Power train, Vehicle speed control, Jul 11, 2019
NEW CAR, 2 WEEKS OLD WITH 800 MILES WILL NOT HOLD SPEED WITH CRUISE CONTROL WHILE GOING DOWN HILL. IN FACT , THE CAR ACTUALLY ACCELERATES WITH ENGINE. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS. DEALERS AND FACTORY SAYS "IT IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF ALL 9 SPEED TRANSMISSIONS". IT IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. IN ANOTHER TRANSMISSION RELATED ISSUES, THE CAR MAKES A LOUD CLUNK WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 30-50 MPH ON A FLAT ROAD WHEN LIGHTLY PUTTING FOOT ON ACCELERATOR. IT IS SO LOUD AND HARD YOU CAN HEAR AND FEEL IT OVER THE RADIO. AGAIN WE ARE TOLD THIS "IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE 9 SPEED TRANSMISSIONS"! UNACCEPTABLE! A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT NEEDS TO FILED AGAINST THE MANUFACTURER.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Jul 9, 2019
MY VEHICLE STALLS UPON ACCELERATION Z I'VE BEEN TOLD IT WAS BAD GAS AS WELL AS NEEDING AN OIL CHANGE, BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. *BF CONSUMER STATED MY CURRENT MILEAGE IS RIGHT AT 15,000. I FIRST NOTICED THE STALL ISSUE SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN JULY OF 2018. I RECEIVED A NOTICE OF A RECALL THAT COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO STALL. IT REQUIRED REPROGRAMMING AND THAT WAS DONE IN OCTOBER. I HAVE NOTICED THE STALLING AT VARIOUS TIMES SINCE THEN. MY LAST OIL CHANGE WAS IN APRIL AT JUST UNDER 10,000. I GO BY THE OIL LIFE INDICATOR ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL AND I HAD IT CHANGED WHEN I HAD ABOUT 15% LEFT ON MY OIL LIFE. THERE IS NOT CHIME OR WARNING THAT POPS UP WHEN THE STALL HAPPENS. I AM USUALLY ACCELERATING AFTER HAVING TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP. THE RPMS REDLINE, BUT THE VEHICLE FEELS LIKE I AM PUSHING THE BRAKES. IT WILL THEN "KICK IN" AND ACCELERATE AT A HIGH SPEED EVEN IF I'M BARELY PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL*JB
Other or unspecified, Engine, Jul 6, 2019
VEHICLE WITH 23 K MILES WITH OIL CONSUMPTION AND COOLANT PROBLEMS, WITH NO INDICATOR WARNING OF LOW OIL OR COOLANT LEVEL. THIS VEHICLE COULD SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING, WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE THAT NOW WILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH OIL CONSUMPTION PROGRAM. ACCORDING TO NUMEROUS ONLINE COMPLAINTS, THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING. THIS COULD BE A POTENTIALLY HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND/OR RECALLED IMMEDIATELY.
Vehicle speed control, Engine, Jul 5, 2019
I NOTICED A LAG IN A INCREASE IN SPEED & STALLING IN THE ENGINE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION.
Electrical system, Electronic stability control (ESC), Jul 2, 2019
ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE STOP/START AND STABILITY CONTROL GO OUT WHILE DRIVING. SEEMS TO BE RANDOM. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING. DEALERSHIP SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG. I'VE CAPTURED DATES AND TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED AND IT'S FREQUENT - SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK. ONE TIME I LOST POWER STEERING AND SPEEDOMETER. DEALERSHIP SAID 24 CODES WENT OFF. COULDN'T T FIND PROBLEM. REBOOTED COMPUTER AND SAID THAT IT WAS FINE. IT ISN'T FINE.
Structure, Jul 2, 2019
PLASTIC DOOR TRIM IS COMING OFF EXTERIOR OF VEHICLE. NOTICED WHILE WASHING THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR ALSO RIPPED OUT OF HEADLINER AFTER A HANDFUL OF USES. THE FIRST TIME WAS WHILE DRIVING. COMPLETELY DANGEROUS AS IT TAKES 2 HANDS TO PUT IT BACK UP.
Power train, Jul 2, 2019
AT AROUND 1200 RPM AND AT ABOUT 30-40 MPH, COMING OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND THEN BACK ON IT RESULTS IN A CLUNK TYPE NOISE. IT APPEARS TO BE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. AT TIMES IT IS A SLIGHT NOISE, AT OTHER TIMES IT IS QUITE LOUD. AFTER 2 VISITS TO THE DEALER AND RISING TO LEVEL 2 AT JEEPS CUSTOMER SERVICE NO ONE CAN OFFER A FIX. JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE SAYS THE TRANSMISSION WILL SELF CALIBRATE AND THE NOISE WILL GO AWAY. ALMOST 2000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND IT HASN'T SELF CALIBRATED YET.
Engine, Jun 29, 2019
SLOWED DOWN BEFORE AN INTERSECTION AND WHEN I ACCELERATED, THE ENGINE QUIT AND I LOST POWER STEERING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR ONLY ONE MONTH, 1200 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION.

