UNKNOWN The radio fades in and out. Happens only some of the time but if it is going to happen it happens right away or it doesn't happen at all. It sounds to me like the wiring is faulty. I checked the uconnect website and it says my software is up to date. I have seen this same complaint all over the internet. My sister-in-law has the exact same problem. Jeep refuses to take responsibility or really figured out the issue so that it can be fixed. There has to be something they can do. It is maddening and really sounds like it could be something applied to the lemon law.

The start/stop function frequently failed and the car struggled to start up. Took it to the dealership and they said it just needed a software update. The software update did not fix the issue and my car failed to turn back on at a traffic light once it turned green. I did some research on the issue and found MANY other 2019 cherokee owners have had the same issue and those people all said there was a dead spot on the starter. Took my car back to the dealership's service department and was told I needed a new starter. It's a just barely 2 year old vehicle. It should not need a new starter already. And the issue started in 2020 but got significantly worse this year. It puts people's safety at risk. Some have even said the start/stop feature shut the car off mid turn. I'm in a rental car right now until the car is fixed.

Going from park to reverse the vehicle Reverse starts flashing and driving forward. This happened to me in January 2021 and March 2021. During parallel parking the breaks also decide to turn on. Driving slow in a parking lot the engine has turned itself off. It has done this indefinitely while Driving where the engine light turns on. Shifting from drive to park has also caused the vehicle to reverse. Shifting from park to drive has caused the D to blink and start reversing. The car is hard in steering at times and the radio and Ac have random turned themselves on while I’m driving without me doing it. Since the computer is recalled I do believe these issues mean the vehicle has a transmission issue. It cannot calibrate what gear it’s in properly.

There is a stall when driving. A lot of the time when you stop and go it stalls for a second before it goes. It also happens when I am driving. If I am pressing on the gas it will stall as well. It has almost caused me to have an accident when it does the stall.
