2014 JEEP CHEROKEE Electrical System Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO START. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,000.

CHRYSLTER RECALL 3 S55 RECALL REPAIR IS TAKING TOO LONG TO COMPLETE! I'M A HEART PATIENT AND MY WIFE HAS PARKINSON'S AND WE HAVE TO TRAVE OVER A MOUNTAIN PASS TO SEE DOCTORS. WE FEEL UNSAFE IN THIS CAR. WE CAN NOT R]TRADE DUE TO THE LENGTH OF THE RECALL!

BOUGHT THIS CAR USED JANUARY 1, 2016. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD IT FOR A YEAR AND A HALF. GREAT CONDITION, ABOUT 40,000 MILES ON IT, CARFAX CHECKED OUT AND I BOUGHT IT FROM A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP. ON OCTOBER 12, 2016, LEAVING WORK FOR THE DAY, I DROVE ABOUT A BLOCK AND THE CAR SHUT OFF ON ME AS I WAS LEAVING A STOPPED POSITION. I HAD TO PUT ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND HAVE CARS GO AROUND ME UNTIL IT FINALLY TURNED BACK ON AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF PRESSING THE START BUTTON. LUCKILY, ALL THREE TIMES THIS HAPPENED AT A STOP ON CITY STREETS, BUT THERE'S NO WAY OF KNOWING IF THIS WOULD HAPPEN ON THE INTERSTATE. BUT EVEN SITTING STALLED IN THE ROAD PUTS ME AT RISK IF A CAR BEHIND ME WERE TO NOT EXPECT A STOPPED CAR AND CRASH INTO ME. I HAD THIS SAME ISSUE BACK...

THE ENGINE SHUT OFF 11 TIMES WHILE DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY AND IN THE STREETS. TWO OF THEM ALMOST CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING UP HILL AND DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY OVER A SPEED OF 65MPH. THE POWER SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE MOVING AND IT NEEDS TO BE RESTARTED ONCE TO SEVERAL TIMES TO START THE ENGINE. IT GOES FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL TO RENGINE SHUTOFF. IT KEPT HAPPENINGFOR TWO YEARS NOW AND BEFORE THE S55 TRANSAXLE WIRE HARNESS. FREMONT JEEP DEALERSHIP ARE INSISTING THAT IT IS STILL OKAH TO DRIVE EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS INCIDENTS AND EVEN IF THEY DONT HAVE THE PARTS YET FOR THE RECALL. STATED IN THE RECALL INFORMATION "THE LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER COULD CRASH WITHOUT WARNING". I AM VERY AFRAID TO USE THE CAR AND AFRAID FOR MY PASSENGER AS WELL AS FOR OTHER PEOPLE IF EVER THERE WILL BE A MAJOR ACCIDENT THAT...

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS A SHUTDOWN OF THE VEHICLE'S COMPUTER/ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, A LOSS OF ANY STEERING CONTROL, AN IMMEDIATE VEHICLE DECELERATION WITH NO ABILITY TO CORRECT BY ACCELERATING, AND A LOSS OF BRAKING CONTROL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND ENDED UP IN A DITCH ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V5229000 (POWER TRAIN). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.

CAR RANDOMLY STOPS MOVING WHILE DRIVING, SOMETIMES WHILE TURNING A CORNER. SEEMS LIKE IT TURNS ITSELF OFF, BUT LIGHTS ON DASH ARE STILL ON. I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHAT CAUSES IT AND AM HOPING THAT IT WILL BE RESOLVED ONCE THEY HAVE A SOLUTION TO THE CURRENT RECALL FOR THE TRANSAXLE WIRE HARNESS. HAVE BROUGHT IT TO DEALER A FEW TIMES AND THEY KEEP TELLING US IT HAS TO DO WITH THE 20% OIL LIFE. I DON'T SEE HOW THAT WOULD MAKE A CAR TURN OFF. AND WHY WOULD THEY MAKE A CAR THAT NEEDS TO HAVE THE OIL CHANGED BEFORE THE OIL LIFE IS UP OR AT ALL.

