ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CHRYSLER SENT US A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN SEPTEMBER 2014 BUT AFTER CONTACT BOTH A DEALER AND CHRYSLER DIRECTLY THEY CLAIM THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART AVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE DEFECT. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND THE VEHICLE ENGINE HAS DIED WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING IT AT LEAST FOUR TIMES; THE LAST TIME HE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 MILES PER HOUR. THIS VEHICLE IS A THREAT TO OUR LIFE SAFETY. I WOULD LIKE IT REPAIRED OR REPLACED AT NO COST TO US. I DO NOT WANT TO TRADE IT IN AND PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE WHICH CHRYSLER HAS BEEN TRYING TO GET US TO DO FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS. THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER. *TR UPDATED 11/02/15.*JB

VEHICLE FAILED TO START. ALL LIGHTS, GAUGES, ETC. WERE OPERATIONAL. FAILED TO ENGAGE STARTER. TOWED TO REPAIR FACILITY. VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A FAULTY POWER CONTROL MODULE. REPAIR SHOP REPORTED THAT DUE TO NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE MODULE ACROSS THE COUNTY, THE REPLACEMENT PART IS CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE AND MAY TAKE UP TO A WEEK OR LONGER BEFORE THE PART IS AVAILABLE. APPARENTLY, THIS IS A COMMON FAULT IN THESE VEHICLES AND RENDERS OUR VEHICLE INOPERABLE FOR AN UNACCEPTABLE LENGTH OF TIME.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WOULD JUST SHUT OFF AT RANDOM LOSING BRAKES, STEERING AND ENGINE POWER AS WELL AS OTHER COMFORT FEATURES. IT HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST 6 OCCASIONS, USUALLY YOU COULD JUST SHIFT TO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING AND RESTART THE CAR FIXING THE ISSUES. TODAY HOWEVER IT HAPPENED WILL SWITCHING LANES TO THE CENTER TURN LANE. UPON APPLYING THE BRAKES TO WAIT TO TURN LEFT THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR, THEN ON THE SECOND DEPRESS IT WAS SUPER STIFF AND VERY LITTLE BRAKING FORCE APPLIED. THIS CAUSED THE JEEP TO REAR END THE 2 OTHER CARS WAITING TO TURN LEFT. THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY EITHER.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: 14V-438 RECALL DATE: SEPTEMBER 3, 2014 MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: P41 "SUMMARY: SOME JEEP COMMANDER AND JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE AN UNINTENDED CHANGE IN IGNITION SWITCH POSITION WHILE DRIVING. SAFETY RISK: THIS MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, POWER STEERING, AND BRAKING ASSIST INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH AND DISABLING ONE OR MORE OF THE VEHICLES SAFETY FEATURES INCLUDING THE FRONTAL AIRBAGS. REMEDY: CHRYSLER INTENDS TO REPAIR VEHICLES FREE OF CHARGE (PARTS AND LABOR). HOWEVER, THE PART REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A PERMANENT REMEDY FOR THIS CONDITION IS CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE. CHRYSLER IS MAKING EVERY EFFORT TO PROVIDE THE PART AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. RECALL STATUS: RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE" I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INCIDENTS WHERE ALL ELECTRICAL OTHER THAN THE POWER TRAIN FAILS, INCLUDING AIR-CONDITIONING. IF I JIGGLE MY IGNITION SWITCH EVERYTHING COMES BACK ON. IF THIS RECALL HAS SUCH A HIGH RISK LEVEL OF CRASH, INJURY, AND EVEN DEATH, WHY HASN'T JEEP COME UP WITH A REMEDY. I WORKED IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY COMBAT READINESS/SAFETY CENTER WHICH DEALS WITH ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION AND TRULY UNDERSTAND THE RISK OF INJURY OR EVEN DEATH THAT COMES WITH THIS POTENTIAL MATERIEL FAILURE. IF I WERE THE CEO FOR JEEP OR WORKED IN THEIR SAFETY DIVISION, I WOULD NOT PUT THIS OFF ANY LONGER. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR SINCE THE DISCOVERY OF THIS POTENTIAL MATERIEL FAILURE AND JEEP HAS DONE NOTHING. I RECOMMEND THAT JEEP IS PROACTIVE TO THIS FAILURE RATHER THAN REACTIVE.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THERE IS A RECALL FOR MY JEEP, YET THERE IS NO FIX. I DRIVE MANY MILES EACH DAY, AND I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL. WHAT IF MY CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIING ON THE HIGHWAY? WHAT IF I GET IN A WRECK? HOW CAN JEEP ISSUE A RECALL AND TAKE OVER A YEAR, THEN STILL NOT HAVE A FIX? WHAT IF MY JEEP WRECKS AND I OR SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE?

POWER TRAIN
THIS LOUD CLUNKING NOISE AND VIBRATION ON DOWNSHIFTING HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A LONG TIME. HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SLOWING DOWN AND THE TRANSMISSION IS DOWNSHIFTING. A PRONOUNCED CLUNK TWO TIMES AS I SLOW DOWN. I HAVE TAKEN THE JEEP TO THE DEALER AND VARIOUS REPAIR FACILITIES AND IT CAN'T BE FIXED. THE JEEP PEOPLE CLAIM THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE. I FEEL THEY ARE STONEWALLING ME. I HAVE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY ON THIS AND IT'S UNNERVING ESPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE OTHER PEOPLE IN THE JEEP. "WHY DON'T YOU GET IT FIXED THEY ASK"