Power train, Jun 24, 2019
THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTING AT LOW SPEEDS CONSTANTLY HESITATES AND FREEZES WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. MOST OFTEN AFTER STOPING. THE RESULTANT DELAY IN SHIFTING OFTEN OCCURS WHEN PULLING INTO TRAFFIC AND IS PARTICULARLY BAD WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP UP A HILL. AS A NATURAL REACTION TO THE EFFECT OF A STALL WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE THE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED FURTHER. WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FINALLY DECIDES TO DOWNSHIFT IT RESULTS IN A ROUGH JERKING OF FORWARD ACCELERATION AND HIGH RPM ACCELERATION. THIS BEHAVIOR HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN FAULTY SINCE THE DAY THE CAR WAS DELIVERED NEW WITH 20 MILES. THE DEALER CLAIMS THERE IS NO SOLUTION UNTIL THE MANUFACTURER ISSUES A COMPUTER SOFTWARE FIX.
Engine, Jun 24, 2019
THIS VEHICLE IS USING 4 QT OF OIL FOR EVER 3800 MILES TRAVELED. IT HAS A CAPACITY OF 5.5 QTS. THE OIL WARNING LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON WHEN THE OIL IS LOW. MY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS IS WHEN I WAS MAKING A HARD LEFT TURN THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY 3 LANE ROADWAY. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS BLINK SUCH AS OIL, BATTERY, TRANSMISSION. I HAD TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTART THE ENGINE. THE CAR WAS BRAND NEW. ONLY 3800 MILES ON IT. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER THEY SAID TO CHECK THE OIL. IT WAS 4 QTS LOW. THIS HAS HAPPENED AGAIN JUST RECENTLY AT 19990 MILES ON THE VEHICLE.
Steering, Other or unspecified, Engine, Jun 23, 2019
MY 2019 IS ABOUT TO HAVE IT'S 3RD OIL CHANGE, APPARENTLY IT'S SUPPOSED TO GO EVERY 3,000 MILES TO GET AN OIL CHANGE. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THE GUY THAT'S IN SERVICES DIDN'T CARE OF MY CONCERN REGARDING THE CHEROKEE TURNING OFF WHILE DRIVING DURING TRAFFIC ESPECIALLY IN THE FREEWAYS, ALL HE KEPT SAYING YUP YUP YUP. HE KEPT TELLING ME HE HAS A PAPER STATING THAT JEEP CHEROKEES NEW MODELS ARE BUILT LIKE THAT NOW. ALL HE OFFERED WAS TO DO AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WHICH I HAVE TO MAKE AN APPT FOR AND GO EVERY 1,000 MILES TO GET IT READ. I MENTIONED THAT THE COMPASS HAS THE SAME TYPE ENGINE, HOWEVER, WITH THE COMPASS I WOULD GO 5,000 MILES OR MORE. I CANNOT CONTINUE TO PAY FOR A CAR THAT PUTS ME AND MY FAMILY AT RISK FOR ACCIDENT. MY CAR TURNS OFF COMPLETELY ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD TURNS ON BEFORE TURNING OFF AND STATES IT'S THE BATTERY WHEN IT'S NOT THE BATTERY. WHY HASNT THIS BEEN RECALLED OR FIX MY CHRYSLER OR FIAT! THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS AROUND CHRISTMAS TIME THEN 3 MONTHS LATER. I HAD TO GET MY FIRST OIL CHANGE BEFORE THE 3 MONTHS OF GETTING IT.
Electrical system, Jun 20, 2019
THE PAST FIVE DAYS, EVERY TIME I TURN LEFT OR RIGHT MY "LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT" COMES ON. I KEEP UP WITH MY OIL. WHEN I START MY VEHICLE AND DRIVE ABOUT A MILE, MY START/STOP WILL STOP THE VEHICLE AND MY BATTERY LIGHT WILL TURN ON WHEN MY BATTERIES LIFE IS AT 14.2 V. THE VOLTAGE OF MY BATTERY HAS BEEN MOVING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN 13-14.2 IT WILL NOT GO ANY HIGHER OR ANY LOWER. MY CAR SHOULD NOT BE COMPLETELY SHUTTING OFF WHEN I'M DRIVING IT. AFTER MY BATTERY LIGHT POPS UP, A MESSAGE ON MY VEHICLE WILL SAY PUT YOUR VEHICLE IN PARK AND ONCE I DO I TURN MY VEHICLE OFF AND TRY TO START IT AND IT WON'T. AFTER THE THIRD TIME OF TRYING TO RESTART IT IT HESITATES BUT DOES START.
Electrical system, Vehicle speed control, Engine, Jun 19, 2019
EVERYTHING DOWN TO THE ENGINE HAS BEEN REPLACED AND STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE IDLE BEING HIGH SITTING OR MOVING, USUALLY A VERY QUITE VEHICLE IS NOW LOUD, SMELLS LIKE GAS IS LEAKING, AUTO SHUT OFF WORKS SOMETIMES, THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE HANDLE MOST TIMES WON'T UNLOCK, WHEN THERE'S NO ONE IN THE JEEP AND THE BUTTON IS PUSHED ON THE HANDLE IT SAYS TO PUSH BREAK TO START THE VEHICLE WHILE STILL TRYING TO UNLOCK THE DOORS AND OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE, HESITATES TO TAKE OFF AT TIMES WHILE PULLING OUT FROM A STOP SIGN OR TO PASS SOMEONE
Service brakes, Jun 19, 2019
I HAVE A 2019 CHEROKEE WITH APPROX 18500 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD THE EBS (EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM) COME ON WHILE IDLING AT A STOPLIGHT 5 TIMES. THE DEALERSHIP HAS NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON. THE HANDLE TO RELEASE IT DOES NOT RESPOND. IT APPEARS TO HAPPEN WHEN YOU ARE RELEASING YOUR BOOT FROM THE BRAKE. I BELIEVE THE CAR THINKS IT IS ROLLING AND REACTS.
Power train, Jun 18, 2019
VEHICLE BOUGHT WITH ABOUT 14 MILES ON IT. AT ABOUT 200 MILES A NOISE APPEARED WHEN COASTING AND APPLYING LIGHT PRESSURE ON THE GAS. THE NOISE HAS BECOME LOUDER AND MORE NOTICEABLE TO THE POINT WHERE YOU CAN FEEL THE NOISE IN YOUR FEET. ONE A FEW OCCASIONS, THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON, THE NOISE BECAME LOUDER AND HAPPENED FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME. DEALER CAN'T FIND AN ISSUE BUT REFUSE TO TELL ME IF IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE. DEALER TOOK A DIFFERENT VEHICLE (EXACTLY THE SAME) AND FOUND THE NOISE IS HAPPENING IN THAT VEHICLE AS WELL. PRETTY SURE THE ISSUE IS IN THE DRIVETRAIN. DEALER REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO FCA STAR ENGINEERING BUT THERE IS "NO FIX AT THIS POINT". IT WAS FOUND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE FOR ALMOST A YEAR. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 1900 MILES ON IT...

