2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee Complaint Log

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GEAR SHIFT CONTROL MODULE WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR AT ANY SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000.

THE AUTOMOTIVE OIL CHANGE ASSOCIATION (AOCA) REPRESENTS THE FAST LUBE INDUSTRY, WITH MORE THAN 3,500 LOCATIONS IN NORTH AMERICA, SERVICING MORE TIRES THAN ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION. OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS MEMBERS REPORTED AN INCREASING NUMBER OF PROBLEMS WITH TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEMS (TPMS) ' AND THEY ARE GETTING WORSE. CONVENTIONAL TPMS'S MEASURE TIRE PRESSURE AT THE VALVE AND USE A RADIO FREQUENCY TO TRANSMIT THE DATA TO AN ANTENNA ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE QUALITY OF THESE VALVE STEMS IS SO POOR THAT CAR CARE PROFESSIONALS KNOW - IF THEY CHECK THE TIRE PRESSURE, IT IS LIKELY THE VALVE WILL BREAK AND THEY WILL INCUR THE COST TO REPLACE, ABOUT $110.00 PER UNIT. SPECIFICALLY, THE 2008 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, AND THE 2008 CHEVROLET EQUINOX, HAVE ALUMINUM VALVES STEMS; THESE EASILY CORRODE, BECOME BRITTLE, AND BREAK AT THE TOUCH. THEY ALSO HAVE A PLASTIC CAP. IF THIS PLASTIC CAP IS IMPROPERLY SEATED, OR REPLACED BY AN AFTERMARKET CAP CONTAINING BRASS, OR BRASS THREAD INSERTS, IT LEADS QUICKLY TO GALVANIC CORROSION; THE RESULT- THE CAP FUSES TO THE VALVE STEM. ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE CAP, THE STEM BREAKS. THE DRIVING PUBLIC IS BEING 'TRAINED' TO TRUST THESE MONITORS FOR ACCURATE TIRE PRESSURE. PROPERLY INFLATED TIRES REDUCE THE POTENTIAL FOR LIFE-THREATENING BLOWOUTS, ENHANCE HANDLING, IMPROVE FUEL EFFICIENCY, AND PROLONG TIRE LIFE; LOWERING THE COST OF OWNERSHIP. THESE SYSTEMS ARE TOO FRAGILE TO CONTINUE USING THEM IN PASSENGER VEHICLES WITHOUT ADDRESSING THE DURABILITY. AS THESE SYSTEMS AGE, FAILURE WILL INCREASE 100%. TPMS UNITS ARE SPEC'D OUT BY OEM'S- MANUFACTURED BY SIEMENS VDO (ACQ'D BY CONTINENTAL AG IN MAY '07). AOCA HAS MADE MANY INQUIRIES TO SEE IF THESE UNITS ARE INTENDED TO BE RECALLED OR REDESIGNED'THE RESOUNDING ANSWER IS 'NO'. IF OEM'S DO NOT CHANGE THE SPEC'S TPMS'S WILL CONTINUE TO BE POORLY MADE. AOCA ASKS NHTSA RECALL THESE UNITS TO PROTECT THE CONSUMER, AND PEOPLE MAINTAINING THE TIRES ON VEHICLES. *TR

2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, THROTTLE PROBLEMS. ( AT LOW SPEEDS 5MPH -25MPH) VEHICLE HESITATES SOMETIME WHEN YOU TAKE OFF, SOMETIMES IT JUMPS OFF THE LINE, SOME DAYS YOU GO AROUND A CORNER AND PUSH THE THROTTLE AND IT DON'T DO ANYTHING, THEN IT TAKES OFF REAL QUICKLY. WHEN GOING UP AND DOWN HILLS IT HESITATES OR SURGES AND CHANGES GEARS ABRUPTLY. I TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS COMMON AND DID A COMPUTER RE-FLASH AT NO COST. IT DINT HELP ANYTHING. THERE WERE 2 OTHER JEEPS THERE FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALER WANTS ME TO BRING IT BACK AND LEAVE IT FOR THE DAY SO THEY CAN TRY TO FIX IT. I WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE OVER SOMETHING LIKE THIS. I WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINED AND DIED OVER THE TOYOTA PROBLEMS BEFORE ANYONE INVESTIGATED? ITS A REAL PROBLEM, LOOK AROUND ON SOME OF THE JEEP FORUMS UNDER IDLE OR THROTTLE PROBLEMS. I FOUND ABOUT 100 OTHER COMPLAINS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEMS IM HAVING IN ABOUT 15 MINUTES. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE GEAR WOULD SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE FAILED. THE PART NEEDED TO MAKE THE REPAIR WAS ON BACK ORDER. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, WHILE DRIVING LESS THAN 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AGAIN WITHOUT THE ACTUAL GEAR SHIFTER BEING MOVED. THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS REAR-ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE, WHICH CAUSED MINOR DAMAGES TO HER VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE LESS THAN 20,600.

