2015 JEEP CHEROKEE Complaints

THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON. DEALERSHIP SAYS THE PTU UNIT HAS TO BE CHANGED. COST $2200, CAR IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD.

CAR STALLED OUT GOING 25 MILES AN HOUR WHILE DRIVING ON A SIDE STREET. TEMPERATURE 102 AT 3:02PM. VEHICLE HAD ONLY BEEN RUNNING LESS THAN 30 MINUTES. ALL DASH LIGHTS CAME ON, SCROLLED THRU EACH SERVICE NOTICE {CHECK ENGINE, TURN SIGNALS, ETC..} AFTER 3RD ATTEMPT TO RESTART VEHICLE, IT STARTED. TOOK 27 MINUTES. ONCE STARTED, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION WARNING LIGHT AND MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHTS WERE BOTH ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DON K CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (6219 HWY 93 S, WHITEFISH, MT 59937, (406) 862-2571) HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE FAILURE. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE JERKS ME EXTREMELY HARD AND ENGINE MAKES LOUD THUMP NOISE. I'VE ALMOST HIT MULTIPLE VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME FROM IT JULTING ME FORWARD. I'M PREGNANT AND IT'S EXTREMELY CONCERNING.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMES ON I HAVE SEEN THIS CAUSES BRAKES TO EVENTUALLY LOCK UP AND CAUSE ACCIDENTS BUT HAVE NOT SEE A RECALL

MY TRANSMISSION IS NOT SHIFTING RIGHT. KICKING EVERYTIME SHIFTING. THE VEHICLE LOSS POWER.

WHEN STARTING IN MOTION THE CAR HESITATED THEN JERKS INTO MOTION. IT WILL JERK BETWEEN SHIFTING GEARS IN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. SOMETIMES IT JERKS SO HARD LIKE YOU WERE REAR ENDED. WE HAVE REPORTED SEVERAL TIMES TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEEP TELLING US NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT. IT WILL HESITATE AND JERK IN REVERSE AND FORWARD. AT TIMES IT FEELS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING EVER SINCE WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE.

AT AROUND 40,000 MILES, TOUCH SCREEN/RADIO WOULD RANDOMLY SHUT OFF AND ON, AND SERVICE SHIFTER COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY. SOMETIMES STAYS ON CONSTANTLY, SOMETIMES COMES ON AND OFF. VERY FRUSTRATING AS NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED THESE ISSUES ALL OVER THE INTERNET, BUT JEEP HAS DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT IT. SOME REPORTS EVEN MENTION INJURIES INVOLVED IN THE ISSUE. NO VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE THESE ISSUES THIS COMMONLY AT A VERY ACCEPTABLE LOW MILEAGE.

SERVICE SHIFTER AND SERVICE 4WD LIGHTS COME UP ON DASH AND THE SHIFTER PRND LIGHTS COME ON AT SHIFTER ON START UP AND WHILE DRIVING AND HAVE TO CUT SWITCH ON AND OFF IN ORDER TO DRIVE IT AT TIMES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WITH SEVERAL SHIFT OPTION WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, THE FAILURE WAS OCCASIONALLY SELF CORRECTED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER WERE NOTIFIED HOWEVER, NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000. INVALID VIN.
