Shocks failed at under 50k miles and should not have had this issue at such a low mileage. I have a baby so driving a vehicle with shocks that have busted does not feel safe at all. Dealership has done a diagnostic and no longer under warranty, Extended warranty does not cover it as well. Stuck paying a diagnostic fee and shocks are on back order with 250 plus in line to get them.

Updating NHTSA ID Number 11382705, 10/22/20. Dealer diagnosed issue on 9/15/21 and it was caused by a defective battery. Battery was replaced and there has been no further issue. Please remove or supplement No. 11382705

I was evacuating the Colorado Marshall Fires and my 2020 Grand Jeep Cherokee with 20,000 miles just quit while driving down the road. It was slow moving traffic out of the area with 100 MPH winds, heavy smoke and debris flying through the air. As I tried to restart it, there was a message about some sensor, but unclear as to what exactly the message was. The engine would not turn over. The car was partially blocking traffic and caught on fire approximately 10 minutes after it stopped. Those evacuating were down to one lane and navigating around a burning car. No investigation is possible as it is completed burned up. I have followed all of the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedules and have had zero incidents with this Jeep prior to this. I would like some sort of investigation as to the cause (an assessment of the situation as there is no car left to inspect). I do not want this happening to another person/family as they are trying to get out of a dangerous situation. I was lucky in that there were others evacuating, however, had I been in an isolated area, my dogs and I could have been dead.

The contact owns a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. Several unknown warning lights illuminated on the instrument cluster. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and diagnosed with 45 error codes relating to the vehicle not being able to communicate with the blind spot and doors due to battery failure. The battery was replaced; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed back to the dealer. The contact was uncertain if the dealer diagnosed the vehicle with engine control module (ECM) or body control module (BCM) failure. The dealer informed the contact that the windshield seal was not installed correctly during manufacturing, which caused water to seep in and damage the engine control module (ECM) or body control module (BCM). The vehicle was not repaired and remained at the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that the vehicle was not covered since it did not have an extended warranty. The failure mileage was 14,787.

Screen constantly freezes and it's unresponsive for long periods of time, then reboots. Then the cycle repeats. Serious safety hazard as the back up camera image freezes on the screen and doesn't change, even though your moving and the image video should have changed. This has been happening since the car was bought new and dealership says they're nothing that can be done

I bought my 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk used from Carmax and after barely having it 7 months it is now totaled by Insurance company. The reason: driving home from work on state highway at approx. 45mph on November 24, 2021 after dark. Came over rise in road to see about 10 vehicles completely stopped in front of me about 100 yards away. I applied the brakes and nothing happened. Took foot off brake pedal & tried again... nothing. I had to swerve off road to keep from running into back of vehicle(s) stopped in front of me. Was able to safely miss damaging/injuring any other vehicles/people. Struck a tree on the left front of Jeep. Applying brakes did not stop or slow my Jeep Grand Cherokee's speed. When tree was struck at approx. 45mph the airbags did not even deploy.

My Safety as well as other Drivers safety are at risk when you down the highway at a speed between 70 & 75 miles an hour and all off a sudden your engine quits, I was told it goes into limp mode, I turned off engine, started it again could not get power, turn off engine again waited a few minutes and it finally gave me some power, was told by the Dealership that they could not find anything the computer may have reset itself, in a one week period it did twice, I nearly got hit or the person could have got killed hitting me. This is definitely a safety issue I think this should be a recall.