THE TIRE JACK IS UNSTABLE FOR THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD MINE COLLAPSE AND NOT TALL ENOUGH FOR THE VEHICLE. I WATCHED A MAN ALMOST GET PINNED BY A JACK FAILURE ON A 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. MINE IS A 2007. DOES ANYONE CHECK THIS EQUIPMENT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM A TRIP AND WAS TWO HOURS FROM HOME. I STOPPED AT A FRUIT STAND AND WHEN I GOT BACK IN THE VEHICLE IT WOULD NOT START DESPITE IT CLEARLY NOT BEING A BATTERY PROBLEM. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THIS OCCURRED ON A SATURDAY. ON MONDAY WHEN THEY INSPECTED THE VEHICLE IT STARTED WITH NO PROBLEM. THEY RAN A COMPUTER DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND FOUND NO FAULTS. I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT "ACTED UP AGAIN". TWELVE DAYS LATER IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO DETERMINED THAT THE STARTER MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I FIND IT AMAZING THAT I NEEDED TO WAIT UNTIL THE CAR BROKE DOWN AGAIN IN ORDER TO DETERMINE WHAT WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. CLEARLY THERE WERE ISSUES AND SIMPLY RUNNING A COMPUTER TEST WAS NOT SUFFICIENT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. THE GAS PEDAL WOULD NOT ACCELERATE THE CAR. THE CAR HAD TO BE PULLED TO THE SHOULDER AMIDST TRAFFIC AND TURNED OFF, THEN TURNED BACK ON BEFORE THE CAR WOULD ACCELERATE AGAIN. THIS SAME SCENARIO HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE. THIS POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD FOR OUR FAMILY! *TR

I HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE OVER A YEAR AGO FROM FIAT CHRYSLER. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE TURN OFF DUE TO THE IGNITION SWITCH MULTIPLE TIMES. BOTH MY HUSBAND AND MY SON WERE DRIVING THE CAR AT THE TIME. THE ENGINE STOPPED, THE POWER STEERING DID NOT WORK, IT WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON A COUNTRY CURVY ROAD. I DO NOT FEEL I CAN SELL THIS CAR TO SOMEONE ELSE WHO MIGHT POTENTIALLY WRECK DUE TO THIS ISSUE. I AM STILL BEING TOLD THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX THIS VEHICLE.

REGARDING WINDSHIELD CLEARING OF 2002 JEEP AND 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPER DOES NOT CLEAR THE CENTER OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE DEALER SUGGESTED THAT I REPLACE THE WIPER, WHICH I DID WITHOUT SUCCESS. THE AREA THAT DOES NOT CLEAR IS DIRECTLY IN LINE WITH THE DRIVERS VIEW. THE PASSENGER SIDE CLEARS WELL. I CONTACTED A COMPANY THAT REPLACES WINDSHIELDS AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE SPRING TENSION ON THE WIPER ARM. I DID NOT YET REPLACE THE ARE THINKING THAT A NEW ARM WOULD HAVE THE SAME SPRING TENSION. MY DAUGHTERS JEEP ( THE 2002) HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. HOW COULD THIS CONDITION HAVE EXISTED FOR 5 YEARS WITHOUT CORRECTION? IT WOULD SEEM UNLIKELY THAT THESE 2 CARS ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. DO YOU HAVE ANY RECORD OF THIS CONDITION CAUSING ACCIDENTS? *TR

