2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V567000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). 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 NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

WHEN USING THE LANE CHANGE FEATURE OF THE TURN SIGNALS (I.E. DEPRESSING THE TURN SIGNAL LEVER UNTIL YOU HIT THE FIRST DETENT, WHICH THEN ACTIVATES THREE TURN SIGNAL FLASHES AND THEN AUTOMATICALLY TURNS OFF)IT OCCASIONALLY FLASHES THE WRONG DIRECTION. YOU WANT TO INDICATE RIGHT BUT IT MAY FLASH LEFT, IT MAY FLASH ALL LEFT SIGNALS OR SOME LEFT AND SOME RIGHT DURING THE SAME SEQUENCE. IT HAPPENS IN BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT DIRECTIONS. IT HAPPENS DURING ABOUT 5% OF THE TIME WHEN USING THE LANE CHANGE, TURN SIGNAL FEATURE. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP BUT RECEIVED NO ASSISTANCE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. AFTER PULLING OFF THE ROAD AND RESTARTING THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 101,000.

TURN SIGNAL FOR LANE CHANGE (FLASH SIGNAL) REBOUNDS BY ITSELF TO SIGNAL THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I WAS HITTING THE TURN INDICATOR AFTER THE "FLASH" IN THE CORRECT DIRECTION, BUT IT IS A FAULTY DEVICE. DRIVERS SEE YOU SIGNAL A LANE CHANGE, AS YOUR MAKING THE CHANGE AS INDICATED, THE TURN SIGNAL (BY ITS SELF) WILL SIGNAL THE OTHER WAY (IT REBOUNDS FROM THE FLASHED DIRECTION TO THE OTHER DIRECTION). OTHER DRIVERS DON'T KNOW YOUR INTENTIONS, THEY THINK YOU ARE COMING BACK INTO THE LANE YOU JUST CHANGED FROM. ITS IS DANGEROUS AND FRUSTRATING. MY OPINION IS A FORCED RECALL TO REPLACE THE TURN INDICATION SHOULD OCCUR, IT IS NOT SAFE. IT MAY HAVE OCCURRED A FEW TIMES FROM A REGULAR TURN INDICATOR, WHERE THE TURN SIGNAL HANDLE IS FULLY ENGAGED, BUT ALMOST ALWAYS IT WILL OCCUR FOR THE LANE CHANGE "FLASH" SIGNAL. IT IS NOT ME HITTING INDICATOR.

VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION ON POSITION WOULD RANDOMLY, WHILE DRIVING KICK TO THE OFF POSITION. IT WOULD REQUIRE PLACING THE CAR IN PARK AND RE-START THE VEHICLE. THERE IS AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT IT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY VIN NUMBER.
