Power trainApr 29, 2025
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Jeep Cherokee vehicles. The power transfer unit (PTU) may become damaged and disengage the transmission and differential, resulting in a loss of drive power and/or loss of park function.
A loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash. A loss of park function can cause an unintended vehicle rollaway, which can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Dealers will update the drivetrain control module and PTU software and replace the PTU, as necessary free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed beginning February 19, 2026. Owners may contact FCA customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA's number for this recall is 01C.

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Jeep Cherokee vehicles. The power transfer unit (PTU) may become damaged and disengage the transmission and differential, resulting in a loss of drive power or loss of park function.
A loss of drive power can increase the risk of a crash. A loss of park function can cause an unintended vehicle rollaway which can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
FCA US LLC will notify owners, and dealers will perform a software update, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 11, 2023. Owners may contact FCA USA LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA's number for this recall is 45A. This recall expands previous recall number 20V-343.

Power train, driveline, differential unitJun 11, 2020
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2017 Jeep Cherokee vehicles equipped with a two-speed Power Transfer Unit (PTU). Relative movement in the Power Transfer Unit (PTU) between the differential input splines and the transmission output shaft may cause some input spline teeth to wear off, which may eventually cause a loss of engagement between the transmission and the differential inside the PTU. If this occurs, power cannot be transferred between the front wheels and the transmission which results in a loss of drive while the vehicle is in motion and a loss of the Park function while stationary.
A loss of drive can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning. A loss of the Park function can cause unintended vehicle rollaway which can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
FCA US LLC will notify owners, and dealers will perform a software update that will maintain vehicle propulsion by engaging rear wheel drive and prevent rolling in Park by activating the electronic parking brake if a failed input spline occurs. This recall began July 14, 2020. Owners may contact FCA USA LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA's number for this recall is W47.

Electrical system, wiringMay 17, 2018
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2014-2018 Dodge Journey, Charger and Durango, RAM 2500, 3500, 3500 Cab Chassis (more than 10,000lb), 4500 Cab Chassis and 5500 Cab Chassis, Jeep Cherokee and Grand Cherokee and Chrysler 300, 2014-2019 RAM 1500, 2015-2018 Dodge Challenger, 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, 2016-2018 RAM 3500 Cab Chassis (less than 10,000 lb), 2017-2018 Chrysler Pacifica and 2018 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. These vehicles are being recalled to address a defect that could prevent the cruise control system from disengaging. If, when using cruise control, there is a short circuit within the vehicle's wiring, the driver may not be able to shut off the cruise control either by depressing the brake pedal or manually turning the system off once it has been engaged, resulting in either the vehicle maintaining its current speed or possibly accelerating.
If the vehicle maintains its speed or accelerates despite attempts to deactivate the cruise control, there would be an increased risk of a crash.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the software, and perform a software flash on the engine or powertrain control module, free of charge. The recall began June 4, 2018. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Note: Owners are advised to stop using cruise control until the software update has been performed. In the event that cruise control cannot be disengaged while driving, owners should firmly and steadily apply the brakes and shift the transmission to neutral, placing the vehicle in park once it has stopped.

THE CRUISE CONTROL BUTTON NOR PRESSING THE BRAKES WOULD DISENGAGE THE SYSTEM. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 10 SECONDS, THE CAR ACCELERATED TO 75 MPH AND FINALLY DISENGAGED. THIS WAS DURING THE NIGHT, WITH MODERATE RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ON HIGHWAY 16 NEAR PORT ORCHARD, WA.

CRUSIE CONTROL DOES NOT MAINTAIN SET SPEED LEVEL. WHEN SPEED IS SET, THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL RAPIDLY INCREASE BY 10 TO 15 MPH. THE SPEED SET POINT DID NOT CHANGE, BUT THE CAR INCREASES IN SPEED. IT DID NOT RETURN TO THE SET POINT. THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ABLE TO BE DISENGAGED.
Vehicle speed control, Sep 4, 2019
WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL, IT THE RPMS WILL JUMP FROM BETWEEN 1 -2 TO 5 VERY QUICKLY AND THE SPEED WILL INCREASE FROM 65 MPH TO 75MPH FOR NO REASON. THIS OCCURS WHETHER I AM DRIVING ON A STRAIGHTAWAY, UP A HILL, OR DOWN HILL. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY. IT OCCURS RANDOMLY AND IS VERY SCARY.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Aug 29, 2019
SEVERAL TIMES WITHIN THE PAST 2 MONTHS, INCLUDING TODAY; WHEN DRIVING MORE THAN 25-35 MILES THERE WILL BE A "SERVICE SHIFTER" NOTIFICATION AND THE ASSOCIATED 'DING' NOISE NOTIFICATION THAT COMES ON. THIS NOTIFICATION BLOCKS ANY ACTION ON THE SCREEN BETWEEN THE SPEEDOMETER AND RPM MONITOR AND ONLY SUCCESSFULLY GOES AWAY WHEN TURNING THE JEEP COMPLETELY OFF. THIS HAPPENS WHILE IN MOTION, PARTICULARLY ON HIGHWAYS, AND SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN IF I HAVE USED OR AM USING CRUISE CONTROL ON THE TRIP. IT ALSO ILLUMINATES ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER (PNRD +/-). IT SEEMS THAT THIS COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A MORE SERIOUS ISSUE WITH SHIFTING, CAUSE ME TO BECOME STRANDED, OR BECOME DANGEROUS FOR MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS.
Vehicle speed control, Jul 25, 2019
I DEACTIVATED CRUISE CONTROL AND STARTED TO ACCELERATE TO PASS SOMEONE ON THE HIGHWAY, THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AFTER I HAD RELEASED THE GAS PEDAL AND SO I PRESSED THE CANCEL CRUISE CONTROL MULTIPLE TIMES AND TAPPED ON THE GAS AND THEN THE BRAKE AFTER THAT MY CAR JERKED AND IT STOPPED ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN.

