NHTSA Complaint #11019596 — 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE

FOR THE FOURTH TIME, MY 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE LOCKED UP THE PARK BRAKE, AND THE ELECTICAL COMPONENTS ALL BEGIN TO OPERATE SPORATICALLY WITHOUT BEING TURNED ON. THE INSTRUMENT GAUGES ALL START FLASHING, THE WIPERS START SWIPING, THE DISPLAY SCREEN BEGINS FLASHING ON AND OFF, THE PRNDL STARTS FLASHING AND BECOMES UNRESPONSIVE, AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEGINS DISPLAYING MULTIPLE ERROR MESSAGES, AS IF THEY CAR HAS BECOME POSSESSED. THE SCARIEST PART IS WHEN THE PARK BRAKES LOCKS UP, NO MATTER WHAT SPEED YOU ARE TRAVELLING AT. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION TWICE WHEN THE CAR MALFUNCTIONED AND LOCKED UP, AND JUST YESTERDAY WAS SITTING IN A MCDONALD'S DRIVE THROUGH WHEN THE SAME THING HAPPENED. MY WIFE IS NOW TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THIS CAR ANYMORE AFTER FOUR TIMES OF THE SAME ISSUE. OUR FEAR IS THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN ON A CROWDED FREEWAY, AND A SEMI BEHIND US WILL NOT BE ABLE TO AVOID HITTING US BECAUSE OUR PARK BRAKE HAS LOCKED UP. THERE ARE OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS ON THE INTERNET. I CANNOT AFFORD TO JUST TRADE THIS IN FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE...I NEED SOME HELP GETTING THIS RESOLVED SO MY FAMILY ISN'T IN JEOPARDY JUST KEEP DRIVING THIS VEHICLE THE DEALER CANNOT SEEM TO PERMANENTLY FIX.
