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.

I was driving and wrecked into a sign because I was unable to stop and the vehicle caught on fire under the hood.
Electrical system, Exterior lighting, Engine, Apr 22, 2025, crash
I was pulling into the gas station to get some gas. I'm used to use a 2-ft drive so what I could not lift my left foot to put pressure on the brake I used my right foot. It slipped off the brake and after the accelerator and I hit a small Pole stopping me from going into the gas station front door. Just could have been raised up to a work accident I had a couple weeks prior.

JEEP IS HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES. IT WILL RANDOMLY GO INTO LIMP MODE AT START, BUT TURNING IT OFF AND RESTARTING IT FIXES THAT ISSUE. IT'S DONE THIS THREE TIMES IN THE 2 YEARS WE HAVE HAD IT. I AM NOW HAVING AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WHERE SOMETHING IS CAUSING A DRAW ON THE BATTERY WHILE THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR, STARTER, AND NOW THE BATTERY.IT IS CAUSING THE BATTERY TO SWELL, AND THE JEEP IS HAVING TO BE JUMPED TO START MULTIPLE TIMES A WEEK. THE BATTERY WAS PUT ON A DEEP CHARGE, AND IT HAD TO BE JUMPED THE NEXT DAY. ALSO THE AIR CONDITIONING BACK LIGHTING GOES OFF AND ON WHEN YOU TURN THE KNOBS OR ADJUST THE FAN SPEED WHILE BOTH DRIVING AND STATIONARY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ROUGHLY A MONTH.

THE JEEP HAS ELECTRICAL STUFF HAPPENING SPORADICALLY AND DOES NOT START BUT WITH POWER BUT AFTER 3 TO 6 ATTEMPTS STARTS RIGHT UP. I TURN KEY ALL POWER AND BELLS GO OFF AND IT MAKES A HUMMING NOISE AND 1 CLICK NOISE DASH SAYS ' TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP' THE JEEP IS COLD SO NOT OVER TEMPERATURE. I'VE SEEN A LOT OF POST ABOUT RECALL AND ALSO ABOUT IGNITION SWITCH OR MODULE. I'VE ONLY OWNED FOR 2 YEARS AND DEALER SAID CAR HAD NO RECALLS WHEN I PURCHASED. THIS HAPPENS STATIONARY AND ALSO AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 20 MINUTES TO DESTINATION AND WHEN I WENT TO LEAVE IT TOOK SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE STARTING. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR LAST 3 DAYS BUT FEW MESSAGES RANDOMLY POPPED IN INFORMATION CENTER FEW TIMES BEFORE THIS HAD AT DEALER ON COMPUTER NO CODES SAID IT WAS OKAY
Steering, Engine, May 31, 2020
THE HEAT OF THE SUMMER MONTHS TEND TO MAKE THE CAR ENGINE SPUTTER AS YOU HEAD DOWN THE ROAD. THIS HAPPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY ONLY THIS TIME AS WE PREPARED TO MAKE OUR TURN THE VEHICLE TOTALLY SHUT OFF, ALLOWING ME TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE STEERING WE WERE FORTUNATE NO ONE WAS BEHIND US OR PULLING OUT WHERE WE WERE TURNING . WE WOULD HAVE EITHER BEEN REAR ENDED OR WOULD HAVE RUN INTO ANY CAR WAITING TO TURN.

I HAVE A 2007 GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE TAKING MY KIDS TO SCHOOL, I WAS SLOWING DOWN WHEN THE JEEP JUST DIED. I COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AGAIN. ANYTIME SINCE THEN, MAINLY WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO STOP, IT WOULD DO THE SAME THING. TRIED REPLACING ECM, SENSORS, ETC. NOTHING HAS WORKED YET. JEEP DEALER TOLD US IT COULD BE THE WIRING HARNESS...WHICH WE CANT FIND ANYWHERE.
Engine, Feb 20, 2020
I HAVE 2 ISSUES. 1ST IS JEEP INTERMITTENTLY DOESN'T START. WHICH SOMETIMES CAUSES IT TO SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING LUCKILY I HAVE BEEN ON SIDE STREETS. IT CRANKS BUT DOESN'T FIRE. WAS TOLD IT COULD BE A BAD FUEL PUMP RELAY. NEXT ISSUE IS IT INTERMITTENTLY PUTS IN SELF IN ALL GEARS SOMETIMES WHEN I START IT AND SOMETIMES WHEN DRIVING. I HAVE TO TURN JEEP OFF AND RESTART IT. WORST HAS BEEN WHEN I'M ON HIGHWAY AND IT DOES THIS I GO FROM 75MPH TO 20MPH AT A DANGEROUS RATE. I THEN HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN OFF AND RESTART AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS ON AND OFF FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW. AND PROGRESSIVELY GETTING MORE OFTEN.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Engine, Nov 8, 2019
ENGINE STALLS NO MATTER WHAT SPEED I'M GOING. HAPPENS MORE OFTEN WHEN COMING TO A STOP. IT'S AS IF I JUST TURN THE KEY OFF. WHEN IT STALLS, I STOP AND PUT IT IN PARK, TURN THE KEY OFF AND START IT RIGHT BACK UP AND TAKE OFF. IT'S BECOMING A DANGEROUS SAFETY CONCERN.

