luckily) only in-town driving.no error codes present in dtc report or from a diagnostic that cost $90.00 something needs to be done about this before an accident results in a fatality.there seems to me many instances like this on these boards.this is the first investment of a 'real' vehicle that i've had.to pay money for something dependable is the goal.currently this vehicle is not dependable, let alone safe.
Rear corners of the fuel tank corrode due to design of tank and tank mount, tank protection armour. Dirt, moisture, mud, road salt, etc get trapped in between steel tank and steel cradle and tank corrodes. This causes pin holes in the tank, and eventually larger holes, or larger areas of weak corroded metal.
The beginning of july the check engine light came on. Two days after that the check gas cap came on. I bought an after market cap from autozone. The problem didn't go away. I took the car to the dealer and they replaced the purge solenoid and esim module the check engine light was off when we picked up the car. The next day when it was started the check engine light and gas cap light came back on.took it back to the dealership and they replaced the gas cap. We were told to give it a few days for the system on the car to reset itself. It didn't. So took the car back to the dealership. This time they found a small leak at the esim module that was replaced? told us they were ordering a new gas tank and we could drive the car until it was replaced. Now i hear air escaping out of the fuel tank from the gas cap and it will not accept fuel without being forced into the gas tank.
The fuel return assembly on the 3.0l turbo diesel engine leaks fuel due to the failure of the clamps on the hoses and the o-ring at the return assembly connection point. This has been acknowledged by daimler benz and chrysler as a technical service bulletin on other vehicles with the same powertrain and could result in a fire but has not been recalled.
Vehicle stall out at various speeds, or when idling stationary.comes on without warning.seems these stalling problems are common with 5.7 hemi jeep grand cherokees, even according to the dealer. This is a serious safety hazard as power steering and brakes are lost during a stall.an inoperative vehicle in a traffic lane could suffer a rear-end collision from this condition.please help by ordering a recall from chrysler company to remedy the problem.nothing seems to remedy the situation and it keeps occurring.
Design traps crud between the skid plate and fuel tank.over time, removes the paint and causes corrosion. Hole in fuel tank causes loss of fuel. Jeep is selling $1,650 replacementtanks at a rate of 5 per week.others are trying to repair the tank. See jeep forum:http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/rusted-out-crd-tank-3106977/
Started with traction control light flashing, then it slowed vehicle felt like brakes were on, gave it more gas and got no speed increase, pressed on the brake and then it seemed to surge and speed up on its own. This was unexpected acceleration &could have lost control. After this! it went back to normal driving. Next day took a 110 mile trip traveling 70 mph on highway no issues until i arrived at destination pulled into driveway and putin park and several warning lights came on abs, esp, bas, &traction control light flashing & service 4 wheel drive...i had no problems until i stopped...when i started up to return home all the above lights stayed onbacked up out of driveway , when i put it in drive and gave it gas it started to make a bad grinding sound like metal on metal a clunking sound and did no't respond to fuel peddle.i increased speed then i felt it release like park brake being released...it drove normal back home dash lights still on,... 110 mile trip doing 70 most of the way...at home i used the built in vehicle scanner and got code u1417 which indicates front left wheel sensor... I replaced both sides same grinding sound, replaced the 2 back sensor... Now i have no lights on dash and no grinding clunking sounds no sounds at all. But when i drive i get the traction control light flashinggiving it gas i can no't accelerate above 25 mph ,seems to release at lower speeds below 25mph but it feels like the brakes are on and something it decreasing engine power... This is a dangerous problem! when i pulled unto traffic and i could no't get up to speed i almost got into a broadside accident... I thought i had fixed the problem tested it in my driveway no dash lights on ,and no grinding or clunking sound so what is it now?... Is it some traction control problem seems to be a fathom problem a lot of jeep owners are having!!
Red "bolt" idiot light appeared, motor could not go above 45mph, no more than 16mpg.pulled over immediately and tried to find a dealer or service facility. Vehicle could make it the 5 miles back to apartment. Searching the web, the jeep/mbenz "swirl motor" apparently has a design defect.the oil vents back into the air, which causes sludge and tar, which then closes the swirl motor vents causing it to stop.with only 66k miles, here are the spectrum of complaints in north america and the uk. If this is certainly a design fault, this may cause other motorists quite a bit of money or cause an unsafe or panic situation for a driver with small kids stranded when this breaks.please look into forcing the jeep or benz motor maker to help out owner with a fix or at least free sludge cleaning of the swirl motor of tar/oil.

I was driving on the freeway in san jose, ca and the engine light comes on and a flashing red electric light also.i immediately noticed an immediate loss of power in the vehicles engine and when i pressed the gas pedal the jeep didn't respond at all.when going up a hill the jeep loses power and i have to downshift in to lower gears just to climb the smallest hills.i took the vehicle into the dealership and the parts department employee said that my swill values are bad.i found evidence that the engines in this 3.0l turbo diesel have been recalled in europe due to this design defect.the repairs are $5500-$6000 and their are no guarantees that this will not happen again.why has this issue not been addressed here in the usa?i am a full time student with very little extra income.because the engine light is on this vehicle will not pass a smog test.basically i have a jeep that in a few months will be non operational with a $500 an month payment.
I have received a notice that there is a recall on this vehicle, it has been over 8 months and the dealers are no closer to having a solution to fix the problem than when i was first notified. I understand that the dealers are as much in the dark over this recall as the customers.what can i do as a customer to speed up this process.
Auto transmission gear shiftnot shifting into gears correctly; loss power around curves; sometimes engine light comes on; sometimes all gear indicators come ondash;feels as though can't accelerate when entering onto highway or passing.nothing done yet.called dealer, online searches.very very many same-similar online & very expensive repair $700+.appearsto be defective part & should be recall/dealer replace/repair!!

After application of safety recall n23/ nhtsa 13v-175. Reprogram final drive controller module. 2005 - 2010. (wk) jeep grand cherokee. 2006 - 2010. (xk) jeep commander, the transfer case of our grand cherokee could not be shifted out of 4-high to 4-low. This was discovered while attempting to use the vehicle to launch a 7000 pound sail boat on a marina launch ramp about a week and a half after the n23 reprogram was made by an authorized dealer.this demonstrates the software is defective and potentially dangerous by creating an unexpected safety issue.
As i was driving my car jerked real hard and all my dash lights came on and my ability to drive my car was useless.my jeep slowed down on the freeway during morning rush hour traffic almost causing several accidents.as i was trying to restart my jeep it just keep making a clicking noise and wouldn't stop.i had to pull the key from the ignition and reinsert the key and try to start the jeep.after 3 tries it started and i went to drive off and as i was accelerating my jeep did it again finally it stayed on and i was able to drive to a safe location.my jeep sounded real strange not like normal.this is the 5 or 6th time this has happened since i had my jeep not even a year to date.
Was attempting to merge onto a busy freeway and accelerated up to 60mph when the jeep suddenly slammed into second gear and refused to shift. I couldn't get it to do anything other than "limp" very roughly to the shoulder. If people hadn't slowed down i would have been busted from several points. Took it to the local jeep dealership and they told me that it happens with jeep grand cherokees all the time and that they recommended replacing the esm but stated that it doesn't always fix the problem and that they've replaced thousands only to have it recur months later. This is going to get someone killed.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving at any speed, the vehicle decelerated without warning. The vehicle was taken to tacoma dodge chrysler jeep ram (253-475-7300, located at 4101 s tacoma way, tacoma, wa 98409) where it was diagnosed that the alternator needed to be replaced. The alternator was replaced, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the same dealer where the egr valve was replaced, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000. Consumer replaced my ignition switch.
Jeep does not start. Message saying transmission temp over.
Vehicle lost power (engine rpm went to idle) for no apparent reason while turning onto a multi-lane hwy and accelerating. Power was restored and vehicle accelerated normally. Vehicle "check engine" light illuminated. This has continued to occur several times in the last month. "check engine" code u0404 was verified through jeep is the "tcm" transmission control module.
The drivers window regulator is not working. Second problem is when i start my jeep up and put it drive it sometimes makes a clunk noise , like it' going in hard and all the boxes light up around the p.n.r.d. And it has no power. I have to turn it off and restart it and it clears it up.
I have two problems with the vehicle that make it unsafe to drive.the first is that the engine randomly stalls.most of the time it stalls when the vehicle is stopped.sometimes it stalls at very slow speeds. When stopped, sometimes i hear a "thunk" right before it stalls like it was trying to go into gear.it has done this running in park and when the brake is pressed while in drive. It has stalled on me in busy intersections putting me in unsafe situations.turning the key all the way off and back on will restart it. The second issue is that the transmission randomly gets stuck in 4th gear.it happens most often when a lot of power has been applied from stop.but it also happens randomly. When it occurs, i pull over and stop the engine turning the key all the way off.usually when i restart it will go back to drive and all the gears in the transmission function normally. The issue is so chronic now with the transmission that it immediately goes into 4th and the vehicle is not drivable.it is at the dealer now.the dealer pulled codes and recommends replacing the transmission solenoid pack.this part is currently on national backorder and there is no eta of when the part will be available to the dealer.also there is no guarantee that this part will fix the transmission problem.if it doesn't, the vehicle will require a new transmission.they are not even looking at the stalling problem until the transmission problem is resolved.the stalling problem is very serious and i cannot confidently use the vehicle without fearing putting children in an unsafe situation.there should be a safety recall by chrysler on these vehicles.
The engine stalled while at cruise speed (not accelerating) and with no warning.there was 1/2 tank of gas; the mil did not illuminate.upon loss of engine power, all power assist systems (e.g.: brakes, steering) ceased to operate.i successfully restarted the vehicle by shifting into neutral and turning the key as far toward "off" as is possible when the vehicle is not in park.on the second attempt, the vehicle restarted with no mil illumination.
#1. V-8 the vehicle accelerates out of controll when accelerating from a stopped position, no consistently but intermitently' appears to try accerating to 65 mp cruise control. Must slam it into neutral to stop the vehicle in city traffic, extremely dangerous.#2. Transmission or powertrain is skipping lagging or bucking on acceleration from stopped position and from normal driving at all speeds, under 65 mp.can this be the computer?????
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving 40 mph, a warning message illuminated on the instrument panel indicating that the four wheel drive system needed to be serviced. The failure recurred intermittently. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the transfer case differential clutch failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 130,000.
Jeep shifts out off park when key is not in the ignition. I do not need to press the brake peddle to shift out off park. Jeep has had the14v-438 recall.

Was driving and vehicle would no longer switch gears from first to second. I was on freeway in construction area that was down to one lane and could not pull over for approximately ten miles. Not happy at all since the vehicle (2007jeep grand cherokee) has relatively low miles for a power train problem. My car is currently in the shop, but research shows this is a common problem with my model and a dangerous and expensive one at that. How is this not a recall?
While driving the transmission will slip into neutral and revs high, all gears high-light on the dash board, and this happens at multiple speeds many different times? there have been several times this has almost caused my husband and i to have an accident. I was told by the dealership that a recall has been issued and to wait until notified??? this is not something to take lightly and having almost been in accident(s) i feel this needs immediate attention.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that upon acceleration, the gear independently shifted into neutral.

I am writing to you requesting your assistance in finding out what is wrong with my 2007, 67,000 mile jeep grand cherokee laredo. For approximately four months while driving the car it has been randomly miss firing, bucking and surging, and stalling when coming to a complete stop.the unpredictability of the cars speed, bucking and surging, and stalling when stopped is a major safety concern to me because this occurs without notice on both street and freeway driving. I have taken my car to the nearest jeep service dealer, crystal chrysler jeep three times now and they have not been able to diagnose the cause to this problem.in fact, my car has been in the service department at crystal chrysler for nearly three weeks now, and they cannot identify specifically what is causing this malfunction.my frustration over my beloved jeep grows because without finding the cause there is no telling when my car will be ready.this experience now has me questioning the reliability of jeep vehicles and the confidence in service dealers like crystal chrysler.please help me find out what is wrong with my jeep vehicle.
The dashboard went blank, no speed information, etc, all the warning lights lite up as if the vehicle was being started. Steering became hard, was a very scary moment!
When stopped at a stop light on a very congested road.i pressed the accelerator to proceed when the light turned green.i experienced a slow sluggish start so i pressed the accelerator further to the floorboard, there was no response by the engine.car proceeded at a slow rate of speed (10 mph with rpm's at 2500).i had to pull off to the side of the road and restart car which did somewhat fix the problem.i have experienced this numerous times now, usually occurs when the car is shifting in 1st and 2nd gear.my concern is when i pull into a right of way and the car does not properly accelerate i put myself and passengers at a safety risk of being collided in the rear of my car by another car.
Driving down road and engine stalled. Loss of power steering and power brakes. Put car in park and the car still moved wouldn't restarthad to switch ignition off and take key out of ignition before engine would start. Stalls at random without any engine malfunction lamps. Hazard to be driving on road. Problem still unknown and vehicle is out of extended warranty.
While driving 60 mph down busy road the engine died, when accelerator was pressed there was no power, dash went completely dark. Pulled to the side of the road and the vehicle would not go into park. After several tries it could be restarted. The shift control module has already been replaced due to previous problems.
Complaint submitted in regard to fca us llc recall p41 nhtsa 14v-438first complaint filed 12/12/2014 odi number: 10663969on 8/19/2015, i was at the mukwonago post office to send a package. I came back out to my vehicle, started it and attempted to back out of my parking space when the steering wheel locked up and the engine shut off. Another car was on its way down the parking isle i was parked in and almost hit me because the driver was anticipating that my vehicle would have kept moving. I got out of my vehicle and apologized to the young lady who had almost hit me and explained to her the situation. She said, "you should really get that fixed. You could cause an accident." i was upset, to say the least, but needed to get back to work. I started my vehicle two more times, in addition to the first attempt, and attempted to put it in gear - no success. Finally, i was able to keep the engine running and proceed to my route.

Started truck shifted from park to drive. Started to drive, truck lurched forward and was unable to get it to speedover 20 mph. Tried pulling over and putting in park, still was unable to get truck to drive normally. Had same issue previously, had truck repaired was told that it was the electronic shift module - along with the battery, transmission control module and alternator - this seems to be a problem with this particular model - when will they recall this - do we need to wait for someone to get killed before some realizes there is a problem?
Had my low mileage/ perfectly maintained jeep in for service. They performed the n23 recall because of a faulty chip that causes the transfer case to go into neutral and roll away. A week or so after having this performed i went to lock my jeep into 4wd low and my "service 4wd" message appears. Is reading the same code everyone else with this problem is having after having the n23 recall performed. 4wd low worked flawlessly when i used it the week before taking it into the dealer. Whats funny is the service writer said "there have been a few cases the 4wd low stops working, but those cars had high mileage" when i asked him what the recall was and if anything bad had come from it.

I was driving on county road about 45 mph battery light came on then abs light then message service anti lock brake system, engine and brake light they stayed on till i got home there was also a very low humming noise when i turned off car it would not start again. In morning it started i turned it off and it will not start again. Battery and engine light on. 11/19/15 recalls for ignition switch,andreprogram final drive controller module were performed.
The transfer case is not allowed to go into neutral which is a requirement to tow behind my motorhome. I am 2,000 miles from home and the fault would require my wife to drive the jeep home instead of having it towed behind the motorhome. It is a safety issue as we take turns driving so there is an alert driver at all times, driving separate vehicles would require twice the drive time. This issue was caused by chrysler when they did recall n23. The recall was not properly tested resulting in the transfer case to not work properly.
My complaint is with the dealer. I received a recall notice regarding the transfer case actuator. When making the appointment with the dealer they agreed to look at it. Once i drove out to the dealership they refused to even look at the case since there is no fix yet available. I'm not happy that they even would look. So i feel that the dealer failed to remedy this defect in a reasonable time. I understand their is no fix yet, but to not even look brothers me. I'm a mother of three with one more on the way and i wish my dealer would of even listen and looked.
Jeep performed an n23 recall on 10/5/13 on my vehicle as a response to a former consumer complaint about jeep grand cherokee vehicles slipping into neutral while parked.after completing the recall, which reprogrammed the final drive controller module, i left the dealership and discovered that my vehicle could no longer enter 4 wheel drive low and receives a service 4wd system light.i have been notified by other owners that this recall had a similar effect on their jeeps.i contacted the dealer service department and they knew of no available fix.the service tech manager stated that 1 in 3 vehicles that have had the n23 recall result in the same problem.he says it is likely that 1 in 3 is the same proportion of people who actually attempt to use their 4 wheel drive low.on approximately dec 6, 2013, during an ice storm, my vehicle became stuck on the side of the road.i needed to utilize my4wd low to get back onto the roadway and was not able to.
I have been to the dealer 3 times for this issue. First it was my prnd lights would all light up at the same time and my acceleration would not work. Then my check engine light would come on and go off again after a few starts. Now the check engine light is on and the code is u0404 which i am told is the shifter/electronic control module. While searching this i have found hundreds of owners with the same problem, all right after their warranty ran out. I went to the dealer while still under warranty and it was not found now that i am 900 mil;es past warranty they know what it is. I feel if this many owners have the same problem it should be recalled. I completely lost acceleration while on the highway twice and was almost rear ended.
Anytime i go 50+ mph all i can hear is a roaring noise. We have replaced the whole rear end almost 3 weeks ago thinking maybe that was the problem turns out it not. We bought this car almost a year ago so we are unsure if any recalls on it have been taken care of.
Vehicle has stopped accelerating on multiple occasions.all of the prnd lights switched to having a square around them, normally, only the transmission position that you are in will have the square around them.while going 20mph the car stopped accelerating once until i came to a complete stop.had to put on hazards and had to turn off car and restart it in order to move again - was at least 45 seconds with no acceleration at all.problem has occurred five times so far.four times i was going between 15-20, and once going 50.check engine light has came on when this occurs too.four of the times it has happened i just made a turn and started accelerating, and once i was traveling a straight path.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle would independently start, an abnormal anti-freeze odor was present inside the vehicle, and the shifter was difficult to operate. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 141,000.
While driving, the prndl had lit boxes around all the letters, and dash indicators all lit up, and jeep lost power as if stalling. It then "went" back into drive on its own. This happened over eleven times, with mileage starting at 1,186, and most recently at 52,536. Dates of repair incidents are :2/12/07, 12/31/07, 1/10/08, 9/22/08, 1/5/09, 6/9/09, 6/18/12, 10/19/12, 12/26/12, 3/8/13, 3/22/13.my jeep is a 2007, averaging 8,756 miles per year. I bought it new and i take very good care of all maintenance right away - oil changes, filters, tire rotation, etc.! each time it was brought to the dealer for "repair" , they either couldn't find the problem, or replaced : shifter module (twice), transmission wiring harness (three times) and suggested a new battery (we replaced that also), and transmission plug and seal.there were also numerous "software and anti-theft updates.in addition to these, i replaced the driver's side window regulator twice.now, theywant to replace the "transmission temp circ." and esm module - for another $1,500.00 .all this in 52,536milesand 6 years !!!i firmly believe there are serious manufacturer defects with this vehicle. My biggest concern is the safety of this jeep is unpredictable. I never know, even after all the "repairs and replacements" ,if it will suddenly lose power and i might be in danger (traffic, intersection, etc.). How in the world could chrysler deny this problem? it needs to be resolved at the source, they are responsible for the safety of their vehicles !!!! there are many reports of this same issue from numerous 2007 jeep owners - where is the recall ???!!!!

The gear shift module is badly designed it uses a brush that drags along contacts to tell tranny what gear is selected. Over time though some of the conductive material starts to rub off and make connections between 2 or more of the contacts, when this happens the ecu and tranny can't tell what gear it's in and goes into limp mode 20 mph max a very dangerous situation i'm lucky i didn't get rearended by a very pissed off semi ruck driver recently. I'm sure some one has been injured and possibly killed by this badly designed and dangerous module.. Chrysler and benz were partners in 2007 and benz uses a touchless ( magnetic) system much safer. Jeep just keeps on putting in same part no improvements have been made the tcb tells dealer to put in a new part. The only warning sign you might get is all of the circles around the prnd on your dash will be lit showing you the module has no idea what gear it's in but no warning lights or buzzers. This has happened many times since 2010always with the vehicle moving and all of a sudden very dangerous!!
Driving down the road the car will not go over 45 mph. The only way to quick fix the problem is to turn the car off then back on then it will run normal. Also the car has stalled out when i was turning down the road and would not go until i put the car in park then put it back in drive.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee 4x4. While the contact was driving approximately 65 mph, the entire instrument panel illuminated intermittently. The vehicle suddenly began to decelerate.

