2016 JEEP CHEROKEE Electrical System Problems

STARTED HAVING SERVICE SHIFTER CODES AT APPROXIMATELY 30K. WOULD BE REPAIRED & AFTER ABOUT 8 WKS IT WOULD THROW THE SAME CODE. REPEATED THE SAME CYCLE 2 ADTL TIMES. TOOK A TOTAL OF 4 TIMES TILL THE ENTIRE SHIFTER, MODULE & WIRING WERE REPLACED. AT 40K MILES MY JEEP DIED ON ME GOING DOWN A HILL. HAD TO COAST DOWN HILL & FIND A HALFWAY SAFE AREA OFF THE HIGHWAY. I HAD NO ABILITY TO START THE VEHICLE. THE ELECTRONICS WOULD COME ON WHEN I TURNED THE KEY BUT IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER WOULD BE SOLID & THE SERVICE SHIFTER ALERT CAME ON. IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP. THE SERVICE ADVISER WALKED ME THRU HOW TO RESET THE CAR. WAIT FOR 5 MINUTES. TURN THE KEY ON & LET IT CYCLE. TURN THE KEY OFF. REPEAT THE PROCESS 3 X'S TILL IT STARTS. TOOK...

THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SEVERAL ISSUES AT ONE TIME ON 5/16/2017 (MILEAGE 32779). THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, NEW, 5/2016. THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE HAD BEEN COMING ON AND GOING OFF AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT KNOW WHY AND COULD NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT UNLESS IT WAS ON WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THE PROBLEM MAY COME FROM THE BATTERY BEING BAD AND THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE BAD BATTERY. AFTER A CALL TO JEEP CUSTOMER CARE, JEEP AGREED TO PAY TO HAVE THE BATTERY REPLACED BY THE DEALERSHIP AT NO COST TO ME. THIS WAS 7/12/2017 AND THE SHIFTER ISSUE WAS NOTED AGAIN ON THIS SERVICE ORDER. 4/2018, A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN WAS PUT OUT ABOUT THIS ISSUE, BUT I WAS NOT AWARE OF IT UNTIL 12/2019. AFTER RESEARCH AND THE DISCOVERY OF THE TECHNICAL SERVICE...

WHILE IN MOTION: IF THE 2016 JEEP CHEROKEE DRIVES OVER A SLIGHT BUMP, VARIOUS ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WILL LOSE POWER AND A WARNING LIGHT WILL APPEAR ON DASHBOARD SCREEN -- MOST OF THE TIME THE SERVICE BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING WILL DISPLAY; AND OTHER TIMES, THE SCREEN POWER WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. IN ADDITION, WHILE IN MOTION, SOMETIMES THE ENGINE WILL SUDDENLY LOSE ALL POWER, THE STEERING LOCKS UP, DECELERATES AND ALL POWER TO THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF. THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO TURN THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY OFF, WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND START IT AGAIN.

BOTH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM LIGHTS CAME ON. THE VEHICLE REPEATEDLY WOULD SEEM TO GLITCH OUT WHILE OPERATING AT VARYING SPEEDS IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. SEEMS TO LOSE POWER FOR VERY BRIEF SPURTS.

I HAVE OWNED MY VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS AND JUST THE BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR (2020) I HAVE HAD TWO PROBLEMS WITH THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT COMING ON WHILE GOING AT A SPEED OF 55 MPH. BOTH TIMES I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE LIGHT JUST COMES ON AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY SHIFTER PANEL LIGHT UP. IF I TURN THE VEHICLE OFF THEN RIGHT BACK ON THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT COMES ON AND WILL STAY ON FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. I'VE CONTACTED SEVERAL DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THEY TELL ME THEY DONT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. ALL THE LIGHTS LIGHT UP ON SHIFTER. CAR KEEPS SOUNDING LIKE IT'S REVVING ON ITS OWN. AND ALSO CAR KEEPS FEELING LIKE BRAKES TRYING TO SLOW DOWN CAR BY ITSELF, AND THAT HAPPENS SOMETIMES WHILE IT SOUNDS LIKE REVVING AT SAME TIME.

THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. WITH THAT..THE LIGHTS NEXT TO THE PARK, DRIVE, NEUTRAL AND DRIVE LETTERS ALL TURN RED. I'M TAKING IT TO A DEALERSHIP THIS SATURDAY AND I KNOW THAT IT WILL COST ME. I HAD MY TWO KIDS IN THE CAR 1 AND 3 YEARS OLD WHEN IT HAPPENED. MY CAR WAS PARKED OVERNIGHT IN MY GARAGE BECAUSE IT'S BEEN RAINING ALL WEEK AND I DIDN'T WANT TO GET OUT INTO THE RAIN TO LET MY TWO KIDS INSIDE. I DROVE IT ABOUT A MILE DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THIS PROBLEM STARTED. I READ THAT THIS IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING. SOME SAY THE PROBLEM GETS WORSE LIKE THE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND OTHERS SAY THEY HAVE TO KEEP PAYING TO HAVE IT 'FIXED' BUT THE PROBLEM WITH KEEP HAPPENING. ALSO MY VEHICLE HAD...

AT ABOUT 20K MILES, A WARNING ON THE DISPLAY POPPED UP THAT SAYS, "SERVICE SHIFTER" AND ALL OF THE GEAR SHIFT LIGHTS ALL LIT UP. THIS HAPPENED TWO TIMES, ONCE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND ONCE WHILE IT WAS PARKED. AFTER THOSE TWO TIMES, IT STOPPED AND DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL NOW. THE ISSUE HAS RETURNED AT 45K MILES AND IS HAPPENING A LOT. WHEN IT HAPPENS WHILE I'M MOVING, THE ENGINE REVS UP REALLY HIGH. WHEN I'M PARKED AND IT HAPPENS, I HAVE TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON BEFORE I CAN SHIFT INTO GEAR. THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT PROVIDED A SOLUTION.

JEEP BEEN CUTTING OFF ALOT, BUT CAN RECRANK, LIGHTING BOLT COMES UP WHEN DIES, NOW GETTING WORSE AND LIGHTNING BOLT STAYS ON. LOOKING UP WHAT IT MEANS, SHOWS ELECTRONIC THROTTLE. JUST CUTS OFF NO WARNING, REGARDLESS HOW OR EHETE YOU AT DURING DRIVING.

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING APPEARS IN MAIN CONSOLE DISPLAY WHICH REPLACES YOUR DIGITAL SPEED INDICATOR. WILL NOT DISAPPEAR UNTIL YOU STOP AND RESTART CAR. HAPPENS WHILE MOVING. AFTER GOOGLING THE ISSUE APPEARS QUITE A FEW OTHERS HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. IS JUST DISTRACTING IF YOURE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH YOUR CURRENT SPEED SUDDENLY REPLACED WITH A WARNING. AS PER OTHERS ON GOOGLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE.. HAD TO HAVE THE SHIFTER BEZEL AND WIRING HARNESS REPLACED.

'SERVICE SHIFTER' APPEARS ON DASH. ALL LIGHTS LIGHT UP ON SHIFTER PRND

2016 JEEP CHEROKEE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DIFFICULTY WITH STOP/START FEATURE ON VEHICLE. *LD THE CONSUMER WAS ADVISED TO REPLACE BATTERY, THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK. THE CONSUMER WAS ADVISED THE SOFTWARE. NEEDED TO BE UPDATED *JS THE CONSUMER WAS CONCERNED THAT THE CABIN FILTER WAS NOT MENTIONED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THE CONSUMER WAS UNAWARE THAT THE CABIN FILTER EXISTED AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. *JS

TODAY A MESSAGE CAME ON IN MY MESSAGE WINDOW ON THE DASH THAT THE SHIFTER NEEDS TO BE SERVICED AND ALL THE SHIFTER LIGHTS CAME ON ALONG WITH IT. MY CAR HAS ABOUT 60,000 MILES ON IT. I PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW AND HAVE ALREADY HAD 2 RECALLS, BATTERY REPLACEMENT, AND TRANSMISSION THERMOSTAT REPLACED ON IT. IT SUCKS THAT THESE COSTS HAVE HAD TO COME OUT OF MY OWN POCKET BECAUSE MOPAR/ JEEP HAS MADE SUCH A LEMON OF A CAR. I'VE HAD TO HAVE TOWED TWICE SO FAR.

I WAS DRIVING AND THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFT ALL TURN RED. I PULLED OVER TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF DROVE AGAIN AND ALL THE LIGHTS TURN RED AGAIN REPEATED THE PROCESS AND AND IT TURNED ON AGAIN. CALLED THE DEALER THEY NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM LOOKED IT UP AND SAID THAT THE SHIFT NEEDS TO BE INSPECTED BUT THEY SAID IT IS OK TO DRIVE.

