2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Structurebody Problems

The engine still make a sound and the body when is raining the water came inside

The dashboard has bubbles and is delaminating from the dash. This problem exists in many of the jeeps and a secret service bulletin was issue for only a 6 month period back in December 2019 to June of 2020. Jeep owners were not contacted about this and a recall should be declared for this defective part.

Passenger front carpet had present water. Anticipated heater core issue. Mechanic discovered a body seal leak, and drained 2 gallons of fluid. Windows fogged, and or froze from the inside of the vehicle.

Dash board leather cover bubbling de lamanting. Causing stange reflections in windshield while driving.

LEATHER DASHBOARD IS COMING LOOSE AND CURLING OFF DASH,IMPEDING DEFROSTER

WHILE PARKED THE REAR HATCH HAS RECENTLY STARTED TO GO UP ALMOST ALL THE WAY AND THEN COME BACK DOWN, SOMETIMES VERY FAST OTHER TIMES SLOWLY. IT HIT ME IN THE BACK THE FIRST TIME. I CALLED THE DEALER TO INQUIRE ABOUT RECALL R27 / NHTSA 15V-393, THEY SAID IT WAS NOT LISTED FOR MY VIN, THE VEHICLE WAS BUILT IN 3/14 AND DISPLAYS ALL OF THE ISSUES LISTED IN THAT RECALL.

ON 9/23/20 MY 2014 GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN CAUSING ME TO CRASH INTO A FOUNTAIN WALL. I WAS PARKING AND ALMOST AT A COMPLETE STOP WHEN MY CAR WENT HAYWIRE. IT FELT AS IF I GOT HIT FROM BEHIND, MY DASH LIT UP, MY ENGINE REVVED REAL LOUD AND MY CAR LUNGED FORWARD. THERE WAS ENOUGH FORCE TO LIFT MY FRONT END AND PLACE IT ON THE 2ND TIER OF THE FOUNTAIN WALL. I WAS IN A TIGHT PARKING AREA AT THE HIALEAH GARDENS BUILDING DEPARTMENT. PLEASE GOOGLE EARTH THE PARKING LOT TO UNDERSTAND THE PARKING LOT AND HOW COMPACT IT IS. I HAD AN INVESTIGATION DONE ON MY CAR AND RECEIVED A VERY GENERIC RESPONSE VIA EMAIL REGARDING THE FINDINGS AND THAT CHRYSLER / JEEP WERE NOT LED TO BELIEVE THAT THE INCIDENT WAS DUE TO A MANUFACTURING RESPONSIBILITY. NOT ONE PERSON HAS CALLED ME TO...

COWL PANEL TRIM IS CRUMBLING AND CAUSES A 'BEE HUMMING' NOISE WHEN VEHICLE REACHES 55 MPH OR MORE. VERY ANNOYING AND DROWNS OUT RADIO/MUSIC. WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT THEY CAN TAPE IT DOWN BUT THE STRIP CRUMBLES WHEN YOU TOUCH IT. ATTEMPTED TO USE A BONDING SUBSTANCE RECOMMENDED BY PART STORE; STILL CRUMBLES WHEN TOUCHED.

PAINT BUBBLING ON THE EDGE OF THE HOOD

IN MY 30 YEARS OF OWNING MANY DIFFERENT VEHICLES, I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCE DOOR POPPING. ALL MY HINGES UPPER AND LOWER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ON MY 2014 GRAND JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED 4X4. FROM MY RESEARCH, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT MANY JEEP OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT AND ARE LEFT IN DISAPPOINTMENT AS I AM CURRENTLY. THERE IS NO RECALL OR TSB ON FILE WHICH IS MIND-BLOWING CONSIDERING THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IF IT WAS ONE DOOR, I COULD SAY, OK UNDERSTANDABLE 'THINGS HAPPEN. BUT ALL 4 OF MY DOOR HINGES UPPER AND LOWER NEED TO BE REPLACED BE CAUSE ALL MY DOOR POP. JEEP MANUFACTURE HAS DECIDED TO STICK THEIR HEAD IN THE SAND AND IGNORE THE COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE

