WE BOUGHT A 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND USE THIS VEHICLE TO TOW BEHIND OUR MOTOR HOME FROM THAT TIME UNTIL THE PRESENT. THIS REQUIRES THAT THE TRANSFER CASE BE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL BEFORE TOWING. WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH THIS SHIFTING PROCEDURE FOR ALL OF THE YEARS THAT WE HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE (MILEAGE 67000) UNTIL WE HAD A SAFETY RECALL FROM CHRYSLER (N23/NHTSA 13V-175 REPROGRAM FINAL DRIVE CONTROLLER MODULE) PREFORMED ON AUGUST 23, 2013 BY OUR DEALER, THE FIRST TIME WE ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL AFTER THE RECALL REPAIR WAS ON SEPTEMBER 12, 2013. THE NEUTRAL SHIFT PROCEDURE WOULD NOT WORK SINCE THIS HAPPEN RIGHT AFTER THE RECALL SERVICE WORK, THE SERVICE MANAGER DECIDED TO RESET AND REPROGRAMMED THE FDCM AND IT WORKED. NO REPAIR PARTS NECESSARY. THE SHIFTER WORKED NORMALLY FOR THREE MORE TIMES. ON NOVEMBER 5, 2013 WHILE ON A TRIP THE SAME SHIFTING FAILURE OCCURRED. TH THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSFER CASE SHIFT MOTOR. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY REPROGRAMMED OR RESET THE FDCM. TOTAL EXPENSE TO US WAS $790.00 FOR THE REPAIR. IT WORKED TWO MORE TIMES. ON NOVEMBER 18, 2013 THE SHIFTER ONCE AGAIN FAILED. THE ERROR CODE ONCE AGAIN INDICATED THAT THE SHIFT MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, THE SAME ONE THAT WAS REPLACED. SINCE THAT PART HAD JUST BEEN REPLACED THE DEALER DID ANOTHER COMPUTER REPROGRAM AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. THE CHARGE FOR THIS PROCEDURE WAS $ 47.40. I HAVE CALLED THE CHRYSLER GROUP RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER, EVERY TIME THE SHIFTER FAILED AND EVERY TIME THEY STATE THAT IT COULDN'T BE AN ISSUE WITH THE RECALL SINCE IT WAS ONLY A SOFTWARE CHANGE TO CORRECT A NEURAL SHIFTING PROBLEM. HOW COULD THAT CAUSE A PROBLEM SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL? I BELIEVE CHRYSLER OWES ALL OWNERS WITH THIS RECALL PROBLEM A REAL FIX AND REIMBURSEMENT FOR ALL EXPENSES DUE TO THIS FAULTY RECALL. *TR

I WAS PULLING INTO A SPACE TO PARK, WAS COASTING INTO SPOT DID NOT HAVE MY FOOT ON THE GAS. MY CAR MADE A LOUD NOISE AND SHOT FORWARD -UP OVER A CURB AND THROUGH A WOODED AREA UNTIL I HIT A TRAILER. PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING MY GAUGES IN MY CAR WERE ALL FLICKING ON AND OFF ON MY DASHBOARD. I REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND HAD THE BODY WORK DONE. THE INSURANCE COMPANY WILL NOT COVER THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT ONLY THE ACCIDENT ITSELF. MY INSURANCE COMPANY SENT ONE OF THEIR APPRAISERS OVER TO THE BODY SHOP AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND HAD THE WORK DONE AND WAS TOLD THAT THE SAME INCIDENT HAPPENED TO ONE OF THE GUYS THAT WORKED AT THE BODY SHOP WHILE HE WAS PULLING MY CAR BACK INTO ONE OF THEIR GARAGES. I AM SUPPOSED TO PICK UP MY CAR BECAUSE THE BODY WORK IS COMPLETE BUT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN AND FEEL THAT THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. I PURCHASED MY CAR FROM THIS DEALERSHIP 3 YEARS AGO, IT WAS USED WHEN I BOUGHT IT. DO I HAVE ANY RIGHTS AS FAR AS HAVING THEM TEST AND REPAIR THE CAR AT THEIR EXPENSE? *TR

I WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW ABOUT A POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE. I OWN A 2005 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED AND THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE TRANSFER CASE WENT OUT WHILE WE WERE CAMPING IN MYRTLE BEACH. IT COULD BE DRIVEN SO I DROVE TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP THERE AND THEY SAID IT THE TRANSFER CASE AND IT WAS ON MAJOR BACK ORDER AND THEY COULDN'T GIVE ME AN IDEA OF WHEN IT WOULD BE DONE. WHEN WE ARRIVED HOME IN MANNING, SC, I BROUGHT THE JEEP TO STOKES-CRAVEN JEEP IN MANNING. THEY TOLD ME THERE ARE MORE THAN 550 TRANSFER CASES ON BACK ORDER AND THEY WERE NOT SURE WHEN THEY WOULD ARRIVE. AFTER THEY LOOKED AT THE PART, IT WAS MAKING A LOT OF NOISE SO IT COULDN'T BE DRIVEN. I ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER IF THIS WAS A RECALL ITEM SINCE THERE WERE SO MANY ON BACK ORDER AND HE SAID THERE WASN'T AT THAT TIME. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND ASKED THE QUESTION ABOUT RECALL AND ONLY GOT AN ANSWER ABOUT THE PART, WHICH THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHEN IT WOULD BE AVAILABLE. COULD YOU CHECK TO SEE IF THIS SHOULD BE AN ITEM THAT SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO RECALL? PERHAPS YOU CAN GET SOME STRAIGHT ANSWERS. I KNOW THERE WAS A RECALL REGARDING THE TRANSFER CASE IN MAY THAT REQUIRED A SOFTWARE UPDATE AND THAT UPDATE WAS DONE. THANKS *TR

This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, drivers should adjust their seat to allow clearance between the driver's knee and the ignition key, and remove all items from their key ring, leaving only the vehicle key. Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2005-2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured February 11, 2004, to July 5, 2007, and 2006-2007 Jeep Commander vehicles manufactured January 31, 2005, to July 5, 2007. In the affected vehicles, the driver may accidentally hit the ignition key with their knee, unintentionally knocking the key out of the run position, turning off the engine.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the ignition key inadvertently moves into the OFF or ACCESSORY position, the engine will turn off, which will then depower various key safety systems including but not limited to air bags, power steering, and power braking. Loss of functionality of these systems may increase the risk of crash and/or increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition switch, free of charge. Chrysler sent interim notifications to owners in September 2014. The recall began on October 9, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P41.
Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured February 11, 2004, through March 9, 2010; and 2006-2010 Jeep Commander vehicles manufactured January 31, 2005, through March 10, 2010. A transfer case electrical failure may result in an unintentional shifting of the transfer case into the neutral position.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the vehicle shifts into neutral, it may roll away increasing the risk of a crash or personal injury.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the final drive controller which governs the transfer case, with new software, free of charge. The recall began on August 15, 2013. Owners may contact Chrysler at 1-800-247-9753. Chrysler's recall campaign number is N23.

ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 3.7L ENGINES AND NAG1 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS, THE AIR CONDITIONER EVAPORATOR CONDENSATE WATER MAY ENTER THE TRANSMISSION AT THE FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL. THIS CAN RESULT IN SHUDDER DURING TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH ENGAGEMENT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IT CAN LEAD TO INCREASED TRANSMISSION OPERATING TEMPERATURES, BOILING OF THE WATER, AND A SUBSEQUENT PURGING OF TRANSMISSION FLUID INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN AN UNDERHOOD FIRE.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE TRANSMISSION FOR LEAKAGE AT THE FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL. IF NO LEAK IS DETECTED, A NEW FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL AND WATER DEFLECTOR SHIELD WILL BE INSTALLED, AND PROPER ALIGNMENT OF THE FILL TUBE VERIFIED. IF THE PRESENCE OF A LEAK IS DETECTED, THE VEHICLE WILL BE EVALUATED FOR SHUDDER DURING TORQUE CONVERTER ENGAGEMENT. IF NO SHUDDER IS DETECTED, THE TRANSMISSION WILL BE TRIPLE FLUSHED, AND NEW FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL AND WATER DEFLECTOR WILL BE INSTALLED AND PROPER ALIGNMENT OF THE FILL TUBE VERIFIED. IF SHUDDER IS DETECTED, THE TORQUE CONVERTER WILL BE REPLACED, A NEW FILL TUBE GROMMET SEAL AND WATER DEFLECTOR WILL BE INSTALLED, AND PROPER ALIGNMENT OF THE FILL TUBE VERIFIED. THE RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 31, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT DAIMLERCHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.
