ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS THROUGHOUT 2015 THE VEHICLE HAS FAILED TO SHIFT INTO PARK, DRIVE AND OR REVERSE WHEN THE SHIFT LEVER WAS ACTUATED TO SELECT THOSE GEARS ! IF YOU DO NOT PAY PARTICULARLY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE INDICATORS YOU DO NOT REALISE THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN THE SELECTED GEAR AND WILL ROLL OFF OR MOVE IN AN UNINTENDED DIRECTION . NEEDLESS TO SAY MY WIFE AND I CONSIDER THIS DEFECT TO BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND FEEL IT NEEDS IMMEDIATE REMEDY BY THE MANUFACTURER .

TODAY, WITH A DRY STREET AND SNEAKERS, VEHICLE BEGAN TO REV. I ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT INTO PARK TO AVOID LURCHING FORWARD BUT FAILED TO DO SO IN TIME. WHEN VEHICLE REVS, I HOLD ONTO STEERING WHEEL AND PRESS BRAKE WITH ALL MY STRENGTH BUT UNABLE TO PREVENT THE FORWARD MOVEMENT. *TR

THE 2015 I HAD JUST PURCHASED WITH THE V-6 AND 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION DUE TO MY 2014 DODGE DURANGO WITH THE SAME ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION BEING BOUGHT BACK BY CHRYSLER, IS EXHIBITING THE SAME UNSAFE SHIFTING AND STALLING CONDITIONS. *TR

ON DECEMBER 5, 2014, I ACCEPTED DELIVERY OF A NEW 2015 MODEL YEAR JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND 4X4, EQUIPPED WITH AN 8-SPEED PADDLE-SHIFT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND ?KEYLESS ENTER ?N GO.? ON DECEMBER 12, 2014, I WAS TRAVELLING WITH A FRIEND. WHEN WE REACHED OUR DESTINATION, I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE PAVED STREET, PLACED THE VEHICLE IN ?PARK,? PRESSED THE ?ON OFF? BUTTON TO SHUTOFF THE ENGINE, AND EXITED THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE DRIVER?S DOOR. THE PASSENGER HAD EXITED THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR, AND WAS COMING AROUND THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. (IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT NEITHER I NOR MY PASSENGER HAD TO ?UNLOCK? OUR DOORS TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, CONFIRMING I HAD PLACED THE VEHICLE IN ?PARK.?) AS SHE APPROACHED THE LEFT REAR OF THE VEHICLE, SHE REMARKED THAT I HAD NOT SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. AS I REPLIED, ?YES, I DID,? I NOTICED EXHAUST COMING FROM THE VEHICLE?S TAILPIPE. I RETURNED TO THE DRIVER?S DOOR, OPENED THE DOOR, REACHED IN AND PRESSED THE ?ON OFF? BUTTON 2-3 TIMES; THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. AS I WAS PRESSING THE ?ON OFF? BUTTON I BELIEVE I HEARD THE ENGINE ?REV? AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TRAVELLING IN REVERSE. I WAS CAUGHT BETWEEN THE OPEN DRIVER?S DOOR AND THE VEHICLE AND DRUG ALONG. I REACHED IN AND GRABBED THE STEERING WHEEL IN AN ATTEMPT TO PULL MYSELF IN AND GAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS UNABLE, AND FINALLY LET GO OF THE WHEEL AND DROPPED INTO THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. AS THE VEHICLE PROCEEDED ACROSS THE INTERSECTION IT BACKED INTO A WOODEN FENCE WHERE IT CAME TO REST, IDLING. A RESPONDING SHERIFF?S DEPUTY ARRIVED ON THE SCENE, AND HE TOLD ME HE WAS UNABLE TO PLACE THE VEHICLE INTO ?PARK.? I SUSTAINED SOFT TISSUE INJURIES TO MY LEG(S).....UPDATED 04/25/16 *BF *CN

I RETURNED THIS JEEP TWICE TO DEALER LETTING KNOW THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD A HARD BANG BETWEEN SHIFTING, THEY CONTINUE TO SAY THAT THIS NORMAL.THE SERVICE MANAGER SAYS IT BECAUSE OF THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM, I TOLD THEM THAT I HAVE DRIVING FOR OVER FORTY YEARS AND HAVE HEARD OF SUCH THING AND THIS SOUNDS MORE LIKE A TORQUE CONVERTER ISSUE NOT A COMPUTER, NEEDLESS TO SAY THEY CONTINUE TO SAY NOTHING IS WRONG. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF SCHEDULING ANOTHER APPOINTMENT BECAUSE IT CONTINUES TO GET WORSE. *JS