I DON'T GET THIS I JUST GOT THIS PART REPLACEMENT AND IS ALREADY PEELING OFF AND I CALL MY DEALER AND THEY SAY THE RECALL ALREADY EXPIRED

THE CAR MAKE AN AWFUL SOUND WHEN DRIVING . ONCE THE SPEED IS OVER 30 MILES PER HOUR THE WINDSHIELD COWL MAKE A VERY LOUD NOISE IT HAS BEEN DOING IT FOR A LONG TIME I JUST COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS UNTIL I TOOK IT TO A DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. IT HAS JUST BEEN GETTING WORST OVER THE YEARS.

DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE THE SUNROOF EXPLODED.

THE TRANSMISSION WOULD DISENGAGE WHEN DRIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS CAUSING SEVER DECELERATION ALMOST KILLED ME IN TRAFFIC. THE SUSPENSIONS FRONT AND REAR ARE ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS. SUSPENSIONS MAKES LOUD SCREECHING NOISES. REAR SUSPENSION IS ALMOST NON EXISTENT. REAR SUSPENSION BOUNCES SIDEWAYS OR ROLLS MORE SIDEWAYS WHILE DRIVING OVER BUMPS ON HIGHWAY. STEERING IS LOOSE. AND ELECTRION CONTROL ISSUES AS WELL

MY VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE AFTER SITTING FOR 2.5 HOURS AND WAS COMPLETELY DAMAGED. THE FRONT END WAS COMPLETELY DAMAGED AS THE PICTURES WILL SHOW. INTERIOR WAS DAMAGED

BUBBLING OF PAINT IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS ON THE FRONT RIM OF HOOD. JEEP WILL NOT COVER SINCE JUST OUT OF 5 YEAR WARRANTY, HOWEVER IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE. *DT *TR

I HAVE OWNED 5 JEEP CHEROKEES AND THIS HAS TO BE A LEMON.I PURCHASES IT NEW. I HAVE HAD MANY MANY RECALLS, MOST MAJOR. RECENTLY I HEARD WATER SPLASHING UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT, WHICH RESULTED IN WATER COMING INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOODING THE CARPET. I WAS TOLD THAT THE BOX HOLDING THE BATTERY WAS WHERE THE WATER WAS LOCATED. THEY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON IT FOR TWO DAYS AND CAN NOT FIND WHERE THE WATER IS ENTERING. NOW THEY ARE PREPARING TO REMOVE THE TRIM FOR A POSSIBLE LOCATION. THEY CHECKED WITH MY EXTENDED WARRANTY COMPANY AND THEY SAID THIS WAS NOT COVERED. I AM AFRAID THIS ISSUE WILL CAUSE A FIRE IN THE VEHICLE SINCE THE WATER IS ENTERING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I WAS TOLD NO RECALL FROM CHRYSLER ADDRESSES THIS MAJOR ISSUE WITH JEEPS, EVEN THOUGH IS IS COMMON. I AM AFRAID TO LOOK AT MY BILL...

HI, THE LEATHER ON THE DASHBOARD IS EXTREMELY CRINKLED FROM NATURAL EXPOSURE TO SUNLIGHT. READING IN FORUMS, IT SEEMS THIS IS A MASSIVE ISSUE AND NO RECALL TO FIX THE LINING HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LEATHER ON THE DASHBOARD WAS STARTING TO BUBBLE. THE ADHESIVE WAS NOT HOLDING THE MATERIAL PROPERLY. THERE WERE NO CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD AND THERE WERE NO AIR BAG INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE SEPARATION OF THE LEATHER ON THE DASHBOARD CREATED A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD, WHICH OBSTRUCTED THE CONTACT'S VISION WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SCHLOSSMANN DODGE CITY CHRYSLER JEEP RAM FIAT (19100 W CAPITOL DR, BROOKFIELD, WI 53045, (262) 790-9000) WHO STATED THAT THEY DID NOT SEE A RECALL AND ADVISED HIM TO CALL THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND RESTATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

