NHTSA Complaint #11197227 — 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE

IT BEGAN WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYING ON EVEN AFTER OIL CHANGES, THEN WHEN I WOULD TURN ON THE IGNITION KEY IT WOULD MAKE A TAP TAP SOUND AS THOUGH IT DIDNT HAVE ANY POWER, OR WHILE I WOULD BE AT A COMPLETE STOP WHILE AT A LIGHT IT WOULD SOUND AS THOUGH THE JEEP WAS LOSING POWER AND WAS GOING TO TURN OFF, THEN IT DID TURN OFF ON ME WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN. I HAD THE BATTERY CHECKED BY A FRIEND HE SAID IT WAS READING THAT IT HAS POWER AND THAT THE ALTERNATOR IS GOOD ALSO, THEN FINALLY IT LEFT ME STRANDED AT WT WORK, IT WOULDN'T TURN ON. I HAVE NO ONE TO HELP ME SO I TOOK A CHANCE AND ASKED A STRANGER TO PLEASE CHECK MY CAR, HE GAVE ME A BOOST, IT TOOK 2 MIN TO GET MY JEEP GOING AGAIN..THIS MORNING AT 4:30 AM I WASNT ABLE TO GO TO WORK MY JEEP WOULDN'T TURN ON..SO MY NEIGHBOR TOOK MY TO AUTO PARTS TO BUY A NEW BATTERY, MY JEEP IS 2 YEARS OLD..I'M A SINGLE 52 YEAR OLD FEMALE,I CANT AFFORD TO BE STRANDED OR UNABLE TO GET TO WORK.
