2019 Jeep Cherokee

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE AT A STOP, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING AND CAUSED A FRONT END COLLISION. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUFFERED INJURIES AND RECEIVED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN BACK TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

THE CAR WILL STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF ROAD WITH NO WARNING. IT HAPPENS MOST OFTEN WHEN GOING UP A SLIGHT HILL AND MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN. DEALER SAYS IT IS LOW ON OIL PRESSURE(THE CAR IS 5 MONTHS OLD AND THEY SAY IT WAS 2.5 QUARTS LOW ON OIL!!) AND A SAFETY SWITCH SHUTS DOWN THE ENGINE IN THE MIDDLE OF ROAD/TRAFFIC!! I CALL THIS "SAFETY FEATURE" TO PROTECT THE ENGINE A"DANGER SWITCH" THAT ENDANGERS TRAFFIC. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE FOR ALL TRAFFIC BECAUSE THESE JEEPS ARE STALLING IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I HAVE A 45 SECOND VIDEO THAT SHOWS THE STALL. PLEASE HELP GET THIS PROBLEM SOLVED!! *DT*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS MAKING TURNS OR IDLING AT STOP SIGNS, IT LOST POWER AND STALLED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL KNOCKING NOISE EMERGING FROM THE ENGINE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO 1-5 CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (1560 NW STATE AVE, CHEHALIS, WA 98532, (360) 748-1717) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED VIA CERTIFIED MAIL, BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,131.

BRAND NEW JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE PLUS 4X4 V6 9 SPEED,3,100 MILES. THE CHEROKEE HAS A GRINDING NOISE GOING OVER SPEED BUMPS IN THE BACK OF THE CAR. SOUNDS LIKE GEARS AREN'T MESHING PROPERLY. I HAVE TO TURN OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL EVERY TIME I GO OVER A SPEED BUMP TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. RPMS GET SUPER HIGH BEFORE THE JEEP DECIDES TO CHANGE GEARS AND KICK UP. THE OTHER ISSUE IS THE CAR LURCHES FORWARD WHEN I BRAKE COMING TO A STOP. NOT ALWAYS BUT ENOUGH TO MAKE ME WEARY IN PARKING LOTS. MOSTLY DRIVE IN THE CITY.

MY CAR SHUT DOWN TWICE WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY. THERE WAS PLENTY OF GAS AND NO REASON FOR IT TO SHUT DOWN. ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS FLASHED AND THEN THERE WAS NO ABILITY TO STEER OR CONTROL THE CAR. I HAD BREAK, SWITCH THE GEARS FROM DRIVE TO PARK AND THEN RESTART THE CAR. LUCKILY TRAFFIC WAS SLOWED OR ELSE MY CHILD AND I WOULD'VE BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE OIL WAS LOW AND IT COULD BE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. THAT COULD HAVE LEAD TO THE STALLING. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS INVOLVED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING 64 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, THE RPMS INCREASED TO 5,000 AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO 89 MPH. WHEN THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE DID NOT DECELERATE. ONCE THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS DEACTIVATED, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 2,000.

WAS AT A 4 WAY STOP SIGN GETTING READY TO PULL OFF WHEN VEHICLE STOP WORKING. TRIED TO RECRANK THE VEHICLE BUT IT TOOK 5 MINUTES TO START AGAIN. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF LATER VEHICLE STARTED HAVING ISSUES AGAIN. VEHICLE STARTED TO STALL AND HAVE A VERY SLOW TAKE OFF. TAKE OFF WAS SO SLOW UNTIL I HAD TO SIT 15 MINUTES BEFORE TAKE OFF.

MY 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE WAS JUST EXITING THE INTERSTATE AND APPROACHED A LIGHT ON THE OFF RAMP. UPON STOPPING AND TRYING TO ACCELERATE MY JEEP BEGAN BEEPING AND THE "DRIVE (D)" STARTED BLINKING ON THE DASH AND GEAR. DURING THIS TIME MY VEHICLE WOULD ROLL BACKWARDS TO THE OFF RAMP UNLESS THE EMERGENCY BREAK WAS ENGAGED. I WAS NOT ABLE TO PRESS THE GAS, SHIFTING INTO OTHER GEARS DID NOT DO ANYTHING AND THE BREAKS WERE LOCKED OUT. I WAS SITTING IN THE BIKE LANE BLOCKING TRAFFIC AND HOPING TO NOT GET HIT. I WAS ABLE TO ROLL DOWNHILL ABOUT 50FT AND STEER ONTO A SIDE STREET. ONCE THERE I AGAIN TRIED TO SHIFT TO DIFFERENT GEARS AND NOTHING SEEMED TO WORK. AS MENTIONED MY BREAKS WERE LOCKED AND THE GAS PEDAL WAS OUT OF SERVICE. FINALLY, AFTER EXITING THE MAJOR INTERSECTION I TRIED TURNING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND IT SEEMED TO CLEAR THE ERROR. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP FOR THIS PROBLEM. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS THOUGH. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED SECONDS BEFORE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATHS COULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED.

MY NEW CAR HAS 2,800 MILES DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE AT 5 MONTHS/5,000 MILES. THE ENGINE FAILED ONCE FOR NO KNOWN CAUSE AFTER 2 WEEKS IN THE REPAIR SHOP. NOW MY CAR DIED WHILE IN MOTION ON BUSY ROADS AND A HIGHWAY RAMP AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 15-40 MPH WITHOUT WARNING OR LIGHTS. THIS IS SLA SAFETY HAZARD AS THE STEERING GOES AND CAR JUST COMES TO A STOP WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I HAD IT TOWED AFTER IT'S 5TH TIME IN 4 DAYS STOPPING WHILE IN MOTION AND SHUTTING DOWN. JEEP TOLD ME IT'S EMPTY ON OIL BUT YET THE OIL LIGHT INDICATOR DOESN'T COME ON. THEY SAID IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITHOUT A FIX FOR ALL 2014-2019 JEEP CHEROKEES. THEY ARE AWARE BUT ARE NOT FIXING OR ADDRESSING THE OIL CONSUMPTION WITHOUT LIGHT ISSUE THAT PUTS DRIVERS IN MOTION AT RISK OF AN ACCIDENT OR LOSING THEIR LIFE. IF NO WARNING IS COMING ON THAT YOUR OIL IS EMPTY LONG BEFORE A DIE OIL CHANGE AND MY CAR CAN JUST DIE WHILE IN MOTION ALONG WITH OTHERS AS AGAIN THEY STATED IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE IS A ROAD HAZARD FOR ANYONE IN THESE CARS. MY CAR IS 3 MONTHS OLD AND I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING IT ON ANY ROADS FOR FEAR I WILL BE HIT BY ANOTHER DRIVER AS IT'S JUST LOSING POWER AND SHUTTING DOWN IN THE STREET IN MOTION. JEEP CANNOT FIX THIS BUT KNOWS ABOUT IT.
