2015 JEEP CHEROKEE Structurebody Problems

After learning of the recall for the lift gate module because of water intrusions of multiple points. The wiring harness to the lift gate module was serverly corroded and had to be replaced. The original fix, without the corrosion on the harness, was the place a piece of plastic over the module. That recall and fix did nothing to address the issues of multiple points of water intrusions. From body seems, the seal around the hatch, and around the tail light(s). There is more than one harness, and more than one module in the tire well. The multiple water leaks, that can and have affected an electrical component the was deemed as being a potential to start a fire, and none of the others in there are. There needs to be a recall on the water leaks, from their poor design! I have saw first hand how badly the harness...

My 2015 Jeep Cherokee started having strange electrical issues. Sometimes the automatic lift gate would not open or close. Sometimes the parking brake would engage and not release. At times the parking brake would engage and I would not be able to drive the car. It would engage within seconds of starting to drive the car, leaving the car lurching forward or unable to move (in the middle of the street). I noticed there seemed to be water leaking into the car around the back right near the power lift gate. I managed to disengage the emergency brake to drive the car to the mechanic. The mechanic could not get the brake released and had to tow the car to an electrical specialist. I paid around $2000 for a new harness for the park break as well as other issues related to the water damage corroding the electrical equipment at...

Was driving home for lunch and stopped at traffic light. Parking brake self-engaged and would not release. I could not move the car in either direction. Repeated attempted to get parking brake to release by pushing/pulling on switch. Finally turned off car (sitting in moving traffic) and when I restarted the brake released. Was able to get car home and parked. Called my regular mechanic and got it in yesterday, but again brake wouldn't release (it had not been set) without turning car off and on. When my repair shop took the components apart, it revealed that water had leaked down into the computer system that controls the parking brakes (had various flashing lights on dash -- odometer/stop/start signal, etc.) and damaged the circuitry. The repair shop called to explain this problem and noted that NHTSA had begun and investigation into this problem in July and had about 80 cases...

Looked into the spare tire compartment and found standing water in the compartment and in one of the side trays. No evidence of water anywhere else. Tire dealer took the compartment a part and could not find evidence of leaking anywhere else. Ran water to make sure the sunroof drains were not clogged. They were not. Checked all window sills and hatch sill, no leaks. Tech looked for any recall. There is a recall R67 for my year of Jeep and NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V826. Called 2 dealers and said there was no recall for my Jeep. The information on the recall is exactly how my leak is happening. I called the MOPAR recall line and they said the same thing as the dealers. The recall says "A short circuit in the module increases the risk of a fire." MOPAR said to go to a dealer and have them check...

WATER IS LEAKING INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE FROM AN UNKNOWN LOCATION WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE FOR A WHILE CAUSING THE CARPET TO BECOME MOLDED, WHICH IS HARMFUL TO BREATH. NOTICE A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING SAME ISSUES WITH NOT RECALL BEING DONE. THIS COULD ALSO CAUSE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WHICH WILL LEAD TO A FIRE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER WAS LEAKING INTO THE VEHICLE NEAR THE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE PEDAL. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO KEY CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM - TOBEY AUTO GROUP (2020 N DETROIT ST, XENIA, OH 45385; (937) 347-5155) WHO SEALED THE LOCATION WHERE THE LEAK WAS COMING FROM. THE CONTACT STATED ABOUT 5 MONTHS LATER, AT APPROXIMATELY 36,000 MILES, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERS WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE THERMOSTAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY A CERTIFIED MECHANIC, NOT THE DEALER. THE CONTACT THEN STATED THAT ABOUT 7 MONTHS LATER AT APPROXIMATELY 38,000 MILES, THE VEHICLE STALLED AT A STOP LIGHT WITH THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ALSO DISPLAYED THE MESSAGE TO SERVICE THE TRANSMISSION. THE CONTACT CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER HAD COME IN CONTACT WITH THE ELECTRICAL ELEMENTS WITH THE LIFTGATE. THE VEHICLE WAS AT THE DEALER DAYTON ANDREWS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE (2388 GULF TO BAY BLVD, CLEARWATER, FL 33765 727-799-4539) AND AS THEY WERE DIAGNOSING THE ISSUE WITH THE LIFTGATE MALFUNCTION THE VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE DEALER PUT OUT THE FIRE AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. NO POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT NOTED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE BACK IN 2015. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE AND WAS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER. THE CONTACT'S INSURANCE COMPANY WAS TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALER NEXT WEEK. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CALLED BY THE CONTACT YET. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,249.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY WHEN ANOTHER DRIVER ALERTED ME THERE WAS A SMALL FIRE COMING FROM UNDER MY CAR. I PULLED OVER INTO AN EMPTY LOT AND WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR I SAW FLAMES FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. I STEPPED BACK AND WITHIN MINUTES THE ENTIRE FRONT ENGINE WAS CONSUMED WITH FLAMES.

