2019 Jeep Cherokee brakes complaints
Page 4 of 5: complaints 71 to 100 of 111, newest first, as owners wrote them.
2019 jeep cherokee completely stalled while decelerating on the interstate. Lost all power, steering, and brakes. Was able to restart the vehicle as soon as I put it in park. Called 3 different jeep dealers who told me they can't diagnose it unless the check engine light is in and that I should call back if it does it again. The 4 cylinder model has a recall for a software glitch for the exact same issue, but mine is a v6. I hope I live through replicating the experience so I can call the dealer to be told they can't/won't figure out what's wrong.
On 7/12/2020. My 2019,jeep cherokee latitude 4x4. The electrical system engaged the emergency brakes and when I attempted to disengage the system re-engineering and vehicle can not move due to this. And I don't know why and how safe this my be if it happened on the road? Need to fix this
Brake pedal fading / fluid leak under engine near drive shaft. Brake pedal moving closer to floor over time. When engine running. Looks like fracture in aluminum casting?
Tl* the contact owns a 2019 jeep cherokee. The contact stated that there was an abnormal burning chemical odor coming from the engine and into the cabin of the vehicle through the air condition vents. The contact stated that the odor smelled like burning plastic. The contact became nauseous from the odor. The vehicle was taken to marino chrysler/jeep/dodge (5133 w irving park rd, chicago, il 60641), however, the mechanic was unable to replicate the failure. The contact also stated that there was a metal on metal sound when the brake pedal was depressed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 2,000.
My 2019 jeep cherokee trailhawk has been in the shop for the second time since dec 14 for electrical problems. Attached is my 10/27/19 letter to chrysler describing the problem. Basically car cuts off without warning while driving (even on freeway) and have to drift to a stop and attempt to restart car several times before it starts up.
2019 jeep cherokee and just stops when driving and sometimes a hard stop and jerk.brakes does the same but slide.my car is at dealership and they say it's just the battery but I don't think so.also my car will be on but it's tell e to start car and it makes a humming noise while driving.*dt
My car shut off in the middle of the road or at the stop sign several times. I had to restart the car in order to start it and drive. The brakes have also squealed several times while slowing down on the local streets and interstate. The bluetooth takes 10-15 minutes to add the phone and sometimes does not connect until car is restarted. These incidents started to take place in may 2019
U86 recall on brakes coating on piston causes gas in line my brakes are locked up four times wants on road moving around 20 second time was backing up in driveway third time was that brookshire's when I turn in the parking lot and 4 time was at the football field

I took my car four times to the dealership for repairs. They have only done two repairs but every time I take it and they fix something, something else starts giving me problems. My car has shut down in the freeway that was the reason why I took it the first time. The dealer only did an update in the power train, which they said it was recall. After that the car continue with all the other problems that were not taken care by the dealership. I tried two different jeep/chrysler dealerships, one in alhambra which is where I bought the car from and the other location I took the car was the one in downey,ca. I'm afraid off getting into a car accident because of all the problems the car has. The dealership doesn't want to fix the car as they said the car is not showing any codes for them to fix them. The car accelerates by it self, the brakes are not working properly, it shakes and the last time I took the car for repair it started to smell like gasoline, also the dashboard turns on and off by it self. I just want to have a reliable car as I'm paying for a 2019 vehicle not a used one. I just don't want to put my kids, myself, or anyone's life in danger due to the car not functioning properly. I would greatly appreciated if you guys can assist or help me with this matter at your earliest convenience.
While driving this morning at 70 MPH my 2019 jeep cherokee 2.0 turbo lost all power, power steering and power brakes. I fought to pull it off the road. Right when it stalled out the message center stated "auto start/stop not available" and the auto start/stop light illuminated along with the battery light. The 'd' drive indicator on the dash was blinking. Upon stopping and placing the vehicle in park, it turned over but would not start. I placed the vehicle in neutral, and nothing. The car acted as if it were in auto stop as the door chime dinged when the door was open and headlights were off (push button start). Locking the vehicle left the dash lit up like it was running. Chrysler had it towed to the local dealership where it is waiting to be looked at. Had my wife been driving this when it happened she might not have been able to pull to the side of the road with no power steering or brake assist.
"takata recall" my 2019 jeep cherokee (latitude plus, fwd) always having issues. Vehicle engine shuts off when driving. This vehicle is not safe to drive, having to drive across amtrak tracks to get to work is just not safe, when this happens the battery light turns on, not to mention the rotaries sound of a crunch when driving. How many oil changes do this car really need in 2 months, driving 5 miles times 5 day to and from work? I always have at least 2,000 miles left before oil change is needed.
The vehicle does not shift correctly. It lags terribly. It does not accelerate properly. It jerks and the transmission grinds. The brakes make strange noises when coming to a stop and it doesn't stop as quickly as it should. The radio overheats and the USB ports stop working randomly. The vehicle cut off on a major hwy at one point. Several complaints have been made to the dealer and it has been serviced multiple times and it's not correcting the problem. It's a brand new vehicle and started having issues not long after it was purchased. The dealer keeps re-flashing the transmission and it's not fixing the problems this vehicle has. Chrysler won't do anything for us because they say there are no codes on the vehicle. This vehicle is not operating properly and it's not even safe to drive. We shouldn't have to keep a vehicle that was purchased brand new and it has had nothing but problems. The mechanic even admitted it lags but stated "it's not that bad." this is unacceptable. No brand new vehicle should lag at all or have any of these other issues for that matter!
