ON OCT 29 AT 19991 MILEAGE,THE CELL DID NOT START AT ALL AND FOUND THE BATTERY DEAD ON JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE 2.4 L 2019 MODEL PARKED INSIDE THE GARAGE. I USED THE BATTERY CHARGER OVERNIGHT. ON OCT 30, I HAD TO CALL MOPAR SERVICE FOR JUMP START AS MY CHARGER DID NOT WORK. AFTER JUMP, THE ENGINE CLUNKED AND RUN BUT FLASHING ALL INTERIOR LIGHT AND SEVERAL WARNINGS SUCH AS ,ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL,SERVICE 4WD,POWER BRAKE ON DASHBOARD. WHEN I TRIED TO PULL OUT A CAR FROM GARAGE AND SHIFTED THE GEAR TO THE REAR,"THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION RESTART IN PARK WITH VEHICLE AT ZERO SPEED ' DISPLAYED AND ENGINE STOPPED AGAIN.THEN CAR WAS TOWED TO JEEP DEALER.ON OCT 31 THE DEALER CALLED ME AND SAID THE CAR IS READY TO PICK UP. AT THE DEALER, THEY EXPLAINED THE ONE CELL IN THE BATTERY WAS BAD AND REPLACED TO THE NEW BATTERY. ALTHOUGH I ASKED TO EXPLAIN WHY THE BATTERY DAMAGED SO QUICKLY AND IT THERE WAS ANY VEHICLE ELECTRIC SYSTEM. BUT THEY SAID THE THE TECHNICIAN CHECKED ALL SYSTEM AND CONFIRMED ALL OK. BUT NO EXPLANATION WAS PROVIDED WHY SO MANY WARNING S DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD.

I PURCHASED A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE TRAILHAWK ON 11/11/2019. THAT SAME EVENING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, UCONNECT, AND LIGHTS ALL CUT OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS CAUSED THE ENGINE CONTROL TO BE CUT AND DTC'S FOR BRAKES, ESC, TRANSMISSION, AND THE SHIFTER. THANKFULLY THE FIRST FEW TIMES THIS HAPPENED ON A STREET WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC DURING RUSH HOUR AND I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON THE SECOND DAY WHILE IN MOTION ON A SIDE ROAD AND AGAIN THE THIRD DAY EXCEPT WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. AFTER THE THIRD DAY, I SCHEDULED IT FOR SERVICE AT A LOCAL JEEP DEALER. UPON HAVING MY VEHICLE FOR FIVE DAYS, THE DEALER DISCOVERED A CORRODED/FAULTY GROUND AND MADE THE NECESSARY REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE WAS PICKED UP ON 11/18/2019. IT DROVE GREAT UNTIL 11/20/2019 WHEN THE POWER ONCE AGAIN WAS CUT FROM THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, UCONNECT, AND LIGHTS. THIS ALSO RESULTED IN A LOSS OF ENGINE CONTROL WITH THE SAME ARRAY OF DTC CODES BEING DISPLAYED AND ALSO OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OFF THE ROAD AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THANKFULLY THIS HAPPENED ROUGHLY A MILE FROM THE DEALER AND I WAS ABLE TO LIMP THE JEEP THERE. THEY CHECKED THE CODES AND ADVISED ME TO BRING THE VEHICLE BACK IN THE MORNING. ON 11/21/2019 I RETURNED THE JEEP TO THE DEALER WHERE IT IS CURRENTLY BEING WORKED ON AGAIN. THIS VEHICLE IS AN EXTREME DANGER TO NOT ONLY MYSELF BUT TO OTHER MOTORISTS THAT COULD POTENTIALLY COLLIDE WITH ME DUE TO THE RANDOM AND UNPREDICTABLE NATURE OF THE ISSUE. I AM SO CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE THAT I WILL NOT ALLOW MY CHILDREN TO RIDE IN MY VEHICLE WITH ME.

MY 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE TRAILHAWK HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THE SECOND TIME SINCE DEC 14 FOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. ATTACHED IS MY 10/27/19 LETTER TO CHRYSLER DESCRIBING THE PROBLEM. BASICALLY CAR CUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING (EVEN ON FREEWAY) AND HAVE TO DRIFT TO A STOP AND ATTEMPT TO RESTART CAR SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT STARTS UP.

I BOUGHT MY JEEP ON DECEMBER 12, 2018 FROM JT'S JEEP IN LEXINGTON SC. AT ROUGHLY 400 MILES, THE START/STOP SYSTEM LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND DISPLAYED A MESSAGE FOR SERVICE.I PARKED THE JEEP AND SHUT IT OFF, AND RESTARTED. WORKED FINE AFTER THAT. AT ROUGHLY 1,600 MILES, IT DID THE SAME THING AGAIN. SAME PROCEDURE. WENT AWAY. AT 7,500 MILES I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AND THEY CHECKED AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. AT 8000 MILES I WAS MERGING ONTO THE INTERSTATE IN COLUMBIA SC AND STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND IT LOST ALL POWER; POWER STEERING, ACCELERATION, BRAKING, AND DISPLAYED A MESSAGE OF "ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAULT" I MANAGED TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED, DROVE TO GA FINE. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER HERE IN GA, THEY KEPT IT AN ENTIRE WEEK AND CLAIMED NOTHING WAS WRONG. BUT THAT THEY FIXED A RECALL THAT WOULD REMEDY THE ISSUE. IT HAS NOT. IT HAS DONE THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN, SOMETIMES COMPLETELY LOCKING DOWN, OTHER TIMES JUST ILLUMINATING THE AUTO START STOP SERVICE LIGHT. I AM TERRIFIED OF MY VEHICLE. I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW BECAUSE I NEEDED A SAFE, RELIABLE VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN ANYTHING BUT. IT CURRENTLY HAS JUST OVER 10,000 MILES. I HAVE PHOTOGRAPHIC PROOF OF THE TIMES IT HAS WENT HAYWIRE.