THE CHROME TRIM AROUND THE CUP HOLDER ON THE CENTER CONSOLE IS DE-LAMINATING FROM THE PLASTIC AND HAS CREATED A SHARP AS A RAZOR EDGE ON THE CUP HOLDER WHEN YOU MUST INSERT YOUR FINGERS AND OR HAD TO GRAB YOUR BEVERAGE WHILE DRIVING. THE CUT THAT I GOT WAS QUITE PAINFUL, AND IF TRAFFIC WAS WORSE I COULD HAVE BEEN DISTRACTED ENOUGH BY THE PAIN TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I CALLED JEEP CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY DID NOT CARE. 34K MILES ON A 50K VEHICLE AND IT IS FALLING APART.

SUNROOF HAS FAILED 6 TIMES AND IS NOW READY FOR IT'S 7TH REPAIR. THE SUNROOF'S AUTOMATIC FUNCTIONS STOP WORKING SO WHEN IT FAILS YOU HAVE TO PUSH THE CLOSE BUTTON REPEATEDLY WHILE THE SUNROOF MOVES MAYBE 1/4" ON EACH DEPRESSION OF THE BUTTON. THE DEALER REPLACED THE MOTOR ONCE AND FOR THE OTHER 4 TIMES I WAS TOLD IT NEEDED TO BE CALIBRATED. THE LAST SUNROOF FAILURE THEY WENT IN AND WENT THROUGH ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS AND SAID THEY FOUND SOME ELECTRICAL WIRING PROBLEMS AND FIXED THEM. THE SUNROOF FAILED AGAIN 2 WEEKS LATER. THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT, DUE TO ANOTHER ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR ISSUE. THE ELECTRONICS IN THE VEHICLE MALFUNCTIONS REGULARLY WHICH AFFECT THE RADIO CONTROLS, NAVIGATION, CENTRAL LOCKING, PHONE, AND I GET RANDOM ERRONEOUS ERRORS ON THE DASH DISPLAY. THE RADIO/NAVIGATION UNITS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE NAVIGATION SCREEN LOCKS UP BUT THE VOICE WILL CONTINUE TO GIVE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DASHBOARD HAD ABNORMAL BUBBLES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MITCHELL CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 123 PLAZA DR, ENTERPRISE, AL WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MODEL USED A DEFECTIVE ADHESIVE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 52,000.

WIFE PARKING ON 1ST FLOOR OF PARKING STRUCTURE IN DOWNTOWN GREEN BAY, WI JULY 13TH 2016. SHE SHIFTED TO REVERSE TO ADJUST THE VEHICLE SO AS TO ENTER THE PARKING SPACE CORRECTLY. THE VEHICLE STARTED TO MOVE BACK WHILE SHE LOOKED OVER HER SHOULDER TO SEE WHAT WAS BEHIND HER. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRUCK STOPPED GOING BACK & VIOLENTLY JERKED FORWARD. THE TRUCK STARTED MOVING RAPIDLY FORWARD EVEN THOUGH IT HAD NOT BEEN SHIFTED INTO DRIVE. THE FRONT TIRES JUMPED UP ON THE CURB AT THE FRONT OF THE PARKING SPOT. THE TRUCK HIT THE CEMENT WALL VIOLENTLY AT THE FRONT OF THE PARKING SPACE. THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK ACTUALLY WENT THROUGH A PORTION OF THE CEMENT WALL. THE MOTOR WAS REVVING LOUDLY WHILE THE TRUCK WAS PRESSED UP AGAINST THE WALL AS IF TRYING TO PUSH ITS WAY THROUGH THE WALL. WIFE HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING VEHICLE...

