VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS ARE AN OBSTRUCTION OF THE DRIVER'S VIEW WHEN TURNING INTO SPIRALING PARKING LOTS. THE MIRRORS ARE SO LARGE, (LARGER THAN NECESSARY TO SEE WHAT IS ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE) THAT I HAVE TO SIT FORWARD AND LOOK AROUND THE MIRROR OR ABOVE THE MIRROR, OR BELOW THE MIRROR TO SEE THE LINE IN THE STREET. IT IS VERY HARD TO SEE WHERE THE LINES ARE WHEN DRIVING INTO A PARKING SPACE OR AN ATM MACHINE. I AM A TALL PERSON SO I IMAGINE A SHORTER PERSON WOULD REALLY HAVE TROUBLE WITH VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING AND TRYING TO SEE WHAT IS ON THE SIDES OF THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TO BE VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN DRIVING BECAUSE I HAVE ALMOST HIT OTHER VEHICLES WHEN TURNING LEFT DUE TO OBSTRUCTION OF VISIBILITY. I CAN SEE THROUGH THE SIDE VIEW MIRRORS, I JUST CANNOT AROUND THE MIRRORS. THIS IS DEFINITELY A DESIGN DEFECT BECAUSE I CANNOT SEE ANYONE NOT HAVING A PROBLEM SEEING AROUND THESE MIRRORS. MY HUSBAND COMPLAINS ABOUT THE MIRRORS AND EVERYONE THAT DRIVES MY JEEP. THE MIRRORS NEED TO BE SMALLER AND LOWER SO THAT YOU CAN SEE OVER AND AROUND THEM. I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLE AND I FEAR THAT THERE WILL BE MANY ACCIDENTS OR NEAR ACCIDENTS WITH DRIVERS IF THIS DEFECT IS NOT CORRECTED. I AM VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN DRIVING IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS BECAUSE OF THE VISIBILITY PROBLEM. I AM CONSIDERING SELLING THE VEHICLE (WHICH IS NOT A YEAR OLD YET) DUE TO THE SAFETY ISSUE OF THE MIRRORS. *TR

POWER TRAIN
IN EITHER THE 5TH OR 6TH GEAR, THE TRANSMISSION/DRIVE TRAIN SHUTTERS WHEN ASCENDING A MODEST GRADE AT A STEADY SPEED BETWEEN 50 AND 65 MPH. INITIALLY THERE WAS A POWER LOSS AND THE TRANSMISSION SEEMED TO GO INTO NEUTRAL MOMENTARILY. CHRYSLER REPLACED THE OXYGEN SENSOR, TORQUE CONVERTER AND SEVERAL FLUIDS AND FILTERS. THIS HAS HELPED, BUT THE SHUTTERING REMAINS. CHRYSLER MAINTAINS THE CONDITION IS NORMAL, AND, IF THE SHUTTERING IS BOTHERSOME, THE CAR SHOULD BE PUT IN THE "TOW/HAUL" MODE EVEN IF NOTHING IS BEING TOWED AND ONLY THE DRIVER IS IN THE CAR. (AT THE JEEP FORUM AND OTHER VENUES ON THE INTERNET, OTHERS REPORT VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL PROBLEMS ON JEEPS WITH THE V-8 ENGINE.) *TR