ON FEB 6, 2020, I WAS GETTING READY FOR WORK WHEN I NOTICED THAT MY JEEP HAD A MESSAGE APPEAR ON THE DASH BOARD REGARDING SHIFT SHIFTER. I WAS PULLING OUT OF MY APARTMENT COMPLEX WHEN MY CAR STOPPED OUT OF NO WHERE MY CAR STOPPED AND THE MESSAGE APPEAR WHILE STILL ON DRIVE. WHEN I LOOKED OVER THE SHIFT SHIFTER, THE PRND WERE ALL LIGHTEN UP IN RED. I HAS CAUSING TRAFFIC AND HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED.

WE HAVE TAKEN OUR JEEP IN COUNTLESS TIMES SINCE OBTAINING IT BRAND NEW IN 2016 FOR A SERVICE SHIFT ISSUE. THEY REPLACED OUR THERMOSTAT THE FIRST TIME THEN WIRING HARNESS TO THE TRANSMISSION/BCM THE SECOND TIME SINCE THEN THE DEALERSHIP HAS STATED WITH OUT A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NOT TO WORRY ABOUT THIS ISSUE. EVERY TIME IT HAPPENS OUR JEEP HEATS UP PAST 220 DEGREES AND STARTS TO RUN ROUGH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, AN AUDIBLE CHIME WAS HEARD AND A MESSAGE STATING SHIFT TO PARK DISPLAYED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED OR INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. A CASE WAS FILED WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

WHEN I START MY 2016 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE AND PUT IT IN 1 SEC GEARKL ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY SHIFTER LIGHT UP AND STAY LIT. A MESSAGE ON MY DASH BOARD SAYS "SERVICE SHIFTER". I TRIED TURNING THE JEEP OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON BUT ALL THE LIGHTS STILL STAY ON.

SERVICE SHIFTER DASHBOARD MESSAGE AND THE P. R. N. D. LIGHT UP RED OFF AND ON, THREE TIMES SO FAR WITHIN A SIX MONTH PERIOD WHAT DO WE DO? JEEP DEALER AND HEADQUARTERS MAINTAINS NO COMPLAINS HAVE BEING FILED THE PROBLEM HAPPENS DURING CAR MOVING

SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE AND RED LIGHTS LIT BY GEARS ON SHIFT. IN MOTION. STARTING IT UP. ALL THE TIME

ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO WHILE DRIVING THE CAR CHIMED AND THE MESSAGE "SERVICE SHIFTER" APPEARED ON THE SCREEN ALONG WITH ALL LIGHTS NEXT TO SHIFTER TO LIGHT UP RED. THE VEHICLE HAS TO TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED TO RESET. NOW THE SAME THING KEEPS HAPPENING. THIS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE THE OVER THE AIR UPDATE. EXTREMELY IRRITATING AND SCARY THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED THANK GOD I WASN'T IN AN ACCIDENT LIKE OTHER REPORTS HAVE NOTED. JEEP NEEDS TO RECALL THIS ISSUE AND FIX IT!!!

THE CAR DASHBOARD KEEP SAYING SERVICE SHIFTER. THIS HAPPENS AFTER DRIVING ANYTIME ON ALL ROADS AND PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK.

SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING. ALL GEARS ON SHIFTER ARE LIGHT RED. P R N D

SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE APPEARED IN THE CENTER DISPLAY AND IS LOCK IN PLACE, NOT BEING ABLE TO SCROLL THROUGH THE MENUS ANY LONGER. NEXT TO THE SHIFTER ALL LIGHTS FOR SHIFTER POSITION ARE ILLUMINATED AND YOU CANNOT SEE WHICH GEAR THE VEHICLE IS IN ANYMORE FROM LOOKING DOWN AT THE SHIFTER. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES MOSTLY WHILE IN MOTION BUT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHILE STATIONARY. THE MESSAGE INCLUDING ALL OTHER INDICATIONS CAN GO AWAY WITH A FULL SHUTDOWN.

