2019 Jeep Cherokee

THE STARTER WENT BAD AROUND 40,000 MILES. SOMETIMES IT STARTS OTHER TIMES IT TAKES HOURS TO START. I ALWAYS GET A NOTIFACTION THAT SAYS STARTER PROTECTION MODE ENGIN WARMING AFTER A FEW FAILED START ATTEMPTS. THE CAR STALLS OUT OFTEN. ANY TURNS SHUT THE CAR OFF. OIL MUST BE ADDED TWICE A MONTH TO FIX THE STALL ISSUE. HALF THE TIME IT SAYS 4 WHEEL DRIVE AND CRUISE CONTROL UNAVAILABLE. THIS JEEP IS A LEMON. A DISASTROUS PURCHASE. SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THE STARTERS AS MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. 2 YEAR OLD CAR COSTING ME 900 TO FIX STARTER IS A JOKE.

TL* THE CONTACT LEASED A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL CLICKING NOISE DETECTED. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE STOPPED OR ACCELERATING, THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO RESPOND AND IS ONGOING. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TWICE TO RON LEWIS AUTOMOTIVE GROUP (600 CLAIRTON BLVD, PITTSBURGH, PA 15236, (412) 655-7500) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THE VEHICLE WORKED AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,500.*DT*JB

THE JEEP STARTED STALLING WHEN IN MOTION/ DRIVING ABOUT A MONTH AGO, IT USUALLY HAPPENED WHEN BRAKING TO STOP AND THE JEEP WILL NOT TURN BACK ON. IT TAKES ABOUT THREE TIMES TO TURN OVER AND START BACK UP. YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSIER ROAD THE JEEP STARTED THROWING ERRORS STAYING SYSTEMS WERE NOT WORKING, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN WHEN I TRIED TO DRIVE IT THROUGH THE STOP LIGHT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OR ACCELERATE. I GOT IT PULLED OVER IN A GAS STATION PARKING LOT AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN OVER THE FIRST COUPLE OF TIMES AND THEN IT FINALLY DID. NOT WHEN I TRY TO REMOTE START THE VEHICLE IT WILL NOT STAY RUNNING. EVERY TIME I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND I AM LUCKY I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AS NOTHING WORKS NOT EVEN MY HAZARD LIGHTS. I FEEL THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ANYMORE. WHEN THE ELECTRIC ISSUE HAPPENED YESTERDAY THERE WAS A RED FLASHING LIGHTENING BOLT ON THE DASH AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WAS ALSO FLASHING WHEN IT WAS TELLING ME CERTAIN SYSTEMS WERE NOT WOKING. I TRIED TO GET A PICTURE BUT IT DID NOT TAKE. I AM CURRENT IN CANADA AT COLLEGE AND WITH THE BORDERS BEING CLOSED I CAN NOT JUST DRIVE TO NY TO GET IT LOOKED AT. I TRIED TO CALL A JEEP DEALER HERE BUT NOW ONE WILL RETURN MY CALLS

WHOLE STATIONARY, THE JEEP HAS ACTED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO START 4 SEPARATE TIMES, THE CLIMATE CHANGES ITSELF TO GO THE THE FRONT VENT ON HIGH HEAT EVERY TIME THE CAR IS TURNED ON REGARDLESS OF SETTING BEFORE TURNING OFF, AND RADIO TURNS ON AND OFF ON ITS OWN. THE AUX PORT ON THE CONSOLE WILL WORK ONE DAY AND NOT THE NEXT. WHILE DRIVING, THE CRUISE CONTROL HAS STOPPED WORKING TWICE. ALL THIS HAPPENED IN A SPAN OF TWO WEEKS.

FROM THE THAT I DROVE IT OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP I NOTICED THAT APPLYING THE GAS DID NOT GET ME THE INSTANT NEEDED POWER TO GET THIS 6-CYLINDER CAR MOVING. IN NOVEMBER THIS CAR WITH LESS THAT 300 MILES WAS BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP WHEN IT ALSO DEVELOPED A SURGE IN POWER AND A FLUCTUATING ENGINE REVVING... IT SPENT A MONTH AT THE DEALERSHIP BEFORE THEY COULD DETERMINE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. THAT PROBLEM MAY HAVE BEEN SOLVED BUT THE ACCELERATION IS STILL A CONCERN OF OURS WHICH WE NEED TO LIVE WITH FOR ANOTHER 2-YEARS WHICH IS THE REMAINDER OF OUR LEASE. *TR