Vehicle loses power when merging with fast moving traffic; needs to be shut down and restarted to regain power; later, check engine light came on sometimes; finally, won't go over 30 mph and check engine light is continuously on.i have extended warranty from portfolio. I brought it to the dealer's (auto world - patchogue ny) shop (generation kia - medford ny) 03 jun 2013, was told that i needed to bring it to a jeep dealer. I was told verbally that the fault was the transmission input speed sensor. On 05 jun 2013 i went to brown's jeep in patchogue ny and they won't commit to anything or give me a loaner car until the service is approved by portfolio.from the first month of ownership i had complained about rough shifting under certain conditions, but was told at brown's jeep that the transmission was ok. I have noticed some service bulletins for 'drivability' concerning the transmissions had been issued in some states. A lot of other owners have had the same problem, maybe a recall is overdue!thank you!
After having the n23 recall performed, the vehicle transfer case refused to go into either neutral or 4 wheel low drive.dealer reprogrammed the dtcm and tipm and corrected the problem.this was for the original owner.i purchased the vehicle in feb 2014.after working correctly for several days, the problem recurred.it is not safe the have an off road vehicle that cannot be reliably be shifted into 4 wheel low range, which locks the transfer case and provides true 4 wheel drive.as a result, of this safety concern and fiat chrysler's failure to provide a solution, i have installed a fdcm that has not had the n23 recall performed.this may also be unsafe, but can be mitigated by using the parking brake.fiat chrysler needs to provide a real fix to the original problem that does not cause other safety issues.
Vehicle stall out at various speeds, or when idling stationary.comes on without warning.seems these stalling problems are common with 5.7 hemi jeep grand cherokees, even according to the dealer. This is a serious safety hazard as power steering and brakes are lost during a stall.an inoperative vehicle in a traffic lane could suffer a rear-end collision from this condition.please help by ordering a recall from chrysler company to remedy the problem.nothing seems to remedy the situation and it keeps occurring.
While driving down the highway at approximately 65 mph, the transmission shifted into neutral. The gas pedal would not accelerate the car. The car had to be pulled to the shoulder amidst traffic and turned off, then turned back on before the car would accelerate again. This same scenario has occurred several times since.this poses a significant safety hazard for our family!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at an unknown speed, the vehicle stalled. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. In addition, the contact stated that there was a chime and an unknown warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had a specialist diagnosed the vehicle. The specialist diagnosed that the control module, the pcp to the power train, and the power train control module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure recurred on numerous occasions. The vin was included in nhtsa campaign numbers: 14v438000 (electrical system) and 13v175000 (electrical system, power train) however, the parts needed to do the repairs were unavailable. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 138,000.
The lights in my dash were flashing off and on while driving the vehicle, and the sunroof kept opening and would not close.also, when a door was opened on the vehicle, while the engine was off and no key was in, the headlights would flash, took to the dealer, they replaced the instrument cluster, problem still persist.while at the dealer they also attempted to repair the n23 recall, at that point i was advised that there were 8 software updates, which the dealer did without charge.after attempted repair of n23 recall, i was advised the 4 wheel drive in my vehicle was not functioning due the recall repair, it has been 2 months and to date chrysler has been unable to produce a part, the 4 wheel drive actuator, i contacted chrysler corporation numerous times to no avail, was advised the part is on restriction.it is dangerous!!!especially to think your vehicle is functioning properly and its not. Chrysler has done nothing to help remedy the situation.
On oct.5th as i was merging onto the thruway at 55mph the truck just stopped accelerating in rush hour traffic. I put on my flashers and coasted to the shoulder just barely avoiding being rear ended. This was the second time this has happened with this vehicle. You could press the gas pedal and the rpm's would go sky high but the truck would not move while in drive. I turned the truck off,waited several seconds,started the truck and it moved in drive. I immediately called the dealer and have a oct.7th service call.this was a near death situation the second time due to the rush hour traffic. This vehicle has trouble shifting when started in the morning. After looking into the matter this appears to be a common problem with this model and make. It appears the electronic shift modules need replacing.after reading the numerous similar complaints i thought i would file a complaint before someone gets killed.
As i was driving my jeep shut offand i was unable to steer and started to slow down in the middle of the freeway going 65 mph.i was unable to get out of the road and on to the shoulder causing several cars to almost hitting me.when the jeep stopped i put the suv in park and tried starting all it did was make noise.i then stepped on the brake and put in neutral and tried starting it and it wouldn't start.i waited a few minutes put the jeep back in park and tried again and it started but i'm scared to drive in now.this happened to me 4 times now but the other times it is when i am either coming off the freeway or on a city street not going that fast and in that much traffic.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the front drive shaft at the transmission failed. The drive shaft hit the ground and the other half of the differential joint caught on fire. There were no injuries and the police were not called.the manufacturer was contacted and sent an investigator to further assess the failure. The contact was awaiting a ruling from the insurance company and the manufacturer.the failure mileage was 58,000.
I was driving 40 mph and pressed the accelerator to speed up to 45 when my jeep lost power.i pressed the accelerator fully and the transmission did not downshift and the engine just kept losing power.this has also happened from start twice.it has happened at around 60 mph while getting on the highway.the only thing that helps is if i turn off the engine and turn it back on.then the car drives normally.i bought the car 10 days ago with 82500 miles on it.it's already acting up.
2007 jeep grand cherokee.consumer writes in regards to service 4 wheel" error code message appears when vehicle is put into neutral.the consumer stated he took the vehicle to the dealer, for repairs under recall 13v175000. After the recall was performed, he stated the following happened with the vehicle: when he attempted to put the vehicle in neutral, a message appeared that read service 4-wheel. He took the vehicle to a repair shop and was told the error code said the transfer case encoded motor was at fault. He had the repair done and had the transmission and transfer case serviced. The encoder motor had to be purchased from the chrysler dealer. Two months later, he attempted to put the vehicle in neutral and the same message appeared.he took the vehicle back to the dealer and they performed the same recall repairs. On april 24, 2014,the message appeared again. On april 30, 2014 the vehicle would not start, so it had to be towed to the dealer. They replaced the starter solenoid and both front window motors. Also, the service 4 wheel had appeared again. On may 2, 21 ,and 27 2014, the same service message appeared, as well as june 1, 2014.
Driving along trying to pick up speed and just held at 40, wouldn't accelerate.this happened probably 3-4 times.took it to dealer, they couldn't find anything wrong, said transmission operating normal.in 2012 it started not to accelerate beyond 20.i pulled out of a parking lot from a red light and it wouldn't accelerate.i quickly pulled over to the side of the road and called for a tow truck.i was afraid to drive it home.i was afraid i would get somewhere where i couldn't safely pull over.the dealer at that time replaced faulted esm module and said it was fixed and it was covered under my warranty.in july 2014 it happened again, exact same thing.i pulled out from a restaurant onto a highway and had no power, couldn't go over 20.i pulled to the side of the road, turned it off and started it up again and had no problems the rest of the way home.took it again to the dealer and he said there was some update to a recall that it should be fine.8/21/14 - just last week it did it again.i pulled up to a red light, stepped on the gas when it turned green and had no power.i quickly pulled over and waited and tried to go again, it still had no power.i turned it off and tried one more time, and it worked fine the rest of the way home again.it's a safety hazard to turn onto a highway or busy roadway and have to quickly pull to the side of the road.there isn't always a safe place to do this, and each time there has been people behind me that i was afraid to be rear-ended or causing a pileup.
Summary:the vehicle experienced significantly reduced power while driving in freeway traffic. It was necessary to move to the far right lane and exit the traffic flow. This has happened on several occasions.it is unsafe when the condition occurs in heavy traffic.

This is my second time in 10 years replacing the gear shift in the transmission in this vehicle.. The gear shift goes out every 5 years.. It starts with the engine light coming on then all the gears have the circle around all the gears. For example it likes like i'm in drive, reverse, park and neutral. When i'm parked. Then from there if i' have to stop or yield for and reason it's sometimeshesitante to move. Very scary
Engine stalls no matter what speed i'm going. Happens more often when coming to a stop. It's as if i just turn the key off. When it stalls, i stop and put it in park, turn the key off and start it right back up and take off.it's becoming a dangerous safety concern.
When you shift from park the prdnl will have a box around each of the letters. When backing up it slams into reverse and then slams into drive and the vehicle will only go 20 mph no matter how much you step on the gas.this has now happened 5 times and the only way it goes back to normal is to shut off the vehicle and start it back up.i have now seen numerous blogs where this happens at highway speeds, in the middle of intersections and is so dangerous to drive cause you never know when it is going to happen.from what i have read it looks like you have to replace the electronic control module at a cost of almost $800 to just have it go out again later and have the same problem again. This is very dangerous and scary!
While driving car it bucked several times and then would not go over 25 mph. I bought the car in aug 2009, 1 time was nov 12 2009, then again mar 15 2013 and then again jul 21 2014. All three times the esm shift module had to be replaced. The first time the dealer replace but the last two times i have had to replace at a thousand dollars. I have called chrysler as this is a recurring problem they have assigned a case number [xxx]. In checking online for issues this is a recurring problem with jeep grand cherokee's. If i had been on the highway and the speed dropped to 25 mph i could have been rear endedor worse killed.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Soon after the p41 ignition switch recall, while driving 1 mile,the instrument cluster gauges stopped working-speedo, gas, etc , all warning lights illuminated . Information messages in the ic noted"servicerequired : and transmission -over the temperature allowedu1403,u1411,u110e, u110fand others all implausible signals to ic. While driving transmission an road speed decreased immediatelywhile at speed and engine and transmissionto not operate in a predictably safe operation. These are the symptoms that the recall was to repair.what is the next step?
Shifts from park to neutral by itself,wont down shift at certain times,shift from drive to neutral at high speeds then shut off the truck.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo. The contact stated that while driving approximately 25 mph, the vehicle became hesitant and would not accelerate over 25 mph. The contact had to merge off the highway and restart the vehicle before resuming normal operation. The failure recurred on an intermittent basis. The vehicle was not inspected by a dealer or an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure and current mileages were approximately 65,000. The vin was unavailable.
After receiving recall n23, 4wd low no longer works.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 20 mph, the vehicle's acceleration seized. The contact had to shift to neutral then back to drive in order to regain acceleration. The check engine warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle experienced the same failure approximately ten times. The vehicle was driven to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the shifter failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 47,200.
It usually takes a good 10 to 15 minutes to start sometimes then when i do get it started i have the same issues that i have read about on this website and many other websites. The car will not go over 20 miles per hour and you have to pull off the road, turn off the vehicle, wait and turn it back on. It is almost like the jeep has to be reset. I have talked with several people and had the codes ran. It keeps coming up that it is the solenoid and starter. I have read on many blogs about the same issue that the solenoid wires are not protected from rain water in this vehicle and it causes them to corrode or go bad all together. This is an issue that needs to be recalled. If they know that the wires are not protected from rain water then there needs to be some type of protection that they can put over them or install a different kind of wire. This is costing people hundreds of dollars to repair something that should have never been an issue. Also this is a safety hazard because when we pull out on the road we expect our vehicle to excel properly and go over 20 miles per hour.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated the gear shift module caused the vehicle to lunge forward and backwards. The vehicle would not accelerate over 20 mph. There was also a warning light illuminated indicating the gear shift had failed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who replaced the gear shift module. The manufacturer was notified and informed her to file a complaint but offered no other assistance. The failure mileage was 98,300.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated the while driving 65 mph, the vehicle lost power and would not accelerate over 30 mph. The failure was experienced numerous times without warning. Two independent mechanics performed diagnostics on the vehicle, but were unable to generate a failure code. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 76,000 and the current mileage was 84,000.

My wife was driving and just about to get onto the interstate and with no warning, she couldn't accelerate past 25-30mph. Luckily she was able to pull to the side of the road quickly without an issue and turned the car off, waited a minute and started the jeep up again and was then able to accelerate. When talking to the dealer, they have never heard of this problem before. When jeep was checked at a local dealer, they pulled error codes that pointed to the transmission speed sensor. Only about $700 to replace that with labor!! the sensors are all part of the circuit board and thus need to dismantle the transmission to replace the sensors. Then i get on this site and see all the complaints with the same issue. This weekend i'm going car searching to get rid of this thing.
Purchased 2007 jeep grand cherokee overland 5.7 hemi july 31, 2007.december 1, 2010 my wife was traveling on an interstate at 65 mph when the engine suddenly shut down.she managed to pull the car off the road, started the engine and drove home without any more issues.dealership technician discovered p0884 code from the pcm.he could not find any problems.car continued to stall numerous times at high speed and sometimes while stopped at a stop sign or red light.this problem started shortly after the engine spark plugs were changed.after numerous parts were changed at the dealership, with no results, the technician contacted an engineer from the chrysler company.during an on site visit the engineer suspected there was an issue with the upper engine harness receiving an electrical induction from the engine coils causing the pcm to shut the engine down.the technician installed foil around the harness and wire tied the harness up off the cradles they lay in.engine performed normal with no shut downs for several months.decision was made to change the upper engine harness.since the harness was changed my jeep has stalled out four more times.the most recent stall occurred the last week of december 2012.this is an extremely dangerous situation to be traveling at interstate speed limits and your car stalls.chrysler places drivers in a situation with a vehicle that is uncontrollable while traveling on an interstate with cars behind you.i started an on line thread in jeep forum.com concerning this issue.http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/2007-jeep-grand-cherokee-overland-stalling-problem-1147825/.there are numerous other folks having this problem in the usa, canada, and hawaii.i think that an investigation should be performed to discover what is causing this issue and come up with a positive repair for customers that are having this problem.
I have had this vehicle to the multiple dealerships since i owned it.there is a two second delay when you push down on the accelerator.dealerships can't find anything wrong.i replaced the catalytic converters, 4wd module.every light comes on, check engine, check gas cap etc.it now gets horrible gas mileage and the transmission stopped working.this has been a lemon since day one and jeep refuses to correct the situation.it is at the dealership now.
Tl *the contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving 65 mph, the vehicle downshifted independently without warning. The contact stated that the failure recurred twice.

I was driving approximately 40 mph in the fast lane of a main two-lane residential roadway when the vehicle suddenly jerked violently forward throwing me into the steering wheel and then all acceleration and speed stopped.the steering wheel became abnormally stiff and difficult to turn however i was able to guide the completely stalled and decelerating vehicle to the slow lane and pull-off on the side of the road (with no side lane) with hazards flashing and traffic passing. This was an inherently dangerous condition as the flow of traffic was going approximately 35 - 40 in the fast lane at which time i completely lost power and had limited steering (more like coasting) ability.i was able to turn the engine completely off and restart, however the next day under similar conditions of normal driving conditions the vehicle jerked and stalled again, and restarted after a complete shutdown.this vehicle on the third day post the first incident failed to restart after driving to a local shopping destination and turning the car off to park.i left the vehicle at the location for approximately 4 to 5 hours and retrieved the vehicle upon which it started with a documented call into road side assistance program from jeep.the next day (monday) i drove to an authorized dealer upon which they stated the failure was the electronic shift module (esm) [(not to be confused with the electronic stability control (esc)] which controls the electronic signals from the computer to the transmission at a personal cost of $820.i believe this represents a known defect as currently 55 out of the 133 complaints listed here are describing a similar series of events and root cause, and would be willing to be involved in a class action law suit against jeep as life, limb and property are at stake.
My jeep will periodically not accelerate past 25-40 mph. The rpms only move slightly during an occurrence even if you have it floored and there is no warning lights. The only why to temporarily fix it is to pull over, put it in park and turn it off and on again. I had a very close call and almost got rear-ended getting on the interstate last week when it happened. In the last year its probably happened about fifty times. After looking on this site it is apparent that i'm not the only one with this problem! jeep needs to make a recall on this very soon.
Recall has been open for years regarding the ignition switch but chrysler never has the part.further, this car has numerous reports of braking issues that are sporadic and it caused me to rear-end a vehicle on nov. 2, luckily at a very low rate of speed. I let my foot off the brake to inch forward and it would not engage again when i pressed it again moments later. Mechanic couldn't replicate the issue but that is typical for chrysler it seems.
Drove from ca to az.turned jeep engine off !!! visit with son & leave trailer i had been towing. I turn ignition on put in drive never touched accelerator.jeep speed out quickly (sudden acceleration) out of driveway towards home across street - two cars in driveway.grabbed steering wheel veering jeep away from home & two parked vehicles. Went down embankment and did 360.i flipped jeep and it stopped ended up on passenger side.neighbors & son saw entire crash. Could not breathe due to seat belt crushing chest & me being upside down.son pulled seat belt from crushing me. Ambulance to er and no neuro on duty told could take me vegas 2 to 3 hours away. Finally went to neuro told post concussion syndrome.after little help, went to boulder co neuro center and told post concussion syndrome, ptsd and vestibular problems was in rehab therapy one month. Keep jeep in garage to protect the evidence but no attorney firm would take case as stated the crash "did not impact the rest of my life"told by az attorney firm. I worked fed courts in los angeles, ca over 20 years and can say emphatically there was no driver error. I kept for 3 months looking for attorney firm but in the interim i found [xxx] with consumer affairs and realized other people who dealt with same "sudden acceleration" were given results "driver error".i made a report with consumer affairs and was told to bring my story to your agency as well.aaa insurance company totaled jeep and picked it up june 30th and said " not driver error" but mechanical.please investigate and inform others to protect themselves and their families.a recall needs to happen.nothing can help me now but i can tell you i am telling everyone on social media and getting the word out as this never should have happened.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
I was driving along at 70 mph in the number one lane when the motor just quit.i had to change over three lanes to get to side so i would be safe.there large trucks in the number two and thee lanes which caused me concern for my safety.the crankshaft sensor was defective causing the incident.i feel there should have been a recall because the sprinter uses the same engine which has been recalled for the same reason.
09/29/2008 jeep taken to garage for head light failure nothing found. 03/09/2012 to 11/07/2012 all indicator light flash exterior lights flash. Been to the dealership three times for numerous days at a time they can not find anything wrong still having this problem. Really not good when it is dark out and you don't have headlights. At 15,000 and 35,000 i had to have the shift modular replaced because all the car would basically go in to neutral when being driven.i would have to pull over and turn the car off and restart it.the first time it was at the dealership for three days they could not find a problem and sent it home only to have to return 2 days later with the same problem. As i have found many people on line with these same issues makes you wonder first why these issues can't seem to be fixed, second why there has not been a recall.it is truly a miracle that no one i have heard of has been injured or killed because of these defects.when the jeep is working i love it. If i had a hope and a pray of getting a new vehicle i would trade in my paid off jeep in a heart beat so that i wouldn't have to constantly worry that it stop running or that i will be driving blind in the dark.sadly i didn't even touch on the other electrical issues i.e. Window that had to be fixed remote keyless issues it is sad that the company doesn't do anything about these things this will be my last jeep. I feel that these problems are dangerous for me, my family and anyone that is on the road with me and other jeep owner with the same issues.
I was driving down the road, only going around 15 mph, when my p r n d all lit up and i was unable to drive.i stopped and put it in park and tried again and it ran fine.this happened on two other occasions.i was getting ready to leave and put my vehicle in drive and it jerked forward.i'm very disappointed that i have to replace the electronic monitoring system at such a low mileage, the cost for this is close to $400 and that is not pricing labor andnot to mention dangerous for this to happen while you are driving.
I purchased this vehicle on december 14, 2011. About three weeks later in a parking lot, we noticed the vehicle would not accelerate even though the accelerator pedal was pushed virtually all the way down. A few days later the engine warning light came on. Then the lack of acceleration happened on the interstate. My mechanic cleared the engine warning light but it came back on a few days later.i did a lot of research and it appears this is a common problem on jeep vehicles. The problem is a failure of the electronic shift module. It if very expensive to have replaced. My local dealership charged me $924 plus tax. As many comments as i have seen on this and the fact that lack of acceleration is a safety issue, jeep should not hesitate in issuing a recall.
Driving down road and engine stalled. Loss of power steering and power brakes.caused car behind me to slam on brakes to avoid getting hit.put in neutral and tried to start.had to switch ignition offbefore engine would start.stalls at random without any engine malfunction lamps.hazard to be driving on road. Problem still unknown and vehicle is out of extended warranty by five thousand miles.
The transfer case has not worked properly and the car lurches and stutters while driving. There was a recall involving the transfer case and the computer, but there has not been one for the transfer case itself, which i believe was compromised from due to the computer issue before it was fixed.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign numbers: 13v175000 (electrical system, power train) and 14v438000 (electrical system); however, the parts to do the repairs were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.
Transfer case, suspension and ignition switch seems to be causing major issues after 105,000 miles and the "warranty" just ended just before all these issues started happening. When tried to start once the engine shuttered then turned off. Started up after that, but then it has issues wanting to accelerate and can feel the jeep struggling at times to switch gears or whatever the transfer case may assist in. Also have noticed the suspension has start to rock.
Hi i am in canada but my issue below affect dozens of vehicles i know of in the usa i see that you are investigating the 2014-2015 jeep grand cherokee not going into park. I also have been having this problem with my 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo diesel with mercedes engine as have many others who are online . I have put my car in park and had it roll away on a several occasions (more than 7). I have had my transmission rebuilt 3 times, transfer case and transmission replaced completely from another vehicle and the problem persists. It happens primarily in the winter below 30 degrees (-4c).i am not the only one with this issue and have conversations with many owners across the usa.it also happens while driving at highway speed that the transmission will go into neutral causing safety issues, engine redlining if cruise is on then the transmission going into limp mode, requiring me to cut across traffic under no power to the shoulder and turning off and on the car (to reset limp mode) to get going again. This has happened more than 50 times, sometimes coming very close to collision as the vehicle slows quickly when power fails.my mechanic says its software or electronicrelated but the dealer says all software is up to date. I have spent almost $9,000.00 to date trying to find this and no one has a clue. I know this is a defect but feel that you have the power to move this forwardthank you for your time and hope for a reply

When my 2007 jeep grand cherokee is in drive, there is a loss of power. The check-engine light comes on, and it's as if the car doesn't know whether it's in drive, neutral, reverse, etc. The dealer says i need a electronic shift module to the tune of $600+. After looking into this, i see it is a problem with many jeep grand cherokees. I am looking into getting jeep to take responsibility for the faulty part.
3.0 liter crd has had multiple problems from purchase to include air intake, oil systems, and seals.engine is unreliable and does not seem to last more than 5,000 miles before needing major repairs.based off of my experiences i believe the engine is faulty and can lead to safety issues while driving.in a 3 year period vehicle has been quoted as needing in excess of $20,000 in engine repairs.air intake clogs with oil.oil system leaks from multiple locations to include engine oil cooler, and intake runners.back engine oil seals leak.turbo clogs with engine oil.vehicle has 46,000 miles on it.
Had the transmission warranty recall update done, now i am getting a "service 4wd" light. In doing research this is very common on jeep's who had the recent warranty update. Jeep needs to correct this problem. In some cases dealers are replacing actuators under warranty and in some not. My dealer, ed tomko jeep in avon lake, ohio, would like to charge me to take a look at it. Chrysler/jeep needs to pay to correct this problem.
The problem was the same one that a lot of people have had with it losing acceleration or not wanting to accelerate. My mechanic checked for a code and found out the problem was in the shifting assembly. He had to take out the center console and replace the shifter assembly. He said that a module was faulty in the shifter assembly and was putting the car into limp mode. This seems to have taken care of the problem. I thought i would share this information so others would know about it.
Sometimes when i put my vehicle in drive and start driving my vehicle will go into neutral forcing me to pull over, put it in park and turn it off and turn it back on in order for me to drive it again. This happens about twice a month.
I was driving at 70mph on the highway when suddenly the car "jerked" and the speed drastically decreased to 20mph. I was unable to accelerate. The check engine light came on and there was a box around prnd instead of just around drive. I got off the highway as soon as i could and drove to my local mechanic. The same thing happened to me in oct 2009 shortly after i purchased the vehicle, i brought it back to the dealer and it was fixed at that time. Now alittle over one year later the same thing happened. I am lucky that i was traveling when traffic was light or it most certainly would have caused an accident. I spoke with jeep and they were not willing to offer any assistance unless i brought the car back to the dealer in which is was repaired before, i explained that the dealership is one hour away and i would not be driving my vehicle that distance and do not currently have the financial capability to have it towed that distance. They need to issue a recall on this situation.
After application of safety recall n23/ nhtsa 13v-175. Reprogram final drive controller module. 2005 - 2010. (wk) jeep grand cherokee. 2006 - 2010. (xk) jeep commander, the transfer case of our car could not be shifted out of 4-high to either neutral or 4-low. Consequently a major drive train component has been destroyed. This demonstrates the software is defective and potentially dangerous and may not correct the reason for the recall.thousands of jeep vehicles subjected to this recall have suffered the same loss of function. How does nhtsa, or we, know the safety problem is actually fixed? it is obvious the software used in this recall was not subjected to sufficient testing to validate it. I therefore fear my car is just as liable to have a safety defect now as it did before the recall. I will continue to return to the dealer for service until the issue is fixed costing them time and money as i will not be paying for any further service regarding this issue.
Upon driving on the highway, i felt my vehicle's transmission change gears, which felt like neutral. My car slowed a bit but then sped back up, and then slowed again and sped back up. I then noticed the p, r, n, d were all lit up. I had no control over my vehicle's acceleration when this occurred. After i brought my car to the dealership, i was told the electronic shift module had to be replaced. After replacing it, three months later it occurred again, and was replaced again. Over the last 1.5 years it has occurred randomly, over and over, and now needs to be replaced again. This is a safety issue as the driver has no control over the vehicle's speed. Jeep knows about this issue but refuses to acknowledge that a recall needs to be issued, therefore making their customers continue to pay for the repairs. A recall needs to issued.
This first occurred @ approx. 48k miles.driving down the road, i accelerate, truck behaved as if it was thrown into neutral.i was able to coast it down the road approx. 1/4 mile and pull off into a parking lot (living in the country, there is no place to safely pull off the road) shut the jeep off, restart and all is good.now at 55k miles, the rear pinion seal was leaking like a waterfall, replaced, all of a sudden the truck starts with this feeling as if it were thrown into neutral, both times it kicked back into drive on its own. Now today driving home, it clunked, bucked, all p,r,n,d lights light up at once, then they go out, then they light up, this repeats , i made it home, could not accelerate above 40-45. When is jeep going to recall these, after someone is killed.did i mention i have a 4 year old in the truck every day!i cant drive it at this point, i am petrified, i will not put the child in it.i have to borrow a vehicle until we are able to pull it apart and get the part from the dealer i bought the jeep from 40 miles away!would never ever recommend a jeep to anyone, ever!i have a friend owns the same jeep, same year, even the same color, he has almost 200k on his and just replaced it, he could not accelerate over 25 mph.the shame of it is, i love it and i am going to take a huge financial bath on it, even when its repaired, i cant trust it, its not child safe!also seems very convenient jeep does not transfer warranties!otherwise this would of been covered, the powetrain warranty on these was extended to lifetime, original owner only!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While making a left turn, the vehicle suddenly began to hesitate, shook, and failed to accelerate properly.