THE SHIFTER HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE ON THE VEHICLE; THE FIRST TIME IN WARRANTY (2018) AND THE SECOND TIME THIS WEEKEND WHERE I NEEDED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. (JUNE 2019) AT RANDOM TIMES, THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARS AND THE ENTIRE SHIFTIER PANEL LIGHTS UP. THE CAR ACCELERATES BY ITSELF AND SOMETIMES THE CAR JERKS FORWARD ESPECIALLY WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK OR I AM ON THE BRAKES.IN RUSH HOUR HIGHWAY TRAFFIC, BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC OR LOCAL TRAFFIC SAME THING. I CAN BE DOING 20 MPH OR 75 MPH AND THE ERROR MESSAGE APPEARS. I REPORTED THIS TO MY RICK HENDRICKS JEEP DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY SEEN IT BEFORE AS WELL AS NAPLETON IN FLORIDA. I ALSO LOOKED ONLINE AND SEE THAT MULTIPLE 2016 -2018 JEEP OWNERS REPORTED THE SAME ISSUE ONCE THE CAR IS MORE THAN 10,000 MILES. THE CAR CHANGES GEAR BY ITSELF.
Vehicle speed control, Jul 10, 2019
THE SPEED CONTROL IN MY CAR WENT WACKO A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. SPED UP FROM 45MPH TO 56MPH. IN THE SHORT SPACE OF TIME IT TOOK FOR THIS TO HAPPEN (1-2 SECONDS, NOT SURE AS I WAS FREAKING OUT...), I APPLIED THE BRAKE - TOO NO AVAIL, THEN I PUT IT INTO NEUTRAL AND THAT WORKED; WHICH WAS GOOD BECAUSE I ALMOST PLOWED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME (ON A NARROW SINGLE LANE ROAD ON A HILL GOING DOWNHILL SO, THERE WAS NO OPTION TO BAIL OUT, IF THERE HAD BEEN TIME TO DO THAT - WHICH THERE WAS NOT. I HAVE HAD IT IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR 12 DAYS NOW AND THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIX IT. *DT *DT*JB

MY 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE WITH LITTLE UNDER 45,000 STALLED THIS MORNING ON MY WAY TO WORK. THE CAR LOST STEERING/BRAKING CONTROL. THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND STATED I NEEDED TO SHIFT TO PARK THEN TO DESIRED GEAR. MY JEEP WOULD NOT RUN AT THIS POINT. I HAD TO WAIT A GOOD 5 MINUTES UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO ATTEMPT STARTING MY VEHICLE. HOWEVER, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE IT DID NOT START ON THE FIRST 2 TRIES. THE 3RD TIME IT FINALLY STARTED. FURTHERMORE, AFTER LETTING MY VEHICLE SIT AND COOL ONCE I GOT TO MY WORK LOCATION WHICH IS 40 MILES AWAY. I AND ANOTHER CO WORKER CHECKED THE OIL, AND THE OIL BARELY REGISTERED ON THE DIPSTICK. I WILL BE GOING TO GET THE OIL CHANGED AGAIN SINCE THE OIL WAS DARK AND SMELLED BURNT. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I'VE HAD ISSUED WITH THE JEEP CHEROKEE. THE OTHER INSTANCE ALL THE SHIFTING GEARS ON THE CONSOLE LITE UP AND A MESSAGE ON THE DASH STATED TO SHIFT INTO THE DESIRED GEAR. THIS TOO HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. THIS IS UNSAFE, ESPECIALLY IN THE FIRST INSTANCE WHEREAS YOU LOSE ALL CONTROL OF YOUR VEHICLE. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE VEHICLE CHECKED OUT; HOWEVER, THEY ARE UNABLE TO GET MY VEHICLE SERVICED UNTIL 2 WEEKS AFTER THIS OCCURRENCE.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, May 9, 2019
WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND SERVICE SHIFTER CAME ON AND LOCKED OUT THE SHIFTING. AFTER SHUTTING OFF THE VEHICLE AND RESTARTING IT WAS TURNED OFF.

WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN AND ACCELERATED UPHILL. THE CAR DIED AND LOST ALL SYSTEMS INCLUDING STEERING AND LIMITED BRAKING. I TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER AND FOUND OUT THIS WAS DUE TO LOW OIL. THIS HAPPENED TWICE WITHIN 4 MONTHS. NO OIL INDICATOR EVER APPEARED IN EITHER INSTANCE. SAID IT WAS A SAFETY FEATURE TO SAVE ENGINE BUT APPARENTLY NOT HUMAN LIVES. IT AS SCARY..I DO NOT TRUST THIS VEHICLE AND WHY IS IT CONSUMING SO MUCH OIL.