ON SEPTEMBER 9 I WAS DRIVING BACK FROM MY GRAND DAUGHTER SCHOOL AND AS I WAS PULLING ON MY STREET, THE JEEP SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I HAD NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON OR ANY TYPE OF WARNINGS. I HAD TO COAST INTO MY DRIVEWAY. IT DOESN'T START AT ALL. IT HAD AN OIL CHANGE AND FLUIDS IN JEEP. IT DID IT WITHOUT WARNING
Engine, Sep 24, 2019
ENGINE DIES WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHETHER I'M TRAVELING 10 MPH OR 70 MPH. VERY DANGEROUS! NO WARNING SIGNS OR LIGHTS BEFORE SHUT DOWN OCCURS.
Vehicle speed control, Engine, Sep 19, 2019
CAR WILL STAY AT 40 MPH AS IF LOCKED INTO THAT SPEED. I PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR WILL NOT GO ANY FASTER. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN THE CAR OFF, WHEN RESTARTED IT WORKS FINE FOR A WHILE. THEN RANDOMLY IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS HAS OCCURRED ROUGHLY ONCE A MONTH FOR THE PAST YEAR. ON LINE THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF JEEP OWNERS REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE. I CALLED JEEP BUT THEY SAID CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY SO TOUGH LUCK. I HAVE OWNED 23 CARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR DO THIS TO ME. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE DRIVEN THIS CAR WITH THE SAME ISSUES. THIS HAS HAPPENED BOTH ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON RURAL STREETS.
Steering, Other or unspecified, Engine, May 20, 2019
THE ENGINE DIED GOING 70MPH ON THE HWY WITH OUT ANY NOTICE. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF ROAD AS STEERING LOCKED UP, ONCE ON SIDE OF ROAD, I PUT IT INTO 'PARK' AND 'RESTARTED THE ENGINE'. IT WORKED JUST FINE FROM THEN ON, TILL ABOUT 3 MONTHS LATER, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME I WAS APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT AND TURNING RIGHT, I BARELY WAS ABLE TO GET THRU THE LIGHT AND TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, AS THE STEERING HAD AGAIN LOCKED UP. THIS IS VERY SCARY! EVERYTHING IN THE CAR TURNS 'OFF', I DONT EVEN THINK THE FLASHERS WORKED DURING THESE TIMES. ONCE AT A COMPLETE STOP, AND AFTER PUTTING INTO 'PARK', EVERYTHING STARTS BACK UP NORMALLY, AND DRIVES FINE. THERE IS NOT ANY OTHER SIGNS OF ANYTHING WRONG, NO DASH LIGHT WARNINGS OR ANYTHING.

HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THEY SAID IT HAD DROPPED A VALVE SEAT. CHRYSLER DETERMINED THAT IT HAPPENED BECAUSE IT HAD BEEN OVERHEATED. HOWEVER THERE WERE ABSOLUTELY NO OVERHEAT CODES IN THE COMPUTER. THE GAUGES HAVE NEVER READ HOT. IT WAS NOT LOW ON COOLANT. THEY STATED THAT THERE WERE NO LEAKS. IT WAS NEVER HOT.

THIS VEHICLE HAS A 5.7 LITER HEMI V-8. IT CURRENTLY HAS AN EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAK BECAUSE JEEP USES CHEAP SCREWS TO MOUNT THE MANIFOLD TO THE ENGINE BLOCK. AS SUCH, THE SCREWS SNAP CAUSING A LEAK. THIS IS A WELL KNOW PROBLEM FOR THIS ENGINE BUT CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT AND THE REPAIRS WILL BE A MINIMUM OF $500. NEVER BUY A JEEP!