I PUT THE CAR INTO PARK, AND AS I WAS EXITING THE CAR, AT A DEAD END ROAD IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, I REALIZED THAT THE CAR WAS GOING IN REVERSE, AS I WAS HALF IN AND HALF OUT OF THE CAR. THE DOOR KNOCKED ME TO THE GROUND, AND THE CAR ALMOST RAN OVER MY FOOT. I GOT ABRASIONS ON SEVERAL AREAS OF MY BODY, SPRAINED MY KNEE, ELBOW AND MY HAND. MY GLASSES ALSO GOT RAN OVER AND WERE DESTROYED. THE CAR KEPT GOING IN REVERSE, AND HIT A CHAIN LINK FENCE BEFORE I COULD RUN TO CATCH UP TO IT. THE REAR HATCH DOOR IS ALL SCRATCHED, THE WINDOW SCRATCHED, THE LEFT REAR QUARTER PANEL IS DENTED AND SCRATCHED, INSIDE THE HATCH ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE FRAME IS SCRATCHED AND DENTED, THE LEFT REAR LIGHT IS BROKEN. I CALLED BROWN'S JEEP IN PATCHOGUE, NY AFTER...

PULLED THE VEHICLE INTO PERSONAL GARAGE TO CHANGE OIL. PLACED VEHICLE IN PARK AND EXITED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN PARK (ELECTRONIC SHIFTER) AND THE DOOR HIT THE DRIVER AND THEN CAUGHT THE CEMENT WALL OF THE GARAGE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STOP. CAUSED $1200 WORTH OF BODY DAMAGE TO LOWER DRIVER SIDE DOOR.

I THOUGHT I PUT THE CAR INTO PARK BUT WHEN I STEPPED OUT THE CAR ROLLED AWAY AND HIT A PALM TREE. THIS CAUSED BODY DAMAGE TO MY PASSENGER FENDER AND BUMPER. ALSO PAINT DAMAGE TO MOST OF THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE.

DOUBLE PARKED MY VEHICLE IN A BUSY URBAN RETAIL COMMERCIAL AREA IN HOBOKEN, NJ AND LEFT IT RUNNING WHILE I WENT INTO A STORE TO PICK SOMETHING UP QUICKLY. WHEN I RETURNED THE CAR WAS GONE. IT HAD BACKED ITSELF UP HALFWAY DOWN THE BLOCK AND TURNED INTO TRAFFIC, CROSSED 2 LANES OF TRAFFIC AND SMASHED INTO A CAR PARKED ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. CAUSED MINOR DAMAGE TO THE REAR QUARTERPANEL. COULD HAVE RUN SOMEONE OVER, COULD HAVE MOWED DOWN A BUNCH OF KIDS, WHO KNOWS!?! THE ELECTRONIC SHIFTER IN THE JEEP SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN PARK BUT WAS ACTUALLY IN NEUTRAL. IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL WITH NO TACTILE FEEDBACK, ALL THE GEARS FEEL THE SAME TO THE TOUCH.

THIS MORNING, WHILE TRAVELING SOUTH BOUND ON US 931 IN KOKOMO, IN MY SUNROOF IN MY 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE EXPLODED. THE GLASS SHATTERED AFTER MAKING WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A HAND GUN GOING OFF NEXT TO ME. DURING MY DRIVE, ALL WINDOWS WERE UP AND THE AC WAS ON. THERE WERE NO CRACKS IN THE GLASS BEFORE THE "EXPLOSION."

TAKATA, ON APRIL 15, 2016 I HAD A HEAD ON COLLISION WITH A 2004 FORD PICK UP TRUCK ON STATE HIGHWAY 28 IN SENECA SC THE JEEP WAS TOTALLY DESTROYED AND I SUFFERED MULTIPLE SERIOUS BODILY INJURIES. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. IF THE AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED IT WOULD NOT HAVE CONCLUDED IN BROKEN RIBS, BROKEN HAND, MULTIPLE CUTS AND BRUISES AND THE LOSS OF 90 % OF MY SITE. EVEN THE STATE TROOPER SAID HE HAD NEVER WITNESSED SUCH A TRAVESTY.