5th complaint here about this vehicle which is now lemon law buy back due to lunging against the brakes at a stop, failure to shift properly and a throttle responsive clunk that has never been resolved. The only repairs fca would approve is reprogramming the computers which was completed several times and still has these issues.
Tl* the contact owns a 2019 jeep cherokee. While driving 75 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed, but failed and traveled to the floorboard. Additionally, brake fluid leaked from the rear driver's side wheel and the brake warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to transwest chrysler dodge jeep ram (2720 6th st, limon, co 80828, (719) 775-2881) where it was diagnosed that the bleed screw was loose. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 14,000. The VIN was unknown.
The vehicle decides to reverse in park and in drive while operating the vehicle on the road. The shifting is hard calibration and chugs. The engine has stalled in the middle of driving and completely turned itself indefinitely off. While driving into the parking space the vehicle has numerously and spontaneously decided to reverse in park. The same has happened in drive. The auto engine shut off doesn't work properly as the computer gets confused as to which gear it is in when it starts up. The radio likes to turn itself once in a while so I'd say thats mechanical although the least of my worries. I recently experienced parking in my front yard .. The "d" starts blinking in drive and the vehicle starts indefinite reversing...... This SUV also has bad fuel efficiency getting 12 mile per gallon on freeway and road. Not safe.

While flat towing our 2019 jeep cherokee latitude plus 4x4 behind our motor home, the emergency brake engaged itself and before we could get stopped in about 1/2 of a mile, the back tires and wheels on the car were destroyed. This is not a complaint nor am I looking to hold someone responsible. My car has been repaired by my vehicle insurance company. I merely want to report what happened to help jeep determine why this occurred. I called the dealership in peoria, arizona where we purchased it as well as the jeep dealer in joplin, mo who replaced the tires and wheels. They both told me that on a bumpy stretch of highway with numerous pot holes, as this section of road was, that the "computer" turns on the emergency brake. Again, we were towing it behind the motor home and had done so on numerous occasions. There are a set of steps that you have to do before towing the vehicle, which I have done many times without any problems. I called jeep headquarters three times today and they told me that they did not have anyone who would be interested in being informed of this. Had this happened while my husband or I were actually driving the car, instead of towing it, it could have been dangerous as I assume it also would have engaged the airbags. Again, I just want to know why this happened and I am fearful it could happen again. I'm not interested in blame, liability, or responsibility. I only want jeep to know what happened and see if the explanations I've been given are reasonable or not.
I have a 2019 cherokee with approx 18500 miles on it. I have had the ebs (emergency brake system) come on while idling at a stoplight 5 times. The dealership has no idea what is going on. The handle to release it does not respond. It appears to happen when you are releasing your boot from the brake. I believe the car thinks it is rolling and reacts.
Wen into arbitration with documentaiton of 8 trips to dealer to find problem they told us they were not able to duplicate the problem sssee recall #ua9/the federal safety agency 18v‑739. .after the arbitration ckhrysler rep stated that the vehicle was not unsafe.I believe other people are dealing with this same problem. I can mail coopies of work orders and and jucgement from ncds .pleas send mailing info.
On 5/23/2019 my wife was exiting a parking lot driving forward in our 2019 jeep cherokee. She turned right into the driveway and then steered right toward the center lane. There were no cars around her. Suddenly the dash lit up in red brake, and the parking brake engaged. She stopped momentarily, trying to figure out what had just happened. At this point the light went out and the parking brake released. She drove home without incident. The doors were not ajar. She was not backing up. Our jeep does not have the forward sensors, just the rear sensors. We do have the parking brake set (u-connect) to auto engage when shifted into park. We are concerned this could happen on the highway at 65 MPH. I'm bringing it to the dealer in the morning.
Breaks feel worn out and when I break you can hear noise.also the disc look worn out and vehicle is beginning to drive poorly.
Purchased the vehicle brand new in november 2018 and on several occasions within the past couple months, including today, the red brake light on the dash has spontaneously activated. Most of the time it occurs when I come to a stop light and auto shut off kicks on, however, this issue is very serious since its basically stalling my vehicle while in route, and is very scary since I drive my child around. I've also taken it into the dealership to have it looked at and they are unable to determine the issue, which is extremely disheartening.
Rented vehicle 2019 jeep cherokee going out of town. On my way to houston. On an exit on my way to put gas took the exit and the jeep could not brake was with my two kids. I tried to brake truck didnt stop ended up flipping over in a ditch. Single vehicle accident. Broken ankle immediate sugery plate 10 screws. Broken femur bone. Broken ribs. My son was airlifted to san antonio and daughter in icu. Terrible accident I thank god for giving us another chance. The jeep cherokee brakes did not work and it stall it couldnt stop at all. Im afraid of driving my life has change dramatically. Also my seatbelt got locked I could have died they had to cut it w/ a knife. That is very dangerous couldnt get out of the vehicle due to seatbelt being locked. Photos attached.
