Started appearing a month ago, complete loss of power on major highways/interstates. The ptu was supposedly already replaced due to 1st recall (prior owner), but still had issues with replacement. I have 2 children and the complete loss of power terrified me. The ptu is a $3,000 repair/replacement. I was able to put it in neutral and pull over to restart the car, but this has happened a few times! This could have caused major accidents and deaths!!!
Hello my front passenger suspension bolts sheared due to over torque condition. My mechanic said he believes there was something related to this, but it is a serious safety issue. I checked the Stellantis bc and the federal safety agency Recall site and found nothing. My front drive train is bent and I can’t imagine the risk it out my wife and daughters. Could have snapped on the highway and killed them, and potentially others, in an accident.
Wife and I were towing our 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk behind our 28,000 LB Motorhome and it began to shake and wobble so bad we had to pull over. We got 35 miles from our Home base in Ohio. Sat on the side of the road about 20 min and took off again toward an exit about a mile ahead. It did not wobble so we drove on. About 30 miles later it did it again. After it did it 5 times in 80 miles we decided to have the Jeep hauled home and put away for the Winter and we left for the South.
Front lower control arm bushings and front and rear sway bar bushings are cracked.
our mileage/odometer is flashing and states TSB. The TCM has been reprogrammed 3-4 times and still malfunctioning. Electrical issues through out cause stereo to not turn on sometimes and the all the sudden turn on its own. We have made complaints to the jeep and they said the recall have already been done they wont help us and then close our case with out any solutions. We have already spent 2000 or more fixing issues that don't help the problem. We completely replaced the shifter and the whole assembly that goes with it. We have had a quick learn done to the transmission. We still had codes popping for the TCM prior to the shifter going out. We have had codes come up for the drive train and where told that recall was already done and we still have issues. We are at a loss here and dont know what else to do. We have only got this car a little over a year ago and have reported problems since day one.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep cherokee. The contact stated while driving 45 MPH, she heard an abnormal sound coming from the vehicle. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact continued driving to her destination. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer preferred chrysler dodge jeep ram (3146 henry st, muskegon, mi 49441, (231)733-4401) where it was diagnosed with needing the transmission and unknown rod of the rear end to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 44,000.
I was driving down a straight, flat road about approaching an intersection and a light which just turned green. Was going about 25-30 MPH at the moment when it sounded and felt like a tire popped in the rear of the jeep. I rolled to a stop, pulled off to the side and noticed the tire wasn't popped, but that my rear passenger tire was now resting on the wheel well. I got down to look under and saw that a thick metal bar had snapped in half, which in turn snapped my axel, and ripped my suspension out with it. I got the vehicle towed to the local shop, they looked at it and said they had never seen this happen before. When towing the jeep, they needed to wrap it with extra straps since the damage was so significant they could not tie the chains under the car in the rear. I am currently trying to get jeep to send an evaluator. I currently have a case open with them.
Starting at the beginning of this month my car will randomly shut off and state to 'shift gear into park' the gear shift lights on all letters light up red and the car takes about 20 minutes to start back up. Today it happened three times in a row while in the car with my daughter and it has me petrified. We went up the hill by our home and it happens and the car started going backwards.