ON OCTOBER 10, 2016, I WAS DRIVING ON AN ACCESS ROAD NEXT TO A HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR LOST MOTIVE POWER. I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40MPH AND I DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO PULL OVER FROM THE LANE I WAS IN. MY DASHBOARD KEPT FLASHING "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" AND ALSO TO "PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RE-START." FOR TEN MINUTES, I ATTEMPTED TO RE-START THE VEHICLE AND BEGIN DRIVING AGAIN. EACH TIME I WOULD TRY TO PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, THERE WAS A VERY LOUD RACKET SOUND FROM SHIFTING AND I HAD TO PUT THE CAR BACK IN PARK. FINALLY, ON THE SIXTH ATTEMPT, I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE WITHOUT THE SOUND AND I IMMEDIATELY DROVE MY CAR HOME. I AM DISHEARTENED AS THIS WAS A PURCHASE OF A USED VEHICLE ONLY A FEW DAYS PRIOR, ON OCTOBER 8, 2016, THAT HAD ONLY 30,000 MILES....

VEHICAL HAS LOST POWER 4 TIMES WHILE DRIVING. ALMOST CAUSEING A COLLISION WITH THE VEHICAL BEHIND ME. VEHICAL WAS DIAGNOSED BY PRIVATE MECHANIC DEALERSHIP DOES NOT HAVE ANY AVAILABLE APPOINTMENTS AND PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME TO CORRECT THE RECALL. THIS VEHICAL IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND HAS BEEN REPORTED TO JEEP BUT THEY CANNOT HELP TILL IT IS DIAGNOSED WITH A CERTIFIED JEEP MECHANIC

CAR WILL SLIP INTO NEUTRAL WITH NO WARNING AND THE ENGINE GOES INTO IDLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SIX TIMES INCLUDING WHILE EXITING THE FREEWAY ALMOST CAUSING ME TO BE REAR ENDED. JEEP IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND HAS ISSUED RECALL S55. THEY HAVE NO FIX AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN ONE WILL BE AVAILABLE. THE MOPAR SUPPORT REPS AGREE THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BUT WILL NOT PROVIDE A LOANER OR RENTAL BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW HOW LONG BEFORE A FIX WILL BE AVAILABLE. THIS CAR HAS BECOME VERY SCARY TO DRIVE AND I AM GETTING NO HELP FROM THE DEALER OR FROM JEEP.

ON WEDNESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 24TH, 2016, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE IN TRAFFIC WHEN FOR AN UNKNOWN REASON THE VEHICLE STOPPED DEAD, NO WARNING, NO COASTING TO A STOP, AN IMMEDIATE VERY ABRUPT STOP. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, THE FRONT WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM LOCKED UP, THE VEHICLE WAS UNRESPONSIVE TO ANY DRIVER COMMANDS. MY WIFE HAD TO SEEK ASSISTANCE IN MOVING THE VEHICLE TO A SAFE LOCATION OUT OF THE TRAFFIC LANES. WE SERIOUSLY BELIEVE THAT THIS UNINTENDED AND UNCONTROLLABLE VEHICLE ACTION IS A SAFETY ISSUE INHERENT WITHIN THIS MODEL OF 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE. UPON DIAGNOSIS BY THE LOCAL FCA DEALER, WE WERE INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLES OEM BATTERY FAILED THE LOAD TEST AND WOULD BE REPLACED UNDER THE JEEP FACTORY WARRANTY, BATTERY PART NUMBER BB94R750-AA. THE DEALERS SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES SEEMED TO BE UNCONCERNED WITH WHAT IN OUR OPINION IS A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW WITH...

VEHICLE LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING AND FAILS TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY WHICH POSES A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING ON FREEWAYS WHERE SPEEDS CAN REACH UP TO 70-80MPH. THE VEHICLE WILL ONLY REACH FIRST GEAR AND REACH ONLY A SPEED OF 40 MPH.

