Recalls and investigations
Electrical system, ignition, switchJul 21, 2014
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.
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.
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.

If the vehicle shifts into neutral, it may roll away increasing the risk of a crash or personal injury.
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.

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.

Steering, Electrical system, Mar 23, 2015
THE JEEP INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WENT DARK AND NON OPERATIONAL AS WELL AS THE POWER STEERING NOT WORKING. TURN SIGNALS WERE NOT WORKING AS WELL. DRIVING 45 MPH AND THIS HAPPENS IN A TURN IN THE ROAD ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR WRECK DUE TO THE POWER STEERING AND TURN SIGNALS NOT WORKING. THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE HAPPENING AND THE CONSUMER HAVING THE IGNITION SWITCH REPLACED TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS ISSUE IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE YET CHRYSLER ISSUED A RECALL THAT DOES NOT HAVE A FIX. WE WERE TOLD BY CHRYSLER THAT IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE THE JEEP WITH THE ISSUES. HOWEVER WE DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS AUTOMOBILE. IF WE KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO BE HAPPENING WE WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THE JEEP. *TR