I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE. FIRST IT WAS MY PRND LIGHTS WOULD ALL LIGHT UP AT THE SAME TIME AND MY ACCELERATION WOULD NOT WORK. THEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND GO OFF AGAIN AFTER A FEW STARTS. NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE CODE IS U0404 WHICH I AM TOLD IS THE SHIFTER/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE. WHILE SEARCHING THIS I HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS OF OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, ALL RIGHT AFTER THEIR WARRANTY RAN OUT. I WENT TO THE DEALER WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND IT WAS NOT FOUND NOW THAT I AM 900 MIL;ES PAST WARRANTY THEY KNOW WHAT IT IS. I FEEL IF THIS MANY OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM IT SHOULD BE RECALLED. I COMPLETELY LOST ACCELERATION WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY TWICE AND WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION IN MY 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO STARTED CLUNKING LOUDLY WHEN I SHIFTED FROM REVERSE INTO DRIVE. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AFTER THIS OCCURS. THE PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT, THEN, ONE DAY I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN IT TURNED GREEN, I STEPPED ON THE GAS PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. IT ACTED AS IF WAS IN PARK. I SHIFTED IT TO PARK AND BACK INTO DRIVE SEVERAL TIMES AND SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE SLAMMED INTO GEAR LUNGED FORWARD INTO TRAFFIC. I REPORTED THIS PROBLEM TO MY DEALERSHIP (THE VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY) WHO TOLD ME NO CODES REGISTERED IN RELATION TO THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT HAVING BEEN ON AND THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO ME AND TWO DAYS LATER THE SAME TRANSMISSION CLUNKING BEGAN AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I LEFT A RED LIGHT TODAY AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT FROM FIRST GEAR INTO SECOND. FINALLY, IT SHIFTED, SLAMMING INTO GEAR, WITH A LOUD, HARD CLUNK THAT SHOT MY VEHICLE SEVERAL FEET AHEAD. I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND WOULD HAVE HAD AN ACCIDENT IF A CAR HAD BEEN AHEAD OF ME. IT'S BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP WHO CLAIMS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG. THE CAR HAS ONLY 21,000 MILES ON IT. CLEARLY, THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG AND I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY AND CANNOT SIMPLY GO BUY ANOTHER VEHICLE. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING A STALLING PROBLEM FOR A COUPLE MONTHS NOW. WHEN I AM AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT, MY CAR WILL START TO IDLE VERY LOW AND THEN COMPLETELY DIE. IT WILL RESTART WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK AND TURN THE KEY AGAIN. THE NEXT TIME I TRY TO START MY CAR AFTER IT STALLS, IT USUALLY TAKES ABOUT 10 SECONDS FOR IT TO START WHEN TURNING THE KEY. MY CAR HAS DONE THIS 5 TIMES NOW. IT HAPPENS ABOUT ONCE A WEEK. MY CAR ALSO IDLES VERY LOW, VERY OFTEN WHEN I AM STOPPED. IT DOES NOT STALL EVERYTIME THOUGH. EVERYTIME IT HAPPENS I TAKE IT DIRECTLY TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP KEEPS TELLING ME NOTHING IS WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE, AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHY IT WOULD BE DYING WHEN STOPPED. *TR

09/29/2008 JEEP TAKEN TO GARAGE FOR HEAD LIGHT FAILURE NOTHING FOUND. 03/09/2012 TO 11/07/2012 ALL INDICATOR LIGHT FLASH EXTERIOR LIGHTS FLASH. BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES FOR NUMEROUS DAYS AT A TIME THEY CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG STILL HAVING THIS PROBLEM. REALLY NOT GOOD WHEN IT IS DARK OUT AND YOU DON'T HAVE HEADLIGHTS. AT 15,000 AND 35,000 I HAD TO HAVE THE SHIFT MODULAR REPLACED BECAUSE ALL THE CAR WOULD BASICALLY GO IN TO NEUTRAL WHEN BEING DRIVEN. I WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THREE DAYS THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM AND SENT IT HOME ONLY TO HAVE TO RETURN 2 DAYS LATER WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. AS I HAVE FOUND MANY PEOPLE ON LINE WITH THESE SAME ISSUES MAKES YOU WONDER FIRST WHY THESE ISSUES CAN'T SEEM TO BE FIXED, SECOND WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. IT IS TRULY A MIRACLE THAT NO ONE I HAVE HEARD OF HAS BEEN INJURED OR KILLED BECAUSE OF THESE DEFECTS. WHEN THE JEEP IS WORKING I LOVE IT. IF I HAD A HOPE AND A PRAY OF GETTING A NEW VEHICLE I WOULD TRADE IN MY PAID OFF JEEP IN A HEART BEAT SO THAT I WOULDN'T HAVE TO CONSTANTLY WORRY THAT IT STOP RUNNING OR THAT I WILL BE DRIVING BLIND IN THE DARK. SADLY I DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH ON THE OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES I.E. WINDOW THAT HAD TO BE FIXED REMOTE KEYLESS ISSUES IT IS SAD THAT THE COMPANY DOESN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THESE THINGS THIS WILL BE MY LAST JEEP. I FEEL THAT THESE PROBLEMS ARE DANGEROUS FOR ME, MY FAMILY AND ANYONE THAT IS ON THE ROAD WITH ME AND OTHER JEEP OWNER WITH THE SAME ISSUES.

