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.

A transfer case electrical failure may result in an unintentional shifting of the transfer case into the neutral position.
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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE WAS CRACKED.

INTERIOR DOOR PANELS ARE CRACKING & BREAKING APART AROUND HANDLES. THREE OF FOUR DOORS ALREADY HAVE DAMAGE, AM WAITING FOR REAR PASSENGER DOOR TO DO THE SAME. PURCHASED 2005 JEEP, USED, W/ LESS THAN 21,000 MILES ON ODOMETER, NO VISIBLE DAMAGE AT THAT TIME. REAR DOORS ARE RARELY USED AS WE USUALLY ONLY HAVE THE DRIVER OR DRIVER AND ONE PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE. HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT W/ JEEP/CHRYSLER, HOWEVER, THEY MAINTAIN THAT: THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF 3 YR/36000 MILE WARRANTY; IT WAS PURCHASED USED; THEREFORE, THEY WILL NOT HELP TO REPAIR THIS, EVEN THOUGH IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AND OBVIOUSLY THE DOOR PANELS WERE DEFECTIVE INITIALLY. CUSTOMER SERVICE @ CHRYSLER EVEN SUGGESTED THAT I GO TO A DEALER & HAVE THEM INSPECT THIS. I ASKED IF THE DEALER WOULD HAVE A 'PLASTICS PROFESSIONAL' ON HAND TO BE ABLE TO SAY THAT THE PANELS WERE DEFECTIVE, OF COURSE THE ANSWER IS 'NO'. DEALERS WILL ONLY DO WHAT CHRYSLER TELLS THEM, AND SO FAR, WE'RE NOT GETTING ANYWHERE W/ THEM. HELP!!! *TR

THE DOOR HANDLES ARE DISINTEGRATION. THE PLASTIC IS SO BRITTLE IT SNAPS UNDER VERY LITTLE PRESSURE. THIS IS HAPPENING ON ALL FOUR DOORS. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP ITS NOT A RECALL ITEM BUT IN MY OPINION BEING ABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES OR IN AN EMERGENCY IS CRITICAL. I USE MORE FORCE TO BREAK A PIECE OF CELERY IN HALF THAN I DID TO BREAK OFF A PIECE OF THIS PLASTIC. ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE HAS AN ACCIDENT AND DIES BECAUSE OF SIMPLE HANDLE FAILURE. *TR

NOTICED IN 2010 THAT SMALL PIECE OF PLASTIC WAS MISSING BEHIND ONE DOOR HANDLE. THIS IS A LIGHTLY USED ONE PERSON COMMUTER VEHICLE. THEN IN DECEMBER 2011 ALL FOUR DOOR HANDLES BEGAN TO FAIL. EACH HAS MISSING PIECES OF PLASTIC BEHIND EACH HANDLE THAT COMPROMISE THEIR USE. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED NEW AND SERVICED SINCE 2006. WAS ADVISED IT WOULD BE $750 PER DOOR TO FIX AS THE DOOR HANDLES ARE INTEGRATED INTO THE PLASTIC DOOR PANEL. COMPLETE FAILURE OF ALL FOUR HANDLES IS IMMINENT. WE ARE VERY CONCERNED FOR OUR SAFETY. A BRIEF SEARCH OF THE INTERNET SHOWS THAT THIS MANUFACTURE DEFECT IS WIDESPREAD IN THIS MAKE AND MODEL. IT IS CLEAR THAT BOTH THE MATERIAL AND DESIGN USED IS DEFECTIVE. REPLACEMENT WITH OM PARTS WILL NOT FIX, AS THE PROBLEMS IS WITH THE DESIGN AND MATERIAL. PLEASE HELP US GET THIS ISSUE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED.

MY 2005 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HAS HAD ALL 4 DOOR HANDLES CRACK AND 1 HAS COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF. AFTER RESEARCHING THE INTERNET, I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE ON THIS VEHICLE, AND SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. IN ANY OCCASION WHERE EXITING THE VEHICLE QUICKLY IS NECESSARY, BROKEN DOOR HANDLE(S) CAN RISK INJURY AND DEATH TO OCCUPANTS. THIS IS NOT A MINOR ISSUE, JUST LIKE AN EMERGENCY EXIT IN A BUILDING, IT CAN BE POTENTIALLY FATAL. NHTSA OWES THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THE COMMON COURTESY TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS POSSES A HUGE RISK FOR IT'S CITIZENS.