LIFTGATE OPERATES INTERMITTENTLY. IT WILL GET TO THE POINT IF IT OPENS THEN IT WILL NOT CLOSE AND LATCH. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN PARK DIDN'T MATTER IF THE ENGINE WAS ON OR OFF.

ENTERING HWY 45 MPH . HOOD LATCH LETS'S GO AND HOOD FLYS UP AND CRASHES THE WINDSHIELD AND DENTS THE ROOF. SAFETY LATCH DIDN'T HOLD IT LIKE IT SHOULD NO THE OIL HAD NOT JUST BEEN CHECKED OR CHANGED.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON RELATED TO THERMOSTAT LIFTGATE HAS BEEN LEAKING SINCE THE BEGINNING TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING OR DRAGGING CONSTANTLY

LIFTGATE WILL NOT STAY UP WHEN OPENED. VEHICLE WAS PARKED, AND THE IGNITION WAS OFF. I OPENED THE LIFTGATE TO GET ITEMS OUT OF BACK OF VEHICLE, AND IT CLOSED, HITTING ME IN THE BACK. TRIED TO OPEN ONCE MORE, AND IT CLOSED AGAIN.

THE POWER LIFTGATE FREQUENTLY DOES NOT CLOSE, AND SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT OPEN. WHEN IT FAILS, THE TAILGATE CAN COME OPEN WHILE WE ARE DRIVING. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. THEY TOLD US TO PULL THE FUSE THAT OPERATES THE LIFTGATE AND THAT WILL RESET IT. THE JEEP WAS UNDER WARRANTY WHEN WE STARTED HAVING THIS PROBLEM. IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES AND NOW THE CAR HAS 60000 MILES.

COMMAND VIEW DUAL-PANE PANORAMIC SUNROOF. IS EXTREMELY NOISY WHEN DRIVING. WAS REAFFIXED OR REINSTALLED BY DEALERSHIP AND NOW NOISIER THAN BEFORE. FAULTY AIR BAG WAS REPLACED AT SAME TIME AS HORN WAS NOT WORKING ALSO ??

HATCH DOOR RANDOMLY FAILS TO LATCH WHEN CLOSING. RECYCLE OF START/LOCK/PARK/ENGAGE DOES NOT CHANGE ANYTHING. CAN MANUALLY CLOSE HATCH BUT WILL NOT LOCK/ENGAGE. HATCH IS ELECTRIC, POCKET REMOTE, BUTTON ON DOOR AND BUTTON ON DASH WILL NOT RECYCLE THE LOCK TO ENGAGE. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT PARKING LOT, OCCURRED AFTER LOADING AND THEN TRYING TO CLOSE DOOR WITH REMOTE.

TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY I 94 AT 70MPH 5PM JAN 10TH, 2018, CAME INTO CONTACT WITH VEHICLE WHILE MERGING INTO CENTER LANE. HIS CAR FORCES MINE INTO A SPIN, I CRASHED HEAD ON INTO THE CONCRETE BARRIER/WALL SEPARATING THE EAST AND WEST BOUND LANES. NONE OF THE AIRBAGS IN THE ENTIRE VEHICLE DEPLOYED. NEITHER THE DRIVER, PASSENGER OR SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I SURVIVED BUT HAD TWO BREAKS IN THE STERNAL CHEST PLATE, A FRACTURED RIGHT RIB AND BROKEN LEFT WRIST REQUIRING SURGERY RESULTING IN SCREWS AND PLATES INSTALLED. MEDICAL BILLS OVER $80K I WAS WEARING MY SEATBELT THE ENTIRE TIME. THAT DAY THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR AND APPROX 40-45 DEGREES. THROUGH THE DEALER, I CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURERS CUSTOMER SERVICE WHICH DIRECTED ME TO THEIR FORENSIC TEAM SO THEY COULD OBTAIN THE BLACK BOX IN THE VEHICLE AND ACCESS TO THE CAR. I HAVE SERIOUS CONCERNS REGARDING NOT ONLY MY SAFETY...