The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred approximately 1 1/2 years later. The contacted indicated that the transmission shift mechanism was replaced a second time and eventually failed again. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 13,000.

I have 2 recalls from jeep and nothing has been done for years, they are p41/nhtsa 14v-438 and p73. Every time i go into the dealership they say they can't get the parts. The forms they send out don't have a date on them so they are smart enough not to have any incriminating evidence as to how long the customer sits on these and they are waiting for an accident or the customer sells the car and the paper work gets lost. These vehicle manufacturers need to be jacked up a little bit and be given an ultimatum to get these recalls fixed before something serious is caused by there criminal intent to not to fix these recalls.
Takata recall all the dash lights come on from battery,check engine,low tire pressure, code read 0411 & well not pick up speed.
On two occasions the transfer case has shifted to neutral on it own. One time it left me in the middle of the road with traffic. Also, 4wd low rand of transfer case does not work. There was a recall done, known as the "n23 recall" first, it was done incorrectly resulting in no low range. Second, it was redone correctly and it worked as it should. Now a couple months later it is shifting to neutral on it's own and no 4low. It is a known problem among jeep owners. The dealers only want to replace parts at customer's cost and very unsuccessfully.
First my rear window light would come on during cold weather and would stay on this happened at 35,000 miles. Then my directional stopped working had fixed it had something to do with inside the steering column. This happened at 82,000 miles. Then a few weeks later drove myself to the drs when i came out my jeep wouldn't start. All the interior lights,radio,directional, windows worked but when i turn it on i hear a click then nothing else. Car wont turn over at all. I waited about an hour of trying before it decided to work and turn over. I then proceeded to drive 5 min stopped at a gas station for gas, when i shut it off and tried turning back on same thing happened. I waited about 45 min before it would start back up. Then no problems for 5 days. Now again its doing the same thing except i left it over night and it still wont start. I called chrysler after looking online and seeing a lot of people with complaints that were the same as mine except these people spent thousands trying to fix and replace everything yet still no luck they continue having this problem. So this is a very well known problem with jeep and even after bringing to jeep dealer and having a diagnostics done with no problems showing up. They don't know what's wrong suggested replacing wires, starter, something in the steering column, and some module. I don't want to dump tons of money in it like everyone else just to have the same problem. Chrysler apologized and said there is no recall for my vehicle. I stated it is a known problem and there should be. She then went on to say i should have it towed back to jeep for another diagnostic. It works when it wants to work and has left me and my 4 yr old stranded. It seems like anytime there's a problem with my jeep and everyone else's its always during cold winter months. Frustrated and stranded.
My jeep has experienced three electrical failures which have occurred approximately 6 months apart. For some unknown reason the battery died overnight each time. The second time it happened i purchase a new battery but six months later it drained too. I was able to successfully jump-start the vehicle after each incident. Transmission----i haven't been able to down-shift from drive to a lower gear. This problem began at about 46000 miles. I took it to a repair shop where they diagnosed the problem as defective shifter control. Before i had it repaired (est. $1000) it began functioning normally, that is, until today. I left a parking lot and merged into traffic. Fortunately traffic was light because i couldn't get the jeep to go any faster than 28 mph. It seemed like the transmission was stuck in first. Also the engine light came on. This is a very serious situation that should not be ignored by the chrysler corp. Or the national highway traffic safety adm..
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While the vehicle was parked with the key in the on position, the vehicle shifted from the park to the neutral position. The vehicle rolled forward and crashed into a parked vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was not filed and there were no injuries reported. The failure occurred twice. The dealer stated that there was an electrical failure in the transfer case. The vehicle was not included in the nhtsa campaign number: 13v175000 (electrical system, power train). The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 90,000.
Was pulling from a stop sign when the vehicle suddenly shifted to fourth gear without touching shift left lever causing the vehicle to accelerate very slow and was almost hit by cross traffic because i could not get out of the way, luckily they swerved around me. I have read multiple complaints of same problem with shifting out of control. It must be a manufacturer defect. If it had not been for an alert driver the situation might have turned out differently for my family and i. Jeep needs to remedy this problem before somebody is killed.
While i was driving home last night 12/16/11with my fiancee we stopped at a traffic light, and when the light turned green the jeep started back up fine all except it couldn't gofaster than 20 miles per hour. So i put my flashers on and the traffic behind me went around us, then it worked itself out, but did it again when i came to another traffic light. But this time i was able to use my manual shift to help it. No warning lights came on. And i just purchased this jeep 2 days ago. I would like to get this safety issue fixed since i have seen that this is a dangerous and common problem with the other 2007 jeep grand cherokees. I am also a firefighter and i depend on this jeep to get me to fire scenes and other emergency scenes, and i don't want to be in an emergency scene involving me due to the safety issues this jeep is having. Can someone please do a recall and have this issue fixed.
Took my 2007 jeep grand cherokee to my local dealer for the n23 recall regarding the transfer case in december 2013.a week or two later, noticed a dash board error "service four wheel drive system" and my "four wheel drive low" will not work.dealer says i need a new transfer case actuator for hundreds of dollars, but the part is on permanent back-order.the reason this part is on back-order is because the software update as part of the recall causes the system failure!as i've researched several different jeep forums (here, for example: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/recall-2005-2010-grand-cherokees-2006-2010-commanders-1521883/index17.html), this is happening with most, if not all, quadra-drive ii four wheel drive systems after completing the n23 recall.for those with the skills to undo the recall "flash", the problem goes away and their "four wheel drive low" works.help!
2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo - randomly the vehicle will not start, when turning the key to in the ignition you can hear the relay clicking, engine does not crank or start. When the key is returned to the off position the data display below the tachometer momentarily states that the transmission is overheated. The battery is fully charged and everything else, lights, horn, etc still work. There are no error codes dumped. The first attempt to fix this by the dealership was to replace the starter, now 4 months later the vehicle is doing the same exact thing. This has become a reliability issue in that there is no telling when this will occur, each time family members have been stranded with this vehicle, jeep dealership seems to be "stumped". I have read of many jeep vehicles that demonstrate this very same problem, without resolution. This can be an intermittent issue, usually have to wait until it becomes a "hard" fail before the dealership will look at it. This is extremely frustrating owning this vehicle not knowing when it will or will not start and whether the dealership can or cannot fix it!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while park, the shift lever was shifted into drive and the vehicle began to jerk violently. The contact noticed that all four gears were selected on the instrument cluster panel as the check engine warning and transmission light illuminated. The contact had to tap the shift lever before the gear engaged.the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure recurred on numerous occasions. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unavailable. Updated 03/30/15*lj updated 9/20/2017
The trans struggles to shift through every gear and wont shift past 3rd gear, sometimes even stalling me in traffic.feels like it doesn't catch the next gear when accelerating.there have been times when i've been stopped at a light at an intersection and when i go to accelerate, the engine will just rev as if it's in neutral, but it's not.therefore, the acceleration is veryweak.when switching from park to drive, it either doesn't fully click into drive or it selects all gears (prnd) in which i then have to park the car and shut it off, then retry a minute later.i don't drive the vehicle as a manual so there should be no reason for it to stall, but i'm pretty sure the issue stems from the main computer in the shifter module.at times, it seems like the vehicle is expecting me to shift it from gear to gear, then it finally clicks and moves to the next gear on its own.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While approaching a stop, the vehicle inadvertently shifted into neutral. The failure occurred intermittently and without warning. The vehicle was taken to monroeville chrysler jeep 3(651 william penn hwy, monroeville, pa 15146, (412) 856-1422) where the transfer case was repaired twice and the motor as well. The contact statedthat the failure recurred. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing the same failure as listed in nhtsa campaign number: 13v175000 (power train, electrical system). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 87,245.
Check engine light continues to come on at random. When it does, problems accelerating. Car will not accelerate past 20 or sometimes car "sputters" jerking a lot. Sometimes at red lights, rail road crossings, anything really where the car is stopped, car will not resume driving and car sounds like it is in neutral and i am reving it up. Electronic dash puts a bracket over each gear, p r n d, all at once. When engine light is on it is on for a period of days. When i turn the car on and put it in to drive it makes the most horrible sound as if i backed into a wall and jerks. Sometimes on the highway when the light is on it's as if i smell something burning through my air vents. Everytime i take it to the dealer or any shop just for a diagnosis it's just my luck that the light turns off and they tell me my car is fine. This car needs to be recalled from looking at the complaints!!!
I purchased 07 jeep 10/20/2012shortly after it stalled in car wash about a week later it stalled again. The problem soon began to stall on interstate and recovers at higher speeds. As time passes the problem is happening at least 8 times a week mostly while idling or coasting.
I own a 2007 jeep grand cherokee v6 2wd and other owners across the us (thousands of them) with years ranging 2005-2007 report problems with the electronic shift module.this goes out in the middle of driving (sometimes on the highway) and will cause the vehicle to stall out in the middle of the road without warning.i have had mine replaced twice now and have only owned my jeep for 1 1/2 years (bought it brand new).this happened in march 2009 and again january 2010.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle independently decelerated and became resistant to acceleration attempts without warning.the failure occurred intermittently. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired.the manufacturer was not notified of the failure.the approximate failure mileage was 113,000.
I write this only because i just experience my fourth mechanical breakdown in three years.in december 2009, i experienced the first breakdown in what has become a string of malfunctions.the transmission on my 2007 grand cherokee laredo gave out at about 40,000 miles.when trying to start the vehicle, i got a 'transmission overheat' message on the dash display along with the engine malfunction indicator.i took it to the dealership where i purchased it andit took nearly a month for the repair shop to locate, receive and install the necessary parts.apparently supply and demand had something to do with it, indicating to me that this was an issue nationwide.a month later, another malfunction, this time, the electronic shift module (esm) had died.just over a year later, the same component (esm) died again (of course just out of warranty), this time while i was driving along rt. 50 outside of dc.now, less than six months later, with less than 40,000 on the already replaced transmission, my transmission has blown again - same 'transmission overheat' message, same engine malfunction light, same undrivability.clearly from seeing the comments on this forum as well as other reputable sites such as edmunds and consumer reports, the 2007 grand cherokee laredo has a long, long history of mechanical and electronic problems.i have a phone call scheduled with a case worker scheduled for tomorrow, 7/13/2012.they'll either make it right or i'll be taking my story to small claims court.i encourage everyone who's had issues with this model to do the same.
The "shifter module" is clearly defective and is a serious safety hazard. My wife and kids were in the car when it first starting acting up. Luckily, they were just leaving the driveway and no other cars were coming down the street. The transmission malfunctioned. On the instrument cluster "transmission overtemp" was flashing, and all of the other warning lights illuminated on the cluster. When i brought the car to my local dealer,a parts representative told me that he has had to replace so many of these shifter modules that he's memorized the part # (not kidding). He told me that they are aware of the problem and that their shop swaps out the defective jeep shifter modules with mercedes shifter modules.unfortunately, this repair cost me well over $1000.00.bottom line - my wife drives this car around town. I don't have a tow hitch, and i pamper this car. Still, jeep refused to reimburse me for this costly repair. I have called chrysler about this, but chrysler will not acknowledge this defective part. Yet, on reputable auto forums, many other owners have complained about the same exact shifter module defect.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)
The contact owns a 2007 jeep cherokee. The contact stated that she attempted to shift to the park position but was unable to do so. The contact mentioned that the vehicle had to be shifted into the neutral position and apply the emergency brake in order to park it. The manufacturer was notified and stated they had received several complaints but a recall had not been issued at that time. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure and current mileage was 62,000.
I bought this jeep on 9/20/2013. The truck is equipped with the 5.7 l hemi engine. Over the first 50 days and 1,157 miles of ownership i have encountered 18 episodes of the vehicle stalling, with 14 of those stalls occurring on major highways in traffic. The stalls occur with no warning. The vehicle immediately decelerates to a stop and i am left with no power, no steering and no brakes. One dealership blamed it on a bad battery. The dealership which sold me the jeep diagnosed the problem as a m.a.p. Sensor, which they replaced. That did not correct the problem as the stalling problem continues to occur. The most recent was on 11/9/2013 while driving in the center lane of the pa turnpike at 65 mph. The jeep stalled and came to a stop, with a semi tractor-trailer behind me. I have no idea how that truck driver was able to swerve in time to miss me. Mechanics and on-line forums identify possible causes for the stalling as 1. A defective (ecm) electronic control modules; 2. Shorts in the wiring harness; 3. Sparks plugs; 4. Egr valve; 5. Ignition coil; 6. Pcv valve; 7. Transmission solenoid pack. There are no diagnostic codes stored in the obd-ii system. One school of thought is that 2007 jeep grand cherokee and commanders equipped with the 5.7 l hemi engine are extremely sensitive to radio frequency interference from the waste spark on the coil. As other complaints have noted, this is an obvious and persistent problem with jeeps equipped with the hemi engine, and chrysler has turned a deaf ear to the complaints. Perhaps they are waiting for the fatalities to occur. Why nhtsa hasn't done more to order a recall is beyond my comprehension. The problem has been reported on for years with no action taken by chrysler. This jeep is, for lack of a better word, a deathtrap. At best it cannot be trusted, it is unsafe and unreliable. At worst it is an accident waiting to happen!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee 4x4. While driving approximately 55 mph, the vehicle decelerated and lost power. The contact stated that the vehicle would not accelerate over 20 mph. The contactshut the vehicle off and was able torestart the vehicle within a few minutes. The failure recurred a second time. The manufacturer was contacted and a complaint was filed. The vehicle wastowed to the dealer for diagnostics but was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 33,300.
The transfer case is bad ,the car only have 30000 but the transfer case is bad and it shakes over sixty and once u brake the whole car shakes ,i took it to the dealer and they said its a transfer case bad and the 4wd is not working ,and the ignition switch keep killing the battery.
Originally having issues slowing down going around corners and up a steep incline. Felt like vehicle was staying in higher gear, you could down shift it manually.at that time there were no codes present in the system. Then last year in august 2011 we did a cross county trip (7000 miles) vehicle would stall at both low speed and high speeds, not every day.sometimes vehicle would restart itself and others the key had to be removed and reinserted, but most times not. The weather did not seem to be a factor.upon return vehicle had approx 45,000 miles, codes retreived from vehicle were multiple. Active codes: b2105, c121cpending code: p0524 stored codes p0129, p0688, p0884. At 35,000 miles new oem spark plugs and water pump (due to coolant leak) with new antifreeze. Vehicle is serviced regularly every 3,000 miles since new. Since 45,000 miles all related circuits and components have been inspected and checked for proper operation. New crank sensor and electrical ignition switch. Code b2105 keeps recurring even without stall. All wiring connections and grounds have been cleaned and checked, new battery at 36,000. Had vehicle to dealer and they said they may not be able to find problem. We have stopped driving this vehicle even though we are still paying for it because we feel that it is not safe.my husband has 40 years as certified automotive mechanic and is very frustrated with this vehicle.
Traveling on i 95 . Car engine light came on and car shifted into a gear that felt neutral. I put the hazard lights on and slowly moved over. Basically dove off exit in neutral. Engine off and restarted. Ok for a while then happened again. Garage said that part is back ordered which is alarming to me. Is this a frequent problem?
Esm- electronic shift module issue: p, r, n, d, l all light up simultaneously and the car gets confused as to which gear it should be using.the check engine light has come on. It shifts roughly. Often the car loses power driving down the street, highway and interstate, how is this not a recall??? this is the 4th time this has happen, and this time the check engine light is on. Does someone have to get killed before this is recalled???ps-your vehicle drop box does not work.## vin failed ##
While accelerating the vehicle lost power and the prndl lights all illuminated.after a few seconds power resumed.this has happened several times and the check engine light has come on.we have been told its error code u0404 and the electronic shift module needs to be replaced.it appears this is a very common occurrence for this year vehicle.it is a safety concern because if it happened during high traffic times it could certainly cause an accident.
While pulling out of a gas station into heavy traffic, i began accelerating to the speed limit of 45 mph.i was accelerating rapidly as traffic was coming quickly from behind.the jeep stopped accelerating and the instrument panel showed all of the drive letters with boxes around them.the jeep would not accelerate for over 20 seconds, causing me to rapidly pull off of the road to avoid traffic behind me.the dealer found a faulty electronic shift module and replaced it.the vehicle has worked well until 2/15/12.at 70,000 miles, the dealer installed module has failed again.once more this happened when entering a heavy traffic roadway.there have been numerous reports throughout the internet of people experiencing this same issue. In my case, both failures resulted in me having to take evasive action to avoid a collision. I find it hard to believe that this seemingly common problem has not been identified as the tremendous safety problem it .
Owned the 07 jeep for 5 months. Vehicle has been serviced for 2 different incidents. The 1st incident(actually happened several times) is when the vehicle would not shift during acceleration and it would force me to the side of the road where i would have to turn the vehicle on and off until it would run correctly. Was told by dealership service that it was a transmission sensor,had the part replaced-not covered by warranty. Less then 3 weeks later, 2nd incident occurred when i was driving 55mph down the interstate while accelerating to get over to an exit, the vehicle threw itself back into 2nd gear and i was forced to get over into the emergency lane so as not to be struck by oncoming traffic. The jeep had almost come to a complete stop in traffic! check engine light came on and went off after that. Dealership states the gear ratio and valve cover forced the vehicle into 2nd gear. Very dangerous!
While driving on a 5 lane interstate at 4:30 pm, i accelerated to move over into the far left lane and lost all acceleration while doing this.also, the check engine light came on while this happened.had to coast across five lanes of interstate into the emergency lane.stopped the car and put it in park.waited a minute and put it back in drive and the accelerator magically worked again. The check engine light remained on, drove to an auto parts store to have the code checked.the technician said it was code p0730, gear ratio incorrect.
Upon acceleration from stop vehicle will hesitate and lose power.this constitutes a hazard to vehicle and any approaching vehicles during a turn.inspection indicates that transmission electronic control module is at fault along with a possible transmission sensor failure.the check engine light will come on.both of these conditions ( power and check engine ) are intermittent, indicating that the module is faulty.there have been many complaints about the transmission ecm on these vehicles.the other complaints have varying symptoms but all go back to the transmission ecm.these unit should be recalled and repaired or replaced at manufacturers cost.this problem exists in many different models and years of vehicles, but always go back to this ecm unit.after investigating this problem i don't feel that the consumer is at fault or causing this to occur.chrysler modules are and have been faulty in the past.anecdotal evidence says that other modules in chrysler vehicles have had problems too.please investigate the chrysler transmission ecm's and have them recalled.
After receiving the recall n23, my vehicle is unable to shift into 4x4-lo. The dealership has acknowledged that this is related to the recalls update. Chrysler refuses to offer a solution to this.
The first incident happened when my jeep grand cherokee unknowingly shifted into neutral while driving down my neighborhood road.i was not aware of this until i tried to increase my speed and was not able to.i then had to turn off the car and turn it back on.this has happened three times since 2011.
Jeep would not start "transmission temp" would come up on dash. Took to dealer replaced starter. Week later same problem. Went back to jeep dealer they deemed it to be engine harness.one year later on any given day "transmission temp" will come up on dash with the jeep sputtering to start. Turn off then start. So far three time since repairs it has done this.
Jeep looses power, will not accelerate over 30 mph.this has not happen on a highway yet (luckily) only in-town driving.no error codes present in dtc report or from a diagnostic that cost $90.00 something needs to be done about this before an accident results in a fatality.there seems to me many instances like this on these boards.this is the first investment of a 'real' vehicle that i've had.to pay money for something dependable is the goal.currently this vehicle is not dependable, let alone safe.
N23 recall was done a while back which has since then turned into no 4 wheel low/ neutral. I was advised by the dealer as have many people it seems that it's the transfercase actuator motor so i replaced it myself it was good for a few weeks then came up on the dash again service 4 wheel drive system. Chrysler has since came out with a reflash it looks like and when i called in today to see what it's about they are going to charge me for it. It's stupid i have to pay to fix their mistake.
While driving on the interstate at 65 mph, the vehicle's engine stalled. I had to put the vehicle in neutral, turn the ignition off an back on to restart it. This first happened just after the 30 day warranty was over, as i bought the vehicle used in may of 2012. Since that time, the vehicle has stalled at highway speeds or when slowing down for a stop on dozens if not hundreds of occasions. The spark plugs, egr valve, ignition coil, pcv valve and map sensor have been changed to no effect. There are no meaningful diagnostic codes stored in the obd-ii system. I feel this condition is very dangerous, as i never know when the vehicle will stall, causing a loss of power steering and brakes, and the ability to accelerate out of harm's way. It is my understanding that many of these same vehicles with the same engine are having similar issues. I can no longer let my wife or teenage son drive the vehicle because of this condition.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle rolled away. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was found that the actuator needed to be replaced. The contact also mentioned that the vehicle was previously repaired under nhtsa campaign number 13v175000 (electrical system , power train). The manufacturer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 109,000. The vin was not available.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee 4x4. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle began to jerk and then the speed began to reduce to 20 mph unintendedely. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for diagnosis and they stated that the failure was contributed to a faulty electronic shift control module. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and stated that there was not a recall related to the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 54,000. The vin was unavailable.
Vehicle run perfectly. Took vehicle in for recall n23. From that time i am not able to put transfer case in neutral for towing behind motorhome which i have done 100's of time in 6 years with no problem. Numerous calls to chrysler/jeep and trips to different dealers have accomplished nothing. They are in complete denialthat they have a problem, but there a hundreds on the internet all complaining about the same thing.something needs to be done to get chrysler /jeep to fix this problem.
The vehicle will stall out when you are trying to accelerate, even with the gas pedal to the floor the rpms will shoot up but the vehicle will not move forward.if you stop and put the car in neutral it will sometimes fix itself but not always and this is not a good option to resort to in the middle of an intersection.this vehicle will also downshift on its own while you are driving at a high speed slowing your car without warning. Very dangerous if driving on the interstate with other vehicles around.was told replacing the electronic shift module (at $1100) may possibly fix the problem but the dealership was not sure that this would remedy the issue.
The transfer case on my vehicle (2007 jeep srt) went out. I took to two repair shops and dealer and every place indicated that this has been a long standing issue with these vehicles. I then filed a complaint with chrysler and the case manager indicated that my complaint would stay internal and could not advise me on where to file a complaint for a safety or mechanical defect. I then did some research and it appears it should go the nhtsa. With such a common defect and with such a large scale issue (dealership has part for sale for $4000-$6000 not including labor) i do feel this should be considered a recall.
I was driving late friday night (11/14)/early saturday morning (11/15) to waterford, wi from palmyra, wi and my vehicle shut off causing me to become startled, which then caused me to deviate from my lane and then was pulled over by a town of mukwonago police officer. I could have killed someone if oncoming traffic was involved! i then received a ticket for unsafe lane deviation and was taken to waukesha county jail under the assumption that i was drinking and driving after i attempted to show the officer the recall for my vehicle. Pending my court date, i could receive a possible owi charge. I am very upset about this because that is an $800 fine and will also cause my insurance premium to increase.
2007 jeep grand cherokee will suddenly shift into neutral while driving. It has happened at various speeds. When this happens all the shift indicators are highlighted. I have to then pull over, put it in park and then try again. I have had it to the dealership shop 5 times to get this fixed. (over the course of this past year). I have now been told that there is a recall with letters going out last month. When can we expect these? i was told june,, but now it is the middle of july. This is very dangerous and we can no longer drive on the highway and have not been able to for almost a year now.
My daughter was driving the vehicle on i-40 between raleigh and wilmington.she was going the speed limit and the car just shut off.this is the 5th time this has happenedand we have had it into 2 different jeep dealerships.i drove down and picked her up and drove the car 90 miles further on i-40 without incident.when we arrived in wilmington and exited the interstate i noticed what i believe was the transmission downshift being abrupt and jerky.
After being parked the jeep would not start, code displayed in the dash stated transmission over temp, after sitting for about 30 more minutes the jeep started - drove home and it would not start again - took it to a garage and they could not get the problem to replicate after having it for a week.july 5, 2011 - jeep would not start again,transmission over temp code, still intermittent, after 2 weeks the garage replaced the transmission control module, august 6, 2012 - transmission over temp error code, this time it will not start after any pause in driving, had it towed to the dealer and they are saying its the starter (jeep now has about 65,000 miles on it)-also had to replace the right front speed sensor (it is bad and causing the traction control system not to function properly).[additional notes: had to replace the esm at 28596 miles, jeep loss of engine power and all lights lit up on gear shifter, at 27170 miles had to replace both front window regulators].
While driving my 2007 jeep grand cherokee (11/8/14) i was at a red light and the vehicle just cut off! i heard a beeping sound and noticed all the lights on the dash board were off while the car was in "drive".i put the car in "park" & turned the key in the "off" position--waited a few minutes & started the car again. I had my mother with me & told her about the "recall" & this was it...the ignition switch (recall p41).we decided to go home & when i pulled in her driveway, the same thing happened again...the engine just cut off!i'm very afraid to drive my jeep now...this could have happened while i was on the highway!! something needs to be done now!! this is my only means of transportation!!what procedures do you have in place to assist people until you are able to get the replacement part(s)? lives are at stake!!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle shifted into neutral independently. The vehicle was stopped each time and had to be restarted before the vehicle could operate as designed. The vehicle was taken to a dealer on three occasions where various parts were replaced and software updates were performed however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 40,000 and the current mileage was 103,000.
While driving the vehicle, had a sudden lose of ability to accelerate, no throttle response, no rpms on the tach, and every gear indicator was illuminated as if in all gears at the same time (park, reverse, neutral, drive). Dealership says its part # 52124137ac that needs to be replaced, and is not covered under any power train warranty, at a cost of $817.00. This problem happened 4 times before i was able to get it in to the local dealership, never on the highway, if it had happened on the highway, im sure i would have been taking a chance with my life.
The engine stalls while at low speeds shortly after start-up.no engine diagnostic lights are present to aid in the troubleshooting.the car has stalled under the low speed conditions 5 times since purchase.the car currently has 27,000 miles.
There have been several people with the 2007 wk crd that have reported that their vehicle has died on them while driving.reading about this on jeep forum, i discovered that there is a tsb related to a faulty crankshaft position sensor on wk jeeps that were built before june 12th, 2007.my jeep was built in april, 2007. While my jeep has not stalled, it is my wife's vehicle and she is frequently transporting our two children.the tsb calls for checking and replacing the sensor if it fails, but i do not find this to be acceptable.if the vehicle were to just die while they were going down the highway it could result in serious injuries to my wife and kids.i believe that chrysler should do a recall to replace this sensor before anyone gets hurt.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 30 mph, the vehicle failed to accelerate and all of the warning lights on the dash board were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the technician advised that the shift module would need replacing. The mechanic advised that there was no guarantee that the failure would not recur.