MAIN ISSUE IS WITH THE NINE SPEED TRANSMISSION ON OUR 2014 CHEROKEE. WE HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THIS TRANSMISSION FROM THE DAY W BOUGHT CAR. INITIALLY THERE WERE THE BUMPS, BANGS, KNOCKS AND HARD ERRATIC SHIFTING BOTH UP AND DOWN SHIFTING. NOW WITH 20,000+ MILES, AND MANY-MANY TRIPS TO DEALER WE ARE STILL HAVING TO DEAL WITH A SITUATION IN WHICH THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN "FLASHED" TO REMOVE SECOND GEAR ON DOWNSHIFT, THUS HANGING UP IN THIRD, AND CAUSING VEHICLE TO ALMOST STALL OUT WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A SLOW, NON-STOPPING SPEED. THIS HAS CREATED SOME GUT WRENCHING AS WELL SITUATIONS. THE ONLY WAY I HAVE FOUND TO OVERCOME THIS PROBLEM IS TO MANUALLY SHIFT INTO SECOND GEAR - - - AND THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. MY WIFE GENERALLY USES THIS CAR AND DOES NOT REALLY UNDERSTAND THE "MANUAL SHIFTING PART". HOPEFULLY, SHE WON'T GET...

2014 JEEP CHEROKEE, BOUGHT USED IN OCT 2015, WITH 32000 MILES. ON 10 JULY 2016, WHILE DRIVING UNDER 25 MPH ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, SHUT OFF UNEXPECTEDLY, DISPLAYING "SERVICE TRANSMISSION IMMEDIATELY", WITH THE CHECK ENGINE ICON ILLUMINATED. VEHICLE THEN WAS PARKED AND SAT FOR 10 MIN APPROX, THEN STARTED AND DROVE APPROX 1/4 MILE TO HOME, TRANSMISSION LIGHT QUIT, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON. NEXT MORNING NO INDICATION OF ANY ISSUES, AND NO TRACE OF A PROBLEM, BUT NOW SHIFTS SLUGGISHLY INTO 2ND AND 3RD GEARS. WHAT IF THIS HAD HAPPENED ON INTERSTATE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS? ALL WOULD BE DEAD IN VEHICLE!! I LIVE IN BEAVERCREEK OHIO AND JEEP NOW HAS APPROX 49000 MILES ON IT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 TO 70 MPH, MY CAR WOULD GO IN TO SAFE MODE THE MASSAGE SAID. "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" "SERVICE PARK BRAKE" THE ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION LIGHTS CAME ON TO. I HAD TO COAST OVER TO THE BRAKE DOWN LANE. I WOULD TURN THE CAR OFF WAIT FOR 2TO 3 MIN'S THEN RESTART THE CAR. ALL MASSAGES CLEARED BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON.

I HAVE A 2014 JEEP AND EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS GEARS, MOSTLY IF I AM SLOWING DOWN BUT IT ALSO DOES IT WHEN I AM ACCELERATING. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW AND THE DEALER SAYS IT NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT IT KEEPS COMING ON AND OFF I HAVE TOLD THE DEALER ABOUT THIS AND IT HAS TAKEN THEM MONTHS TO FINALLY LISTEN TO ME. THEN I FIND OUT THAT THERE IS AND ELECTRICALL PROBLEM, HONESTLY WHAT ELSE CAN GO WRONG. I MEAN SERIOUSLY 6 RECALLS ALREADY AND I AM SURE THERE IS NO NEED FOR THIS. TO BE QUITE HONEST I WAS TOLD TODAY THAT MY CAR WAS NO SAFE TO DRIVE SUE TO THE ELECTRICAL ISSUE.

NUMEROUS COMPUTER/ELECTRICAL INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH VEHICLE. MOST RECENT EPISODE THE CARE WOULD COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. NO ENGINE, NO LIGHTING, AS IF IT WAS HIT WITH AN ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE. THIS UNFORTUNATELY LOCKS THE STEERING AS WELL. THE KEY FOB IS NON RESPONSIVE.