On march 29, 2019 as I was driving to work and was approaching this intersection, the light changed to yellow. When I put my foot on the brakes so that I could stop for the light, the brake pedal went to the floor. I was unable to stop for the light which turned red for me by now and I was driving at approximately 25 to 30 mile an hour. I tried pumping the brakes, but the brake pedal was positioned on the floor. As I had no other choice but to go through the red light, I kept my hand on the horn to try and avoid an accident. There were cars starting to go through the intersection, the closest car almost hit my passenger side of the car. Between that car stopping short, and me steering around them, serious injury and or death was avoided, after I past the intersection I put the car into neutral and eased on the parking brake to stop my brand-new 2019 jeep, and then put it in park and turned the car off. By this point I was a complete and total nervous wreck. How could my brand new 2019 jeep cherokee latitude plus that I had been driving for thirteen days have brake failure? I have driving for 45 years and never had anything like this happen. I was a little over two miles away from work with no traffic lights or stop signs. So I started the car up (still shaking like a leaf) with the intention of driving very slowly and using the parking brake to get to work. To my surprise the brakes were working and I made it to work still shaky and scared to be in the car let alone driving in it. God was with me through this to be able to avoid any kind of accident that could have LED to serious injury or death. On my drive in I have several intersections that are major highways that tractor trailers use. I have to worry that what if the brakes go out at one of these intersections?
When my vehicle is in motion, driving through city streets, and I try to apply the break it accelerates instead. The RPM's will reach 4000 or 5000 and hold there. I was told by chrystler to apply the gas quickly then break when this happens to stop my vehicle. This is unsafe and I do not feel comfortable in my own car. I also have an issue with the engine making a knocking sound at times, and the radio fades in and out, with that feature turned off, as well as shutting completely down and resetting itself. Prior to the recall in nov of 2018 this same vehicle from one week of purchase would stall while I was driving through city streets. All of these things happen at a speed of 35 or less. The car went from stalling to after recall update it is now accelerating when trying to stop. The dealer has not been able to replicate and chrystler either so they are saying there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. I do not feel safe in my own car. I am worried there will be a time I will not be able to stop the car before causing an accident.
Tl* the contact owns a 2019 jeep cherokee. While driving, the vehicle lost power without warning. The contact shifted into neutral and the vehicle restarted. The instrument panel indicators flashed as the contact drove home. The following day, the vehicle was started, but then shut off and failed to restart. The contact called the manufacturer and had the vehicle towed to fairfield chrysler dodge jeep ram (1409 montour blvd, danville, pa 17821, (570) 275-3300). The dealer diagnosed that the ABS unit needed to be replaced. After two weeks, the contact drove the vehicle and it stalled two miles later. All the instrument panel indicators illuminated again. The contact was able to restart the vehicle and barely made it home. The vehicle was towed again to the dealer where it was diagnosed that there was a loose wire. The vehicle was currently at the dealer. The contact wants to return the vehicle and stated that it was unsafe to drive. The failure mileage was 13.
While I am in movement driving my vehicle. Without any warning lights popping up in my dashboard. My vehicle suddenly stops. It has happened to me while I was driving in the highway and a semi truck was driving behind me. I hit my brakes fast enough so that the semi truck could react in time, but otherwise I could it have gotten impacted from the back which I am sure. It would it have cause more than just and accident. The date this happened I noticed the car kind of slowed down its velocity fast and dramatically when it stop. It was still running, no smoke or anything coming out of the hood. I did noticed that the heater felt extremely hot more than normal which it also made me panic a bit. She shift gear I wasn't able yo move it at all. They had advised me at the dealership one of the mechanics that sometimes, if this happened; to turn the car off for 10 mins and then turn it back on. I did that, that night and when the car turn back of the stability ligh warning came on, the brakes light came on, the engine ligh came on, the emergency parking light came on, but this this I was was able to move the shift stick but I could only drive forward. I tried to reverse and go back but it wasn't letting me. My sensors were beeping as if I was near or close to hitting something. When my car was the only one in the highway. One of the things that I noticed while seating in my car. This normally happens to my SUV when it's very cold outside. We are talking -4 degrees, but I am surprised because this is a 2019 vehicle that I have and I have only had it for 5 months. I have taken it in for service 4 tmes and they supposedly fix the issue but now it has happened again and I don't feel safe in that vehicle. A vehicle that stops out of nowhere, definitely not safe. I am not only putting myself in danger, but I feel like I am putting everyone around me driving in danger.
Tl* the contact owns a 2019 jeep cherokee. While driving 15 MPH and making a right turn, the contact lost control of the rear brakes.

The body damage was in the process of being repaired by an independent mechanic. The contact stated that the crash was related to the federal safety agency campaign number: 18v523000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The failure mileage was 8,000.