The approximate failure mileage was 53,000.
Vehicle is 2007 jeep grand cherokee and currently has 18300 miles and was purchased new in jan. 2008.two failure to accelerate problems have occurred. One on 5/31/10 and another on 04/21/11. In both instances the vehicle would not shift into the next gear and the speed could not exceed 30 to 35 mph even with the accelerator pressed all the way to the floor.the problem occurred without any warning.after the first occurrencethe dealer replaced the bezel shift selector.after the second occurrence the dealer could not determine what the problem was.merging onto a busy freeway where traffic speeds routinely exceed 80mph and not being able to accelerate beyond 30-35 mph is a serious safety problem which could result in injury or death.the same safety concerns apply if the vehicle suddenly decelerates from 70 to 30 mph.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 70 mph, the vehicle began to decelerate with the illumination of the transmission warning indicator. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the road. The engine was turned off and restarted. The vehicle resumed normally without the warning light illuminated. The failures occurred intermittently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer on three occasions and they were unable to determine the cause of failure. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where the gear shifter module was replaced. The failure recurred two times after the repair. The failure mileage was approximately 29,000.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that she suddenly lost the ability to accelerate after the shift indicator light illuminated. The contact stopped the vehicle and restarted. She was able to accelerate for a fewseconds before she lost the ability to accelerate again and the check engine light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the electronic shift module was replaced at that time. The contact stated that in october 2010,the failure occurred again. The electronic shift module was being replaced again. The contact called the manufacturer who offered to pay for the cost of the part. The current mileage was approximately 53,200. The failure mileage was approximately 31,000.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee.the contact stated that the gear shift control module was not working properly.the gear shift would not shift into gear at any speed.the vehicle was not taken to the dealer.the failure mileage was 37,000.
The dash indicators for the gear shift will all illuminate at the same time and the vehicle will go into neutral. This has happened three or four times. The last time it occurred while traveling on the expressway, fortunately i was able to get it back in gear after taping the shift lever several times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and they said they replaced a electronic shift module. They kept the old part that was removed.
My daughter was driving her 2007 grand cherokee away at college. Several times as she was driving along the roads with traffic, the transmission seemed to go neutral and all gear indications lit circled as though it was in all gears, but was not "driving". When it finally kicked back into gear it accelerated quickly. She had to break and pull over several times this happened. We had the car towed to a dealership and they replaced an electronic module. This could be a deadly failure. Two dealerships' service departments i have asked have heard of it but say it isn't a widespread problem, a sales manager where we bought it claims never to have heard of this.
Driving at highway speed in drive, transmission downshifted into 4th gear without manual assistance. Pulled over to side of road and attempted to shift back into drive unsuccessfully. I then shifted into park and back into drive. Dashboard indicator said the transmission remained in 4th even though the shifter was in drive. Shut vehicle off and then restarted the engine. I then put the vehicle into drive and resumed my trip. Also, on a second occasion, driving with transmission in drive, starting from a stop, transmission downshifted into 1st gear. Pulled over and shut off engine and restarted. Put transmission into drive and resumed trip with no further problem.
Jeep accelerates then at about 15-20mph it wont accelerate any more and boxes will appear around the p n r d and then it will all of a sudden jerk forward and the check engine light will go on.

The manufacturer was contacted and advised they would work with the dealer in assisting with repairs. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 27,600.
My vehicle stalls without notice losing power but not actually shutting off. At other times it acts like it is hanging in 1st gear. On numerous occasions it has nearly gotten me hit by oncoming traffic or nearly rearended. I have had it checked out 3 times by the dealer and they say they are aware of the problem but no recall has been issued by chryler to fix problem. I have a 2007 jeep grand cherokee.
Esm- electronic shift module issue: p, r, n, d, l all light up simultaneously and the car gets confused as to which gear it should be using.occasionally, the check engine light comes and goes.after reversing, i put it in drive and it shifts roughly.randomly the car loses power driving down the street.i had the esm replaced and a month later is showing a u404 code.
Jeep grand cherokee 2007, 25,000 miles.suddenly decelerates and all of the boxes around the gears prnd light up at the same time.i need to pull over, turn the jeep off, then restart to regain normal running.this could be a tragic problem if the jeep were to suddenly decelerate on a highway with a full load of children.
The car all of a sudden loses power and all theprnd12 light up.some days it won't go into drive, then all of a sudden drops into drive.when driving on the highway if you slow down, you can't speed up again, like you have no acceleration.once in a while the check engine light comes on, then it will go off again, most of the time you have no notice that anything is going to happen, you just lose the ability to accelerate.i see a lot of other people filing complaints on the same issue and have looked online and found many more that are having this issue.
Vehicle has lost power while driving. You will be crusing along or pulling out into an intersection and you will loose all power. The engine will not rev, no response at all. After waiting for a perion of time, the vehicle starts going again. This happened to me four times, once in the middle of an intersection, four lanes in all directions, and the vehicle just lost all power. Very scary. I took the vehicle to my local garage, and he told me that this was the second jeep to do the same thing. The owner had to have the vehicle towed into the garage, and upon arrival, could find nothing wrong. I had to go to an authorized jeep dealer, and i asked them if they ever heard of this happening, and the reply was, just 3 or 4 times....imaging if this failure happened this often in this small area, how many other vehicles may be having the same problem. The vehicle only had 31000 miles on it, but it was out of warranty for time by 9 months. This is a very dangerous event when you are driving and suddenly loose all power and don't know if or when it is coming back. Chrysler said they do not have a problem. I don't believe them.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 mph, the shift module suddenly failed by shifting out of gear and the vehicle stalled. The contact was able to restart the vehicle and then drove to the nearest dealer. The dealer inspected the vehicle and informed the contact that he would need to replace the gear shift module. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 48,000. The vin was unavailable.
When putting transmission into drive, the vehicle will not accelerate, this problem first occurred at approx 31,000 miles. The dealership replaced the shift control module. The problem went away. Then again at 62,000 miles, when pulling into traffic, the vehicle started to accelerate, then lost power. Another vehicle had to swerve to miss me, i would have been hit in the drivers door had he not swerved. My vehicle would not move, after cycling the ignition key , the problem went away, took to dealer they told me that the same shift control module needs to be replaced (again) for 750.00. The vehicle is unsafe to drive and i am shocked that someone has not been killed by this issue as there are hundreds of reports of this on the internet. This is absolutely a manufacturing defect as it has happened on a wide number of identical vehicles with the same repair being performed only to have the problem repeat itself.
Today while driving on a highway at approximately 35-40mph my vehicle stalled. I had come to a complete stop and was awaiting a traffic light change. When the light changed and i stepped on the accelerator the vehicle began to hesitate and jerk and the esp/bas light, malfunction indicator light (check engine) and a message stating transmission over temp came on. I was in the left lane and immediately put on my flashers. The driver behind realized that i was in trouble and put on his as well. After i was able to roll to the shoulder, i immediately turned the vehicle off. After waiting approximately 5mins, i restarted the vehicle and continued to drive slowly and carefully to my office since i was just 2 blocks from work. This experience scared me because had this happened while i was driving at the 60-65 mph rate on this very busy highway, i could have been hurt. After reading several of the other complaints, i can also relate to the complaint about the tires having had to replace a broken stem after owning the vehicle only 2 days and i currently still have water leaking into my vehicle on raining days on the passenger side and now through the lights. I drive on the highway daily and after today's stall out, i am afraid to drive this vehicle. I called the dealership today and explained my issues and told the service manager about all of the lights and he told me the car was probably cold and if the lights don't go out i can bring it in on saturday. Well today is wednesday and i will not drive that car again. Since the dealership is quite a distance from my home,i will have the car towed so that it can be checked out. I am very uncomfortable with the idea of ever driving this vehicle again. I transport children as part of my job from time to time and i could never forgive myself if something was to happen to them while we are riding in this vehicle.
Jeep 2007 loses power when driving... Gear module is faulty.. Dropped from 55 mph to 0 ...electrical working fine.. Something is wrong.. Avoided a fatal accident on the highway..
2007/ 30 000 miles. Shifter malfunctions intermittently and causes loss of acceleration by going neutral or sticking in 1st gear unexpectedly. Typically, all the letters are lift prnd simultaneously and check engine light comes on. Stopping and restarting (annoying and dangerous in highway driving) seems to reset the shifter. Dealer says esm part no 52124138ad is responsible for the problem. I believe for safety reasons, there should be a recall on this part before somebody gets killed as a sitting duck in the middle of the highway.
Bought used 2007 grand cherokee from adams jeep, aberdeen md in nov. 2009. Within first month, while traveling around 30 mph, car would not accelerate when pushing on gas pedal despite engine racing. Prnd lights all lit up. Took car back to dealer and bezel gear selector replaced after paying $100 deductible on extended warranty. Same problem occurred 5 months later. Dealer charged me for electronic control module updates. One month later, same problem occurred, dealer replaced bezel gear selector again. One month later, same exact problem occurred. This is 4th time taking car in for lack of acceleration while pushing on gas pedal. Dealer states unable to fix problem since they cannot reproduce it. This is a huge safety problem as i have almost been hit multiple times when my car fails to accelerate when pushing on gas pedal.chrysler needs to recall the shifter module in these cars before someone gets killed.
The transmission in my 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo started clunking loudly when i shifted from reverse into drive.the service engine light will come on after this occurs.the problem was intermittent, then, one day i was sitting at a red light.when it turned green, i stepped on the gas pedal and the vehicle would not move.it acted as if was in park.i shifted it to park and back into drive several times and suddenly the vehicle slammed into gear lunged forward into traffic.i reported this problem to my dealership (the vehicle is under warranty) who told me no codes registered in relation to the service engine light having been on and that they could not duplicate the problem.they returned the vehicle to me and two days later the same transmission clunking began and the service engine light came on.i left a red light today and the vehicle would not shift from first gear into second.finally, it shifted, slamming into gear, with a loud, hard clunk that shot my vehicle several feet ahead.i almost lost control of the vehicle and would have had an accident if a car had been ahead of me.it's back at the dealership who claims there's nothing wrong.the car has only 21,000 miles on it.clearly, there is something wrong and i fear for my safety and cannot simply go buy another vehicle.
Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)re: 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo 4x4problem: dangerous shifter module defectto whom it may concern:last week, my wife was bringing our children to school, and upon leaving the driveway, the transmission jumped, the car jerked back dangerously into the open street, and all of the lights illuminated on the dash (p, n, r, d). Fortunately for us, she was able to return the car to the drivway, unharmed. Living on a busy street, we are very lucky that it happened without any accident/injury. As this is the second time something like this has happened, i am now afraid to let her drive this car any longer, upon contacting jeep/chrysler, i was told that they would not be able to cover this safety repair (approx. Cost is $1025.oo w/tax,parts,labor). I am downright frustrated, angry, and fearful. After reading scores of ofher similar complaints about the shifter module on reputable sites like edmunds.com, my frustration with chrysler has increased. They simply won't concede that there is a dangerous safety flaw with the shifter in the vehicle. Please, any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. [xxx]
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo. The contact stated as he started the vehicle, he noticed fluids leaking from the transmission. The dealer replaced the plugged adapter guide bushing to correct the failure. At 29,500 miles, the contact was driving 20 mph and attempting a right turn when the transmission slipped and the vehicle would not accelerate over 10 mph. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where the console shift was repaired. At 34,500 miles, the failure recurred and the vehicle would not accelerate over 30 mph. All four transmission gear selector warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was drivable yet the check engine warning light remained illuminated. The dealer advised that the software would need an update to correct the failure. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 27,000 and the current mileage was 34,600.updated 11/16/10the consumer stated the vehicle is still not shifting properly and stays in first gear too long.updated 11/16/10
When my 2007 jeep grand cherokee is in drive, there is a loss of power. The check-engine light comes on, and it's as if the car doesn't know whether it's in drive, neutral, reverse, etc. The dealer says i need a electronic shift module to the tune of $600+. After looking into this, i see it is a problem with many jeep grand cherokees. I am looking into getting jeep to take responsibility for the faulty part.
I have a 2007 jeep grand cherokee with about 38,000 miles on it.it has stalled out several times when trying to accelerate almost resulting in a few accidents.i was told the electronic shift module needs to be replaced, which has been a recurring problem for a large number of jeeps this year-make-model.the part alone costs over $700 and is on national back order for over a month.there absolutely needs to be a recall....this is a serious safety hazard and absolutely ridiculous!!
Auto transmission gear shiftnot shifting into gears correctly; loss power around curves; sometimes engine light comes on; sometimes all gear indicators come ondash;feels as though can't accelerate when entering onto highway or passing.nothing done yet.called dealer, online searches.very very many same-similar online & very expensive repair $700+.appearsto be defective part & should be recall/dealer replace/repair!!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee.while driving 65 mph, the vehicle began to lose speed.the contact stated that the vehicle was serviced for the transmission control.two days after replacing the transmission control, the shifter and transfer case failed.the manufacturer is aware of the failure and stated that they would investigate it further.the contact was advised to call nhtsa.the powertrain was unknown.the current mileage was 9,901 and failure mileage was 3,652.
Car simply stalls - in intersections, on roadway for no reason. Drive train, fluid leaks car is unsafe.
In may 2008, 15308 mi on jeep, slowing for red light, dies, all dash lights com on, no power to steer, no wipers, etc.; starts back on it's own. Took to dealer, no code, no re-act; has happened intermittent since-safety issue in traffic. Now tranny problem, started sept. 2010, 37,600 mi, code 750, changed solenoid pk in tranny, now code for low pressure send circuit, drives a few miles then goes and stays in 4th gear;3 months and still not drivable. Need recall for esm and tbs before someone gets killed. Chrysler should stand behind their products & be responsible for design and components. This is very disheartening since both my husband and i own a small biz and are struggling just to keep the doors open and now add the expense of diagnosing chrysler's problem is just too much! i warranty my work, wear & tear considered, as should chrysler before someone is hurt or worse- dies trying to get to out of traffic.
I recently leased a new 2007 jeep grand cherokee3.7 l , 6 cylinders. Thiswas the second time in less than a month that the vehicle stalled while driving at highwayspeed50 mph) and local speed 30 mph.the vehicle suddenly lost power andcould notbe driven at more than 20 mph,and the indicator gauges seem ed stuck in place. Also, the vehicleshut off when making a sharp turn into a parking space at work. The first incident occurred on a major highway in new york city ,and my fear was that another vehicle would rear end my vehicle. We had the vehicle towed to the original purchasing location at additional costs to us,and they stated that the problem was related to the shift controller, transmission not sending the proper signal forit to shift properly. They told us they would replace the solenoid, and it should be fine. This was less than a month ago, and now my wifewasunwilling to drive the vehicle for fear of being stuck in traffic or being involved in an accident. I will be taking the vehicle back to the dealer on 7/9/07. Any additional information you could provide to address thisproblemwasgreatly appreciated. I will also contact daimler/chrysler corporate headquarters in the morning.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee.while the vehicle was parked and turned off, a child crossed over the driver's seat to exit the vehicle.he held the gear shift to support himself, which caused the vehicle to shift into drive.the vehicle sped down a hill and crashed into a tree.there were no injuries and a police report was filed.the vehicle was towed to an auto body shop and the mechanic stated that the cable went into the shifting gear, which caused the vehicle to shift into gear without the key in the ignition.the body of the vehicle was repaired, but not the gear shift.the vehicle is still at the auto body shop.the contact would like someone from chrsyler to inspect the vehicle.the vin was unknown.the failure and current mileages were 43,000.
I started the vehicle and started driving when the vehicle would not go faster than 20mph and felt like stalling out. On the dashboard it show that the vehicle was in p,r,n,and d all at the same time (circles around the letters). I call a jeep dealership and they told me if the engine light didn't come on there's on code, so they can't fix it. Jeep also told me they never heard of this problem.
I purchased a 2007 jeep grand cherokee in august of 2006. 11/11/06this is the second time the automatic shift stick has malfunctioned and would not go into park.the jeep has e remote starting feature with a safety that will lock the shift lever in place until the key is inserted into the ignition.this locking mechanism is what keeps breaking.we currently have 4700 miles on this vehicle.the dealership has fixed the shifter both times at no charge, but i certainly don't plan on having to replace this every 2500 miles.they need a design change.

Kingstown, ri the day i took delivery the jeep had several problems the front windows did not work properly, the tail gate was not lighting up properly and i was getting a vibration through out the jeep when driving over 45 mph. I informed the sales man the next day of the defects in the jeep i brought the jeep in to be serviced and to have the repairs done on 11/6/07 the tail gate was fixed as best as they could but still defective the front power window's were also corrected how ever the vibration has not been resolved they replaced the drive shaft, they also removed the transmission and replaced the torque converter that still did not correct the problem. They know believe it needs a new downloag to the transmission control modular but that will not be ready for at least 2 weeks and they do not know if that will correct the problem and they are insisting i take back the jeep on 11/16/07 i feel the jeep might be a safety hazard to drive due to tarbox not know what the problem is i have called chrysler and i am in need of help i drive about 600 miles each week and do not feel safe driving the jeep in the correct condition.

Driveline vibration on my 2007 jeep grand cherokee at highway speeds.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee.while driving various speeds, the gear would shift into neutral.the vehicle was taken to the dealer and they stated that the electronic shift module failed.the part needed to make the repair was on back order.on a separate occasion, while driving less than 60 mph, the vehicle shifted into neutral again without the actual gear shifter being moved.the contact's vehicle was rear-ended by another vehicle, which caused minor damages to her vehicle.there were no injuries.the current and failure mileages were less than 20,600.
Passenger side seatbelt receptacle began to stick and not release reliably.within a week, the seatbelt buckle would not go into the receptacle, rendering the seatbelt useless.the jeep dealership quoted a price of $413 before tax to replace the defective part.
I have experience with front driver and passenger seat belt for failure to retract back to reel properly. This vehicle under lifetime service contract through chrysler. I demonstrated service manager twice and she said her mechanic tested and it was meet factory specification. The reel designed by manufacturer was very poor designed with cheap materials. The belts unable to retract during very cold weather. My wife almost tripped out while she was exit the vehicle because of failure retract the belt properly. The driver side had been replaced twice in past but first time on passenger side.i spoke with customer service at factory and they always favor for service representative over customer. I became very frustrating and concern about our safety. I have pictures of the incidents show belts were not retract and left loose to allow door strike the belt and degrade the strength in case of accident. My concern that if i may involve an accident and will belt able to stop me from impact with steering wheel or windshield. That is why i feel uncomfortable with this situation. I have to arrange for purchase replacement driver/passenger seat belts for $138.00 each plus sales tax and my precision time and driving to the dealer.so far, my experience with chrysler, general motors and ford were not great and my jeep will be last vehicle for my wife and myself. Because they showed that they care about money instead of safety.
Seat belt failed to retract when exit and also failed to secure the belt properly. Sometimes, it stuck and had to effort to release the belt properly. The seat belt was replaced under factory warranty. Now, the seat belt returned same problem as original. I have to pay 100 dollars under contract to replace it. It may last for a year before have to replace again and again. I went to used car lot and saw jeep grand cherokee and found out the seat belt was loose and unable to retract properly.
I was stopping when i was rear-ended by a vehicle going approximately 60 miles per hour.the impact of the collision pushed me into the vehicle in front of me.my seat belt (one piece) experienced a partial failure.the lap band locked up, however the shoulder piece failed to lock, causing my head to hit the steering wheel.in the emergency room, i received 5 stitches on the bridge of my nose and am experiencing significant bruising and swelling of the face.
My daughter was just driving her 2007 jeep grand cherokee and the engine cut out while driving about 70 for about 10 seconds she lost head lights brakes ect. The car then turned back on automatically before she stopped and the esp, abs, bac,traction control lights came on. This is so dangerous and seems to be s common problem.is there a recall?if not shouldn't there be?my husband already replaced the ignition switch regulatorabout two months ago because the lights were going on and off.that repair seemed to have fixed the issue.the serpentine belt is also squeakinglike crazy.it has been. Replaced twice.first with an inexpensive belt then with a certified belt.
Uncertain but the vehicle was in motion the brakes failed to stop the vehicle making contact with another vechicle at approximately 50 mph airbags failed to deploy.see also 11143883.*dsy *dt
2007 grand cherokee repeatedly lost engine power, power steering and braking. Unclear on loss of airbags. Vehicle taken to bob caldwell jeep dealership in columbus, oh. We were informed that no recall existed for that year/model. When we returned home we received notification for chrysler regarding details of recall. Immediately called dealership and they were like "oh, that recall".they had given us a $4000 quote to repair the problem prior to our bringing the actual recall notification for chrysler. Caldwell then told us that no part existed and they couldn't help us. Today i contacted chrysler and received a reference #693786. It is supposed to track the non manufactured part when it actually ships at an unknown future date.chrysler is not able to remedy this defect within a reasonable time..at this point actually they cannot fix at any time as part does not exist. This situation puts my family at great risk. Chrysler states jeep is safe to drive...let's hope so for our sake.

