I HAVE TRIED TO START MY CAR SEVERAL TIMES WITH JUST CONTINUOUS CRANKING. I CALLED TWO DIFFERENT JEEP DEALERSHIPS AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS ISSUE BEFORE. YESTERDAY, I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AT 55 MPH WITH MY 5 MONTH OLD IN THE CAR AFTER DAYCARE- AND MY CAR JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AND I ALMOST CRASHED INTO THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME!!!! VERY SCARY. I HAD TO SWERVE TO MISS THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE THE BRAKES AND CAR WERE NOT WORKING- JUST COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I FINALLY GOT IT STARTED AGAIN AND GOT TO A SAFE LOCATION. I THEN HAD IT TOWED. I DID SOME RESEARCH TO FIND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES AND CHRYSLER REFUSES TO DO A RECALL ON THIS. ARE THEY INSANE?!!! WE COULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. IF THE CAR IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY- THE PRICE TO FIX THE ISSUE IS $1300+. I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR IN NOVEMBER OF 2013 BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SAFE FOR ME AND MY NEW BABY. NOW I HAVE TO DISH OUT $1300 BECAUSE OF A FAULTY PART THAT CHRYSLER REFUSES TO FIX? THEY ARE VERY AWARE OF THE TIPM NOT PERFORMING ON THESE MODELS- PLEASE RESEARCH ALL THE FORUMS THAT TALK ABOUT THIS. THERE IS ALREADY LAWSUITS PENDING. PLEASE ADVISE ON WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT. I DO NOT HAVE THIS KIND OF MONEY TO FIX A CAR WITH 39000 MILES ON IT. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A JEEP OR CHRYSLER AGAIN. *TR
Power train, Engine, Jun 11, 2014
WHEN STARTED AND SHIFTED INTO "D" DRIVE MODE, CAR WOULD SELF ENGAGE IN MANUAL GEAR "4" AND THEN HAD NO TRACTION OR ACCELERATION, ONLY REVERSE. TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY DIED AND WOULD AUTOMATICALLY GO INTO MANUAL "4" GEAR ITSELF WHEN PUT INTO "D" DRIVE MODE FROM PARK OR WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD. VERY DANGEROUS AND VERY SCARY. HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER WHO WANTED $1,300 TO REPAIR FAULTY TIPM MODULE AND WOULD NOT COVER UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. CALLED CHRYSLER AND NEGOTIATED IT DOWN TO $100. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE CAR IS PUTTING ITSELF INTO THE WRONG GEAR WHILE MOVING AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OR MOVE IN DRIVE MODE. *TR

AFTER BEING UNABLE TO STOP 3 TIMES WITHIN THE FIRST 3 MINUTES OF LEAVING MY HOUSE I CALLED JEEP ABOUT THE BRAKE RECALL. JEEP NEVER CONTACTED ME TO LET ME KNOW THAT MY JEEP WAS INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. I LET THEM KNOW I NO LONGER FELT SAFE DRIVING THE CAR, AS IT HAD FAULTY BRAKES AND KINDLY REQUESTED A LOANER AS I HAD FAMILY ARRIVING THAT WEEKEND AND WOULD BE DOING A LOT OF TRAVELING. THE SERVICE WRITER LET ME KNOW THAT ACCORDING TO THE RECALL THE JEEP WILL STOP WITH EXCESSIVE FORCE & MAY BE MORE DIFFICULT IN WARMER WEATHER. IT IS CURRENTLY 80 DEGREES IN COLORADO WITH NO SIGN OF COOLING. I INFORMED THE TECHNICIAN THAT THE CAR HAD ALREADY ALMOST CAUSED 3 ACCIDENTS AND I DID NOT FEEL CONFIDENT IN IT'S ABILITY TO STOP IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. HE APOLOGIZED AND INFORMED ME THAT HIS SUPERIORS WOULD NOT ALLOW ME A LOANER BECAUSE BASED ON THE RECALL NOTIFICATION THE CAR WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. IN WHAT WORLD IS A CAR WITH FAULTY FUNCTIONING BRAKES SAFE FOR ITS OWNER OR ANYONE ELSE ON THE ROAD!?! JOHN ELWAY JEEP OF GREELEY, COLORADO WAS THE DEALERSHIP INVOLVED. *TR
