No incident but ridiculous that Jeep/Mopar cannot find a remedy for this URGENT Fire risk after 3 years - it's time to fix this so the vehicles can be parked safely in doors - or not at risk when person is driving car.

Jeep/Chrysler/FCA/Stellantis has known about an electrical problem with the tailgate lift for years. I now have received Recall 49A requesting me "...to not park these vehicles inside of buildings or structures..." because of fire potential. I have been to my local Jeep dealer - no help! I called 800-Chrysler - no help! I called 844‑253‑2872 - no help! Will Jeep/Chrysler/FCA/Stellantis reimburse me for damages from parking my Jeep outside, of course not! But, they don't mind damaging my vehicle since I have to pay for it and not them. Jeep/Chrysler/FCA/Stellantis needs a swift kick in the b__t and get this thing fixed. They have had years to fix is and are simply stonewalling the customers. the federal safety agency please help.

I am complaining regarding an unresolved recall issue. Its been since May 2023, initial publication said it would be resolved by the end of the 2nd quarter now they are not saying when it will be resolved.
On August 11th, 2023, at approximately 12:50 pm, I drove my 2015 Jeep Cherokee into my houses’ garage and parked. I went inside my house to meet an air conditioning repairman. No sooner than a minute or two had passed that I immediately heard noises coming from my garage.The noises sounded like mechanical in nature. It almost sounded like a washing machine agitating. I opened my side door of the garage and saw a plum of grey smoke billowing from the engine’s hood. Then I saw what looked like sparks and very small flames coming from underneath the front engine. Within a split second, I got into my car and turned on the ignition. I saw no lights on the dashboard indicating that I had a problem. I proceeded to pull the car out of the driveway (the garage door was already up) and exited the car as quickly as I could. Within seconds the flame grew larger. I then called 911 while waiting on the front lawn. I had 2 dogs inside the that I considered were safe. The police came first and then two fire trucks. By that point, the Jeep was completed engulfed in flames including the tires.The fire started in the front of the vehicle and worked its way back. The firemen distinguished the fire which took about 30 minutes from beginning to end. The heat from the fire melted the siding over my two car garage (garage is attached to the house) as well as the siding to right hand side of the home. Glass and debris began to catch fire and pop and spit into the yard. Let me just say that I’m a breast cancer survivor still going through treatment and was at home alone at the time when this happened as my husband was out of town. I’m not in 100% back to my old shelf. I’m absolutely in shock and devastated over the loss of the car. And I’m in more shock to think what would have happened if I hadn’t had the foresight to pull the car out of the driveway. I’m simply devastated.

Got a recall letter about an electrical shortage May 11.Called the dealer and customer care, both told me that there was nothing they can do about recall as there is no solution; however, my recall cause a serious safety issue as it can start a fire with ignition on or off. Its been almost 60 days no solution; therefore I would like to replace my vehicle as there is nothing they can do to fix it and driving it causes a safety hazard that Im not comfortable putting myself in as I suffer from ptsd from a previous car crash, and deal with anxiety daily so this problem to my vehicle is causing me emotional distress.

Electronic emergency brake locked up while reversing, just went on by itself, unable to move car and i couldn’t get it off or get in a gear to move the car at all I had myself and my grandbaby in the car at the time Now the odometer is flashing and the “A” button that would shut engine off at a light, but no warning lights before this incident - a message is showing now “Service emergency brake” along with the icons that go with the emergency brake I called Dodge Service center from my car, no help, just suggested it be towed in -they said never heard of it doing that, has to be looked at Been searching this problem seems I’m not the only one this has happened to
My alternator went out and was replaced and while in doing they said my gear shifter broke and when they tried to replace it that the new one broke too. My parking brake and check engine light are now on and they are not sure why.
2015 Jeep Latitude caught fire in the middle of the night on 03/29/2023 (6 weeks before Jeep's latest recall) with the ignition off, parked in my driveway - no one in it and the ignition had been off for over 3 hours. Fire started under the driver's side tail light INSIDE the framework of the Jeep with the electrical wiring. What is jeep going to do for those of us who have already lost their vehicle because of a Jeep design flaw? (FYI, Stellantis/FCA/Mopar/Jeep are all aware of this situation, and Stellantis reply to me was they would not tell me the cause of why my Jeep caught on fire and offered no solutions to what I was facing - their response to me was barely 3 weeks before they sent out the recall so Stellantis lied from the beginning about the issue and denied all accountability since it happened before they sent the recall even though they had been "investigating" the issue for over a 6 months at least with other Jeeps)
The contact's daughter owns a 2015 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated that while her daughter was attempting to shift gear, the transmission failed to shift in between gear.

The contact related the failure to the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 23V338000 (Electrical System, Structure). The vehicle was not repaired.

Car will shut down on the free way. Car will go 65 MPH and suddenly give out. The car will be on but the engine will be off. Car will turn off anywhere at any time. I bought a new PCM and issue is still occurring. Car is in great condition but won’t start properly and feel scared for my life when I have to drive it.
Jeep transmission jerks, doesn't shift when its supposed to, and when I give it regular pressure gas, and I drive slow, it will not shift and then suddenly shift causing a jerk. I never can depend on the vehicle and even don't make left hand turns unless there is a traffic light because I'm afraid the Jeep won't pull out in time and I'll get hit by another car.
