What owners report most often
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.

Power train, transfer case (4-wheel drive)May 7, 2013
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.

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SRT8 AND THE FRONT TWO TIRES HAVE BLOWN OUT WITH ONLY 12K MILES ON THEM TWICE. ONCE AT 12K AND AGAIN AT 24K. THERE WAS A RECALL ISSUED IN 2006 FOR 2006 SRT8 MODELS BUT NOTHING FOR THE 2007 MODEL YEAR. THESE TIRE HAVE BEEN DETERMINED UNSAFE IN 2006, BUT THE SAME TIRES AND PROBLEMS ARE HAPPENING IN 2007.

Electrical system, Jun 24, 2008
MY 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE CONTINUES TO STALL (TOTAL LOSS OF ALL ELECTRICAL) WHEN DRIVING. GENERALLY THIS HAPPENS WHEN I AM COASTING. I HAVE TAKEN MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE AFTER REPEATEDLY HAVING THIS HAPPEN, BUT THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT GET THE PROBLEM TO DUPLICATE ITSELF. I SEE NOW THIS STALLING PROBLEM IS HAPPENING ON OTHER MODEL JEEPS, SOMETHING THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT BOTHER TO MENTION. I AM VERY CONCERNED THE PROBLEM IS GOING TO LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. *TR

I AM DRIVING A 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE WITH THE 3.0 L DIESEL ENGINE. COMPLAINT: WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE LEFT LANE MY JEEP STALLED AND AS I WAS TRYING TO CHANGE LANES I ALMOST GOT HIT. I LOST POWER AND IT WAS HARD TO STEER THE CAR AND ENDED UP HAVING TO PUSH THE CAR WITH SOME HELP TO THE CURBSIDE. I WAS NOT ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR. I KNOW THE JEEP HAS A MERCEDES BENZ ENGINE JUST LIKE OTHER MERCEDES THAT NOW I HAVE ALSO HEARD 2007 MERCEDES BENZES WITH THE SAME EXACT DIESEL ENGINE HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED. PLEASE NOTE THAT JEEP, WITH THE SAME ENGINE IS HAVING SAME ENGINE PROBLEM AND PLEASE RECALL SO THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT IN DANGER. IT WAS A VERY SCARY DAY, I COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR LOST MY LIFE OR MY CHILDS LIFE OR ANOTHER FAMILY. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND I AM NOT FEELING GOOD ABOUT THIS ENGINE ON THE ROAD. THANK YOU FOR ADDRESSING THIS ISSUE. *TR

AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 40 MILES ON HIGHWAY, THEN TURNING ONTO LOCAL STREETS, ALL WARNING LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD LIT UP, MESSAGE BOARD FLASHED "TRANSMISSION OVERTEMP" WARNING, THEN "CHECK GAUGES" WARNING. THE VEHICLE WENT INTO LIMP HOME MODE, NO GAUGES WORKED, INCLUDING SPEEDOMETER. ONCE SHUT OFF, VEHICLE TOOK A WHILE BEFORE IT WOULD START AGAIN. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER. DEALER COULD NOT REPLICATE OR DIAGNOSE PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THIS IS RELATED TO THE CRANKSHAFT POSITIONING SENSOR PROBLEM THAT PROMPTED A RECENT RECALL OF THIS ENGINE BY MERCEDES BENZ (3L CRD ENGINE). CHRYSLER WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM. *TR
Equipment, Apr 4, 2008
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR CONDENSER, LOCATED BELOW THE CENTER OF THE BUMPER, HAS A VERY LARGE OPENING. THE LARGE OPENING ALLOWED A ROCK OR SOME OTHER FOREIGN LARGE PARTICLE TO PUNCTURE THE AIR CONDENSER. AS A RESULT, THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM FAILED. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED BECAUSE THE FAILURE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT PROVIDED ANY ASSISTANCE. THE CONTACT HAS PICTURES OF THE FAILED COMPONENT. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 13,000.
Fuel system, Diesel, Mar 21, 2008
THE VEHICLE TENDS TO LAG OR STALL DURING NORMAL DRIVING TIMES. IF YOU ACCELERATE THEN LET OFF THE GAS, THEN TRY TO ACCELERATE AGAIN, THE CAR DOES NOT RESPOND. IT IS LIKE THERE IS A DEAD PEDAL. IT TAKES ROUGHLY A SECOND FOR THE CAR TO RESPOND, WHICH ISN'T THAT LONG UNTIL YOU CONSIDER AT NORMAL IN-TOWN SPEEDS, YOU CAN GO ALMOST 100 FEET IN A SECOND. JUST ENOUGH TIME TO GET PLOWED IN TO! *TR

THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH THE 2007 WK CRD THAT HAVE REPORTED THAT THEIR VEHICLE HAS DIED ON THEM WHILE DRIVING. READING ABOUT THIS ON JEEP FORUM, I DISCOVERED THAT THERE IS A TSB RELATED TO A FAULTY CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR ON WK JEEPS THAT WERE BUILT BEFORE JUNE 12TH, 2007. MY JEEP WAS BUILT IN APRIL, 2007. WHILE MY JEEP HAS NOT STALLED, IT IS MY WIFE'S VEHICLE AND SHE IS FREQUENTLY TRANSPORTING OUR TWO CHILDREN. THE TSB CALLS FOR CHECKING AND REPLACING THE SENSOR IF IT FAILS, BUT I DO NOT FIND THIS TO BE ACCEPTABLE. IF THE VEHICLE WERE TO JUST DIE WHILE THEY WERE GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURIES TO MY WIFE AND KIDS. I BELIEVE THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD DO A RECALL TO REPLACE THIS SENSOR BEFORE ANYONE GETS HURT. *TR

JEEP DISCONTINUED AUTOMATIC HEADLAMP LEVEL POSITION SYSTEM DURING EARLY OF 2007 WITHOUT EXPLAINING. EVERYTIME, I TOW AND THEN HEADLAMP HAD BLINDED SEVERAL INCOMING VEHICLES. IT WAS IRRESPONSIBLE FOR CHRYSLER DO THAT SITUATION. I WAS TOLD DUE SHORTAGE OF PARTS AND THEY DECIDED TO RESOLVE THE SITUATION BY DISCONTINUED FOR A TEMPORARY BASIS. I FEEL THEY SHOULD PUT THE SYSTEM BACK ON 2007 MODELS FOR SAFETY PURPOSE DURING TOWING. *TR

I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM A 5 STAR DEALERSHIP IN ANTIOCH AT AN AUCTION. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR ABOUT A MONTH IT WOULD REFUSE TO START. THERE WOULD BE TIMES WHEN I WOULD STOP AND TURN MY CAR OFF AND THEN THE ENGINE WOULD NOT WORK. SOMETIMES I WOULD BE PUT IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION AND IT HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 8 TIMES. EACH TIME IT HAPPENS I CALL THE 800 NUMBER AND HAVE JEEP TOW MY CAR, WHICH IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, TO THE NEAREST JEEP DEALERSHIP. EACH TIME IT HAS BEEN THERE THEY HAVE CHANGED MODULE IN THE ENGINE AND WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION. THE ENGINE HAS BEEN TAKEN APART AND STILL THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY IN THE REPAIR SHOP AGAIN AND IT HAS BEEN EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. I BROUGHT UP LEMON LAW, HOWEVER, THEY TELL ME THAT SINCE I AM THE SECOND OWNER THIS CLAUSE DOES NOT APPLY. *TR