THERE JEEP HAS DIFFERENT ACCELERATION THAT ARE UNSAFE. WITH REGULAR DRIVING YOU CAN GIVE IT GAS AND IT'S SLOW GOING THEN SOME TIMES IT WILL JUMP PICKING UP SPEED FAST. THIS HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUSH THE ACCELERATOR DOWN THE SANE WITH EITHER WAY IT SPEED UP. MY CONCERN IS IF IM BEHIND SOMEONE AT A LIGHT AND I GO TO TAKE OFF IT MIGHT DO THE THING WHERE IT PICKS UP SPEED FAST AND I RUN IN BACK OF SOMEONE. THIS ISN'T SAFE AT ALL. *TR

I HAVE REPORTED PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND REVVING UP WHILE DRIVING TODAY. BUT I GOT IN MY JEEP WENT DOWN THERE ROAD TO A STOP SIGN. THEN PRECEDED TO DRIVE AND THE JEEP JUST ROARED AND DID NOT ACCELERATE, I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD THEN HERE COMES TRAFFIC CLOSER. THE TRANSMISSION IS A PROBLEM. THERE IS NO FIXING, EVERY JEEP SHIP I GO TO, THEY DON'T FINE NOTHING. *TR

MY 16 MONTH OLD JEEP TURNS OFF WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING IT. THIS HAS OCCURRED TWICE IN THE PRIOR TWO WEEKS. NO WARNING LIGHTS--THE CAR JUST TURNS OFF COMPLETELY. I HAVE BEEN ADVISED THIS IS DUE TO A DROP IN OIL PRESSURE, BUT THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON. THE CAR HAS BEEN MAINTAINED ACCORDING TO THE GUIDELINES WITHIN THE MANUAL WHICH STATES TO CHANGE THE OIL WHEN THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THAT IT SHOULD NEVER GO BEYOND 10,000 MILES BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. WHEN THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR THE ISSUE WE WERE ADVISED THAT THE REALITY IS THAT THE OIL NEEDS CHANGED EVERY 4,000 MILES AND THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THAT MORE FREQUENT OIL CHANGES REDUCES THE LIKELIHOOD OF THIS OCCURRING. MY 16 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED AND THE SECOND TIME IT WAS ON A 45 MILE AN HOUR ROAD. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND YET CHRYSLER/JEEP DOES NOTHING TO RESOLVE IT.

TL* THE CONTACT LEASED A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT PRIOR TO THE FAILURE THE KEY FOB WAS LOCKED INSIDE THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS OPENED SHE STARTED THE VEHICLE AND SHIFTED TO REVERSE. THE REVERSE ALERT AUDIO CHIMED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER THE VEHICLE INADVERTENTLY ACCELERATED IN REVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MYRTLE BEACH JEEP CHRYSLER (785 JASON BLVD, MYRTLE BEACH, SC 29577 843-448-1191) WERE THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR DUPLICATED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT WHEN APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED THE VEHICLE WOULD LURCH FORWARD AS WELL AS WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS RELEASED AN ABNORMAL GRINDING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE AS THE CONTACT NO LONGER OWNS THE VEHICLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,070.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ONE NIGHT AND ALL THE DASH LIGHTS COME ON AND THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO ATTEMPT TO PULL OVER AND SWITCH THE KEY OFF AND BACK ON TO RESTART THE ENGINE. I ALSO HAVE BEEN AT A STOP MULTIPLE TIMES AND TURN OUT INTO THE ROAD AND MY VEHICLE WON'T GO, WHICH COULD RESULT IN ME GETTING HIT. I ALSO HAD MY RECALL 'FIXED' FOR THE POWER TRAIN, WENT BACK BECAUSE I RECEIVED ANOTHER LETTER SAYING IT WAS POSSIBLY NOT FIXED AND IT STILL TELLS ME THE PROBLEM WAS NOT FIXED ON MY VEHICLE. I CANNOT USE CRUISE CONTROL ON MY VEHICLE BECAUSE WHEN IT GOES DOWN THE SLIGHTEST HILL, CURVE, WHATEVER, THE RPMS GO ALL THE WAY UP AND JUST SIT THERE, EVEN WHEN I HAVE TURNED OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL AND BRAKED IT STILL STAYS SHIFTED UP FOR A LONG TIME. I REGRET PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY WITH A BABY ON THE WAY ANY DAY NOW AND HER SAFETY BEING AT RISK. WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF FINDING ANOTHER VEHICLE.
