I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE MY THERMOSTAT ABOUT 6 TIMES SINCE I GOT THE CAR IN 2017. THE HOUSING BREAKS AND IT LEAKS CAUSING OVER HEATING

THE AHR DEPLOYED EVEN THOUGH THE JEEP WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY COLLISION; NO REAR, SIDE, FRONT, ETC. IMPACT. THE HEAD REST ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE JUST DEPLOYED ON ITS OWN. WE HAVE WATCHED VIDEOS ON HOW TO RESET IT, BUT HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

TWICE ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS, WHEN GOING ABOUT 25 MILES AN HOUR ON A TOWN ROAD AND BREAKING AND TURNING TO THE RIGHT (ONE TIME WAS MORE RIGHT THAN THE OTHER), MY CAR LOSES POWER OUT OF NO WHERE. MY ENGINE SHUTS OFF, I LOSE POWER STEERING, AND I LOSE MY BREAK ASSIST. IT IS VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE A LIFE THREATENING ACCIDENT. I CROSSED OVER INTO THE OPPOSITE LANE OF TRAFFIC WITH LITTLE TO NO CONTROL. FORTUNATELY BOTH TIMES NO ONE WAS NEAR ME AND I WAS ABLE TO COME TO A STOP. I CAN THEN RESTART THE CAR AND DRIVE AWAY. I DONT KNOW HOW TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. I HAVE SEEN OTHER REPORTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH OTHER GRAND CHEROKEES ON THE INTERNET. I DONT KNOW IF THE CURRENT RECALL THAT I NEED IS SUPPOSED TO ADDRESS IT OR NOT BUT I PLAN ON CALLING MY DEALER ABOUT IT ASAP. MY CAR IS ABOUT 149K MILES. I THINK THE LIGHTS STAY ON WHEN THIS HAPPENS.
