2015 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Complaints

THE HEADREST ON MY JEEP POPPED FORWARD SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE PARKED. THIS APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY A FAILURE OF THE PLASTIC PARTS OF THE WHIPLASH MITIGATION SYSTEM BUILT INTO THE SEAT. WHILE THE SEAT WAS UNOCCUPIED AT THE TIME I FEEL THIS WOULD HAVE CAUSED INJURY HAD SOMEONE BEEN IN THE SEAT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY START, AND THE START BUTTON HAD TO BE PUSHED SEVERAL TIMES. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL WHILE DRIVING AND BACKFIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER WHITTEN BROTHERS CHRYSLER LOCATED AT 10701 MIDLOTHIAN TURNPIKE, RICHMOND, VA 23235, WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

MY CARS DRIVER SIDE HEADREST DEPLOYED WHEN I STARTED THE CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY IN PARK.

I WAS SLOWING DOWN FOR A STOP SIGN, WHEN I HEARD A POP AND THEN FELT MY DRIVER SIDE HEADREST HIT ME IN THE HEAD. AFTER I STOPPED I SAW THAT IT HAD BEEN DEPLOYED WITH THE CLIPS BEING BROKEN.

UPON ENTERING THE CITY STREET A LOUD BANG WAS HEARD FROM THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE AND CAR STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. POWER WAS IN THE VEHICLE BUT ABILITY TO SHIFT IN GEAR WAS GONE. AFTER TURNING OFF AND BACK ON I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE JEEP IN DRIVE IN ORDER TO CLEAR THE ROAD AS TO AVOID A TRAFFIC BUILD UP. IT SEEMS THE TRANSMISSION IS GONE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL NOT CHANGE INTO GEAR NOR REVERSE. A WRECKER COMPANY WAS CONTACTED TO BRING JEEP TO DEALER.

WE HAD JUST LEFT HOME ON A FAMILY TRIP, TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE PASSENGER HEADREST VIOLENTLY SPRANG OPEN, STRIKING MYSELF IN THE HEAD. WE WERE A LIE TO GET THE VEHICLE STOPED, LOOKED THE WHOLE VEHICLE OVER TO MAKE SURE NOTHING COULD HAVE CAUSE THE HEADREST TO RELEASE LIKE THAT. THE HEADREST PLASTIC THAT LOCKS INTO THE SAFETY RELEASE HAD BROKEN DUE TO DETERIORATION OF THE PLASTIC. LUCKILY IT WASN'T THE DRIVER SIDE BECAUSE IT POSSIBLY COULD HAVE CAUSED A WREAK/LOSS OF LIFE. STILL WAITING ON MANUFACTURE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

MY 6.4 HEMI HAD A LIFTER FAILURE. IT HAS BEEN VERY WELL MAINTAIN OIL CHANGES EVERY 3/5700 MILES. 1000 MILES AGO HAD THE OIL CHANGE. AS IT GOT WARMER THE ENGINE HAD A 'TICK' NOISE. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT A VERY COMMON LIFTER ISSUE HAS HAPPEN. I AM SHY 3 MONTHS POST WARRANTY. TEAM SRT CLAIMED IT CAN BE NORMAL MAINTENANCE FOR THE LIFTERS TO FAIL AND WIPE OUT THE CAM. THEY WILL NOT COVER IT. GOOGLE SEARCH HEMI LIFTER ISSUE. YOU'LL SEE TONS OF CASES.

LEATHER INSTRUMENT PANEL (IP) COVER DELAMINATING- MY WHOLE LEATHER DASHBOARD IS BUBBLING UP AND COMING OFF. JEEP SAID THEY WONT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE THE X81 RECALL WAS ONLY FOR CARS 2011-2014. MY CAR IS 2015 SUMMIT WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON AN ACTIVE CITY STREET ROADWAY, THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADREST ON THE FRONT SEAT DEPLOYED. MY HUSBAND WAS IN THE SEAT AT THE TIME AND CAUSED HIM TO JOLT FORWARD CAUSING A SLIGHT NECK PAIN. THE UNEXPECTED POP OF THE HEADREST DEPLOYING CAUSED ME, THE DRIVER, TO SWERVE DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE PASSENGER HEADREST DEPLOYED. RETAINING CLIPS ARE BROKEN AND THE ENTIRE HEADREST REQUIRES REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS AND THERE WAS NO JARRING MOTION OF ANY KIND WHEN THE DEPLOYMENT OCCURRED.
