2015 JEEP CHEROKEE Complaints

I currently have 87000 miles. I have a service 4 wheel drive 4 wheel drive unavailable light. I had this light scanned and it turns out that my ptu is defective and malfunctioning. I recently did research on this and found out there was a recall on this issue. The recall number is w47 campaign number 20V343. There’s another recall number w48 campaign number 20E037. These are related to the ptu in models 2014 through 2017. Not sure why my vehicle was not included in this recall. From what I was reading this defective part can cause serious safety issues. I never received a recall notice for this even though my vehicle is a 2015 which apparently has this issue that jeep know about. The part alone for the ptu is over 1000 dollars and I no longer have warranty.

Water fills up in the spare tire component which corroded the emergency brake box. I took it to the local Sunoco to fix they contacted Chrysler and was told to give the car back to me as is I should have it fixed by the dealership. My car is currently at a dealership and they’re telling me I have to pay $1600 for the repair. But if you Google this is a common problem with this vehicle.

My jeep Cherokee have a 4wd warning indication services need. It automatically shifts my power train to snow. Also when in park. The vehicle starts to go to neutral. Please recall this. My car is 2015 Jeep Cherokee trailhawk. I’ve never had an accident and this is either a system glitch or engine issue that can cause damage and injury.

The emergency brake engages on its own. In the past i have been able to release it after it "auto engages", sometimes taking more than 1 attempt. I stopped at a gas station last week. When I started my car to leave, the emergency brake auto engaged itself and would not release. Error message on screen read "service park brake". I called the local service department of chrystler/dodge/jeep dealership. Followed their directions to release the brake. However it would not release still. The incident left me and 2 children stranded for 2 hours. I had my vehicled towed to the dealership. Currently still awaiting resolution.

My brakes have totally locked up on my vehicle. The vehicle is undrivable at this point. I just have it sitting in the garage for now.

In June 2022, my electronic parking brake engaged and would not unlock. On the dash, the Parking Brake light, the Brake light and the Stop/Start light were all illuminated. I was unable to drive the vehicle. I had to have AAA tow it to the dealer to find out what was wrong with it. The dealer I took it to had to install a new Parking brake module and rewire 32 pins on the new connector. They informed me that there was corrosion on the unit and did not find any water in the compartment area. My vehicle is a 2015 Jeep Cherokee and at the time of the repair it only had 40,649 miles on it. I had to pay right at $1,200.00 for this repair and I feel I should be reimbursed from the manufacturer since the vehicle was only 7 years old and has low miles. This will happen again if they don't come up with a fix for it.