THE ENGINE STALLS WHILE AT LOW SPEEDS SHORTLY AFTER START-UP. NO ENGINE DIAGNOSTIC LIGHTS ARE PRESENT TO AID IN THE TROUBLESHOOTING. THE CAR HAS STALLED UNDER THE LOW SPEED CONDITIONS 5 TIMES SINCE PURCHASE. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS 27,000 MILES. *TR

DEALER DUPLICATED THE PROBLEM ON ALL UNITS IN THEIR STOCK. CHRYSLER ACKNOWLEDGES THE PROBLEM BUT IS DOING NOTHING TO CORRECT IT. I SOLD THE VEHICLE LAST MONTH AS I WON'T DRIVE A VEHICLE WITH DEFECTIVE BRAKE LIGHTS. *TR

MY VEHICLE STALLS WITHOUT NOTICE LOSING POWER BUT NOT ACTUALLY SHUTTING OFF. AT OTHER TIMES IT ACTS LIKE IT IS HANGING IN 1ST GEAR. ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS IT HAS NEARLY GOTTEN ME HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR NEARLY REARENDED. I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED OUT 3 TIMES BY THE DEALER AND THEY SAY THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED BY CHRYLER TO FIX PROBLEM. I HAVE A 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. *TR

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

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 FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 13,000.

2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, NEW, 6,000 MILES, STALLED AT STOP LIGHT. *TR

I OWN A 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO, 6 CYL 4X4. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN LOSING POWER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON AN ALMOST DAILY BASIS, USUALLY WHILE NEGOTIATING LEFT HAND CURVES. WHEN THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER, THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT TURNS ON AND THE VEHICLE DECELERATES RAPIDLY. DURING THE POWER LOSS, I CAN PUT THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN INVOLVED IN SEVERAL REAR END CRASHES DUE TO THIS ISSUE, AS IT HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES FOR RELATED ISSUES. ON 03/18/08 THE ABS WIRING HARNESS WAS RE-ROUTED BECAUSE IT WAS RUBBING ON THE LEFT FRONT TIRE. THE SHIFTER MODULE HAS ALSO BEEN REPLACED TWICE, HOWEVER, THE AFOREMENTIONED PROBLEM IS ONGOING. THE LAST TIME THE VEHICLE WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP WAS 09/25/09 AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO COMPUTER CODE FOR THE PROBLEM AND THAT THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIX OR DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT RECREATE IT. I AM AFRAID THAT IF I CONTINUE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE IT IS INEVITABLE THAT I WILL BE INVOLVED IN A COLLISION AS A RESULT OF THIS MECHANICAL FAILURE. I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE THE VEHICLE AND THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN USELESS IN FIXING THE PROBLEM. I AM AT MY WITS END AND I AM GETTING NOWHERE WITH PAPA'S DODGE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED HIS VEHICLE AND LEARNED THAT THERE WERE TWO BRAKE RECALLS RELATED TO HIS VIN. HE WAS UPSET BECAUSE HE WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE RECALLS BY THE MANUFACTURER BEFORE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. THERE HAD BEEN NO FAILURE TO DATE. THE RECALL NUMBERS WERE UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 1,100.