Drove from ca to az.turned jeep engine off !!! visit with son & leave trailer i had been towing. I turn ignition on put in drive never touched accelerator.jeep speed out quickly (sudden acceleration) out of driveway towards home across street - two cars in driveway.grabbed steering wheel veering jeep away from home & two parked vehicles. Went down embankment and did 360.i flipped jeep and it stopped ended up on passenger side.neighbors & son saw entire crash. Could not breathe due to seat belt crushing chest & me being upside down.son pulled seat belt from crushing me. Ambulance to er and no neuro on duty told could take me vegas 2 to 3 hours away. Finally went to neuro told post concussion syndrome.after little help, went to boulder co neuro center and told post concussion syndrome, ptsd and vestibular problems was in rehab therapy one month. Keep jeep in garage to protect the evidence but no attorney firm would take case as stated the crash "did not impact the rest of my life"told by az attorney firm. I worked fed courts in los angeles, ca over 20 years and can say emphatically there was no driver error. I kept for 3 months looking for attorney firm but in the interim i found [xxx] with consumer affairs and realized other people who dealt with same "sudden acceleration" were given results "driver error".i made a report with consumer affairs and was told to bring my story to your agency as well.aaa insurance company totaled jeep and picked it up june 30th and said " not driver error" but mechanical.please investigate and inform others to protect themselves and their families.a recall needs to happen.nothing can help me now but i can tell you i am telling everyone on social media and getting the word out as this never should have happened.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximate 40 mph the braking system failed while attempting to stop causing the vehicle to drive through a busy intersection and crash into a fence. No injuries were reported and days later a police report was filed(#191013164648947). The vehicle was not towed and was still operable. The cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The local dealer gateway jeep/chrysler(4103 interstate 10e, orange tx) was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 106,000.
2007jeep grand cherokee laredo engine stalled out while trying to accelerate when red light turned green. Loss of engine power, power steering and loss of braking. Received a recall (# p41) for a faulty ignition switchin september 2014 for this problem. Engine has been cutting off intermittently since august 2014 while either trying to accelerate from a dead stop or while trying to make a turn. Chrysler said to remove any objects from key ring which we have done and the problem persists. We are afraid to drive this car at all. We have been to several jeep dealership mechanics and they say that the problem does not show up on their diagnostic testing so they cannot fix anything until chrysler sends new parts for the recall.have tried to speak with chrysler personnel and am always put on hold for 2 hours at a time!!is chrysler waiting for a tragedy to occur beforedispatching the parts to fix thisrecall??
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 25 mph, the vehicle stalled as the brake pedal was depressed and failed to respond without warning. As a result, the contact crashed into another vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained a head injury and the driver of the other vehicle sustained a head injury, which both required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system) however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 38,000.
I was coming to a stop at a stoplight and everything went dead.i couldn't stop the vehicle so it had to roll to a stop.after, i could not restart it.we had to push it to the side.it was towed to dealer.the battery was checked along with the engine.they said it was the ignition switch and that there was a recall.they said they didn't have the parts then and they'd call us when in.they never did.a year goes by and this happened again 2 weeks ago.it was taken to dealer and we were told it was part of the recall, but they could not get the parts to fix it.the dealer said then to write jeep and complain.
I have received a recall notice over a year ago from fiat chrysler. I have had the vehicle turn off due to the ignition switch multiple times. Both my husband and my son were driving the car at the time. The engine stopped, the power steering did not work, it was on the highway and on a country curvy road.i do not feel i can sell this car to someone else who might potentially wreck due to this issue. I am still being told the parts are not available to fix this vehicle.
The original problem was a battery light that came on when the car was being driven during a light rain. The solution suggested by our normal mechanic (who is very good and has serviced the car for years) was to replace the alternator and then it was noted the battery was bad. It was replaced since it was three years old. After the repair the car started to die intermittently while being driven. The car was taken back to the mechanic who check the diagnostics and said it appeared to be pointing to the ignition switch (based on their diagnostic flowchart). The mechanics service technician was able to duplicate the stalling in the vehicle when he drove it. Suggested we take back to the dealer who had replaced the ignition switch tumblers during the recall for this vehicle last november. The dealer wanted a $85 diagnostic fee to just check the switch. We received a download of the diagnostic codes which appear to be related to multiple failures of ignition modules but the dealer reported his service technician had not been able to duplicate the failure.he thought it might be the tipm but was sure it was not the switch.he was unable to tell us what the failure was and said we would have to pay for more diagnostics if he was to find out what exactly it was. I took it back to my mechanic who replaced alternator.however, as i was driving the car last saturday it died after we stopped at a railroad crossing waiting on a train and then tried to cross the tracks after the arms had gone up.the crossing t-bones into another road and a very deep bar ditch at the side of that road. The crossing was a steep incline.almost put car in ditch.my wife would not have been able to control and stop it as i barely was able to.after reviewing other similar complaints i now believe it is the tipm.this is safety related since all safety equipment is tied to this.
Received a safety recall notice some time last year 2014. Called and no one was of much assistance. Said the parts were not available.they asked for my email and i never received any correspondence back. Took the jeep to the dealer as the safety recall letter stated and they said they could not help me out. No accidents yet but i am very concerned for my safety. My tps light stays on constantly. I get my tires checked frequently to fix the issue and everytime i go, i am told my tires are fine. As i was driving, all abs and traction lights go off, making it very difficult to brake safely. I was told my serpentine belt had to be replaced. I had this issue fixed last year, and it was not inexpensive. It has been less than a year and already the problem shows up again. I feel very unsafe driving and i feel this is a recall issue that needs to be addressed. I would appreciate it if someone would contact me regarding this problem and help me out so that i can feel safe while driving.
I own a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. I received a recall on a part in july of 2014. It is now april 2015. There is still no part to replace this ignition switch problem. I have children that i need to drive to and from school. This vehicle is not safe. My husband has seen now at least 3 vehicles (same make, model and year) in car accidents. These car were completely totaled. There is no fixing them. One vehicle a car blew up because the ignition switch. This is ridiculous. Almost a year now, and there is still not part to fix this problem. And i can't sell my vehicle to anybody because then i could be sued because of the ignition switch recall. Your jeep dealerships will not buy them back for what they are worth because of the ignition switch recall. I get below value offers. I will not buy jeep again. But the fact that jeep is taking so long to fix this issue is ridiculous. When people start dying because of it, then you will be sued for those deaths because that ignition switch recall was not fixed in a decent amount of time. I figured 6 months max. Its now almost a year and again still no replacement part. I'm disgusted at the fact that nothing is being done about this. No one seems to care or realize the potential danger this ignition switch causes. I wouldn't wish this upon anyone but it may happen to you just so you open up your eyes and realize what is really going on.
When turning left or right at slow speed the engine rpm drop from about 600 rpm to 300 or 400 rpm and then stalls. This happened 11 time in 2010 and then final disappeared. It now happen in 4 times since 24 march 2014. Twice it happened in northern nj as i tried to enter the garden state parkway, once in a shiopping mall and two weeks ago as i was turn off the main road into my street. Recently i have written the dealer where i purchased the vehicle explaining the problem but i have never received evenan acknowledgement. I was told by chrysler customer service that i would have to have an expensive analysis done. When this was done in 2010 they could not find anything. I was told they had to see it happen. Ihad it happen 1000 ft from their facility, but they refused see the vehicle unless it was towed. I feel that this is a very dangerous situation especially when it occurs turning onto a high speed highway.

The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mph, the brake pedal was tapped causing the vehicle to lock up and sieze. In addition, the power steering assist failed. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who was unable to diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 96,121.updated 1/13/15 updated 10/5/2015
The first incident occurred in a brief manner. The vehicle would not start, system stated that the vehicle was not in gear. I turned the key to off. Then tried again and the vehicle started. I left in the vehicle without incident several other times that day. The next day i attempted to start the vehicle, it would not start. One of the attempts the brake would not depress. After several other attempts (of on to off) the vehicle started. Ran normal. Once turned off it would not restart. The brakes are normal again. All electrical cables are attached, no corrosion. Vehicle has full power to other components. Yet the starter is not engaging. The system is not showing any errors. We called chrysler (not a dealer), according to our vin they determined that the vehicle is not included in any of the ignition recalls.
Vehicle displays esp (electronic stability program), bas (brake assist system), abs (antilock braking system) lights in cluster, as well as service 4wd system.while these lights are active, vehicle becomes unsafe and brakes while cornering under acceleration (without touching the brakes!) and has resulted in loss of control.issue has been repeatedly reported to dealerships and manufacturer (10 visits for this issue spread across 2 dealerships, and 4 cases have been opened with jeep directly).issue continues to be diagnosed as a failed brake light switch, and switch is replaced.new switch works for 3-6 weeks before failing again, rendering vehicle unsafe.one example of this issue resulting in the vehicle loosing traction occured in november 2015 while going on a circular highway entrance ramp with the warning lights illuminated.half way thru the turn, while gently accelerating, the rear brakes completely locked up causing the vehicle to skid onto the muddy shoulder.in january of 2016 a similar incident occured while going up a snowy hill (road curves while going uphill) resulting in the vehicle loosing traction and going into a snowbank.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving 45 mph, the brakes failed to respond and the contact crashed into the rear of another vehicle. None of the air bags deployed. The driver sustained minor headaches and whiplash, and the child passenger seated in the rear sustained whiplash. Both occupants received medical attention. A police report was filed. A dealer was not contacted. The cause of the failure was not diagnosed. The insurance company was notified and the vehicle was towed to a facility. The contact stated that the independent source that sold her the vehicle made no mention of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system), which was related to the crash. The manufacturer was notified. The vehicle was not included in nhtsa action number: pe14017 (electrical system). The failure mileage was not available. *dt *dtconsumer stated the airbag did not deploy at 45mph when her daughter hit another car. *dt
Abs esb indicator light on. While driving through busy intersection, !!brake!! red indicator came on and stopped my vehicle from moving. Was able to pull to the side of the intersection to not be hit and restart the jeep. Once restarted no lights on at all. Traction control keeps setting off on its own for no reason causing the abs/esb lights to appear. Turn traction control off and problem still exist. Becoming unsafe and no way to figure out what is wrong.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while reversing at approximately 5 mph, there was an abnormal noise coming from the wheels and brakes. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 50.
I was driving on county road about 45 mph battery light came on then abs light then message service anti lock brake system, engine and brake light they stayed on till i got home there was also a very low humming noise when i turned off car it would not start again. In morning it started i turned it off and it will not start again. Battery and engine light on. 11/19/15 recalls for ignition switch,andreprogram final drive controller module were performed.
Started with traction control light flashing, then it slowed vehicle felt like brakes were on, gave it more gas and got no speed increase, pressed on the brake and then it seemed to surge and speed up on its own. This was unexpected acceleration &could have lost control. After this! it went back to normal driving. Next day took a 110 mile trip traveling 70 mph on highway no issues until i arrived at destination pulled into driveway and putin park and several warning lights came on abs, esp, bas, &traction control light flashing & service 4 wheel drive...i had no problems until i stopped...when i started up to return home all the above lights stayed onbacked up out of driveway , when i put it in drive and gave it gas it started to make a bad grinding sound like metal on metal a clunking sound and did no't respond to fuel peddle.i increased speed then i felt it release like park brake being released...it drove normal back home dash lights still on,... 110 mile trip doing 70 most of the way...at home i used the built in vehicle scanner and got code u1417 which indicates front left wheel sensor... I replaced both sides same grinding sound, replaced the 2 back sensor... Now i have no lights on dash and no grinding clunking sounds no sounds at all. But when i drive i get the traction control light flashinggiving it gas i can no't accelerate above 25 mph ,seems to release at lower speeds below 25mph but it feels like the brakes are on and something it decreasing engine power... This is a dangerous problem! when i pulled unto traffic and i could no't get up to speed i almost got into a broadside accident... I thought i had fixed the problem tested it in my driveway no dash lights on ,and no grinding or clunking sound so what is it now?... Is it some traction control problem seems to be a fathom problem a lot of jeep owners are having!!
Recall has been open for years regarding the ignition switch but chrysler never has the part.further, this car has numerous reports of braking issues that are sporadic and it caused me to rear-end a vehicle on nov. 2, luckily at a very low rate of speed. I let my foot off the brake to inch forward and it would not engage again when i pressed it again moments later. Mechanic couldn't replicate the issue but that is typical for chrysler it seems.
Vehicle will shut down without warning. This happens when vehicle is idling or at speed -any speed. The engine will shut down, steering locks up and brakes shut off. Secondary systems like radio and fans will continue to operate but there is otherwise no power.this problem has been occurring on and off for two years. Dealer and mechanic both could not find solution to the problem; however, an electromagnetic field from distributor/spark plugs theorized as the culprit. Adding shielding to the pcm computer cables and grounding it seems to have mitigated the issue, however it is still sporadic and has caused near miss accidents with pedestrians, motorists and stationary objects while making turns.

Went to use emergency brake and the lever was free with no connection indicated.took it to the dealer and the dealer said it needed a complete rear $900+ brake job and would not be covered by the extended warranty.took it to a 3rd-party mechanic; cost $299.00 to fix because they had to dismantle the console and remove rear seats and remove rug to get at the cable.the cable was not broken, it was simply disconnected from the lever inside the console; there was nothing wrong with the rear brake assembly -- it did not need a brake job.mechanic's observation was the only way the cable could have been disconnected is if it was disconnected at the brake site, allowed to become slack and when reconnected at the brake site the cable was pulled under the rug.the dealer had previously conducted work in the rear end the previous december and claimed they could not have done this.note:this was the 1st time i had attempted to use the emergency brake since i bought the vehicle in 2007.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee.the contact researched his vehicle and learned that there were two brake recalls related to his vin.he was upset because he was not notified of the recalls by the manufacturer before purchasing the vehicle.there had been no failure to date.the recall numbers were unknown.the current mileage was 1,100.
Funny noise making right turn like wheel rubbing. Thumping noise at low speeds from brakes.
I purchased a 2007 used jeep grand cherokee from kelly jeep on 3/11/2010, with an odometer reading of 24,758 miles.this vehicle has stalled randomly seven (7) times since the date of purchase. It has been returned to the dealer's service department three times and each time they have not been able to duplicate the cause of the stalling. The stalling occurs after a stop and then attempts to proceed into a turn at low speed. It occurs more frequently when a right turn is being made. The engine stops and all electric energy are lost, just as though the ignition was turned off. Braking assist and power steering are lost. I have provided the dealer a document listing and observation of each of the seven events. Several have places me in a comprising position and if traffic had been heavy could have resulted in a serious accident.the vehicle always is able to restart after it stopped, the ignition turned off and placed in park.
Driving at night, doing 50 mph when vehicle engine cut off - could not pull off road, apply brakes or steer.towed in. "repaired by dealership" only to occur again in 6 days when engine would not start at all.again, sent for repair, five days in shop. Occurred again the very next day - would not start. Has been at dealership another week and they still have no solution to problem. Husband is totally disabled and we must have a dependable vehicle. We bought it used with only 37,000 miles on it so we thought it would be almost new. Cannot take a chance of the engine cutting off while on a busy highway!

Vehicle was traveling approx 25 mph. Approaching intersection low pressure was applied to brakes with the intent to gradually increase pressure in order to come to a smooth stop. Almost immediately after applying light pressure to the brake pedal the brakes failed. The brake pedal was pushed completely to the floor but had no effect resulting in a complete failure and the vehicle entered a busy intersection. A delayed reaction application of the emergency brake gradually slowed the vehicle to a stop.authorized service center (at place of purchase) stated the master cylinder failed and needed to be replaced.

The engine died going 70mph on the hwy with out any notice. I was barely able to get to the side of road as steering locked up, once on side of road, i put it into 'park' and 'restarted the engine'. It worked just fine from then on, till about 3 months later, it happened again. This time i was approaching a stop light and turning right, i barely was able to get thru the light and to the side of the road, as the steering had again locked up. This is very scary! everything in the car turns 'off', i dont even think the flashers worked during these times. Once at a complete stop, and after putting into 'park', everything starts back up normally, and drives fine. There is not any other signs of anything wrong, no dash light warnings or anything.
This is the third time i receive a letter on the mail from jeep named as "important safety recall information" stating that my car has been recalled due to a defect relating to motor vehicle safety, more specifically: unintended change in ignition switch position that implies a safety risk. I went on the safecar.gov site to confirm the status of my recall and it says that there is a recall in effect on my car model but unfortunately jeep doesn't have the part replacement yet. I want this problem fixed asap.
The car was a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. Once again as i was driving my vehicle shut down (jerked real hard) and i lost all driving capability etc power steering, speed control. . . . . I was driving on the freeway when my jeep shut down it was during morning rush hour traffic. It was hard for me to glide over to the shoulder when everyone around you is going 60 mph and you have no power steering. When i was able to get to the shoulder i placed the jeep in park and turned the vehicle off and removed the key and put the key back in and it started right up. This has been happening everyday now and why searching the internet i've ran across on here and elsewhere that i am not the only one having problems like this with my year and make. It is really dangerous and im surprised there hasn't been a recall yet or a terrible possible fatal accident due to the vehicle being non responsive in fast heavy traffic. This engine shut off without warning.i'm getting tired of going to different shops and no one knows what is wrong.apparently jeep has made a bad truck since this is a wide spread problem around the world for this year and model.

No accident has occured yet, but i have a big concern for my family's safety.recall on this vehicle has been postponed, ignored and postponed for more than a year...urgent repairs, corrections needed to be made for safty.while driving on hwy the car has completly turned off, driving it has just stopped fo not reason and brake lights malfunction as well as while backing up the car turns off. My husband and i are seniors with this as out only transportation for our drs, grocery and care needs.we also have our grandchildren we drop off and pick up from school (10+13 yrs) unsafe for all but only options we have.please assist us to get our vehicle repaired already, this is urgently needed.daily we are stuggling to get to around and need a reliable, safe means of transportation.i have been calling ancira chrysler jeep since 2014 and crysler group for some time now also but no solution nor repairs have been scheduled.i have spoken to alyssa, paula and ancira chysler jeep dodge as well (service dept) but no assistance to a solution given.
I had been driving for maybe 8 minutes at 55 mph when suddenly the vehicle jumped, stalled and lost power.after gliding to the side of the road, i made 3 attempts to restart in park.it would not restart.after waiting several minutes the car did restart. All of this while people are passing at 60 mph on a two lane road!! the vehicle is not registering any codes!!
The heat of the summer months tend to make the car engine sputter as you head down the road.this happpened again yesterday only this time as we prepared to make our turn the vehicle totally shut off, allowing me to loose control of the steering we were fortunate no one was behind us or pulling out where we were turning .we would have either been rear ended or would have run into any car waiting to turn.
2007 jeep grand cherokee experiencing intermittent violent wobbling instability when driven at speeds 30-mph & greater. Vehicle is never used off road. Jeep has been in shop 56-days cumulative since aug 09, jeep keeps saying parts are backordered. I picked up car two times after repairs & had to bring vehicle back to jeep within a day both times because problem recurs. Dealer has charged for 3 separate repairs and problem is still not corrected. I paid for first repair a front end bushing out of pocket $220.00 to fix this wobble, which didn't resolve issue.my car insurance company then paid jeep for a new drive shaft replacement $1,348.00 to fix the wobble, which didn't resolve issue.my car insurance company then paid jeep $2,165.00 for a new transmission torque converter to fix the wobble and told jeep they had to guarantee the repair or would need reimbursement.jeep replaced torque converter and insurance paid them for repair.i had the car less than 24-hours and wobble occurred again at approximately 35 to 40-mph.car is now back at jeep service as of 10/05/13.i had bought this car new from chrysler jeep. It has always only been used for home private use.all replacement parts are jeep parts.even the tires when replaced are the same exact make and model that had came with the vehicle when it was first bought.jeep last said before i picked up car after they replaced torque converter that they drove car 100 miles and didn't experience the wobble again.after i picked up car wobble occurred in less than 24-hours / under 30-miles of driving.when i brought it back jeep was upset and said they didn't feel it before i picked it up and that they would have to reimburse my insurance if this wasn't fixed.now what?the car is now back at jeep since yesterday oct 06.yesterday was the first time they gave me a loaner car that i am using.
Since the first event the vehicle has stalled at the most importuned time. Two years ago it stalled twice while entering the new jersey garden state parkway on the same day. A year ago it stalled at 40 miles per hour traveling north on university blvd 100 ft from the dealer kelly jeep dealership were the vehicle was purchased.i was made aware in july 2014 that there was an ignition key problem. By a local auto body repair shop owner. I remove everything from key except a small lightweight identification plastic taga month ago it stalled again which turning onto high speed four lange expressway. I have contact a different dealer three months go and was told chrysler is working on the problem. This is a very dangerous situation. I can't believe that in almost a year chrysler still appears to have not inkling of owh to solve the problem prior to the public announcement in sept 2014 i had it to the dealer and was required to have vehicle tested by the analyzer. No problem was found. Even though i am 90 years old i still have sufficient strength to get the vehicle to a stop and if possible to the side of the highway in order to restart it. But i am afraid that if this happens with my wife while driving she will not be have sufficient strength to steerof brake the vehicle when it losses complete power.how is this any different than the accidently operation of the ignition key event that has occurred with general motor products.last we i received a recall notice from chrysler regarding the need to re-program the final drive control module (fdcm), that may cause the service $wd light to be activated making it impossible to change gears. I do not see that listed as a recall and i have never received any other notice. His apparently has a higher priority at chrysler than the ignition key issue. Regards,

As i was driving my jeep shut offand i was unable to steer and started to slow down in the middle of the freeway going 65 mph.i was unable to get out of the road and on to the shoulder causing several cars to almost hitting me.when the jeep stopped i put the suv in park and tried starting all it did was make noise.i then stepped on the brake and put in neutral and tried starting it and it wouldn't start.i waited a few minutes put the jeep back in park and tried again and it started but i'm scared to drive in now.this happened to me 4 times now but the other times it is when i am either coming off the freeway or on a city street not going that fast and in that much traffic.
The contact owned a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving at an unknown speed. The vehicle stalled without warning and the steering seized causing the contact to crash into another vehicle.

