2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

THE VEHICLE HESITATES TO START WHEN PUSHING THE BUTTON. TAKES MULTIPLE REPEATED TIMES TO START.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, IN PARK. DRIVER'S SIDE HEADREST SPONTANEOUSLY DEPLOYED AND BROKE THE BRACKET.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AT 106,000 MI. WAS TOLD IT WAS AN ISSUES WITH THE WIRING IN THE HEAD RESTRAINT. WOULD NEED TO HAVE HEAD REST REPLACED FOR $700. I DON'T BELIEVE THERE IS ANY REASON THIS SHOULD HAVE FAILED AS THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT

DRIVER SIDE AIR CONDITIONER BLOWS HOT AIR EVEN WHEN TEMP IS SET AS LOW AS 63 DEGREES WHILE THE PASSENGER SIDE WORKS NORMALLY. SERVICE REP AT DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP VEHICLES. WAS TOLD REPAIRS COULD BE OVER $1000. IF JEEP KNOWS THAT THIS IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM, WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR ERROR?

VEHICLE DOES NOT RELIABLY START WHEN THE BRAKE AND ENGINE BUTTON ARE PUSHED. THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP, BUT THERE IS NO MESSAGE AND VEHICLE FAILS TO START. I OFTEN HAVE TO TRY 3-4 TIMES TO GET THE VEHICLE TO START, ULTIMATELY HAVING THE KEY AT THE PUSH START BUTTON. KEY FOB BATTERIES HAVE BEEN REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES, STAR CASE WAS OPENED, AND WIN MODULE REPLACED. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE MANY TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE, WHICH REMAINS. CHRYSLER CASE MANAGEMENT IS WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE ONLY "POSSIBLE" CONNECTION FOUND IS AN INCOMPATIBILITY WITH CUP LED LIGHTING AND KEY FOB TECHNOLOGY. IN ADDITION TO BEING FRUSTRATING, IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

NOTICED WHEN I WAS ON THE FREEWAY STEERING GOT REALLY WOBBLY THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE I ROATETED MY TIRES HOWEVER POPPED MY HOOD AND NOTICE MY POWER STEERING RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY FILLED IT UP AND THAN NOTICED GREEN ALL OVER MY DRIVEWAY.

WENT THROUGH A CAR WASH AND 2 MINUTES LATER ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON IN THE DASH ALSO SERVICE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE CAME ON WITH A CHIME SOUND I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HAVE CODE READ AND STORED CODES ARE AS FOLLOWS U041500, U040300 THE ABS LIGHTS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND SERVICE 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT WENT OFF A DAY LATER WAS TOLD A POSSIBLE WATER GOT INTO SOMETHING AND THEN DRIEDOUT

I HAD MY VEHICLE IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE EXACTLY 2 MONTHS AGO, MILEAGE WAS AT 58733. THE OTHER DAY AFTER A TRIP OUT OF TOWN, I NOTICED A LARGE PUDDLE OF OIL UNDER MY CAR. TAKE MY CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP, MILEAGE IS NOW AT 60579, THINKING MAYBE SOMETHING WASN'T TIGHTENED PROPERLY AFTER THE OIL CHANGE TO FIND OUT THAT MY OIL FILTER ADAPTER HOUSING IS LEAKING DOWN THE BELL HOUSING. THE OIL LEAK WAS NOTICED WHILE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY, IT JUST RAN OUT 7 MONTHS. REPAIRS COST ME $1200.00. I REACHED OUT TO DEALER AFTER READING ALL THE KNOWN ISSUES WITH THIS PROBLEM WITH JEEP AND ASKED IF THE HOUSING COULD HAVE BEEN CRACKED UPON THE LAST OIL CHANGE. OBVIOUSLY, I DO NOT REALLY DRIVE THAT MUCH BUT AFTER THIS LONG TRIP IS WHEN THE OIL REALLY POURED OUT OF THE CAR.

ABS AND STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH ALSO THE DASH SAYS SERVICE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE IT ALL HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME I THINK IT MIGHT BE PART OF THE ABS RECALL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AN UNKNOWN DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000.*DT *TR