WHILE FLAT-TOWING OUR JEEP CHEROKEE BEHIND OUR MOTORHOME DOWN A HIGHWAY AT 60MPH, WE WENT OVER A MINOR BUMP IN THE ROAD, AND THE JEEP STARTED TO VIOLENTLY WOBBLE/SHAKE (VISIBLE IN REAR CAMERA OF THE RV) WHICH WAS SHAKING/TORQUING THE ENTIRE RV BACK AND FORTH UNCONTROLLABLY. WE HAD TO SLOW & COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY IN ORDER FOR THE WOBBLING TO STOP. WE IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TO SHOULDER OF HIGHWAY, TO FIND THE CORNER OF THE BUMPER RIPPED OFF, AND THE TOW ANCHOR BENT SIDEWAYS (FROM THE WHIPPING ACTION OF THE JEEP). WE UNHOOKED THE JEEP (NO LONGER TOWABLE) AND DROVE OFF THE HIGHWAY AND DIRECTLY TO A JEEP DEALER. THE JEEP DEALER ASSESSED THE DAMAGE FROM THE WOBBLE (TORN FRONT BUMPER, BENT TOW CONNECTOR, AND CRACKED FRONT SUB FRAME). WE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THIS WOBBLE TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE TO...

THE JEEP IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD AND THE SEAMS FOR THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR ARE NOT SEALED ALL THE WAY ACCORDING TO A JEEP DEALER SERVICE DIAGNOSTIC. THIS IS CAUSING WATER TO LEAK ON TO MY FLOOR AND UNDER THE CARPET, SOAKING IT WITH A STRONG POTENTIAL FOR MOLD/MILDEW. THIS HAS TO BE A DEFECT BECAUSE THERE IS NO WAY WEAR AND TEAR IS THE CAUSE. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR ONE YEAR.

JAN 7 MY SON HAD HEAD ON CRASH WITH DODGE HEMI TRUCK. THE TRUCK WAS TOTALED AND CAR WAS 10 GRAND IN DAMAGE, MY CAR AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY TROOPER AND OTHER PERSON IN CRASH WAS SHOCKED. AUTO BODY SHOP INSTRUCTED ME TO CONTACT CHRYSLER, AND THEY CAME SAID NORMAL THE TRANS SENSOR HAS BEEN MAJOR ISSUE NOW I AM WORRIED THIS SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE ALSO AND NO ONE WILL LISTEN. I ACTUALLY TYPED A LONGER DESCRIPTION 2 OTHER TIMES AND YOUR SITE DELETED IT IF THIS GOES THRU I WILL TYPE THE DETAILS AGAIN *BF *TR

DEALER ACCEPTED AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE RECALL REPAIR BUT DID NOT COMPLETE THE RECALL REPAIR. DEALER CLAIMED THAT JEEP CORPORATE WOULD NOT ALLOW THE DEALER TO MAINTAIN AN INVENTORY OF REQUIRED PARTS, IN THIS CASE A LIFTGATE MODULE. THUS I AM REQUIRED TO RETURN TO THE DEALER FOR A SECOND APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIR FINISHED. I THINK THIS IS UNREASONABLE. SERVICE MANAGER EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS JEEP POLICY. HE IS NOT PERMITTED TO ORDER LIFTGATE MODULES IN ADVANCE SO AS TO HAVE AN INVENTORY. HE EXPLAINED THAT HE IS REQUIRED TO ORDER THEM FOR EACH REPAIR, THUS REQUIRING THE CUSTOMER TO RETURN FOR A SECOND TIME TO HAVE THE REPAIR FINISHED.