Once again as i was driving my vehicle shut down (jerked real hard) and i lost all driving capability etc power steering, speed control.....i was driving on the freeway when my jeep shut down it was during morning rush hour traffic.it was hard for me to glide over to the shoulder when everyone around you is going 60 mph and you have no power steering.when i was able to get to the shoulder i placed the jeep in park and turned the vehicle off and removed the key and put the key back in and it started right up.this has been happening everyday now and why searching the internet i've ran across on here and elsewhere that i am not the only one having problems like this with my year and make.it is really dangerous and im surprised there hasn't been a recall yet or a terrible possible fatal accident due to the vehicle being non responsive in fast heavy traffic.
My husband and i were traveling to charleston, sc on i-26 to have a nice valentine's weekend.everything was fine until we merged onto i-26 in columbia, sc, when we felt a small jolt in the truck like it was hesitating or something.so we dismissed it as maybe bad gas or something.it happened a couple more times and as we were passing a rest area outside of orangeburg, sc in the left lane going with the flow of traffic at about 80 mph, the whole truck just shut down.no power steering and the car will not crank in neutral.traffic is pretty heavy on a holiday weekend, and i have tractor trailer beside me and behind me on a two lane interstate.trying not to panic, i put on the hazard lights and waving out the window like crazy trying to get these truck driver's attention, thank god they noticed and the one beside me sped up and my husband was able to get over by the exit of the rest area.after thanking god for our lives, we decided to try and make it to a dealership in orangeburg.we get there, and after 2 hours they say it was the throttle body and a tune up$300 bucks and another 2 hours we finally got on our way.we made it to charleston and salvaged a pretty good day trip considering what we went through, with no problems.it jolted once on the way back about 40 miles from home.so the next day i remembered we had gotten a letter from chrysler, and when we looked at it we realized that the recall was the real problem.this letter came in september of 2013, and we have not heard anything from them since then, almost 2 years later.also, you would think that a jeep dealer would know about recalls on all of the vehicles they sell when they put the vin in the system.now we just use the one key, stay close to the right lane and hope for the best.another car/payments is not an option.
While i am driving my jeep will buck and shut down.i then had to make my way over to the side of the road on the highway while cars are going 65mph or greater and my speed is slowing down.when i was able to pull over and stop.i had to remove the key and place the car in park before it would start.the first few times i tried while in neutral and moving to the side of the highway it would just continue to click and keep clicking.this has been happening several times a day now and my route to work is 95% highway.it is scary that someone might hit me and cause a terrible accident.i noticed this has happened to several jeeps around the world with the same issue.i noticed a recall for the jeep going into neutral but nothing about this major issue about the car bucking and stalling while driving.i noticed my jeep had its ignition switch changed out some time ago also.i wonder if he had problems before he traded.i have no other car to drive or i would and i have spent over $500 trying to find out what the issue is.please start investigating before someone gets hurt.

Proceeded to get back into traffic and it jerked again this time it stopped running and startedclicking all by itself until i stopped the truck and turned it off and started it again.this is not the first time this has happened and it very dangerous and from the looks of things this is a ongoing problem with this model & year jeep.

Driving at night, doing 50 mph when vehicle engine cut off - could not pull off road, apply brakes or steer.towed in. "repaired by dealership" only to occur again in 6 days when engine would not start at all.again, sent for repair, five days in shop. Occurred again the very next day - would not start. Has been at dealership another week and they still have no solution to problem. Husband is totally disabled and we must have a dependable vehicle. We bought it used with only 37,000 miles on it so we thought it would be almost new. Cannot take a chance of the engine cutting off while on a busy highway!

2007jeep grand cherokee laredo engine stalled out while trying to accelerate when red light turned green. Loss of engine power, power steering and loss of braking. Received a recall (# p41) for a faulty ignition switchin september 2014 for this problem. Engine has been cutting off intermittently since august 2014 while either trying to accelerate from a dead stop or while trying to make a turn. Chrysler said to remove any objects from key ring which we have done and the problem persists. We are afraid to drive this car at all. We have been to several jeep dealership mechanics and they say that the problem does not show up on their diagnostic testing so they cannot fix anything until chrysler sends new parts for the recall.have tried to speak with chrysler personnel and am always put on hold for 2 hours at a time!!is chrysler waiting for a tragedy to occur beforedispatching the parts to fix thisrecall??
The vehicle has a safety issued at this point it is unsafe to drive. The clockspring is bad due to manufacturers errors. When the vehicle is driven, the vehicle is losing power due to engine mechanical problems. The clockspring has a code stated as c2205 on the computer module. The steering wheel shakes going over 60mphat this point i do not know why.
Shortly after changing the spark plugs in my wife's 2007 grand cherokee overland the vehicle would stall on deceleration. I thought it might be an isolated incident, but the stalling continued frequently. The engine completely shuts down and the vehicle must be stopped or put in neutral while coasting to be restarted. After conducting some internet research i found this to be a common problem with the 2007 grand cherokees with hemi's. I was amazed at the number of occurrences of this happening among this vehicle. There are jeep forums (http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/2007-jeep-grand-cherokee-overland-stalling-problem-1147825/) that discuss this issue in depth. The vehicle stalls less frequently than it did when i first changed the spark plugs, but it still happens. The most recent occurrence was onnovember 1, 2013 when my wife was picking my son up from school. Chrysler corporation fails to take a stance on the problem denying that the problem exist. I have spoke to my local dealer's service department about the problem and they denied any knowledge of it. I would sale the vehicle, but in good conscience i could not do that to another individual. Several dealerships have replaced the upper and lower wiring harnesses on several vehicles and this seems to have resolved the problem. Again to restate the problem it seems to occur after the spark plugs are changed in the vehicles. This would lead one to believe that disturbing the position of the wiring harness effects the vehicle. Chrysler no longer manufacturers that wiring harness, as they are on the third version of it. This in itself would lead you to believe that chrysler has some knowledge of a problem, but will not issue a recall or take any official position. My main concern is for my wife and children's safety while riding in this vehicle. I ask that you please take an in-depth look into this situation.
I was driving my 2007 grand cherokee overland 5.7l hemi and the truck just cuts off with no warning and then all the warning lights came on and car stopped in the middle of the road during morning rush hour traffic.car restarted after a few tries and the key was removed from the ignition.as i see this is an on going issue with the 5.7l hemi jeep grand cherokee overland's and there has been no resolution to this problem.it can cause a major accident and a huge lawsuit against jeep.this should be seriously looked into an a recall should be done for all the other jeep owners that have this same problem all over the untied states.
As i was driving the truck jerked real hard which almost knocked the wind out of me and i lost control of steering, speed, i was unable to start the truck. I had to make my way to the shoulder in morning traffic on the highway to put the car in park and turn the ignition off and start it over again i had to do this 2 times before it started. Proceeded to get back into traffic and it jerked again this time it stopped running and started clicking all by itself until i stopped the truck and turned it off and started it again. This is not the first time this has happened and it very dangerous and from the looks of things this is a ongoing problem with this model & year jeep.
As i was driving on the interstate my jeep (2007 overland 5.7l hemi) shut off at the speed of 65mph with no power steering it was hard for me to try to get over as my jeep was going slower and slower other cars are approaching and honking and scaring me.i thought i was going to be hit. I was able to pull the jeep off tot he side to put the car in park and try to start it again.it took a few times and it started but acted sluggish all the way home and believe me i stayed on the shoulder side and went real slow.they should recall this because this isn't the first time this has happened to me or other jeep owners from what i have read.## vin failed ##
Normal driving conditions on road and jeep totally dies, no power at all, this has happened twice.two other instances the jeep loses power and slows down on the highway and in heavy traffic.i have contacted my jeep dealer more than once, with no satisfaction.
While driving the vehicle the engine will randomly shut off (stall), this occurs at any speed and any driving condition, occasionally it will be very difficult to restart, taking multiple tries. This is extremely dangerous especially when turning corners or coming off the freeway and merging into traffic.was almost rear ended when truck stalled and would not start i even put in neutral with no help and it just kept jumping.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mph, the brake pedal was tapped causing the vehicle to lock up and sieze. In addition, the power steering assist failed. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who was unable to diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 96,121.updated 1/13/15 updated 10/5/2015
Vehicle will shut down without warning. This happens when vehicle is idling or at speed -any speed. The engine will shut down, steering locks up and brakes shut off. Secondary systems like radio and fans will continue to operate but there is otherwise no power.this problem has been occurring on and off for two years. Dealer and mechanic both could not find solution to the problem; however, an electromagnetic field from distributor/spark plugs theorized as the culprit. Adding shielding to the pcm computer cables and grounding it seems to have mitigated the issue, however it is still sporadic and has caused near miss accidents with pedestrians, motorists and stationary objects while making turns.

Unintended change in ignition switch position while driving.
Car has lost power while driving -went into neutral. Have tried jeeps 800 number for info on recall--line is always busy.received recall notice in summer 2014
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving 5 mph in a parking lot, the vehicle became very difficult to steer without warning and the vehicle stalled. The contact restarted the vehicle and it resumed normal function. The vehicle was taken to a dealer. The contact was made aware of recall nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical). However, the part needed was unavailable to perform the repair. The vehicle had not been repaired. The vin was unavailable. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000.
A week ago before incident, power steering pump fluid level showed normal. About 63 miles later, the vehicle got steering wheel become stiff and near impossible to turn either direction. Then engine overheated very quickly and then engine stalled without warning. There was no "engine check" warning on instrument. A/c stopped working just before overheated. Found antifreeze solution leaked out into street surface.next day, the vehicle had to tow and delivered to jeep dealer sane date as incident. They informed me about problem was failed power steering pump assembly because of fluid leaked. That same pump also drive twin cooling fans instead of electric motor. I learned chrysler knew about this incident and then redesigned later model quietly. I also found many incident from online forum as so many owners have same kind of experience. There was no recall from chrysler because it related to near lock-up steering wheel. If i drive over 65 mph on i-95 would lead lost control with steering wheel. No computer system detect this situation because there was no sensor to watch for fluid level in the steering pump. No warning at all until incident.paid 100 dollars for lifetime service contract through chrysler.this situation, chrysler should recall to prevent lost steering control and avoid engine overheating and possible engine damage. They avoid to use electric cooling fans to save money. Use hydraulic from power steering pump was not smart way included lack of sensor(s) for computer for early warning.this kind of incident, must recall to correct the situation as i asked them if new power steering pump had been updated. No answer this question and learned the pump made by toyota and there are many owners as mentioned above that face unexpectedly failures. This incident consider as dangerous and harmful to owner/passenger(s) safety.
I own a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. I received a recall on a part in july of 2014. It is now april 2015. There is still no part to replace this ignition switch problem. I have children that i need to drive to and from school. This vehicle is not safe. My husband has seen now at least 3 vehicles (same make, model and year) in car accidents. These car were completely totaled. There is no fixing them. One vehicle a car blew up because the ignition switch. This is ridiculous. Almost a year now, and there is still not part to fix this problem. And i can't sell my vehicle to anybody because then i could be sued because of the ignition switch recall. Your jeep dealerships will not buy them back for what they are worth because of the ignition switch recall. I get below value offers. I will not buy jeep again. But the fact that jeep is taking so long to fix this issue is ridiculous. When people start dying because of it, then you will be sued for those deaths because that ignition switch recall was not fixed in a decent amount of time. I figured 6 months max. Its now almost a year and again still no replacement part. I'm disgusted at the fact that nothing is being done about this. No one seems to care or realize the potential danger this ignition switch causes. I wouldn't wish this upon anyone but it may happen to you just so you open up your eyes and realize what is really going on.
I have received a recall notice over a year ago from fiat chrysler. I have had the vehicle turn off due to the ignition switch multiple times. Both my husband and my son were driving the car at the time. The engine stopped, the power steering did not work, it was on the highway and on a country curvy road.i do not feel i can sell this car to someone else who might potentially wreck due to this issue. I am still being told the parts are not available to fix this vehicle.
The vehicle shuts down without any warning while driving. Extremely dangerous!! it's the second time it happened in the last 6 years, and it seems to happen when it is cold outside. (in freezing temperature). Luckily, no one was around when the problems occurred, but if it had happened in a crowded area, an accident is imminent. Exactly the same symptom as what was reported under nhtsa id number: 10555411 (this is a complaint filed on 12/10/2013). In one other instance when my wife was driving the vehicle at about 45 mph, it felt like the vehicle shifted in the first gear suddenly. When she looked at the speedometer area, all of the "prndl" signs were selected. (of course she did not touch the shifter in any way...) she subsequently restarted the vehicle and the problem went away. I'm surprised no recall is issued for this. Finally, i brought the vehicle to the dealer, but they had no clue how to fix the problem. Of course!
Complaint submitted in regard to fca us llc recall p41 nhtsa 14v-438first complaint filed 12/12/2014 odi number: 10663969on 8/19/2015, i was at the mukwonago post office to send a package. I came back out to my vehicle, started it and attempted to back out of my parking space when the steering wheel locked up and the engine shut off. Another car was on its way down the parking isle i was parked in and almost hit me because the driver was anticipating that my vehicle would have kept moving. I got out of my vehicle and apologized to the young lady who had almost hit me and explained to her the situation. She said, "you should really get that fixed. You could cause an accident." i was upset, to say the least, but needed to get back to work. I started my vehicle two more times, in addition to the first attempt, and attempted to put it in gear - no success. Finally, i was able to keep the engine running and proceed to my route.

Using the grab bar on the driver's side, plastic cosmetic housing moved and was no longer stable. Upon removal of the plastic housing, we found the plastic support around the screw had split in half, allowing the unit to move when used.grab bar is heavily used to assist getting into the vehicle.ordered new grab bar, a dodge ram pickup owner was in jeep parts dept, ordering one for his truck.how many more have been replaced, needs to be stronger to support the weight of a disabled person getting into the car/truck.

The plastic interior door panel supporting the interior door handle on all four doors has cracked and broken.one of the rear door handles does not function at all from the interior of the car due to the broken interior door panel posing a safety risk to the passenger potentially trapping them inside the car.all four interior panels are breaking in the same manner which is clearly a manufacturing defect, not user error.
While driving car develops wobble. Accelerating or putting car in neutral has no effect. I replaced front rotors, calipers and brake hoses to no avail.
Received a recall notice for rear suspension lower control arms on june 28, 2012. Letter states "could cause a loss of vehicle control and cause a crash." dealer is still unable to get my part due to backorder from chrysler and restrictions on how many they are allowed to order. I was told the part may not be available for another 2-3 months. This is unacceptable and irresponsible. I may crash due to chrysler's inability to provide a part that they tell me to replace. They need to step up and have the parts available for the dealers.
2007 jeep grand cherokee experiencing intermittent violent wobbling instability when driven at speeds 30-mph & greater. Vehicle is never used off road. Jeep has been in shop 56-days cumulative since aug 09, jeep keeps saying parts are backordered. I picked up car two times after repairs & had to bring vehicle back to jeep within a day both times because problem recurs. Dealer has charged for 3 separate repairs and problem is still not corrected. I paid for first repair a front end bushing out of pocket $220.00 to fix this wobble, which didn't resolve issue.my car insurance company then paid jeep for a new drive shaft replacement $1,348.00 to fix the wobble, which didn't resolve issue.my car insurance company then paid jeep $2,165.00 for a new transmission torque converter to fix the wobble and told jeep they had to guarantee the repair or would need reimbursement.jeep replaced torque converter and insurance paid them for repair.i had the car less than 24-hours and wobble occurred again at approximately 35 to 40-mph.car is now back at jeep service as of 10/05/13.i had bought this car new from chrysler jeep. It has always only been used for home private use.all replacement parts are jeep parts.even the tires when replaced are the same exact make and model that had came with the vehicle when it was first bought.jeep last said before i picked up car after they replaced torque converter that they drove car 100 miles and didn't experience the wobble again.after i picked up car wobble occurred in less than 24-hours / under 30-miles of driving.when i brought it back jeep was upset and said they didn't feel it before i picked it up and that they would have to reimburse my insurance if this wasn't fixed.now what?the car is now back at jeep since yesterday oct 06.yesterday was the first time they gave me a loaner car that i am using.
Problem: excessive vibration of front end first noticed when increasing up to speed entering 55 mph highway. I brought the jeep to the chrysler jeep dealer where i bought it and they told me there was a front end issue and they needed to order parts for the repair. I was told i had to prepay for the parts , which i did. The parts ordered and replaced were; steering rack and both tie rods. These were replacedon 8/20/13. A few days later the same problem happened, excessive vibration while getting up to speed entering the highway. I immediately drove to the dealer, they test drove the vehicle and could not find the problem they asked me to keep an eye on it and the issue happened again. There were at the least two times i was asked to leave my jeep with them so they could drive it for a few days. They claim the issue never arose. 2 years later and i am still having the same issue occasionally. It does not happen every day but when it does happen what alleviates it is if i stop on the shoulder of the highway and start again. The dealer does have the records of my numerous visits for the same issue and it has never been resolved.
Transfer case, suspension and ignition switch seems to be causing major issues after 105,000 miles and the "warranty" just ended just before all these issues started happening. When tried to start once the engine shuttered then turned off. Started up after that, but then it has issues wanting to accelerate and can feel the jeep struggling at times to switch gears or whatever the transfer case may assist in. Also have noticed the suspension has start to rock.