I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SUMMIT IN NOV OF 2014 AND RANDOMLY ITS RADIO WILL STATE THAT IS HAS AN "IP ADDRESS CONFLICT" WHEN THIS OCCURS WHATEVER SETTING THE RADIO WAS ON CANNOT BE CHANGED. THIS ISSUE CAUSES THE HEATER TO BECOME UNRESPONSIVE, IF THE HEATED SEATS ARE TURNED ON THEY CANNOT BE TURNED OFF, AND GENERAL UNRESPONSIVENESS OF ALL SYSTEMS CONTROLLED BY THE RADIO. IF YOU TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE PROBLEM REMAINS FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES UNTIL THE RADIO DECIDES TO RESET ITSELF. THIS ISSUE COULD BE LIFE THREATENING IN COLDER CLIMATES WHEN THE HEATER IS A NECESSITY BUT CANNOT BE OPERATED, ALSO THE DISCOMFORT FROM THE HEATED SEATS WHEN THEY CANT BE TURNED OFF MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO CONTINUE DRIVING. I HAVE NOTIFIED CHRYSLER OF THE ISSUE AND HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS INFORMED THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS COMPLAINT BUT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT UNTIL JEEP DECIDES TO PUT OUT A FIX FOR THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS NOW AND NO FIX FROM JEEP IS IN SIGHT. I HAVE VIDEOD THE ISSUE WITH MY CELL PHONE AND TRIED TO SEND THE VIDEO TO CHRYSLER. TO WHICH THEIR RESPONSE IS THAT THEY HAVE NO WAY TO RECEIVE THE VIDEO FROM ME THEREFORE I AM LEFT WITH THE SAME ISSUE OF, IF THEY CANT VERIFY THE PROBLEM THEN IT DOESN'T EXIST EVEN THOUGH I OFFERED VIDEO PROOF. *TR

I PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE 11/8/2014. SINCE THEN HERE IS AN ONGOING, HIGH PITCHED NOISE UPON ACCELERATION FROM ZERO TO ANY CRUISING SPEED. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO 3 DIFFERENT JEEP DEALERS FOR THIS COMPLAINT AND OTHERS. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENTS SAY IT IS DUE TO THE 9 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. ONE DEALER TRIED TO BLAME IT ON MY PLASTIC SUNGLASSES IN THE OVERHEAD STORAGE COMPARTMENT. ONE DEALER REPORTED TO ME THAT THE SAME NOISE WAS HEARD ON 2 BRAND NEW VEHICLES JUST DELIVERED TO THEM. I ALSO HAVE ONGOING ELECTRICAL ISSUES - STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS REVERSE SIDES LEFT TO RIGHT, RIGHT TO LEFT FOR AUDIO CONTROLS, THE RADIO RANDOMLY STARTS SWITCHING CHANNELS, AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM SENSORS TURNS ON TO ENABLE MODE, BUT IN THIS MODE THE HIGH BEAMS DO NOT DIM. THIS FUNCTION WORKED INITIALLY, THEN IT DIDN'T AND ONE DEALER SAID IT LOST IT'S PROGRAM SO THEY RESET IT. ANOTHER DEALER SAID THE SENSOR IS NOT WORKING. I WILL HAVE IT LOOKED AT AGAIN AT MY NEXT SERVICE APPOINTMENT. THE PHONE CALL/PHONE CALL CANCEL BUTTONS ALSO REVERSE FUNCTION. THE FUEL TAKE DOOR RANDOMLY POPS OPEN. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING, WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED AT MY WORK OR HOME. I HAVE HAD THIS REPAIRED ONCE. IT STILL CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. THE JEEP WILL RANDOMLY LURCH FORWARD WHILE STOPPED, BRAKES ENGAGED AND VEHICLE IS RUNNING - AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN.

WHEN MOVING THE GEAR SHIFT ALL THE UP FROM DRIVE TO PARK THE CAR IS NOT ALWAYS IN PARK BUT REVERSE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE CAR WILL BEGIN MOVING BACKWARD WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OF THE BRAKE. IT SEEMS LIKE THE COMPUTER IS NOT QUICK ENOUGH TO RECOGNIZE THE MOVEMENT OF THE SHIFTER. VERY DANGEROUS BUT NOW I AM AWARE OF IT. *TR

PRIOR TO RECEIVING THE SAFETY RECALL LETTER IN 2014 MY JEEP STARTED HAVING HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS WHERE I WILL BE DRIVING AND MY LIGHTS WILL GO OFF. THE DASHBOARD WILL LIGHT UP LIKE THE 4TH OF JULY AND CYCLE THROUGH LIKE I JUST STARTED THE VEHICLE. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS NOT TO MENTION FRIGHTENING. SO IMAGINE DRIVING WITHOUT HEADLIGHTS; IMAGINE DRIVING BEHIND OR IN FRONT OF MY VEHICLE AND WONDERING WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL LETTER FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH ON SEPTEMBER 3RD 2014 AND THE PART IS STILL UNAVAILABLE!!! THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AND I WANT TO KNOW WHY THESE PARTS ARE NOT BEING BUILT AND REPLACED. WHY BUILD NEW VEHICLES IF THE COMPANY CANNOT BUILD REPLACEMENT PARTS; TAKE CARE OF YOUR CURRENT LOYAL JEEP CUSTOMERS FIRST!

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WHILE USING THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY APPLY THE BRAKES WHEN THE PATH IS CLEAR IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. IT WOULD APPEAR LARGE OBJECTS SUCH AS A JERSEY BARRIER (COMMON IN WA) THE LEFT AND LARGE SLOWING TRAFFIC (A POTENTIAL DANGER) TO THE RIGHT WILL TRIGGER THE INAPPROPRIATE ACTION AND RESULTS IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO VEHICLES BEHIND! THE SITUATION THAT CAUSES THE PROBLEM IS NOT EASY TO REPRODUCE, HENCE ITS SURPRISE!