THE REAR POWER LIFT GATE WILL NO LATCH TO THE LOCKED POSITION AND IT WILL NOT LIFT. 2016 I HAD THE FCA RECALL R67 REPAIRED. JUNE 1, 2017 I EXPERIENCED MY FIRST ISSUE WITH THE POWER LIFT GATE AND THE DEALERSHIP CLEANED G907 GROUND STRAP. AUGUST 23, 2017 I'M AGAIN EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE REAR LIFT GATE COULD BE OPENED AT ANYTIME DURING VEHICLE MOVEMENT AND DURING A TRAFFIC COLLISION.

MY SON AND I WERE IN FRONT AND SIDE IMPACT CRASH WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE ON 4/24/17 WITH SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE BUT NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IN OUR VEHICLE. ATTACHED ARE A FEW PHOTOS OF BOTH VEHICLES FOR REFERENCE. WE WERE DRIVING A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE AND WERE HIT BY A DRIVER WHO HYDROPLANED IN A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. THE REPORTING OFFICER ESTIMATED MY SPEED AT IMPACT WAS 40 MPH. AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IN THE OTHER VEHICLE BUT NOT IN OURS. CONSIDERING THE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE, FORCE OF IMPACT AND ESTIMATED TRAVEL SPEED AT IMPACT, I FEEL THE JEEP AIRBAGS FAILED FROM A SAFETY STANDPOINT AND WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW TO GO ABOUT INVESTIGATING THIS FURTHER WITH JEEP. AN ACCIDENT REPORT IS AVAILABLE BUT DID NOT UPLOAD DUE TO THE SENSITIVE INFORMATION CONTAINED WITHIN (VIN #'S, NAMES, INSURANCE POLICY NUMBERS, ETC); HOWEVER, THE REPORT CAN BE PROVIDED UNDER SEPARATE COVER IF NEEDED.

CAR HAS ALL SORTS OF TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS FROM SHIFTING CLUNKING SLAMMING INTO GEARS CAR WON'T RECOGNIZE THAT IT'S IN PARK AND WON'T TURN OFF LIFTGATE OPENS AND CLOSES BY ITSELF RECENTLY OPENED AND SMASHED MY GARAGE DOOR IN THE LIFTGATE RADIO WON'T WORK GPS SAYS I'M IN WYOMING

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 50MPH WITH MY TRAILHAWK EDITION JEEP, THE ROOF RAIL BAR RIPPED OUT OF THE ROOF OF THE CAR SENDING MY KAYAK RACK AND 35 POUND KAYAK DOWN THE CENTER OF THE ROAD. CHRYSLER/JEEP STATES THEY ARE NOT LED TO BELIEVE THE INCIDENT WAS A MANUFACTURING RESPONSIBILITY. LIVES COULD HAVE BEEN LOST. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP TRIED TO TELL ME THEY FOUND DOCUMENTATION THAT THE RAILS ARE NOT TO BE USED UNLESS THEY HAVE A MANUFACTURED CROSSBAR WITH A MAXIMUM WEIGHT OF 150 POUNDS. MY KAYAK RACK HAS A CROSSBAR AND THE WEIGHT OF THE RACK WAS MAYBE 15 POUNDS AND THE KAYAK ITSELF WAS 35 POUNDS. THERE WAS NO WHERE IN MY OWNERS MANUAL THAT STATES I CANNOT USE MY ROOF RAILS. ONLY A SAFETY STATEMENT SAYING NOTHING SHOULD BE SCREWED INTO MY ROOF FOR AIRBAG AND SAFETY PURPOSES. EVEN WITH MANUFACTURED CROSSBARS THEY WOULDN'T...

DRIVING ALONG ON A RURAL ROAD, NO TRAFFIC AROUND ME. COMING DOWN A HILL AND OUT OF A CURVE, HIT A SLIGHT BUMP IN THE ROAD WHEN SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED, SOUNDING LIKE A SHOT GUN GOING OFF INSIDE THE CAR. GLASS CAME DOWN ALLL OVER THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. SUNROOF IS VISIBLY PUSHED UP AND OUT OF THE ROOF WITH NO IMPACTS FROM EXTERIOR. DEALER IS TELLING ME THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE FACTORY WARRANTY DESPITE THE FACT THAT THERE WAS NO EXTERNAL FORCE WHICH CAUSED THE DAMAGE. THEY SAY THAT PRESSURE CAN BUILD UP INSIDE THE CAR WHEN THE A/C IS RUNNING AND THIS CAN SOMETIMES HAPPEN, WHICH SEEMS INDICATIVE OF A KNOWN ISSUE. I LOOKED ALL THROUGH THE OWNER'S MANUAL AND FIND NO REFERENCE TO THE POSSIBILITY THIS COULD OCCUR WITH NORMAL USE OF THE A/C.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND UNOCCUPIED, IT BECAME ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE WAITING FOR PARTS FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V393000 (STRUCTURE).