The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 15 mph over a speed hump, the front driver's side wheel detached from the vehicle. The contact had the vehicle towed to a certified mechanic who diagnosed that the upper and lower ball joints failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer and dealer were made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 165,000. *pm
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle would suddenly experience a violent front end wobble and vibration. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to duplicate the problem. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but no solution was offered. The failure mileage was 50.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee.when the contact turns the steering wheel all the way to the right, the inside of the tire would rub against the stabilizer bar.he could hear a growling noise, which alerted him to the failure.the dealer could not find any failures; however, they advised him not to turn the steering wheel all the way.the contact believed that this could not be avoided.the manufacturer informed him to get his vehicle inspected again.he took the vehicle to another dealer and they stated that the front carriage was off center.the dealer adjusted the centering and realigned the front end.after a few days, he turned the wheel again and heard the growling noise.the current mileage was approximately 22,900 and failure mileage was approximately 20,000. Updated 12/11/08.*ljthe manufacturer told the dealer to replace the stabilizer bar. Updated 12/11/08.
There was a red lightning bulb that came out on my dash
Tire pressure drops after 1 day of driving approx. 12 miles a day.i had replaced one about 20000 miles ago. Now both the front tire and spare have the same problem,the issue is the tire pressure monitor sensor valve.
The automotive oil change association (aoca) represents the fast lube industry, with more than3,500 locations in north america, servicing more tires than any other organization.over the past several monthsmembersreported an increasing number of problems with tire pressure monitoring systems (tpms) ' and they are getting worse.conventional tpms's measure tire pressure at the valve and use a radio frequency to transmit the data to an antenna on the side of the vehicle. The quality of these valve stems is so poor that car care professionals know -if they check the tire pressure, it is likely the valve will break and they will incur the cost to replace, about $110.00 per unit.specifically, the 2008 jeep grand cherokee, and the 2008 chevrolet equinox, have aluminum valves stems; these easily corrode, become brittle, and break at the touch.they also have a plastic cap.if this plastic cap is improperly seated, or replaced by an aftermarket cap containing brass, orbrass thread inserts, it leads quickly to galvanic corrosion; the result- the cap fuses to the valve stem.attempt to remove the cap, the stem breaks.the driving public is being 'trained' to trust these monitors for accurate tire pressure.properly inflated tiresreduce the potential for life-threatening blowouts, enhance handling, improve fuel efficiency, and prolong tire life; lowering the cost of ownership.these systems are too fragile to continue using them in passenger vehicles without addressing the durability.as these systems age, failure will increase 100%.tpms units are spec'd out byoem's- manufactured by siemens vdo (acq'd by continental ag in may '07).aoca has made many inquiries to see if these units are intended to be recalled or redesigned'the resounding answer is 'no'. If oem's do not change the spec's tpms's will continue to be poorly made.aoca asks nhtsa recall these units to protect the consumer, and people maintaining the tires on vehicles.
The vehicle is equipped with air pressure sensing tire valves that are made of a substandard metal that corrodes and brakes. The first time i had an issue the tip of the valve broke and the tire could not be inflated. The second time, today, the valve broke in half and the tire deflated in about ten seconds. Fortunately, the vehicle was not moving.i replaced the part at the dealer the first time and they stated it was a known issue with the part and that a new part had been made that would not corrode.the fact that it has happened on two of the four sensors shows this is not an uncommon problem. Clearly such a blow out at highway speeds would have put my life and the lives of those near me in jeopardy.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 10 mph the tire pressure light illuminated. The contact stated that after adding air to the tires, therear passenger side tire continued to lose air and the tire pressure light continued to illuminate. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that the valve stem was corroded,broken and needed to be replaced. The dealer was contacted and stated that the failure was common and informed the contact that there was no recall. The dealer also stated that the repairs would not be covered under warranty. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 28,000.
I cannot remember the exact dates 1- vehicle would not start intermittently - throttle control modular replaced2- vehicle would not start starter replaced3- all dash warning lights keep going on and off vehicle lost power - engine light stayed on wiring and wiring harness replaced.4- all warning lights kept going on and off lost power - engine light finally stayed on dealer just reset the computer.5-all warning light went on lost power again then abs esp traction control lights on - broken wire fixed in the wiring that was replaced.6-all warning lights just went on again vehicle has 58k miles lost power now abs esp and traction control lights are on.
The factory installed tow hitchhas too much play (clearance or slip fit).when you install a standard size receiver(male) you can move it up and down .500 of an inch or more. It is way too sloppy of a fit. This will lead to lock pin wear and in an extreme case,pin shear. This is an accident waiting to happen.please inspect this fit.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee 4x4.the contact stated that the towing hitch extender moves up and down.he stated that the hitch should be secured.the vin was unknown.the current and failure mileages were 4,000.
Driving at various speeds, most often approaching a stop the vehicle will shut off leaving no power systems.this has occurred at higher speeds and has almost caused an accident in one case.vehicle starts up immediately after occurrence.called the dealership who is aware of this occurring with this model and year but states it probably will be unable to diagnose if the vehicle is not towed from point of occurrence.dealer stated they could try to replicate the problem by driving it around???i told him you might be driving for quite some time.i don't want my wife operate the car.as a retired state trooper i am experienced in operating vehicles under hazardous conditions but don't like the idea of having to drive this vehicle until and issue occurs.it is just a mater of time until there is a serious accident. Numerous people have reported this both by nhtsa complaint and different forums.
Vehicle was stationary
Been having starting issues for at least 6 months. It starts sometimes and other times have to wait a few hours to a few days. The last 2 days won't start at all and has drained my less then a year old battery. 3 weeks ago windows will roll down or up whenever they want. Doors lock and unlock at random. I believed my car is possessed. Reading more and more i realized my tipm is bad. I have learned with all the random things with this jeep that i will never buy one again. It is a very dangerous car and too many issues, with no resolution other then i have to empty every pocket to fix it. It stalls when driving it shifts into all gears slows me down when i'm on highway at a very unsafe speed. It is unreliable and i put my life my kids and others at risk while driving. Sadly, i believe jeep doesn't care about safety since there is 1000's of complaints with same issues. It also says my air bags won't work because the tipm is bad.
It usually takes a good 10 to 15 minutes to start sometimes then when i do get it started i have the same issues that i have read about on this website and many other websites. The car will not go over 20 miles per hour and you have to pull off the road, turn off the vehicle, wait and turn it back on. It is almost like the jeep has to be reset. I have talked with several people and had the codes ran. It keeps coming up that it is the solenoid and starter. I have read on many blogs about the same issue that the solenoid wires are not protected from rain water in this vehicle and it causes them to corrode or go bad all together. This is an issue that needs to be recalled. If they know that the wires are not protected from rain water then there needs to be some type of protection that they can put over them or install a different kind of wire. This is costing people hundreds of dollars to repair something that should have never been an issue. Also this is a safety hazard because when we pull out on the road we expect our vehicle to excel properly and go over 20 miles per hour.
No accident has occured yet, but i have a big concern for my family's safety.recall on this vehicle has been postponed, ignored and postponed for more than a year...urgent repairs, corrections needed to be made for safty.while driving on hwy the car has completly turned off, driving it has just stopped fo not reason and brake lights malfunction as well as while backing up the car turns off. My husband and i are seniors with this as out only transportation for our drs, grocery and care needs.we also have our grandchildren we drop off and pick up from school (10+13 yrs) unsafe for all but only options we have.please assist us to get our vehicle repaired already, this is urgently needed.daily we are stuggling to get to around and need a reliable, safe means of transportation.i have been calling ancira chrysler jeep since 2014 and crysler group for some time now also but no solution nor repairs have been scheduled.i have spoken to alyssa, paula and ancira chysler jeep dodge as well (service dept) but no assistance to a solution given.
I have taken my car to the mechanic several times now, and every single time they tell me there is nothing showing but an emissions code. I'm told it is the gas cap to replace it.my jeep grand cherokee 2007 laredo about 149,000 miles on it. Normally, it runs like a champ. I get oil changes like clockwork, and every time it's suggested to fix something, i do it. It stalls very frequently at stop signs / stop lights, and i need to leave lots of room between me and other cars so i can steadily inch forward while waiting at the red light, otherwise it will die. It starts up fine, but stopping again and it will die again. It's to the point now that i'm scared to drive my own vehicle.stalls / dies, especially when the a/c is onmechanic says they've run diagnostics on the car and the only thing it shows is the emissions code. I'm told yet again to replace the gas cap. This has happened since i have owned the vehicle. It idles rough and has done all of this since i purchased it in december of 2016.
Sunroof explosion
I was driving on route 50 going 65mph. This vehicle is a quad 4x4 automatic / stick shift manual, which was in my favor. When i realized the vehicle was shutting down i had to think quickly what my next steps would be. I started to get over to the right side of the road and brake, because the vehicle was shutting down the power brakes where going out and i could not brake completely. The vehicle was still moving and i was about 200 yards away from my exit and the side of the road was winding around toward the off ramp and getting smaller for me to drive on. I realized that i was not able stop the vehicle by using the floor brake then the fear factor set in. In my mind the only thing i can do is pull the stick shift handbrake and quickly put the vehicle in park then i was able to get control and safely stop the vehicle.this ordeal happened at 4:20pm yesterday and by the time we towed the vehicle back to the dealership and tried to explain to the general sales manager, si faige, on site at darcars in new carrollton, md what all transpired on the road in the unsafe vehicle that they sold us, he didn't want to hear any of it.
The issue is with the tipm (totally integrated power module).during the first instance the car was being driven in a parking lot the car suddenly became completely unresponsive and locked up while in motion. It was towed to a local jeep dealership and eventually it was discovered the problem was due to a bad pcm and the tipm. After waiting a month for the tipm to come in, the vehicle was supposedly fixed. Picked up the car on a friday and again, while driving the car on saturday morning the car locked up and became completely unresponsive. This time i was getting onto the freeway. Thankfully my children were not in the car on either one of these occasions. After researching i found that jeep tipm's were recalled from 2011 to 2015. It also appears that tipm's from 2007 leading up to 2011 were also having a lot of issues and a recall was in order then, but never officially came to be. This part has a long and documented history as having major problems and i want to officially request an investigation as to why these parts have are being put into cars in this condition. The ramifications of this parts failure are huge. To have a car that is in motion lock up and become totally unresponsive presents a huge safety concern to the driver, their passengers and the other vehicles on the road around them. The local jeep dealership as well as chrysler customer service are not treating this issue with the severity it deserves. They simply want me to just pay for faulty parts and have me go away. This is not how an automaker should be handling a safety issue of this magnitude.
Vehicle has had the ignition recall done.in the hot weather,you can't run the air conditioning as the car will indiscriminately stall when you come to either a stop light or a yield.car has to be put in park and restarted. Last week, when merging onto a highway, rpms went all the way down.had to floor the car to get going and it knocked very hard.had jeep dealer look at this several times and they keep saying there's nothing wrong with the car. There is a problem here that jeep is not addressing.they don't want to give a fair buy back price on the car, knowing we have a 19 year old driving the vehicle.our local mechanic has said this is a very unsafe car and he wouldn't put his family in it.jeep dealers don't want to face the problem or address it.this has been an issue for over a year, but becomes more apparent in summer months of hot weather.
'takata recall'my vehicle had an issue starting becuase of a short faulty wire connecting to the starter that ive seen on youtube that 750000+ people have the same issue it left me stuck plenty if times as is starts when it wants to. I really cant word it as best as the next person but this is the issue and im oretty sure im not the first person to file a complaint about this here wit jeep
Auto transmission gear shiftnot shifting into gears correctly; loss power around curves; sometimes engine light comes on; sometimes all gear indicators come ondash;feels as though can't accelerate when entering onto highway or passing.nothing done yet.called dealer, online searches.very very many same-similar online & very expensive repair $700+.appearsto be defective part & should be recall/dealer replace/repair!!
Water leaks from what seems to be the moon roof into the car from the top of the interior windshield
Door handles breaking on all interior doors. Extremely dangerous for passengers in the car. Especially in the back when your child can not get out!!! it started on the passenger rear door and has continued to break on the others.
Engine shut down while driving at 65 mph.no prior problems - driving to a vacation destination on us 95, had been driving for @ 3 hours - took my foot off of the gas pedal and engine shut off, leaving me without any control over the vehicle- luckily, was able to steer to shoulder - was able to restart car within 5 minutes, however the engine shut down twice more during this trip under the same set of circumstances-just taking my foot off of the accelerator; again left without ability to control auto.reached my destination point and brought car to nearest dealer - received a call the following day that the car was repaired and that the integrated auto computer program failed and the computer program needed to be updated and re-installed.dealer noted that he had received notice of this issue occurring to other '07 jeep grand cherokees, but chrysler was not issuing a recall.it was mere luck that i avoided any accidents.
There is a ticking sound coming from either the engine or the front passenger side.it only makes the noise when going extremely slow.
I purchased a new 2007 jeep grand cherokee 9/27/07 from tarbox jeep in n. Kingstown, ri the day i took delivery the jeep had several problems the front windows did not work properly, the tail gate was not lighting up properly and i was getting a vibration through out the jeep when driving over 45 mph. I informed the sales man the next day of the defects in the jeep i brought the jeep in to be serviced and to have the repairs done on 11/6/07 the tail gate was fixed as best as they could but still defective the front power window's were also corrected how ever the vibration has not been resolved they replaced the drive shaft, they also removed the transmission and replaced the torque converter that still did not correct the problem. They know believe it needs a new downloag to the transmission control modular but that will not be ready for at least 2 weeks and they do not know if that will correct the problem and they are insisting i take back the jeep on 11/16/07 i feel the jeep might be a safety hazard to drive due to tarbox not know what the problem is i have called chrysler and i am in need of help i drive about 600 miles each week and do not feel safe driving the jeep in the correct condition. I have had a rental car for 10 days going on 11 days. I could use some help on this matter.
Recall has been open for years regarding the ignition switch but chrysler never has the part.further, this car has numerous reports of braking issues that are sporadic and it caused me to rear-end a vehicle on nov. 2, luckily at a very low rate of speed. I let my foot off the brake to inch forward and it would not engage again when i pressed it again moments later. Mechanic couldn't replicate the issue but that is typical for chrysler it seems.
I purchased 07 jeep 10/20/2012shortly after it stalled in car wash about a week later it stalled again. The problem soon began to stall on interstate and recovers at higher speeds. As time passes the problem is happening at least 8 times a week mostly while idling or coasting.
The vehicle on numerous occasions dies out while moving causing the car to stop abruptly and also dies at stops. The issue is intermittent and despite numerous repair attempts replacing the followingthrottle body gasketcam sensorcrank sensortrans fluid and filter egr valve the condition remains, it should also be noted that numerous other jeep grand cherokees (body designation wk) have had this issue and no repairs have been successful
Takata recall my car leaks water inside , when it rain, whn i go to lock or unlock my car with the remote started it starts the car
Turned on the defrost for the back windows and mirrors, mirror got so hot, it discolored. Parked in the driveway.
Rear lift gate cylinders for the back door do not work in cold - 50 degrees or cooler weather.they do not keep the door up and many times the back door almost or did come crashing down on my head.this is not a one time incident.this is a safety hazard which could result in a possible concussion, fractured skull or broken neck.luckily the last time someone saw it almost crash on my head while unloading groceries they picked up the gate before it hit my head.prior incidents results in the door hitting my head.
My jeep had been functioning fine until recently when i went to start it the lights would go on but the engine would not catch. I have brought it to a jeep dealership and their diagnosis was that i need a new ignition switch which is on recall. It has been over 1 year since i was notified of the recall and there is no part available. My 2007 jeep grand cherokee is now unreliable as i never know when it may or may not start. This is unacceptable. I should receive compensation for the loss of a vehicle and will more than likely have to trade it in. I'm wondering if it even has any value?
When vehicle goes over a small or large bump, a dashboard light cluster indicates to service 4wd system and is accompanied by abs, traction control, and esp bas warning lights. Abs is noticeably disabled when this light cluster appears. The indications usually last a few minutes before going away. This has been occurring for approximately the last 18,000 miles. When brought up at the dealership during routine maintenance, i am told they can find nothing wrong with the vehicle. On this last occasion, i lost full braking authority and was luckily able to gradually slow down and pull over to the freeway shoulder while applying the emergency brake. When the vehicle was shut off and turned back on the indications went away and braking was restored. Obviously, this creates a very dangerous situation.
When attempting to startthe (parked) car, when the key is turned everything turns on (radio, dashboard lights, seats ect) like it normally would start but the engine doesn't turn over or crank at all... When all the other lights go off the engine and oil light remain on. No clicking sound whatsoever, but i believe you can hear the fuel pump kick in. When the key is turned to the off position after it won't start, the accessories will occasionally stay on (such as the the seat when it has the easy entry option selected will stay in the driving position).nothing seems to make it start. Jumping the battery does nothing. Putting it in neutral to start doesn't do anything. It's usually just a matter of time before it decides to start again... Sometimes hours, sometimes days. When taken to the dealership they can never diagnose the issue because they are unable to duplicate the issue. For whatever reason, possibly just a coincidence, replacing the battery in the key fob seems to delay the issue from happening again for a few months.although this may not seem like a straight forward safety issue, the problem has left me stranded at a gas station in the middle of winter while being 8-1/2 months pregnant and most recently left me stranded with my 8 month old baby. I should also note that this problem never occurred until some time after the last recall was resolved.
The engine died going 70mph on the hwy with out any notice. I was barely able to get to the side of road as steering locked up, once on side of road, i put it into 'park' and 'restarted the engine'. It worked just fine from then on, till about 3 months later, it happened again. This time i was approaching a stop light and turning right, i barely was able to get thru the light and to the side of the road, as the steering had again locked up. This is very scary! everything in the car turns 'off', i dont even think the flashers worked during these times. Once at a complete stop, and after putting into 'park', everything starts back up normally, and drives fine. There is not any other signs of anything wrong, no dash light warnings or anything.
Whilst driving my jeep grand cherokee (equipped with the mercedes benz common rail diesel (crd) 3.0 l engine) on i-410 at highway speed, the engine suddenly stopped, without any warning.this also made the power brakes and power steering inoperative.today, the dealer tells me that this is caused by a faulty crankshaft position indicator sensor and is a fairly common occurrence.i should think this is a design flaw and should be corrected by the mfg.
Problem: excessive vibration of front end first noticed when increasing up to speed entering 55 mph highway. I brought the jeep to the chrysler jeep dealer where i bought it and they told me there was a front end issue and they needed to order parts for the repair. I was told i had to prepay for the parts , which i did. The parts ordered and replaced were; steering rack and both tie rods. These were replacedon 8/20/13. A few days later the same problem happened, excessive vibration while getting up to speed entering the highway. I immediately drove to the dealer, they test drove the vehicle and could not find the problem they asked me to keep an eye on it and the issue happened again. There were at the least two times i was asked to leave my jeep with them so they could drive it for a few days. They claim the issue never arose. 2 years later and i am still having the same issue occasionally. It does not happen every day but when it does happen what alleviates it is if i stop on the shoulder of the highway and start again. The dealer does have the records of my numerous visits for the same issue and it has never been resolved.
I own a 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo, 6 cyl 4x4.the vehicle has been losing power at highway speeds on an almost daily basis, usually while negotiating left hand curves.when the vehicle loses power, the traction control light turns on and the vehicle decelerates rapidly.during the power loss, i can put the accelerator to the floor and the vehicle will not accelerate.i have almost been involved in several rear end crashes due to this issue, as it happens without warning.the vehicle has been to the dealership 5 times for related issues.on 03/18/08 the abs wiring harness was re-routed because it was rubbing on the left front tire.the shifter module has also been replaced twice, however, the aforementioned problem is ongoing. The last time the vehicle was at the dealership was 09/25/09 and i was told that there was no computer code for the problem and that the dealership could not fix or diagnose the problem because they could not recreate it.i am afraid that if i continue to drive this vehicle it is inevitable that i will be involved in a collision as a result of this mechanical failure.i cannot afford to replace the vehicle and the dealership where i purchased the vehicle has been useless in fixing the problem.i am at my wits end and i am getting nowhere with papa's dodge.
I had a recall on my vehicles ignition switch and my car stop while i was driving nearly causing an accident. I was told that it was fixed when i took it to us auto where i purchased it. It was taken to jeep (2016) but my ignition switch is still the issue. I had a mechanic take a look and my ignition switch is still the problem. How could this happen what if i was injured because of this?
Car wouldn't start transmission overtemp error. Drive to work 20 min parked car flat surface came out to leave after 8 hour shift that error message and won't start. 2nd time this has happened no warning was told common issue pigtail to starter because of placement it gets wet or moisture. Which makes this car questionable to drive.
My intial issue with my 2007 jeep grand cherokee was the vehicle would lose power when shifting into the next gear either when going up a gear or when you were slowing down.it would make a loud cracking sound when this happened. I already had a sensor replaced to try and correct that issue but it didn't work.then in addition, to that the jeep started stalling out on me.i periodically have the traction control light, esp bas light and engine light on.i have called chrysler about my concerns with having to drive an unsafe vehicle which i believe is related to their p41 recall with no satisfication.i have codes b2185 and u0401 in the computer of my jeep which came from my local mechanic.chrysler is no help.the ironic thing is i have 2 - 2007 jeep grand cherokees.the second one isn't much better.that one periodically has issues also with losing power.when is chrysler going to be forced to take responsibilty for this recall?they are forcing people to drive unsafe vehicles and put themselves and their families lives at risk.
Curious as to why jeep hasn't recalled and fixed the electronic shift module.it is a very dangerous problem that needs attention.thank you.tt
I bought my 2007 jeep grand cherokee overland in june of 2011 with 52095 miles on it. In march of 2012, i experienced the first of many stalls happen to the jeep with 60,980 miles on it. It has random, unpredictable stall outs that happened through out the year. It seems to stall when accelerating however not all the time. It's stalled while driving on the highway (mass pike or rt. 9) and on side roads. I have not observed any precursors to the stalling. When it stalls, it bucks and then the jeep does not accelerate however the lights come on, just like what happens when a manual vehicle is stalled. These types of stall outs i experience do not happen all the time. What happens sometimes is the jeep will buck, like it's going to stall, but it doesn't after slamming on the accelerator. After a stall out, i am able to restart the jeep after a minute or two. The engine light has never come on, just the oil light. This jeep has had the ignition connector and software replaced twice in over a period of two years. It's been replaced because of a stored code: fcmcgw b2185 . There are two other codes stored in the computer: pcm p0884 and abs c12k. I have taken the jeep to dan's jeep in westborough, ma since the first stall out to the present. The recent stall out was friday, january 11th. This stall out was a little different because "programming assess" (something like that) appeared on the dash with a blinking red light. Everytime i bring the jeep to dan's, they give me the same response to the problem...they don't' know why this is happening and i can start replacing parts to see if it corrects the problem. I do not have the finances to just keep replaces parts to see if it'll correct this serious and unsafe problem with the jeep and chrysler has not reported how to fix this or made the step forward to fix it.
I purchased this vehicle on december 14, 2011. About three weeks later in a parking lot, we noticed the vehicle would not accelerate even though the accelerator pedal was pushed virtually all the way down. A few days later the engine warning light came on. Then the lack of acceleration happened on the interstate. My mechanic cleared the engine warning light but it came back on a few days later.i did a lot of research and it appears this is a common problem on jeep vehicles. The problem is a failure of the electronic shift module. It if very expensive to have replaced. My local dealership charged me $924 plus tax. As many comments as i have seen on this and the fact that lack of acceleration is a safety issue, jeep should not hesitate in issuing a recall.
I was driving my 2007 grand cherokee overland 5.7l hemi and the truck just cuts off with no warning and then all the warning lights came on and car stopped in the middle of the road during morning rush hour traffic.car restarted after a few tries and the key was removed from the ignition.as i see this is an on going issue with the 5.7l hemi jeep grand cherokee overland's and there has been no resolution to this problem.it can cause a major accident and a huge lawsuit against jeep.this should be seriously looked into an a recall should be done for all the other jeep owners that have this same problem all over the untied states.
My wife was driving and just about to get onto the interstate and with no warning, she couldn't accelerate past 25-30mph. Luckily she was able to pull to the side of the road quickly without an issue and turned the car off, waited a minute and started the jeep up again and was then able to accelerate. When talking to the dealer, they have never heard of this problem before. When jeep was checked at a local dealer, they pulled error codes that pointed to the transmission speed sensor. Only about $700 to replace that with labor!! the sensors are all part of the circuit board and thus need to dismantle the transmission to replace the sensors. Then i get on this site and see all the complaints with the same issue. This weekend i'm going car searching to get rid of this thing.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 45 mph, the vehicle suddenly began to decelerate independently while the contact was depressing the accelerator pedal. The vehicle then accelerated suddenly and rapidly. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The technician was unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The vin was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 64,000.
The dashboard went blank, no speed information, etc, all the warning lights lite up as if the vehicle was being started. Steering became hard, was a very scary moment!
While driving, the prndl had lit boxes around all the letters, and dash indicators all lit up, and jeep lost power as if stalling. It then "went" back into drive on its own. This happened over eleven times, with mileage starting at 1,186, and most recently at 52,536. Dates of repair incidents are :2/12/07, 12/31/07, 1/10/08, 9/22/08, 1/5/09, 6/9/09, 6/18/12, 10/19/12, 12/26/12, 3/8/13, 3/22/13.my jeep is a 2007, averaging 8,756 miles per year. I bought it new and i take very good care of all maintenance right away - oil changes, filters, tire rotation, etc.! each time it was brought to the dealer for "repair" , they either couldn't find the problem, or replaced : shifter module (twice), transmission wiring harness (three times) and suggested a new battery (we replaced that also), and transmission plug and seal.there were also numerous "software and anti-theft updates.in addition to these, i replaced the driver's side window regulator twice.now, theywant to replace the "transmission temp circ." and esm module - for another $1,500.00 .all this in 52,536milesand 6 years !!!i firmly believe there are serious manufacturer defects with this vehicle. My biggest concern is the safety of this jeep is unpredictable. I never know, even after all the "repairs and replacements" ,if it will suddenly lose power and i might be in danger (traffic, intersection, etc.). How in the world could chrysler deny this problem? it needs to be resolved at the source, they are responsible for the safety of their vehicles !!!! there are many reports of this same issue from numerous 2007 jeep owners - where is the recall ???!!!!
My daughter was driving her 2007 jeep grand cherokee when it suddenly accelerated and then slammed on the brakes twice.the rpms were 6000 or 7000.
Upon acceleration from stop vehicle will hesitate and lose power.this constitutes a hazard to vehicle and any approaching vehicles during a turn.inspection indicates that transmission electronic control module is at fault along with a possible transmission sensor failure.the check engine light will come on.both of these conditions ( power and check engine ) are intermittent, indicating that the module is faulty.there have been many complaints about the transmission ecm on these vehicles.the other complaints have varying symptoms but all go back to the transmission ecm.these unit should be recalled and repaired or replaced at manufacturers cost.this problem exists in many different models and years of vehicles, but always go back to this ecm unit.after investigating this problem i don't feel that the consumer is at fault or causing this to occur.chrysler modules are and have been faulty in the past.anecdotal evidence says that other modules in chrysler vehicles have had problems too.please investigate the chrysler transmission ecm's and have them recalled.
Shortly after changing the spark plugs in my wife's 2007 grand cherokee overland the vehicle would stall on deceleration. I thought it might be an isolated incident, but the stalling continued frequently. The engine completely shuts down and the vehicle must be stopped or put in neutral while coasting to be restarted. After conducting some internet research i found this to be a common problem with the 2007 grand cherokees with hemi's. I was amazed at the number of occurrences of this happening among this vehicle. There are jeep forums (http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f67/2007-jeep-grand-cherokee-overland-stalling-problem-1147825/) that discuss this issue in depth. The vehicle stalls less frequently than it did when i first changed the spark plugs, but it still happens. The most recent occurrence was onnovember 1, 2013 when my wife was picking my son up from school. Chrysler corporation fails to take a stance on the problem denying that the problem exist. I have spoke to my local dealer's service department about the problem and they denied any knowledge of it. I would sale the vehicle, but in good conscience i could not do that to another individual. Several dealerships have replaced the upper and lower wiring harnesses on several vehicles and this seems to have resolved the problem. Again to restate the problem it seems to occur after the spark plugs are changed in the vehicles. This would lead one to believe that disturbing the position of the wiring harness effects the vehicle. Chrysler no longer manufacturers that wiring harness, as they are on the third version of it. This in itself would lead you to believe that chrysler has some knowledge of a problem, but will not issue a recall or take any official position. My main concern is for my wife and children's safety while riding in this vehicle. I ask that you please take an in-depth look into this situation.
Summary:the vehicle experienced significantly reduced power while driving in freeway traffic. It was necessary to move to the far right lane and exit the traffic flow. This has happened on several occasions.it is unsafe when the condition occurs in heavy traffic.
The vehicle will stall out when you are trying to accelerate, even with the gas pedal to the floor the rpms will shoot up but the vehicle will not move forward.if you stop and put the car in neutral it will sometimes fix itself but not always and this is not a good option to resort to in the middle of an intersection.this vehicle will also downshift on its own while you are driving at a high speed slowing your car without warning. Very dangerous if driving on the interstate with other vehicles around.was told replacing the electronic shift module (at $1100) may possibly fix the problem but the dealership was not sure that this would remedy the issue.
#1. V-8 the vehicle accelerates out of controll when accelerating from a stopped position, no consistently but intermitently' appears to try accerating to 65 mp cruise control. Must slam it into neutral to stop the vehicle in city traffic, extremely dangerous.#2. Transmission or powertrain is skipping lagging or bucking on acceleration from stopped position and from normal driving at all speeds, under 65 mp.can this be the computer?????
Engine stalls no matter what speed i'm going. Happens more often when coming to a stop. It's as if i just turn the key off. When it stalls, i stop and put it in park, turn the key off and start it right back up and take off.it's becoming a dangerous safety concern.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle unintentionally accelerated. While at a complete stop, the rpms dropped and the vehicle abruptly accelerated with the brake pedal depressed. The driver was able to engage the emergency brake to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to chrysler jeep dodge ram 24 located at 97 manley st. Brockton, ma 02301 for diagnostic testing, but there were no failure codes. The vehicle was also test driven, but the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 84,000.
As i was driving my car jerked real hard and all my dash lights came on and my ability to drive my car was useless. My jeep slowed down on the freeway during morning rush hour traffic almost causing several accidents. As i was trying to restart my jeep it just keep making a clicking noise and wouldn't stop. I had to pull the key from the ignition and reinsert the key and try to start the jeep. After 3 tries it started and i went to drive off and as i was accelerating my jeep did it again finally it stayed on and i was able to drive to a safe location. My jeep sounded real strange not like normal. This is the 7 th or 8th time this has happened since i had my jeep not even a year to date.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact states that while driving approximately 70 mph, all lights on the control panel illuminated and the vehicle decelerated.