I PURCHASED A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE AND IN LESS THAN 3,000 MILES THE CAR BROKE DOWN. IT GAVE NO INDICATION, JUST COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A FAST-PACED HIGHWAY AND ALMOST KILLED ME. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WAS LOW ON OIL AND THEY ASSUMED SINCE THE CAR WAS SO NEW THEN MAYBE IT HADN'T BEEN PROPERLY FILLED. AS THE VEHICLE APPROACHED 6,000 MILES, THE ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN AND THE CAR WAS STALLED IN THE LEFT LANE OF A SMALL ROAD, BLOCKING TRAFFIC. NOW THEY TELL ME THAT THERE WAS A DEFECT WITH THE ENGINE AND THAT IT IS BURNING TOO HOT AND, THEREFORE CONSUMING THE OIL AT A FAST RATE. I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW SHELL SHOCKED I WAS TO HAVE MY BRAND NEW JEEP VEHICLE STALL TWICE ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND HAD NO IDEA HOW DANGEROUS THE MOTOR WAS. I HAVE SPENT A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME AND ENERGY TRYING TO GET THIS VEHICLE FIXED AS WELL AS NOT HAVING A MODE OF TRANSPORTATION AS IT STAYS IN THE SHOP FOR I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG. BOTTOM LINE, I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU DIRECTLY ABOUT WHAT MY RIGHTS ARE AS A CONSUMER REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND THE LEMON THAT WE LEASED. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOUR COMPANY DOES TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. I AM A LIFELONG CHRYSLER BUYER, HAVE BEEN VERY LOYAL AS A CUSTOMER, BUT THE TREATMENT I HAVE RECEIVED SO FAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND THROUGHOUT THIS ENTIRE PROCESS HAS BEEN EXTREMELY DISHEARTENING.