ENGINE, SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
I BOUGHT MY BAND NEW 2012 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE OVERLAND 7 MONTHS AGO - BRAND NEW FROM THE CHRYSLER JEEP DEALERSHIP AND ABOUT A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT IT I STARTED TO NOTICE THE ACCELERATION IS NOT 100%, THE WINDOWS STOP ROLLING UP OR DOWN FOR HOURS AT A TIME AT RANDOM TIME, THE BRAKES SOMETIMES DON'T WORK ALL THE WAY, THE ENGINE JUMPS WHEN SWITCHING GEARS AND MOST RECENTLY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND THE RPMS WOULD NOT GO PAST 1.5 EVEN WHEN FLOORING IT & THERE WERE LOUD CLICKING NOISES WITH A LOUD FAN. THIS TIME I WAS NOT ABLE TO DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP - I HAD TO TOW IT IN BECAUSE IT WAS NOT DRIVABLE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER SHIP 3 TIMES FOR THEM TO CHECK ON THESE THINGS & EVERYTIME I TAKE IT IN THEY TELL ME THEY ARE "UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEMS" & CANNOT HELP ME. I HAVE CALLED NUMEROUS TIMES TO COMPLAIN & REPORT ISSUES AND THEY EITHER TELL ME THEY CANNOT HELP ME, THEY PUT ME ON HOLD FOR AN INFINITE AMOUNT OF TIME, I GO TO VOICEMAIL, OR NO ONE IS AVAILABLE. THEY CALLED ME TODAY, AFTER HAVING IT FOR 4 DAYS, AND TOLD ME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS FOR A "EVAP PERG SYSTEM" SO THEY REPLACED A HOSE & UPDATED MY POWER CONTROL MODULE AS A PRECAUTION. WHEN I ASKED THEM HOW THIS HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH MY ENGINE PROBLEMS HE COULD NOT EXPLAIN IT. WHEN I ASKED HIM WHY MY ENGINE HAS PROBLEMS HE COULD NOT EXPLAIN IT. NO ONE THERE WANTS TO HELP ME - WHAT I FEEL LIKE THEY ARE DOING IS GIVING ME EXCUSE AFTER EXCUSE IN THE BOOK, STALLING ME FOR AS LONG AS THEY CAN UNTIL MY WARRANTY RUNS OUT. I HAVE DEALT WITH 4 MANAGERS THERE - THE 1ST ONE STOPPED RETURNING MY PHONE CALLS, THE 2ND ONE TOLD ME I AM IMAGINING THINGS AND I SHOULD STOP COMPLAINING AND BE THANKFUL THAT I HAVE A NEW CAR, THE 3RD ONE POND ME OFF ONTO A 4TH ONE & THE 4TH ONE TOLD ME TO MY FACE THAT I AM A LIAR AND I AM MAKING UP STORIES SO THE SITUATION LOOKS WORSE THEN IT ACTUALLY IS. *TR

STEERING
WE HAD NOTICED A SMALL PUDDLE OF FLUID IN OUR GARAGE AND TOOK CAR TO BE SERVICED AT JEEP. THEY SAID IT WAS TRANSMISSION FLUID AND FIXED THE PROBLEM. NEXT DAY WE DROVE 500 MILES TO OLIVER BC AND WHEN WE STOPPED THE CAR, WE NOTICED A LARGER PUDDLE OF RED FLUID FROM THE LEFT FRONT AREA UNDER CAR. THE CAR WAS DIFFICULT TO STEER AND REALIZED IT MUST BE POWER STEERING FLUID THAT WAS LEAKING. WE TOOK IT TO A DEALER IN PENTICTION, BC AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING FLUID LEFT IN THE SYSTEM. THEY "LOCATED POWER STEERING LEAK, AS CLAMP WAS NOT RELEASED, THEY RELEASED CLAMP, CLEANED OFF THE FLUIDS, REFILLED RESERVOIR, ROAD TESTED AND NO LEAKS." WE THEN DROVE ANOTHER 300 MILES TO OUR DESTINATION AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY LEAKS AND THE POWER STEERING SEEMS FINE. WE JUST BOUGHT THE CAR IN MAY AND IT ONLY HAS 2100 MILES ON IT. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I STARTED THE ENGINE OF MY 2012 JEEP AND AS SOON I BEGAN TRAVELING WITH THE JEEP FLUIDS POURED FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE ENGINE. I DID NOT NOTICE THIS UNTIL I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AFTER DRIVING 10 MINUTES. THE COMPUTER DID NOT SHOW ANY SIGNS OF AN ERROR OR ENGINE TROUBLE. WHEN I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND LOOKED UNDER THE FRONT OF THE CAR I SAW A STEADY STREAM OF ORANGE LIQUID POURING FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE ENGINE. THIS FLUID WAS ENGINE COOLANT. I IMMEDIATELY HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A LOCAL CHRYSLER SERVICE STATION. MY JEEP HAS BEEN WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR OVER TWO WEEKS NOW. THE JEEP CANNOT BE FIXED DUE THE FACT THAT CHRYSLER HAS NO SPARE PARTS. *TR

STEERING
POWER STEERING HOSE BURST, SPILLING FLUID, AND POWER STEERING WAS SUDDENLY LOST AFTER ONLY 400 MILES. FORTUNATELY I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY ON A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET AND NOT YET ON THE HIGHWAY. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. MECHANIC RECEIVED DIRECTIVE FROM CHRYSLER ON A "FIX". HE MADE THE FIX, AS DIRECTED, BUT THE NEW HOSE QUICKLY BURST ON HIM DURING TESTING. CHRYSLER HAS DIRECTED A SECOND FIX. I HAVE NOT YET HEARD ABOUT THE STATUS OF THE SECOND FIX. I'VE BEEN WITHOUT MY CAR FOR 4 DAYS. I HAVE READ THAT CHRYSLER HAD TO RECALL 26,000 VEHICLES IN 2010 FOR A SIMILAR POWER STEERING PROBLEM. *TR