WAS TRAVELING TO WORK AND THERE WAS A CAR AHEAD OF ME. THIS PERSON HAD OUT OF STATE PLATES AND WAS NOT PAYING ATTENTION, SPEEDING UP AND THEN SLOWING DOWN SEVERAL TIME. THE PERSON BEHIND ME AND PASSED BOTH OF US. IN FACT HE WAS THE ONE THE I RAN INTO. THEN WHEN I APPROACHED THE NEXT TOWN TO GET ON THE 4 LANE, THERE IS A TURN OFF THAT EVERYONE USES TO GET TO THE SCHOOL. I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GREEN OUT OF STATE CAR, I THINK HE DID A QUICK LEFT TURN IN FRONT OF ME, AND THEN I HIT THE GUY THAT PASSED BOTH OF US. HE WAS STOPPED WAITING FOR THE CAR AHEAD OF HIM TO TURN. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WAS CHARGED WITH FAILING TO STOP IN AN ASSURED CLEAR DISTANCE. THE SUN WAS BRIGHT AND I SEEN NO BRAKE OR TURN...

I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT LOCATED INSIDE A CONCRETE PARKING STRUCTURE. WHILE CONVERSING WITH OTHERS IN THE CAR, THE ENGINE AUTO SHUTOFF ENGAGED. I THOUGHT THE CARE WAS OFF SO I BEGAN TO EXIT THE CAR. WHEN I LET OFF THE BREAK THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD INTO THE WALL CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT HEADLIGHT AND BUMPER. MY COMPLAINT IS THE AUTO SHUTOFF FEATURE ON MY JEEP SHOULD BE DEFAULT TO THE OFF POSITION AND TURNED ON BY THE OPERATOR. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS INCIDENCES WHERE I ALMOST COLLIDED WITH THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME WHEN I AM AT A STOP LIGHT BEHIND OTHER VEHICLES OR IN PARKING LOTS. THE VEHICLE WILL SHUTOFF AUTOMATICALLY AND WHEN I LET OFF THE BRAKE, OR THE CAR IS STOPPED FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, THE CAR STARTS AND MOVES FORWARD WITHOUT APPLYING THE THROTTLE BECAUSE YOU ARE IN DRIVE. THIS CAUSES...

VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH THE COLLISON AVOIDANCE SYSTEM. ON THE DATE OF THE ACCIDENT THE SYSTEM FAILED TO WORK. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELLING WESTBOUND BETWEEN 5-7 MPH AT A HIGH SCHOOL PARKING LOT, THE COLLISON AVOIDANCE SYSTEM WAS ON, THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE STRUCK THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE SYSTEM DID NOT DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE SUFFERED 3000.00 DOLLARS OF FRONTEND DAMAGE. AFTER VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, OWNER OF VEHICLE CONDUCTED TESTS OF THE COLLISON AVOIDANCE SYSTEM AT 5, 10, AND 15 MPH WITH LARGE OBJECTS (BOXES) PLACED AT MINIMUM OF 100 FEET FROM THE VEHICLE. THE SYSTEM NEVER DEPLOYED AND THE OBJECTS WERE STRUCK. AT THE TIME OF THE TEST JEEP INFORMED OWNER ALL SYSTEMS, INCLUDING WERE FIXED AND FULLY FUNCTIONAL. ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS BETWEEN THE FOLLOWING DATES JUNE 26-JULY 05, 2015 THE COLLISON AVOIDANCE SYSTEM ACTIVATED WITH NO OBJECTIVES IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AT DISTANCE GREATER...