ON 6/8/2019, I PULLED THROUGH MY GATE, LEFT THE VEHICLE IN PARK TO CLOSE THE GATE WHICH TAKES A FEW SECONDS. MY VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. RESTARTED, AC WAS OFF, AUDIO ALSO OFF. DROVE FOR ABOUT 35 MILES, MADE 2 STOPS, ALL OK. NEXT LEG OF TRIP APPROX 20 MILES, COMING INTO ANOTHER TOWN AND APPROACHING TRAFFIC LIGHT. AT THE LIGHT AS I STOPPED, THE VEHICLE AGAIN SHUT DOWN IN DRIVE AT THE STOP LIGHT IN CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC. THIS WAS NOT THE AUTO STOP/START, IT SHUT DOWN AGAIN. HAD TO PUT IN PARK, IT DID RESTART, AND AGAIN, AC OFF, AUDIO OFF. PROCEEDED TO MY NEXT STOP WHERE THE VEHICLE TRIED TO SHUT DOWN AS I PULLED INTO PARKING SPOT, I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE PARKING. UPON RETURNING TO THE VEHICLE, IT STARTED, BUT NOW HAVE BACK UP CAMERA FAILURE WHICH HAS NOT WORKED SINCE THAT EPISODE. THIS WAS TERRIBLY DANGEROUS AS I WAS IN A LOT OF TRAFFIC AND WAS HELPLESS UNTIL I GOT IT TO RESTART.

VEHICLE RANDOMLY STALLED WHILE DRIVING. HAD OIL CHANGED BY DEALER VERY RECENTLY. UNKNOWN CAUSE. BASED ON RECALLS FOR RELATED VEHICLES, POSSIBLY CAUSED BY FAULTY TRANSMISSION OR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. OCCURRED AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN, AND THEN ACCELERATING UP TO 45 MPH ON A BUSY ROAD. SHORTLY AFTER ACCELERATING, THE TOUCHSCREEN WENT OUT, THE VEHICLE STALLED, AND THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO PULL OFF ON A SMALL AREA AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO LET OTHER CARS PASS. WAS ONLY ABLE TO GET GOING AGAIN AFTER TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTING IT.

THE RADIO OPERATES ERRATICALLY AND WILL BOUNCE FROM ONE MODE TO ANOTHER. THE AUDIO WILL GO IN AND OUT AS WELL AS THE AIR AND HEAT. THE SCREEN GOES BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN RADIO, CONTROLS, NAVIGATION, CLIMATE, APPS, AND MEDIA UNCONTROLLABLY WITHOUT ANY PROMPTING FROM THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION EACH TIME IT ACTED ERRATICALLY CAUSING MAJOR DISTRACTION AND DISRUPTION TO THE DRIVER. THIS HAPPENED ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS, WHILE TURNING, AND WHILE PARKED WITH THE CAR ON. WHEN BROUGHT TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NO PROBLEM AND THAT NOTHING COULD BE FIXED.

TAKATA RECALL I HAD WITNESSED MY AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOY, WHEN I WAS JUST INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT. BECAUSE I HAD UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WHICH CAUSED ME TO NOT BE ABLE TO STOP AND WE WERE HIT ON THE SIDE AND OUR SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY ON OUR RIGHT SIDE. *DT*JB

AS I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR 3 DAYS, I CAN'T SAY WHAT IT 'USED TO' DRIVE LIKE. BUT MORE THAN A FEW TIMES, I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, AND THE VEHICLE HESITATES FOR A MOMENT. SOMETIMES I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ACROSS TRAFFIC, OR CROSS A BUSY HIGHWAY. FORTUNATELY, I HAVEN'T BEEN IN ANY CLOSE CALLS YET, BUT I CAN DEFINITELY SEE HOW AN ACCIDENT COULD OCCUR, IF YOU PUSH ON THE GAS TO MAKE A TURN AND YOUR CAR ACCELERATES REALLY SLOWLY FOR THE FIRST 2 SECONDS. I WILL BE TAKING MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ON MONDAY TO SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT IT.

JUST PURCHASED VEHICLE 3 DAYS AGO. HAS 3,300 MILES ON IT. EVERY TIME I'VE DRIVEN IT TODAY, THE RADIO VOLUME AND RECEPTION FADES IN AND OUT. ON EVERY CHANNEL. I DON'T LIVE OR DRIVE IN REMOTE AREAS, SO IT IS NOT A SIGNAL ISSUE. I ENJOY LISTENING TO MUSIC WHILE DRIVING, BUT THIS WAS SO ANNOYING THAT I RODE HOME IN SILENCE. THE FADE IN AND OUT HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF MOTION OF THE VEHICLE OR VOLUME I TURN IT UP TO.