I WAS SENT A RECALL FOR MY NAVIGATION TO UPGRADE, I WAS SENT A FLASH DRIVE FOR THE UPGRADE AND IT DIDNT WORK. I CALLED THE NUMBER ON THE PAPERWORK AND THEY SAID TO HAVE THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP DO THE UPGRADE BECAUSE THE FLASHDIVE WAS NOT WORKING. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULDNT DO THE UPGRADE BUT FOR 400 DOLLARS THEY COULD FIX MY USB PORT SO THEY COULD UPGRADE THE SOFTWARE AND THEY KEPT THE RECALL PAPERWORK SO NOW I DONT HAVE THE NUMBER TO CALL AND TELL THEM IT'S NOT DONE AND WHEN I ENTER MY VIN IT SAYS ALL RECALLS ARE FINISHED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP CHEROKEE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE MESSAGE CENTER DISPLAYED "SERVICE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY" AND A HUMMING NOISE EMERGED FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO MORIAN CHRYSLER JEEP (374 SIEMERS DR, CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO 63701) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS A FAILURE WITH THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MORIAN CHRYSLER JEEP (374 SIEMERS DR, CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO 63701) THREE OTHER TIMES FOR ELECTRICAL FAILURES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.

SERVICE SHIFTER INDICATOR COMES ON- SOLID RED LIGHTS APPEAR ON THE SHIFTER IN EVERY GEAR. COMES ON EVERY COUPLE OF DAYS. CARGURUS HAS SEVERAL PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. DEALERSHIPS SEEM TO NOT REALLY KNOW WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM IS, REPLACING ENGINES, TRANSMISSIONS, SHIFTERS- ONLY TO HAVE THE PROBLEM COME BACK FOR THESE FOLKS. CLEARLY, A RECALL IS IN ORDER. I AM CONCERNED IF I TAKE MINE IN, I WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE OTHERS, PRICE GOUGED- WITH NO REAL SOLUTION. HERE IS THE LINK FOR THE FEED OF PROBLEMS: HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T68742_DS947921

FAULTY ENGINE WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. ENGINE PISTON BLOWN AT 54K, ON BRAND NEW 2016 JEEP CHEROKEE, AND CONSEQUENTLY REPAIRED UNDER MANUFACTURER WARRANTY. FCA AND DEALERSHIP DIFFICULT TO WORK WITH AND ATTEMPTED EVERYTHING TO AVOID THE REPAIR UNTIL I OBTAINED LEGAL COUNSEL. THE VEHICLE STILL RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF WHILE BEING OPERATED WHICH MAKES IT A DANGER TO ALL. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION, WHICH THE DEALERSHIP SAID STEMMED FROM THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WOULD GET "STUCK" IN A PARTICULAR AND CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO "JUMP" WHILE ATTEMPTING TO IDLE DOWN. LASTLY, THE SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT HAS COME ON. THE LIGHT COMES ON WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND DOES NOT APPEAR TO EFFECT THE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. NEVERTHELESS, THIS IS ANOTHER PROBLEM ADDED TO THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION ISSUES. THIS VEHICLE IS TRASH AND NEEDS TO BE COMPLETELY RECALLED. SHAME ON FCA FOR SELLING...

MY REAR GLASS WINDSHIELD BURST WHEN HEATING UP USING REMOTE START. I'VE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS HAPPENING WITH JEEPS AS WELL AS FORD TRUCKS. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL! CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT WAS ENGINEERED FAULTY.

SERVICE SHIFTER COMES ON AND SHIFTER PRND ALL RED LIGHTS COME ON AND YOU CAN NOT TELL WHAT GEAR THE CAR IS IN. IT CAME ON ONCE WHEN YOU SHUT OFF THE CARE IT WENT AWAY IT SIS THIS TWICE NOW IT JUST STAYS LIT. UP IN RED.

SERVICE SHIFTER INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON 2016 JEEP CHEROKEE.

WHILE LEAVING MY OFFICE AND MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED MID TURN. THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, NO BATTERY LIGHT APPEARED AND THE DASH ,RADIO AND HEAD LIGHTS WERE STILL ON. A MESSAGE APPEARED IN MY DASH TELLING ME TO SHIFT INTO PARK AND THEN SHIFT INTO THE DESIRED GEAR. I THEN PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TRIED TO RESTART IT 3 TIMES BEFORE IT STARTED AGAIN. NOW THE CAR DOES THIS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AFTER BEING TOLD BY A PROFESSIONAL THAT THEY CAN'T PIN POINT THE ISSUE.

