The car continues to have an issue with the same recalls that were priorly fixed but continued to happen after a few years. The last repair for this recall only lasted six months and I now need to replace the exact same parts again. The vehicle is completely faulty. The computer control valve for the transmission continues to fail. My vehicle will say service transmission, and then you cannot switch gears and becomes undrivable until you clear the codes or replace the parts.... again.

4wd overheating. Owned this Jeep for 8 years and had it in multiple (5x plus) times for service 4wd code. 2 different dealerships cannot fix the issue. Now they are telling me just drive it and not worry about it or trade it in. It smells hot and something burning. I have the life time max care warranty on it. The codes I get are the 4wd is unavailable overheated and service 4wd. They have replaced multiple parts and still not working. I will be just sitting idle and it comes on.

1. The Motor Mounts, Esim, Struts, and Transmission, it is available for inspection 2. When driving, it "kicks" when switching gears, at redlights, it will tell me to put the vehicle in park, I have to stay at the light, put it in park, then in drive. Sometimes I will have to restart the vehicle 3. Confirmed by Automotive shop, information available upon request 4. Inspected by automotive shop 5. No warning lamps, just the check engine light and gas cap light when the problems started. This has been ongoing for months. Over $1000 worth of repairs that need to be completed

Service shifter light Service shifter light came on and gear shift lights are all red; Reverse, Park, Neutral, Drive. Then a warning message flashed to service the air bag system and the 4wd needs servicing. This has happened three times. The first time it happened was at a stoplight. The second time it happened I could not leave a parking lot. The third time it happened I barley got it toy destination to park it. I have researched that this tends to be a problem with jeeps.

Car has been jerking almost immediately after buying it brand new. They supposedly "fixed" the problem but jerking has not stopped. it hesitates when trying to accelerate most times and when it shifts into gear it thrusts/jerks so hard. Vehicle has stalled on me numerous times in traffic while coming to a stop. very afraid to even drive it. It shifts into neutral while driving or turning. it completely shuts off sometimes while in traffic or turning. cars had to slam on brakes to prevent from hitting me. this happened on several occasions. had to get the motor mounds and transmissions mounds replaced. Driving down the highway changing lanes wheel felt like it locked up. getting off the interstate was very hard and scary. steering wheel would not let me turn completely. get it home after wrestling with it. turn it off, to see what the problem was thinking I need power steering. tried turning it bac on NOTHING! get it towed, needed a water pump, but found that my motor and transmission mounds needed replaced. after complaining about the jerking movement for so long dealership said it wasn't the transmission and it wasn't going to be covered under warranty. I put too much money into this what supposed to been a new car to have so many problems from the jump. why is their not a recall on this whole vehicle????? Have all these issues but no recalls but 1 has been made. or I should say campaign. all these complaints about this particular car but no remedies for it. not even when they "update" "fix" it. too may problems. this is the worst car I've had. used cars didn't give me this much trouble. I need to be reimbursed for all the problems i should not have had from a new car. and not covered under warranty at all. clearly it has transmissions issues and engine issues. just wasting my time going to get these "fixes" for it not to be fixed not once. the date below is not the first time. it's only the most recent that my car has stalled, jerked and shut down. horrible car

I own a 2015 jeep cherokee sport with 104k miles. Both rear knuckles need replaced and the bushings in the passenger side is severely worn more than the other. There are no local dealers who can get them as they are back ordered through chrysler. One dealer is showing 30+ ordered through their dealership alone. I have even contacted chrysler corporate directly with no luck or additional information. My local technician said this is a major issue especially with winter coming to my area and that is may cause the vehicle to not be able to control as intended. The part is unavailable even though it is a major safety issue! The part # provided from the dealers is 5090072ae. While researching various sites for another source, I am only able to find 5090072ad, which looks like the right part but does not match part numbers. How do I get a part that my vehicle requires to function safely and keep my family safe (new born child) when the manufacturer won't provide me the part or give me an update on when one would be available.

On a sunday the 25th october my vehicle was parked at home getting ready to go to the shops didn't want to go forward but it was automatically reversing. It changed to low gear and didn't wanna increase speed above 40km/hr, it deactivated all sensors. It lost power and started jacking but was only reversing. I called jeep sa sandton on monday as it did the same thing they said it must be town must towed. On arrival I was told m vehicle has ptu problem, it is not transmitting power to the front wheels. And I need to pay for replacement of ptu. I asked what causes this ptu, the service girls said she doesn't know. I googled and discovered that my vehicle was recalled for this ptu software update because these cars experience this problem. But no one informed me despite that my car went for a service with jeep in may. The dealer and fca johannesburg is refusing to fix the damage and to update the software, the car has been with them for 2 weeks, and I am told I need to pay, while the information is clear that the recall was worldwide, and irrespective if your car is still under warrant or not the ptu needs to be updated and replaced by dealer free of charge.
