NHTSA Complaint #11639600 — 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE

While driving less than 5 MPH in a school parking lot, the vehicle went over a speed bump and the "Service 4WD" light came on. This occurred in November of 2024. It was intermittent at first and then stayed on. At times, note some transient loss of power after this occurred while driving on freeway or on city streets. Took to the Jeep dealer to be evaluated. The vehicle was diagnosed with power transfer unit failure. The vehicle was not repaired because of the significant cost and the vehicle was not under recall. Was going to take to a local transmission repair shop and noted the recall instead that just came through on the vehicle. Have not had a recall before and was unsure if reporting this was required or not.