VEHICLE RECENTLY PURCHASED AS CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED, BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY, 28K MILES: AFTER DRIVING VEHICLE LESS THAN 100 MILES DISCOVERED THE FOLLOWING DEFECTS: RADIATOR LEAKS POWER STEERING RACK LEAKS LOOSE OBJECT ROLLING BACK IN FORTH INSIDE DRIVER'S DOOR PANEL VEHICLE BEING SERVICED BY DEALER UNDER WARRANTY, HOWEVER I NEEDED TO PAY FOR A RENTAL FOR 1 WEEK.

THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM ACTIVATES AND SLAMS ON THE BRAKES WITHOUT CAUSE WHILE TRAVELING FORWARD WHICH IS STARTLING AND DANGEROUS BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN NEARLY REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER DRIVER FOR BRAKING WITHOUT CAUSE. WHEN PARKING THE GEAR SELECTOR FEELS LIKE IT IS IN PARK IT IS ACTUALLY IN REVERSE OR NEUTRAL. BRAKES SQUEAK AND WERE WEARING GROVES INTO ROTORS WHEN VEHICLE WAS BRAND NEW. ALSO THE FRONT BUMPER HAS NEVER FIT CORRECTLY AS WELL AS THE FENDER MOLDINGS PEELING OFF. VERY SAD FOR A $55,000 VEHICLE.

THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW HAS TWO STRESS CRACKS THAT JUST APPEARED. THERE IS NOT A IMPACT MARKS OR ANYTHING WHICH WOULD CAUSE THE GLASS TO CRACK. THEY ARE TWO STRESS CRACKS DUE TO CHEAP GLASS OR DESIGN PROBLEMS. LOCATED MANY OTHERS ONLINE WHICH HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND JEEP WILL NOT WARRANTY IT.

I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT 2 INCIDENTS WHERE MY 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HAS ROLLED AFTER IT WAS \PUT INTO PARK AND THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. THE 1ST TIME HAPPENED ON 9/4/15 AFTER PARKING MY JEEP AND EXITING THE VEHICLE IT ROLLED BACKWARDS APPROXIMATELY 1' INTO THE CAR BEHIND ME. NO DAMAGE TO THE OTHER VEHICLE AND ONLY SMALL SCRATCHES ON MY REAR BUMPER. THE 2ND TIME WAS 9/5/15, AFTER PARKING THE VEHICLE ON A SMALL INCLINE THE VEHICLE ROLLED 2' FORWARD INTO A GUARD RAIL POST CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO MY FRONT BUMPER AND GRILL. I BROUGHT MY JEEP TO THE SMITH HAVEN CHRYSLER JEEP DEALER TODAY 9/23/15 TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED AND THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME "THIS IS NORMAL ESPECIALLY ON AN INCLINE" AND "IT SHOULD NOT ROLL MORE THAN 3 FEET". I COULD NOT BELIEVE I WAS BEING TOLD THAT THIS IS A NORMAL...

I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A PARKING GARAGE BUT WAS FAVORING THE RIGHT SIDE. I BACKED UP APPROX. 6-8 FEET TO STRAIGHTEN THE CAR OUT. AS SOON AS I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, IT LURCHED FORWARD AT FULL THROTTLE, WITH MY FOOT STILL ON THE BRAKE. I COULDN'T STOP IT. THE CAR ACCELERATED RAPIDLY AND SHOT FORWARD, OVER THE PARKING BARRIER AND RAMMED INTO THE CEMENT SUPPORT STRUCTURE OF THE DECK. THE IMPACT WAS JARRING AND THE CAR JERKED BACK UPON HITTING THE STRUCTURE. ALTHOUGH THE DISTANCE WAS ONLY ABOUT 6-8 FEET, THE IMPACT DID $3,300 DAMAGE TO THE CAR. I TOOK PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE ACCIDENT SITE AND THE DAMAGE TO MY CAR. THE PHOTOS SHOW THAT MY FRONT TIRES LAID DOWN SKID MARKS ON THE PAVEMENT AND UP AND OVER THE PARKING BARRIER AS I WAS TRYING TO STOP IT. A CLEAR INDICATION I WAS ON...

