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.

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.
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.

Power train, automatic transmissionSep 14, 2005
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.

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.

ALL OF THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE ARE BROKEN. ALL FOUR OF THEM WERE REPLACED ONCE. A FEW MONTHS AFTER BEING REPLACE THEY ALL BROKE ONCE AGAIN. SO NOW THE DOORS CAN ONLY BE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE, AND TO GET OUT OF THE CAR THE WINDOWS HAVE TO BE ROLLED DOWN TO OPEN WITH THE OUTSIDE HANDLE. THE JEEP DEALER WAS CALLED. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WOULDN'T BE COVERED BY THE WARRANTY BECAUSE OF THE MILEAGE AND CALLED IT "WEAR AND TEAR". THIS IS A BIG ISSUE, MY PASSENGERS AND I CAN'T GET OUT OF MY JEEP UNLESS THE WINDOWS ARE DOWN AND REACH OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO OPEN WITH OUTSIDE HANDLE. IT IS ALSO HARD FOR ME TO DO AT TIMES BECAUSE I AM A PETITE WOMAN.

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE ON THE JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2005 MODEL WHERE THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE HOUSING CRACKS AND THE HANDLE FALLS AND BECOMES UNUSABLE. THIS HAPPENS ON ALL DOORS OF CAR BUT THE FIRST ONE TO GO IN MY CASE WAS THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. ONCE THE HANDLE FALLS YOU ARE UNABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR USING THAT DOOR. IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY THIS COULD BE EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS. JEEP HAS NOT PROVIDED A FIX EXCEPT TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE DOOR. A RECALL IS NEEDED AS ALMOST EVERYONE WITH THIS MODEL OF CAR IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

THE CAR WOULD DIE AFTER BEING AT A STOP SIGN AND ACCELERATING TO PULL OUT INTO AN INTERSECTION LEAVING MY DAUGHTER WITH NO POWER. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 3 TO 4 TIMES SINCE WE PURCHASED THIS JEEP FROM THE FIRST OWNER. WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR MONTHS TO GET THIS CORRECTED. I CALL THE LOCAL DEALER EVERY 3-4 MONTHS TRYING TO GET THIS RESOLVED. WITH THE FIRST INCIDENT AND MAYBE THE SECOND, THE RECALL HADN'T BEEN ISSUED. WE FIRST THOUGHT WE NEEDED TO CHANGE OUT THE SPARK PLUGS. AFTER NOT GETTING ANY ASSISTANCE BECAUSE THERE IS NO AVAILABLE PART, WE CALLED THE CHRYSLER GROUP RECALL CENTER. AFTER WAITING OVER TWO HOURS TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE AND ONLY GETTING THE RECORDED GREETING, WE GAVE UP. WE ARE VERY CONCERNED AT THIS POINT AS OUR YOUNGEST DAUGHTER IS USING THIS VEHICLE. WE LOVE THIS CAR BUT SAFETY COMES FIRST. AFTER READING THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY CHRYSLER REGARDING ITS DESCRIPTED "THE PROBLEM", ETHICALLY, I COULDN'T SELL THIS TO ANYONE KNOWING IT HAS A RECALL.

THIS 2005 JEEP CHEROKEE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW FROM GARY BARBARA JEEP / CHRYSLER, UPON DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE DASH LIGHTS, GAUGES, A/C (HAPPENS WITH HEAT AS WELL) BEGAN GOING ON AND OFF THEN OFF WHILE VEHICLE IS STILL IN MOTION, THIS HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED INCLUDING NO TURN SIGNALS OR BRAKE LIGHTS. THIS SOMETIMES WILL REGAIN NORMAL OPERATION BUT MOST TIMES THE VEHICLE HAS TO BE PULLED OVER AND SHUT OFF THEN RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN INTO THE PURCHASED DEALERSHIP AND ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED "SAYING COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG" THEN AS THIS HAS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN WAS TAKEN TO MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS WITH SAME ISSUE AND SAME RESPONSE. THIS WENT ON THE WHOLE TIME THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY, AND THE ISSUE WAS NEVER RESOLVED. I CONTINUED TO CONTACT CHRYSLER OVER THE YEARS AND NO ONE WOULD RESPOND, AT ONE POINT A CHRYSLER REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME TO GO POUND SAND SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AFTER ME CALLING TO FOLLOW-UP ON ANOTHER (ONE OF MANY) DETAILED LETTER REGARDING THIS ISSUE. THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN AND OBVIOUSLY THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE, I REFUSE TO RESELL THE AUTO AND WANT IT FIXED. I RECENTLY RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE THIS YEAR - 2015 FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH, I AM NOT IMPLYING THIS IS THE REPAIR FIX FOR THE ISSUE BUT RE-OPENED MY QUEST TO GET CHRYSLER TO PROPERLY REPAIR THIS ISSUE. I WAS TOLD BY BOTH CHERRY HILL JEEP/CHRYSLER AND CHRYSLER DIRECT CASE #[XXX] THE PARTS FOR THIS RECALL ARE UNAVAILABLE, A DATE OR TIME FRAME FOR THEM IS UNKNOWN AND IF I WANTED WOULD HAVE TO PAY A $98.00 FEE TO GET THE AUTO DIAGNOSED TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF THE POWERLOSS DURING OPERATION OF AUTO. THIS HAS CONTINUED MY BELIEF THAT CHRYSLER REALLY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ITS CUSTOMERS OR ITS PRODUCTS NOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR AUTOMOBILES.