WE WERE DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE, GOING SPEED LIMIT OF 70 MPH, WHEN ALL OF SUDDEN HEARD A LOUD POP, SOUNDED MUCH LIKE GUNSHOT. COULD HEAR THE AIR FLOW. ONCE WE GOT STOPPED ON SIDE OF ROAD, FOUND THE SUNROOF COMPLETELY SHATTERED. WHEN WE CALLED DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD WE WOULD HAVE TO CLAIM ON OUR INSURANCE. CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP SAID WASN'T THEIR FAULT, AND SINCE IT WAS NOT WINDSHIELD HAD TO FILE AGAINST INSURANCE CLAIM AS ACCIDENT. EVEN THOUGH DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING THAT HAD IMPACTED THE GLASS IN SUNROOF CAVITY, NOTHING BUT GLASS. SERVICE MANAGER STATED " MAYBE A BALL OR PINE CONE HIT IT" I ASKED GOING DOWN INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH? THEY REFUSED TO EVEN INVESTIGATE. SO I HAD TO FILE A CLAIM AGAINST INSURANCE AND PAY MY DEDUCTIBLE. SERIOUSLY THE SUNROOF JUST SHATTERED. GLASS WENT EVERYWHERE. HAD TO REPLACE THE INTERIOR OF THE SUNROOF ALSO!

A CAR TURNED LEFT AS I WAS GOING STRAIGHT AND STRUCK ME AT THE FRONT LEFT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE IMPACT BROKE MY TIRED COMPLETELY OFF THE VEHICLE SMASHING BOTH THE FRONT AND THE ENTIRE SIDE OF MY CAR WITH ENOUGH DAMAGE FOR ME TO HAVE TO KICK MY DOOR MULTIPLE TIMES IN ORDER TO EXIT THE CAR. AFTER THE FIRST IMPACT I LOST CONTROL SINCE A TIRE WAS MISSING AND THE VEHICLE HIT A SEMI TRUCK HEAD ON. NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. CAR IS TOTALED AND HAS FRAME DAMAGE. I CONTACTED JEEP AND THEY HAVE SINCE DONE AN INVESTIGATION AND TOLD ME I WAS NOT GOING FAST ENOUGH FOR AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY AND ARE NOW NOT RETURNING MY CALLS. WHEN THE INVESTIGATOR CALLED ME AFTER HE INSPECTED THE VEHICLE HE WAS SHOCKED THAT I SAID THE CAR WAS TOTALED. THE CAR WAS BRAND NEW I HAD IT...

SHORTLY BEFORE REACHING HER DESTINATION, THE DRIVER OF OUR VEHICLE SMELLED AN ODOR, BUT COULDN'T DETERMINE WHAT IT WAS. SHE CONTINUED ONTO HER DESTINATION AS IT WAS JUST UP THE STREET. SHE PARKED THE VEHICLE AND WAS PREPARING TO EXIT. BEFORE SHE COULD EXIT THE VEHICLE, A WITNESS SAW SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. SHE QUICKLY EXITED THE VEHICLE AND SAW THE SMOKE. THE SMOKE THEN TURNED BLACK AND SHE SAW FLAMES. THE VEHICLE THEN BURST INTO FLAMES. *TR

INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES ON THIS JEEP ARE FAULTY AND BREAK WITH ONLY NORMAL USE. I CALLED JEEP AND THEY SAID $400 A DOOR PANEL PLUS LABOR AND THEY CAN'T JUST FIX DOOR HANDLE THEY SAID WHOLE PANEL HAS TO BE REPLACED. THE TWO IN FRONT ARE COMPLETELY BROKE AND BACK TWO HAVE CRACKS. I WENT ONLINE WITH THIS ISSUE AND FOUND OUT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OTHERS LIKE ME IN THIS SITUATION. BECAUSE OF THIS COST IN REPAIRS I FEEL LIKE JEEP HAS PUT ME IN A UNSAFE SITUATION FOR MY FAMILY. THE JEEP IS A SPORT LIMITED AND IS FLAWLESS IN CONDITION, EXCEPT FOR THESE DOOR HANDLES. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE MADE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS STUCK IN THERE JEEP DURING AN ACCIDENT AND CAN'T GET OUT BECAUSE OF A BROKEN DOOR HANDLE.