JEEP ROLLAWAY COMPLAINT: MY BRAND NEW 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE ROLLED AWAY FROM ME WHEN I PUT IT INTO PARK. I GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO GET THE MAIL AND FEW SECONDS LATER, I HEAR A CRASH. THE JEEP ROLLED OFF THE DRIVEWAY INTO A TREE. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS IN THE WAY AND MY DAUGHTER WAS NOT IN THE CAR. I GOT BACK INTO THE CAR AND FOUND THAT IT WAS IN REVERSE, NOT PARK! THE FONT BUMPER WAS DISLODGED AND SMASHED. I HAD BEEN HAVING A LOT OF TROUBLE GETTING THE ELECTRON GEAR SELECTOR TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT GEAR SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT THE CAR. 50% OF THE TIME I WOULD DISCOVER THAT I WAS IN REVERSE WHEN I THOUGHT I WAS IN PARK. THERE IS VERY LITTLE CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE TWO GEARS, NOTHING DEFINITIVE LIKE THERE IS ON A SLIDE TRACK IN MOST CARS WITH...

WHILE DRIVING AT 80 MPH, A VERY LARGE BUCK RAN IN FRONT OF THE CAR ON THE INTERSTATE. AFTER DRIVING BACK BY TO SEE THE DEER THE NEXT DAY IT WAS PROBABLY AROUND 300 LBS. THE ENTIRE FRONT PORTION OF MY VEHICLE WAS CAVED IN. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WHATSOEVER. HITTING SOMETHING SO MASSIVE AT SUCH A HIGH RATE OF SPEED SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED SOME SORT OF SAFETY MECHANISM I.E (AIRBAGS!!!!!)

VEHICLE WAS IN A LEVEL PARKING LOT WITH A BOAT AND TRAILER ATTACHED. VEHICLE WAS IN PARK CONFIGURATION WITH ENGINE RUNNING. VEHICLE WAS LEFT UNATTENDED FOR ABOUT 1 MINUTE AND IT ROLLED ABOUT 100 FEET, THROUGH THE PARKING LOT AND ACROSS A ROAD AND DOWN A LEVEE WHERE IT HIT A TREE ON THE LEFT FRONT SIDE. THE DRIVER WAS NOT IN THE VEHICLE WHEN IT HIT THE TREE. THE CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY PATROL ARRIVED AT THE SCENE AND THERE WAS NO CITATION ISSUED. THERE WAS NO OTHER PROPERTY DAMAGE OTHER THAN TO THE VEHICLE AND THE BOAT TRAILER. THE INSURANCE COMPANY PAID FOR THE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE LESS THE DEDUCTIBLE.

OCTOBER 13, 2014 MY 2014 GR CHER HAS THE MOST DANGEROUS SHIFTER DESIGN I'VE EVER USED IN A MOTOR VEHICLE! THE IGNITION SWITCH DOES NOT KILL THE ENGINE IF THE VEHICLE IS IN GEAR EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED. THE SHIFTER DOES NOT ALWAYS ENTER PARK WHEN OPERATED WHICH CREATES THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE VEHICLE MAY DRIVE OFF WHEN THE DRIVER BELIEVES HE HAS STOPPED IT.. COMBINED WITH THE QUIETNESS OF THE MOTOR, AMBIENT NOISE MAY MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW THAT THE VEHICLE IS IN GEAR WITH THE MOTOR RUNNING! AFTER PULLING INTO MY GARAGE WITH LANDSCAPERS WORKING IN THE YARD, I THOUGHT I HAD PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AND HIT THE IGNITION BUTTON TO TURN IT OFF. UNFORTUNATELY, THE SHIFTER KEPT THE CAR ENGAGED IN REVERSE. AND, THE MOTOR DIDN'T TURN OFF! NOT ONLY DID THE ENGINE NOT SHUT OFF, BUT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO DRIVE...