I JUST PURCHASED THE JEEP A MONTH AGO & IT HAS 43,000 MILES. WHEN THE JEEP IS IN GEAR A "SERVICE SHIFTER" MESSAGE POPS UP ON DASH. ONCE IT POPS UP YOU CAN'T SEE YOUR MILES PER HOUR UNTIL YOU PULL OVER, SHUT THE JEEP OFF & RESTART. I WAS PULLED OVER & CITED FOR MY SPEED BUT I HAD NOWHERE TO PULL OF THE HIGHWAY TO. I FEEL LIKE IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. THE MESSAGE ONLY POPS UP RANDOMLY EVERY THREE OR 4 DAYS & EVERYONE I CALL SAY THEY'VE NEVER HEARD OF THIS & IT NOTHING COMES UP WHEN HOOK UP CODE READER.

WHEN DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH, "SHIFTER SERVICE" LIGHT CAME ON IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. I WAS A LITTLE SCARED AS ALL THE TRANSMISSION LIGHTS CAME ON (PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL DRIVE) AND I COULD NOT TELL HOW FAST I WAS GOING. SINCE THE CAR DID NOT SEEM TO HAVE DRIVING ISSUES I CONTINUED THE 20 MILES TO HOME. WHEN WE TURNED THE CAR OFF THE WARNING DID NOT COME BACK ON WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. AFTER CHECKING THIS ISSUE ONLINE I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. AND IT SEEMS THAT JEEP IS NOT SURE WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. JEEP DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS CAUSED BY U1465-00 AND P1C86-1D CODES, AND ARE GOING TO REPLACE SHIFT BEZEL AND HARNESS. MORE THAN A FEW PEOPLE ONLINE SAID THE SAME PROBLEM CAME BACK AFTER THE HARNESS WAS...

AT APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES MY SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN RED. AT APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES MY SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN RED I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ASK THEM ABOUT IT AND THEY SAID THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY MONEY AND THEY NEVER HEARD OF THAT PROBLEM. NOW AT 56,000 MILES THIS SERVICE SHIFTER CAME ON AGAIN AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO

SERVICE SHIFTER LIGHT CAME ON AS SOON AS I SHIFTED INTO PARK, STAYED ON UNTIL I TURNED THE CAR OFF, DID NOT COME BACK ON FOR THE NEXT 20 MILES.

SERVICE SHIFTER SCREEN COMES ON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT.

ERROR MESSAGE THAT STATES: "SERVICE SHIFTER"ON THE DASH BOARD AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFTER BOX LIGHT UP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP CHEROKEE. ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE DRIVING, THE SERVICE SHIFTER AND SEVERAL OTHER UNSPECIFIED WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NOLF CHRYSLER DODGE (2373 BROOKVILLE ST, FAIRMOUNT CITY, PA 16224, (814) 365-5251) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CONTACT WAS NOT PROVIDED CONCLUSIVE INFORMATION AS TO THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, MY 2016 JEEP CHEROKEE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. THIS DID NOT ALLOW ME TO ACCELERATE, AND THE CAR SLOWED DOWN WHICH I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE HIGHWAY. THERE WAS THE ENGINE LIGHT AND THE BATTERY LIGHT SHOWN ON THE DISPLAY. AFTER COUPLE TIMES OF ATTEMPTING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT FINE TO WORK. THIS WAS REALLY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WITH I HAD NO ENGINE PROBLEMS PREVIOUSLY TO WARN THAT SUCH THING WAS GOING TO HAPPEN.

PLEASE NOTE THE PHOTOS ARE NOT FROM MY JEEP, THEY ARE FROM ANOTHER PERSON HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. DASH DISPLAYS 'SERVICE SHIFTER' AND ALL LIGHTS ONE SHIFTER ILLUMINATE. I WAS DRIVING WHEN THIS HAPPENED (TWICE ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS). I PULLED OVER SHIFTER TO PARK, SHUT THE JEEP OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT WENT AWAY FOR A FEW MILES AND CAME BACK ON. THIS HAPPENED EITHER THE END OF MARCH OR BEGINNING OF APRIL 2019 DURING SLUSHY WET ROAD CONDITIONS. I HAVE NOT SEEN IT SINCE THOSE TWO DAYS. DATE ENTERED BELOW IS AN ESTIMATE. I WASN'T AWARE THIS SITE EXISTED UNTIL A FRIEND TAGGED ME IN A FACEBOOK POST DEPICTING AN ACCIDENT CAUSED FROM THE SAME ISSUE IN A 2017 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE.

