My vehicle wasn’t reading my key fob when I was pressing the lock and unlock button, so I took out the hard key and unlock the doors. Then the alarm set off and I was using the key fob again trying to shut the alarm off no response so I took the key fob and press the start stop button and the engine turn over and the key was working again then I went to shut off the engine same way. The engine would not shut off my driver seat wouldn’t move so I couldn’t get to the battery and I paid a lock smith to come out and he couldn’t even help me with my key fob not syncing with the vehicle..my ebreak would not release or the emergency override break wasn’t working. On the digital dash it’s kept saying shift to park to release parking break but the vehicle was in park all while doing so. This all happened around 7pm. So I could not get help until the morning cs the vehicle would not move

The Uconnect infotainment system is glitchy, blacks out, and has restarted itself. The dealership I purchased it from has currently had now for a 3rd time and over 30 days. The 2nd visit the screen was replaced and the same issues still exist. This is a huge safety concern, because the system has malfunctioned while in reverse which obstructs the rearview camera view. I can’t trust that rear sensors aren’t tied into this and will apply the brakes if I get too close to something or someone/something suddenly goes behind me in reverse. The blind spot monitoring system has gone out a few times and this limits the lane keep assist functions. The dealership has said they can’t replicate the issue and the first time this happened no codes came up despite there being a stored message on digital cluster display. They have replaced a sensor module this time, but as they still have the vehicle I don’t know if this has fixed the problem or not. This is obviously a huge safety issue as it could case a wreck if someone is in a blind spot and I can’t see them and the vehicle can’t help alert me to this. It also seemed to slightly impact the handling of the vehicle as well causing me to consistently need to make micro adjustments of the steering while driving. Among those issues I have been having other commonly known issues with vehicle such as the “key fob has left vehicle” message despite the key fob still being inside the vehicle. It does not matter which key fob is used and the battery to the fob is good. The dealership can’t four that out either and have checked to make sure the serial numbers on the fobs match the VIN. The fan speed pop-up when shutting off the vehicle displaying 127 front/0 rear can’t be figured out either and dealership verified it has the most updated software versions currently available. A lot of these issues have been there since I purchased it 12/2025 or showed up within 1-2 months of owning it. Finally took it to the dealership in March.

2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Limited - Mileage 8,855 - Owned for 6 months!!! - 11/22/2025 System failure with the Forward Collision Warning (FCW) & Active Braking (AB). Available for inspection upon request until vehicle buyback is complete. - At the point of failure the brakes locked up while traveling through a busy intersection bringing the vehicle to a complete stop and resulting in total engine power loss. The jeep was disabled for approximately 10-15 minutes before being able to start and move it clear of traffic. The abrupt braking could have caused a rear-end collision had someone been close behind us which also could have caused numerous vehicles to be involved. We turned off the FCW & AB system through the setting on the vehicle infotainment screen. - 11/26/2025 The dealership where we purchased the vehicle, confirmed numerous transmission codes and found metal shaving in the transmission fluid through a fluid test. Chrysler advised them to perform a "relearn" on the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and required us to drive it 500 miles to complete the "drive relearn" putting our safety at risk should this not be effective. On 11/27/2025 after turning the FCW & AB system back on, within 2 miles of performing the "drive relearn" the check engine light came back on and noise from the transmission was prominent. The vehicle went into limp mode not allowing acceleration past 10-15mph. On 12/1/2025 The Jeep was taken back to the dealership where they scanned and found code P0729 for gear error in 6th gear. They found the transmission internally failing. For 68 days Chrysler requested numerous testing from the dealership until finally agreeing to the warranty for a new transmission. Work completed 1/29/2026. - The vehicle has only been inspected by the dealerships mechanic who also performed the transmission swap. - There was no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure.

I was leaving a light and turning left onto incoming traffic Columbia and John young parkway. Vehicle turned off with no option of turning back on . I rolled onto the right curb but was sticking my vehicle out. Me and my wife and teenage son. Feared for our life due to the car not turning on and incoming traffic . This is a serious issue and hazard. The car asked me to put the car in park. After I did that the car would not turn on. Called SOS and Assist. We had Roadside coming 45 min later.There was a high pitched sound coming from the engine compartment . The car would not turn off at all. The Push Start Button would not turn the vehicle off or on. The Round buttons for D/N would not turn at all. The Tow truck driver use a red pull handle and put the transmission in neutral. It’s a release that was on the driver side pillar of the vehicle. After we arrived to Napleton Jeep the car immediately turned on. Our biggest safety concern is that this would’ve happened on a highway and my wife would not know how to react resulting in an accident or fatality. This is an issue that never in our 30 Years of experience we had with any of our vehicle brands. I wish the National Highway Safety Administration take measures to Jeep and investigate this matter. Thank you for your time

I purchased my 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee, new, approximately one month ago on [XXX] at Victory CDJR in Merrillville, IN 46410. Since purchase, the vehicle has been returned to the dealership three times for the same issue, and I am now scheduled for a fourth repair attempt. This fourth repair appointment was scheduled on the same day of the 3rd attempt hours after I picked it up because the problem wasn't resolved. The problem is that both key fobs randomly stop working, preventing reliable access to and operation of the vehicle. The failure is intermittent and unpredictable, which makes it especially concerning. Despite multiple service visits on November 26th, 2025, December 3rd, 2025, and December 31st, 2025, the issue has not been resolved and I now have to return the fourth time on January, 2nd, 2026. The dealership is never able to recreate the issue when they have the vehicle in their possession, but I have taken video of both key fobs not working and have tried to show them when I take the car in and they don't seem very interested in seeing the videos. There are no warnings to signal me of when the fobs will stop working because it is random. The first time this issue occurred was 2 days after I purchased the car on [XXX].

The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Emergency Braking does not function, and we believe it has never function properly since we purchased the vehicle NEW on 8/22/25. The vehicle has been to the local Jeep dealer on numerous occasions to have the issue corrected, but to date, they are unable to determine a root cause or affect a repair. On the last repair visit, they conducted a road test with their employee driving and the service and myself in the car. They could not get the FCW to function either, despite a call to the Jeep remote assistance line and a reboot of the main control panel. The service manager indicated that he would reach out to their factory technical representative for assistance. They called me a few days later and asked my to bring the vehicle in again. It has now been at the dealer for an additional three days, with no apparent progress made. On a prior service visit, they indicated that they needed to open a " STAR record because they weren't seeing any error codes. I have no idea if either the STAR record or contact with the factory representative actually occurred. At this point, we don't feel safe driving the vehicle with our grandkids in it. In addition, these safety features, and the Jeep safety ratings, were a big factor in our decison to buy the Grand Cherokee. We can't help but feel that this is a known defect in the 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve, and that Stellantis/Jeep and their dealer are either unwilling or unable to correct the serious safety issue this has created.

I took it to the dealer and they replaced the hatch but the buttons in the vehicle still didn't work and found it was the connector pins were not connecting.