I HAD A ROLL AWAY INCIDENT BACK AROUND JULY 25TH 2015 AFTER PLACING MY TRUCK (2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED) IN PARK IN FRONT OF A GAS STATION LOCATED ON RT 23 SOUTH IN RIVERDALE NJ WITH MY CHILD IN THE CAR. I HAD JUST BOUGHT GAS AND REALIZED I NEEDED TO GET SOMETHING INSIDE THEIR STORE SO AFTER THE PUMP FINISHED I PULLED UP IN FRONT OF CONV. STORE, PLACED IT IN PARK AND RAN IN FOR NOT EVEN A MINUTE, COME BACK OUT AND MY TRUCK HAD ROLLED AWAY INTO A ONE WAY EXIT SIGN. THERE IS A NICE DENT IN MY RIGHT FRONT BUMPER. . I JUST PASSED THIS GAS STATION OVER THE WEEKEND AND THE SIGN IS STILL IN THE SAME BENT POSITION SINCE MY TRUCK ROLLED INTO IT. I KNOW I PLACED MY TRUCK IN PARK AND LOCKED THE DOOR ON TOP OF THAT BECAUSE...

WATER LEAKING INTO THE BATTERY BOX AND VEHICLE FRAME.

A TEEN DRIVER PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF MY WIFE AND SHE HIT HER GOING AROUND 20-25 MPH. THE WHOLE FRONT OF THE JEEP NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED TO THE TUNE OF ALMOST $6,000.00. HOWEVER, THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. MY WIFE DID GO TO THE HOSPITAL COMPLAINING OF LOWER BACK PAIN AND A FEW DAYS LATER HAD A SORE NECK AS WELL. I REALIZE IT WAS A HIGH SPEED IMPACT, BUT THE WITH THAT MUCH DAMAGE IT SEEMS LIKE THE AIR BAGS SHOULD HAVE WENT OFF.

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 50MPH THE FRONT RIGHT FENDER FLARE BLEW OFF OF MY CAR AND FLEW UP OVER THE WINDSHIELD. WAS VERY FRIGHTENING, LUCKILY NO ACCIDENT HAPPENED BUT VERY EASILY COULD HAVE. *TR

JANUARY 2ND. 2015 I PULL OUT OF THE FASHION SQUARE MALL AND TURN ON TO RIO ROAD INTO THE RIGHT LANE. THIS IS THE TURN LANE ON TO ROUTE 29 NORTH. I TRAVEL ABOUT 50 YDS. THE REPORTING OFFICER SAID MY VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 40 MILES AN HOUR WHEN I REAR ENDED A TRUCK I FELT THE IMPACT AND HEARD THE CRUNCHING METAL AND I VAGUELY REMEMBER SEEING THE TOP MY HOOD BEING SHOVE BACK. I WAS STUNNED I KNEW I WAS HURT AND I WAS HAVING TROUBLE BREATHING. SOMEONE CALL 911 AND THE MEDICS LOADED ME INTO THE AMBULANCE. I COULD HEAR WHAT THEY WERE SAYING BUT HAD TROUBLE FOCUSING. THE POLICE, AND FIREMAN WHERE DISCUSSING WHY THE AIR BAGS HAD NOT DEPLOYED FOR THE AMOUNT DAMAGE DONE I ALSO REMEMBER THE MEDICS ASKING WHY THE AIRS BAGS HAD NOT DEPLOYED. *TR

VEHICLE ACCELERATED SUDDENLY, UNINTENTIONALLY, AND DISPROPORTIONATELY TO THROTTLE POSITION, RESULTING IN A HEAD-ON CRASH INTO A WOODEN FENCE. VEHICLE AND FENCE WERE BOTH DAMAGED. *TR
