The fuel pump recall can cause a major problem if on a highway or interstate (engine can quit suddenly and without warning, according to the recall notice). This recall has been act for nearly a year with no resolution in sight (NHTSA recall number 22V-406, manufacturer recall number Z46).

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer after receiving notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V699000 (Engine and Engine Cooling) and the recall repair was performed. Shortly after the check engine light had illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve had failed. The contact was informed that the exhaust was leaking into the engine and seeping into the cabin of the vehicle. The contact was informed that the failure was related to the recall repair; however, the dealer was unable to provide another repair free of charge. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case regarding the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 235,000.

the vehicle is beginning to choke when accelerating - loss of power is noticed. the engine light is on. This recall was issued in June of 2022. here we are almost a year later, and there are still no parts for repair?? Why?

Since purchasing the 2014 Jeep GC Overland with a v6 engine new in 2013 I have had an occasional problem where it shifts unexpectedly from auto to manual (paddles not touched) on acceleration from a slow/stopped position. Problem has happened every year of ownership including April 2023! Local dealer and manufacture have tried to find and fix the problem with limited success over the years. Most of my complaints are in the car's file with dealer/manufacture. The transfer case was recalled on the 2014 year Jeep GC Overland V6 but they said mine was not included however the symptoms are the same. This exclusion was based on my vin which indicated that it had a different trans case but I am not sure that they both should have been recalled if different. Again this safety problem was experienced in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023.

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact received notification of the NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V406000 (Fuel System, Diesel) however, the parts to do the recall repair were not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Gear switching to Neutral while driving, stops abruptly, steering locks up, and the vehicle shuts down completely. In order to restart, the battery requires a jump. The battery is fairly new and shows good voltage. 05/29/2023 (UPDATE) The issue was corrected with the installation of a new battery. Although the battery (2.5 years old) was indicating good voltage levels during testing, it would dip below 9v while driving. As explained by the Jeep dealer mechanic, this was causing the vehicle to immediately shut down, lock steering, and abruptly halt. I believe it’s still a safety issue. If I had been on the freeway, it would have likely created a serious danger to anyone unable to stop, or maneuver, in time.

I have to keep replacing my engine oil housing filter. I do believe I was sold a faulty engine from Carvana after I was told it was inspected thoroughly. The car isn't even at 70,000 and I've had more repairs on it than I could imagine. The engine light keeps coming on and if I have to replace the entire engine that will be up to 10,000.

Safety recall does not have parts available to fix. Vehicle may stop running unexpectedly. My car stopped running in December and has fragments of the engine. I’m not sure if it is related to this recall or not. My car’s engine is being replaced right now by the dealer, under warranty, but I cannot trade it in for what it is worth because of this outstanding safety recall.