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

ENGINE STALLED WHILE DRIVING, AND THEN WOULD NOT RESTART. FORTUNATELY I WAS GOING SLOWLY APPROACHING A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR THE STALL COULD HAVE LEAD TO A COLLISION. MY 11 MONTH OLD SON WAS WITH ME, AND THEN WE WERE STUCK BLOCKING TRAFFIC AT ONE OF THE BUSIEST INTERSECTIONS IN TOWN. I HAVE HEARD THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE, THE 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE CRD. WE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE (ECM) WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 55,800. *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

MY JEEP HAS STALLED AND LOST POWER, PUTTING ME IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. MY JEEP HAS THE SAME 3L DIESEL ENGINE WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN RECALLED IN NHTSA FOR DODGE SPRINTERS CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER : 07V594000 AND ALL 2007 MERCEDES DIESELS. NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER : 08V006000.

I HAD MADE A LEFT TURN, BEGIN TO ACCELERATE, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, CAR BEGUN TO SHUT DOWN, CAR SLOWED DOWN, UNTIL IT CAME TO A STOP. TOOK CAR TO DEALER, PROBLEM WAS NOT FIXED, CONTINUED TO HAVE SAME PROBLEM OVER NEXT SEVERAL YEARS. I WAS UNAWARE, AND NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE OF RECALL FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. I TURNED THE POWER OFF, WAIT ABOUT 1 MINUTE, STARTED VEHICLE AND IT RAN FINE. DURING THE RIDE, ELECTRICAL PANEL BEGAN TO FLASH, EVERYTHING WAS TURNING ON AND OFF. GAS GAUGE, AND EVERY OTHER GAUGE ON THE PANEL WENT UP AND DOWN. EVERY LIGHT ON THE PANEL FLASHED ON AND OFF. THIS HAS HAPPEN MANY TIMES OVER THE YEARS AS WELL. I RECENTLY TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP IN NOVEMBER 2013, WHO TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FINE ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. JUST IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS I HAVE HAD THIS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, MARCH 2014. WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR, HOW CAN I GET IS FIXED? WHAT DO I DO IF I HAVE A RECALLED VEHICLE? *TR

2007 (PRE AND POST) HAVE REAR TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLES THAT WORK INTERMITTENTLY. JEEP REPLACES(FOR APPROXIMATELY $200) BROKEN TAILLIGHT ASSEMBLIES WITH NEW UNITS HAVING THE SAME DEFECT. THEIR DESIGN HAPPENS TO FAIL AROUND THE 30,000 MILE POINT (BY INTENTION?). JEEP WILL NOT RETURN BROKEN PARTS WHEN REQUESTED FOR INSPECTION (THEY DON'T WANT THESE REACHING YOUR OFFICE). LIGHT BULBS ARE NOT THE ISSUE. THIS KNOWN JEEP DEFECT KEEPING THEIR ASSEMBLY LINE RUNNING AT THE EXPENSE/RISK TO JEEP OCCUPANTS OR ANY VEHICLE FOLLOWING A FULL SIZE JEEP. PLUS THEY ARE MAKING MONEY WHILE ENDANGERING OTHERS. DO THE STATISTICS OF JEEPS SHOW THEY ARE REAR-ENDED MORE OFTEN? HOW CONVENIENT IF THIS IS THE CASE AND THE EVIDENCE IS DAMAGED IN THE ACCIDENT. LOOK ON-LINE FOR THE DIALOG OR JUST LOOK AT JEEPS ON THE ROAD AND YOU'LL SEE A BRAKE OR TAIL LIGHT OUT IN A MUCH HIGHER PERCENTAGE THAN ANY OTHER VEHICLE. I NOTICE AN AFTER MARKET LIGHT ASSEMBLY WAS RECALLED (STD. 108), NO AMBER LIGHT. HOW ABOUT A RECALL FOR A LIGHT THAT MAY OR MAY NOT WORK AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT? WHICH IS WORSE? *TR

HAPPENING AT LEAST 2 TO 3 TIMES A WEEK TAKING IN TOMORROW 6/20/09 BECAUSE WAS BOUGHT NEW WITH 18 MILES AND NOW 37,000 MILES ON JEEP ( PASS WARRANTY OF COURSE) TO BE COVERED I WOULD THINK PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC IT WOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE. TALK TO A MECHANIC THAT HAS WORK ON SEVERAL WITH A FLY BUY WIRE ACCELERATION BEING THE PROBLEM. *TR