While i am driving my jeep will buck and shut down.i then had to make my way over to the side of the road on the highway while cars are going 65mph or greater and my speed is slowing down.when i was able to pull over and stop.i had to remove the key and place the car in park before it would start.the first few times i tried while in neutral and moving to the side of the highway it would just continue to click and keep clicking.this has been happening several times a day now and my route to work is 95% highway.it is scary that someone might hit me and cause a terrible accident.i noticed this has happened to several jeeps around the world with the same issue.i noticed a recall for the jeep going into neutral but nothing about this major issue about the car bucking and stalling while driving.i noticed my jeep had its ignition switch changed out some time ago also.i wonder if he had problems before he traded.i have no other car to drive or i would and i have spent over $500 trying to find out what the issue is.please start investigating before someone gets hurt.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee.while driving at approximately 60 mph the accelerator pedal got stuck.he stepped on the brake pedal, which depressed all the way to the floor without stopping the vehicle.the vehicle would not stop until he shifted it into neutral and engaged the emergency brake.the vehicle was shut off and upon restart operated as normal.the vehicle was not taken to be examined for the cause of failure and was not repaired.the failure and current mileages were 56,000.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. While driving 45 mph, the vehicle suddenly decreased speed without warning. Also, the check engine indicator illuminated when the failure occurred. The failure occurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, but was not diagnosed. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified and advised the contact to file a complaint with nhtsa. The failure mileage was 137,000.
Vehicle has had the ignition recall done.in the hot weather,you can't run the air conditioning as the car will indiscriminately stall when you come to either a stop light or a yield.car has to be put in park and restarted. Last week, when merging onto a highway, rpms went all the way down.had to floor the car to get going and it knocked very hard.had jeep dealer look at this several times and they keep saying there's nothing wrong with the car. There is a problem here that jeep is not addressing.they don't want to give a fair buy back price on the car, knowing we have a 19 year old driving the vehicle.our local mechanic has said this is a very unsafe car and he wouldn't put his family in it.jeep dealers don't want to face the problem or address it.this has been an issue for over a year, but becomes more apparent in summer months of hot weather.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at 20 mph, an unknown warning light illuminated and suddenly the vehicle accelerated independently. The vehicle was shifted to the neutral position but the vehicle continued to rev and the accelerator pedal was stuck. The vehicle was turned off and in while in park, the accelerator pedal remained stuck. The vehicle was able to restart and operate correctly. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer wasnotified of the failure. The failure mileage was 90,000.
I am writing in regards to a possible new recall on the 2007 jeep cherokee laredo. The vehicle has been accelerating several times now when you take your foot off the gas. On 9/22/16 the vehicle was accelerating rapidly for 15 seconds even when i had my foot on the brake paddle trying to stop the vehicle. I have some recordings and next time this happens again i will be recording more footage to show that there is a problem with the acceleration on the 2007 jeep cherokee laredo. I would like to point out that after the recall of p41/nhtsa 14v-438 was complete and the ignition switch was replaced i have started to have problems. First the new part that was replaced caused the short in the vehicle which caused the vehicle not to start. This was fixed on my cost and now the vehicle accelerates by itself and it is very dangerous.
The contact owns a 2007 grand cherokee. While driving 5 mph, the traction control system activated when he hit a bump.as a result, the vehicle would not accelerate.the traction control would deactivate after approximately two seconds and the vehicle would accelerate.the contact stated that his foot would stick when he attempted to depress the brake pedal.he felt that an electrical box caused the failure.the dealer was unable to diagnose the failure.the current mileage was 23,587 and failure mileage was 600.updated 01-10-08. The consumer stated failures occurred frequently. Updated 12/31/07
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35 mph, the vehicle speed decreased without warning. The contact continued to depress the accelerator pedal and the vehicles speed eventually increased. The failure recurred on several occasions. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system), however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 20,000. Updated 1/19/16 ln
This is a continuing issue.the speed will suddenly decrease to 30 miles per hour without any action on drivers part.this is dangerous, especially on busy roads.we were told it was the front control module but after reading reviews it doesn't solve the problem.chrysler should be held responsible to identify the problem, then issue a recall.they are not interested in doing anything. We bailed them out?
Owned the 07 jeep for 5 months. Vehicle has been serviced for 2 different incidents. The 1st incident(actually happened several times) is when the vehicle would not shift during acceleration and it would force me to the side of the road where i would have to turn the vehicle on and off until it would run correctly. Was told by dealership service that it was a transmission sensor,had the part replaced-not covered by warranty. Less then 3 weeks later, 2nd incident occurred when i was driving 55mph down the interstate while accelerating to get over to an exit, the vehicle threw itself back into 2nd gear and i was forced to get over into the emergency lane so as not to be struck by oncoming traffic. The jeep had almost come to a complete stop in traffic! check engine light came on and went off after that. Dealership states the gear ratio and valve cover forced the vehicle into 2nd gear. Very dangerous!
I was not able to control the speed of my vehicle during acceleration.when i accelerated, the car would significantly decrease in speed almost as if it was running in low gear. It has happened at least 4 times since i purchased the car brand new.today at 60,000 mi it happened twice. A few months ago i tried to merge onto the freeway and lost power which was very dangerous and i had to turn on the hazard light and quickly pull over to the shoulder.i noticed all of the lights [ p, r, n, d] on the dash board were on.the car seems to reset when i shift to park or turn the ignition off and then on.the problem happens intermittently.i believe that this could be a manufacture defect.i took the car to 2 authorized jeep chrysler dealerships to get it checked out.one dealership told me that they've never heard of the problem, another one found a code u0404 but didn't know what it meant.i find this extremely dangerous and could be a manufacture defect.
As i was driving the truck jerked real hard which almost knocked the wind out of me and i lost control of steering, speed, i was unable to start the truck. I had to make my way to the shoulder in morning traffic on the highway to put the car in park and turn the ignition off and start it over again i had to do this 2 times before it started. Proceeded to get back into traffic and it jerked again this time it stopped running and started clicking all by itself until i stopped the truck and turned it off and started it again. This is not the first time this has happened and it very dangerous and from the looks of things this is a ongoing problem with this model & year jeep.
My 2007 jeep g.cherokee can be on the highway traveling 55 mph and then decided to die. It will shut off and cannot increase speed. I havea one year old in the back seat and this has happened to many times while having my son the back seatand trying to get over to the break down lane before it completely dies. Also doesn't start some days some will. Defiantly have electrical proven like in the recall. Their is a fuel relay recallthere is a many recalls for the same things happening to my jeep and it's becoming a hazard and scary for me traveling with my son.
The first incident happened when my jeep grand cherokee unknowingly shifted into neutral while driving down my neighborhood road.i was not aware of this until i tried to increase my speed and was not able to.i then had to turn off the car and turn it back on.this has happened three times since 2011.
As i was driving my car jerked real hard and all my dash lights came on and my ability to drive my car was useless.my jeep slowed down on the freeway during morning rush hour traffic almost causing several accidents.as i was trying to restart my jeep it just keep making a clicking noise and wouldn't stop.i had to pull the key from the ignition and reinsert the key and try to start the jeep.after 3 tries it started and i went to drive off and as i was accelerating my jeep did it again finally it stayed on and i was able to drive to a safe location.my jeep sounded real strange not like normal.this is the 5 or 6th time this has happened since i had my jeep not even a year to date.
Jeep looses power, will not accelerate over 30 mph.this has not happen on a highway yet (luckily) only in-town driving.no error codes present in dtc report or from a diagnostic that cost $90.00 something needs to be done about this before an accident results in a fatality.there seems to me many instances like this on these boards.this is the first investment of a 'real' vehicle that i've had.to pay money for something dependable is the goal.currently this vehicle is not dependable, let alone safe.
2007 jeep grand cherokee, throttle problems. ( at low speeds 5mph -25mph) vehicle hesitates sometime when you take off, sometimes it jumps off the line, some days you go around a corner and push the throttle and it don't do anything, then it takes off real quickly. When going up and down hills it hesitates or surges and changes gears abruptly. I took to dealer and they said it was common and did a computer re-flash at no cost. It dint help anything. There were 2 other jeeps there for the same problem. The dealer wants me to bring it back and leave it for the day so they can try to fix it. I wonder how many people have to die over something like this. I wonder how many people complained and died over the toyota problems before anyone investigated? its a real problem, look around on some of the jeep forums under idle or throttle problems. I found about 100 other complains about the same problems im having in about 15 minutes.
Car will stay at 40 mph as if locked into that speed. I press down on the gas pedal but the car will not go any faster. I have to pull over and turn the car off, when restarted it works fine for a while. Then randomly it will happen again. This has occurred roughly once a month for the past year. On line there are thousands of jeep owners reporting the same issue. I called jeep but they said car was out of warranty so tough luck. I have owned 23 cars and have never had a car do this to me. Other people have driven this car with the same issues. This has happened both on the highway and on rural streets.
For a couple years my jeep grand cherokee has experienced several episodes of ignition shut off.i spoke with my local dealer and they said it was not an issue with jeep, only some dodge models.i paid to have a 2nd computerized key made at the dealership, as dodge was saying their issue was related to the driver having other keys on ignition key ring.this way i had a single ignition key.still experienced the issue. Last time i was making a left hand turn from a subdivision on to a busy 2 lane hwy with a posted speed of 50 miles per hr.ignition shut off as i started to cross the right hand lane. Fortunately i had enough forward momentum to clear traffic and came to rest on the left hand shoulder by a farmers field.i finally received in the mail the official chrysler recall notice for my jeep due to ignition shut off. Called my local dealer this morning to set up an appointment, although the recall said they would contact me.with several incidents, i felt time was critical.my dealer advised me they had not received the official recall notification from chrysler and therefore could not schedule the repair free of charge.if however i wanted to pay for the repair they could schedule.i advised them that was not acceptable. Emailed chrysler customer relations and here also, my dissatisfaction and what appears to be a wonton disregard for human safety by a manufacture and their representative.
While i was driving home last night 12/16/11with my fiancee we stopped at a traffic light, and when the light turned green the jeep started back up fine all except it couldn't gofaster than 20 miles per hour. So i put my flashers on and the traffic behind me went around us, then it worked itself out, but did it again when i came to another traffic light. But this time i was able to use my manual shift to help it. No warning lights came on. And i just purchased this jeep 2 days ago. I would like to get this safety issue fixed since i have seen that this is a dangerous and common problem with the other 2007 jeep grand cherokees. I am also a firefighter and i depend on this jeep to get me to fire scenes and other emergency scenes, and i don't want to be in an emergency scene involving me due to the safety issues this jeep is having. Can someone please do a recall and have this issue fixed.
Hi,i have been having a lot of problems with my truck. I have contacted the chrysler recall center concerning the ignition switch and the safety of my vehicle. I have expressed over and over again that i do not feel safe in the vehicle. My truck will without warning begin to want to stop as if i am gliding then accelerates randomly. The 800 # sent me to a service center that updated system computer upgrades but it obviously has not helped the situation. I am a single more of 5 that has not option but to drive this vehicle for work and to take my children places.they only answer is that i have to wait until the part is available.this is not acceptable. Sometime all of my shift lights will go on at one time and my malfunction light now stays on. I pay almost $500 a month in car payments for a vehicle that is despite what chrysler's 800 # states is okay to drive. I need help.
Same description as many other consumers.slow, rough acceleration at all times.very difficult to accelerate especially when entering freeway. Need to pull over on ramp and turn off vehicle in hopes that restart will help.vehicle will stall while driving on freeway. Just completely shuts down.very dangerous for driver and those around driver.have to attempt to get to side of road and turn off vehicle and hope that upon restart vehicle will improve.too many complaints over the years have gone unheeded and an immediate recall needs to be done before serious injuries or deaths occur.
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle would hesitate to accelerate from stops for approximately three to four seconds. Once the vehicle would begin to accelerate, it would accelerate at a very high rate and the contact would have to quickly apply the brakes. The vehicle was not taken to have the failure diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 65,000.
I cannot remember the exact dates 1- vehicle would not start intermittently - throttle control modular replaced2- vehicle would not start starter replaced3- all dash warning lights keep going on and off vehicle lost power - engine light stayed on wiring and wiring harness replaced.4- all warning lights kept going on and off lost power - engine light finally stayed on dealer just reset the computer.5-all warning light went on lost power again then abs esp traction control lights on - broken wire fixed in the wiring that was replaced.6-all warning lights just went on again vehicle has 58k miles lost power now abs esp and traction control lights are on.
The car was a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. Once again as i was driving my vehicle shut down (jerked real hard) and i lost all driving capability etc power steering, speed control. . . . . I was driving on the freeway when my jeep shut down it was during morning rush hour traffic. It was hard for me to glide over to the shoulder when everyone around you is going 60 mph and you have no power steering. When i was able to get to the shoulder i placed the jeep in park and turned the vehicle off and removed the key and put the key back in and it started right up. This has been happening everyday now and why searching the internet i've ran across on here and elsewhere that i am not the only one having problems like this with my year and make. It is really dangerous and im surprised there hasn't been a recall yet or a terrible possible fatal accident due to the vehicle being non responsive in fast heavy traffic. This engine shut off without warning.i'm getting tired of going to different shops and no one knows what is wrong.apparently jeep has made a bad truck since this is a wide spread problem around the world for this year and model.
I would be driving and randomly it did hard shifts then it just stopped. The vehicle would be driving and loose speed and not go over 30 mph. The rpm are at 2500 at 30 mph and i can push the pedal to the floor and it goes no faster
I was driving 65 miles per hour on the expressway, when suddenly, my jeep began to decelerate until it reached about 40 miles per hour, even though i maintained constant pressure on the accelerator pedal.it felt like i had no control over the speed of the vehicle.traffic was light so i coasted, and pressed the pedal a little harder, until eventually, the suv lurched and then started to accelerate.about 3 minutes later, the same thing happened again while i was still driving on the expressway. The vehicle decelerate to 35 while it seemed that i could not control the speed, and then accelerated again. After the acceleration dropped and then increased the second time, i was able to maintain 65 miles per hour until i exited the expressway 15 miles later near my home.driving a vehicle under these conditions is a horrible feeling!i was so afraid that a car or truck moving at the normal speed would crash into me. If the traffic had been heavier, i would have had to pull over to the side of the highway, which would have been even more terrifying, because it was dark outside, and i had no idea what was going on or how long i would be stranded. We just had the suv's engine tuned one month ago at the dealer's service center, and we also had the oil changed at the same time.there haven't been any episodes like this until now. I'm actually afraid to drive the jeep again!
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at 25 mph, the contact depressed the accelerator pedal but the vehicle would not accelerate and the engine stalled without any warning. The vehicle was pulled over to the side of the road after few minutes when restarted, the vehicle then operated as normal. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 91,000.
Check engine light continues to come on at random. When it does, problems accelerating. Car will not accelerate past 20 or sometimes car "sputters" jerking a lot. Sometimes at red lights, rail road crossings, anything really where the car is stopped, car will not resume driving and car sounds like it is in neutral and i am reving it up. Electronic dash puts a bracket over each gear, p r n d, all at once. When engine light is on it is on for a period of days. When i turn the car on and put it in to drive it makes the most horrible sound as if i backed into a wall and jerks. Sometimes on the highway when the light is on it's as if i smell something burning through my air vents. Everytime i take it to the dealer or any shop just for a diagnosis it's just my luck that the light turns off and they tell me my car is fine. This car needs to be recalled from looking at the complaints!!!
My wife was driving our vehicle down the road and not even 2 miles the vehicle would not let her go faster than 30 mph and the vehicle would not shift out of gear. The check engine light came on and we took it to get an obii scan. The code that was prompted was an esm malfunction or transmission speed sensor. I am having so much trouble finding a speed sensor that is available and high priced. The esm is not hardly available anywhere except at a dealer. I have been reading tonight online and there have been many cases of these problems happening with some more severe incidents. If so many people are having shifting, esm and speed sensor issues, shouldn't this issue be addressed. I am pretty sure this isn't the first issue or complaint. I have a 3 year old and a vehicle that was named a smart buy by consumer guide automotive in 2006 and the redefining vehicle of jeeps flagship is a hazard and unsafe for my family. I will not be recommending a jeep of this year to anyone. I hope you take this incident with thoughtful consideration and start thinking about your consumers safety.[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
This problem has occurred almost every day for two months.i will describe one incident, which occurred this evening around 11pm. I was driving on the highway in my 2007 jeep grand cherokee when my accelerator stopped having any effect on my car.all of the gauges died (so the fuel reported empty, the speedometer said i was not moving, etc)- all of this while traveling at 65mph.i had to pull over, turn the car off and back on, and all of the problems went away.as i've said, this has happened once a day for the past two months.so far there appears to be no fix for the problem.
Once again as i was driving my vehicle shut down (jerked real hard) and i lost all driving capability etc power steering, speed control.....i was driving on the freeway when my jeep shut down it was during morning rush hour traffic.it was hard for me to glide over to the shoulder when everyone around you is going 60 mph and you have no power steering.when i was able to get to the shoulder i placed the jeep in park and turned the vehicle off and removed the key and put the key back in and it started right up.this has been happening everyday now and why searching the internet i've ran across on here and elsewhere that i am not the only one having problems like this with my year and make.it is really dangerous and im surprised there hasn't been a recall yet or a terrible possible fatal accident due to the vehicle being non responsive in fast heavy traffic.
Driving on the highway when the car suddenly accelerated nearly rear ending the car in front of me. The rpm's went up. Even when the car is in park the rpm's fluxuate go up and down.
I hadmade a left turn, begin to accelerate, and all of a sudden, car begun to shut down, car slowed down, until it came to a stop. Took car to dealer, problem was not fixed, continued to have same problem over next several years.i was unaware, and never received a notice of recall for transmission problem.i turned the power off, wait about 1 minute, started vehicle and it ran fine.during the ride, electrical panel began to flash, everything was turning on and off.gas gauge, and every other gauge on the panel went up and down.every light on the panel flashed on and off.this has happen many times over the years as well.i recently took vehicle to dealership in november 2013, who told me they could not fine anything wrong with my car.just in the last few weeks i have had this electrical problem, march 2014.what is wrong with my car, how can i get is fixed?what do i do if i have a recalled vehicle?
While pulling out of a gas station into heavy traffic, i began accelerating to the speed limit of 45 mph.i was accelerating rapidly as traffic was coming quickly from behind.the jeep stopped accelerating and the instrument panel showed all of the drive letters with boxes around them.the jeep would not accelerate for over 20 seconds, causing me to rapidly pull off of the road to avoid traffic behind me.the dealer found a faulty electronic shift module and replaced it.the vehicle has worked well until 2/15/12.at 70,000 miles, the dealer installed module has failed again.once more this happened when entering a heavy traffic roadway.there have been numerous reports throughout the internet of people experiencing this same issue. In my case, both failures resulted in me having to take evasive action to avoid a collision. I find it hard to believe that this seemingly common problem has not been identified as the tremendous safety problem it .
The contact owns a 2007 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated while driving approximately 55 mph, the vehicle failed to accelerate and decelerated independently. Also, the dashboard switches failed to operate and all of the warning lights illuminated. The failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The mechanic stated that the ignition switch needed to be replaced. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 14v438000 (electrical system). However, the parts needed were unavailable to perform the repairs. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unavailable.

Started with traction control light flashing, then it slowed vehicle felt like brakes were on, gave it more gas and got no speed increase, pressed on the brake and then it seemed to surge and speed up on its own. This was unexpected acceleration &could have lost control. After this! it went back to normal driving. Next day took a 110 mile trip traveling 70 mph on highway no issues until i arrived at destination pulled into driveway and putin park and several warning lights came on abs, esp, bas, &traction control light flashing & service 4 wheel drive...i had no problems until i stopped...when i started up to return home all the above lights stayed onbacked up out of driveway , when i put it in drive and gave it gas it started to make a bad grinding sound like metal on metal a clunking sound and did no't respond to fuel peddle.i increased speed then i felt it release like park brake being released...it drove normal back home dash lights still on,... 110 mile trip doing 70 most of the way...at home i used the built in vehicle scanner and got code u1417 which indicates front left wheel sensor... I replaced both sides same grinding sound, replaced the 2 back sensor... Now i have no lights on dash and no grinding clunking sounds no sounds at all.

Regarding windshield clearing of 2002 jeep and 2007 jeep grand cherokee.the driver side windshield wiper does not clear the center of the windshield.the dealer suggested that i replace the wiper, which i did without success.the area that does not clear is directly in line with the drivers view.the passenger side clears well.i contacted a company that replaces windshields and they told me that the problem is with the spring tension on the wiper arm.i did not yet replace the are thinking that a new arm would have the same spring tension.my daughters jeep ( the 2002) has the same problem.how could this condition have existed for 5 years without correction?it would seem unlikely that these 2 cars are the only ones that have this problem.do you have any record of this condition causing accidents?

In may 2007 we started having problems with the a/c and blower motor on our vehicle.i conducted research and found through tech advisory the blower control module were the problem and were being replaced.i disconnected the blower control module and could see the unit had melted around the wire harness plug.i did exactly as the tech advisory recommended and replaced the blower control module and wire harness plug.less than 70 days the exact same problem has occurred again.i pulled the blower control module out and could see the new module had once again melted around the replaced plug.i called the dealership and was told they would warranty the part and i just needed to bring the original invoice and bad melted blower control module in and they would give me a new one.i did that last night and when i was at the dealership they looked at the melted blower control module and told me because i did not replace the entire wire harness they would not replace the melted module.i inquired as to the cost to replace the entire wire harness as it required pulling out the entire dash to simply unplug the old harness and plug the new one in.i was told 8 hours of labor and cost of parts for the new harness and blower control module which was estimated at $700.00.the parts themselves are less than $200.00.when i replaced the original part i did it exactly as the tech advisory told me so which was dated sometime in may 2007.in addition to the part melting it has sank the top edge of the carpet in the passenger side floor board.i view this as an extreme safety hazard and could actually case a fire in the vehicle.the dealership advised no warranty recalls have been issued for this issue either.i think chrysler should re-examine how many of these blower control modules they have replaced and the risk they are putting the public at by not recalling them.any assistance in this matter would be appreciated.
The auto up/down feature for the drivers side power window does not work. When using the button, the window will go up a bit then back down, then up and down. Could potentially be a problem in that the window will not close.
Power window failure (design flaw) my driver and passenger windows have both failed. After research on the internet, this is a common problem for jeep and they have not addressed the issue, still selling the defective part with no modifications to correct issue.
After being parked the jeep would not start, code displayed in the dash stated transmission over temp, after sitting for about 30 more minutes the jeep started - drove home and it would not start again - took it to a garage and they could not get the problem to replicate after having it for a week.july 5, 2011 - jeep would not start again,transmission over temp code, still intermittent, after 2 weeks the garage replaced the transmission control module, august 6, 2012 - transmission over temp error code, this time it will not start after any pause in driving, had it towed to the dealer and they are saying its the starter (jeep now has about 65,000 miles on it)-also had to replace the right front speed sensor (it is bad and causing the traction control system not to function properly).[additional notes: had to replace the esm at 28596 miles, jeep loss of engine power and all lights lit up on gear shifter, at 27170 miles had to replace both front window regulators].
We have had the windows in our 2002 jeep cherokee just drop,when taken to the dealer the whole window regulator has to be replaced, even though it is a small piece that breaks. The same window twice has now fallen. The dealer rep said this is a huge problem for the jeep line and they have had to order large ammounts of the regulators to keep up with the breakage. We have a 2006 jeep liberty at the tv station i work at and both of the rear windows did the same thing,yet no recall by the manfacuter,when asked at the dealer they just shrug their sholder the cost of the unit is around $450 dollars and then the cos of labor thank you.
The auto up-down for windows goes up then down the up then down,and continues like this. It might be possible to get your hand caught in the window or district the driver while trying to fix the problem or you must leave the window open and hope the car does not get stolen or damaged.the dealer stated that the parts to fix this problemwas currently under review by the legal departmentof jeep, and theyweretrying to keep this problem a low profile before the government foundout.
The auto up/down feature for the drivers side power window does not work. When using the button, the window will go up a bit then back down, then up and down. Could potentially be a problem in that the window will not close. Will take vehicle to dealer tomorrow.