THREE DAYS AFTER BUYING THIS JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED I WAS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY WITH THE CAR IN PARK RUNNING WHEN I STARTED TO SMELL SOMETHING BURNING, THE CABIN FILLED WITH SMOKE TO THE POINT THAT I CALLED 911 AND DISPATCHED MY LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT, THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE THE LOCATION OF THE SMOKE, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH ALL WINDOWS DOWN IN 18 DEGREE WEATHER, THE DEALER FOUND "BURN MARKS" ON THE CABIN AIR FILTER AND ALL THEY DID WAS TO REMOVE THE CABIN AIR FILTER AND THAT WAS IT? CAR MAKE ME FEEL UNSAFE AS NO REPAIR OR DIAGNOSTIC OF BURNING OR SMOKE HAS BEEN DONE. CAR LOST POWER WITH THE A/C RUNNING LAST WEEK WHILE AT THE CAR WASH, I HAD TO TURN OFF THE A/C TO GET IT UP TO SPEED. ALSO WHILE SITTING IDLING AT MCDONALDS PICKUP WINDOW A STRONG...

ALL PRND INDICATOR LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER UNIT ILLUMINATE AT ONCE, AND STAY LIT. "SERVICE SHIFTER" WARNING APPEARS ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY. WHEN "SERVICE SHIFTER" WARNING IS DISPLAYED, CANNOT BE TURNED OFF AND DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER READINGS (OR OTHER INFORMATION) ARE NO LONGER DISPLAYED. PRND SHIFTER INDICATOR LIGHTS BLINK SPORADICALLY UNTIL WARNING FINALLY DISPLAYS. LIGHTS STAY ILLUMINATED AFTER WARNING APPEARS. PRND LIGHTS AND DISPLAY WARNING APPEAR WHILE VEHICLE IS PARKED/STATIONARY AS WELL AS WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. STARTED SPORADICALLY, ROUGHLY 6 MONTHS AGO (EARLY 2019) AND WOULD TYPICALLY GO AWAY IF VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RE-STARTED. THESE WARNINGS NOW HAPPEN DAILY, EVERY TIME I START THE VEHICLE, AND ALMOST NEVER GO AWAY. UPON RESEARCHING THIS CONCERN ONLINE, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT MANY HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING SINCE AROUND 2012. MOST WEB INQUIRES INDICATE THAT THIS MAY BE RELATED TO A WIRING HARNESS? I TOOK...

CAR HAS COMPLETELY STALLED AND LOCKED UP TO A POINT WHERE THE STEERING WHEEL CANNOT BE MOVED, HAZARD LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN ON, CANNOT CHANGE THE GEAR AT ALL. HAD TO HAVE A FLAT BED TOW BECAUSE THE WHEELS WERE LOCKED, TOW DRIVER HAD TO USE DISH SOAP TO GET THE WHEELS TO SLIDE UP THE RAMP. JEEP DEALERSHIP FIRST REPLACED THE BATTERY, THEN REPLACED THE BCM AND IT IS STILL A SOLID BRICK. THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS WRONG. THIS HAS COST ME $600 SO FAR WITHOUT EVEN A REPAIR. MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IS DRIVING THIS DANGEROUS CAR. I HAVE SEEN THE FORUMS AND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS JEEP, IT NEEDS A RECALL. AS SOON AS WE CAN GET IT RUNNING AGAIN, WE WILL BE TRADING IT IN. I CAN'T HAVE HER IN A DEATH TRAP, IT STALLS WITHOUT WARNING AND WE HAD...

I TOOK IT TO MY DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS 2 QUARTS LOW ON OIL. I JUST HAD AN OIL CHANGE 2 MONTHS AGO AND GET THE SYNTHETIC OIL TO IMPROVE MY ENGINES LIFE, I'M NOT SURE FOR AN OIL CHNAGE UNTIL NOVEMBER 19. MY DEALERSHIP PUT OIL IN FOR ME AND SAID THAT THIS ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN IS A FAIL SAFE TO PROTECT THE ENGINE FROM BEING DAMAGED. THIS EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN VERY FRIGHTENING AS BOTH TIMES I WAS DRIVING ON MAJOR ROADWAYS. MY DEALERSHIP HAS ADVISED ME TO COME BACK IN AND GET A OIL CHANGE AND THEY WILL SEAL MY OIL RESERVOIR COMPONENTS AND PUT...

SERVICE SHIFT LIGHT CAME ON DASHBOARD AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFT PANEL WERE LITE, WHILE WE WERE DRIVING. SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED WITHIN A MONTH. CAN'T FIND A RECALL, BUT I SEE IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING TO OTHER JEEP OWNERS. IS IT SAFE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE?
