This vehicle has been to the dealer and corporate has been notified. The situation starts when the weather is below freezing or snowing then turns to rain. The sunroof drain does not work properly causing water to pour out of the center ceiling map lights,the garage door control panel, the driver side column, and the handle to get into the vehicle. This causes a major distraction while driving and also can cause severe electrical damage, water damage to the interior and mold/mildew build up. . Corporate claims they know nothing about this situation however currently there is a class action lawsuit vs chrysler corporation regarding this issue with many different models with the same issue. This situation only occurs during the extreme cold weather change and precipitation. The dealer and jeep have no answer to rectify this problem.

While driving vehicle suddenly stalled wouldn't restart for several tries then finally did. Never stalled again until recently. Sometimes it starts in neutral other times it has to be put in park. Upon restart vehicle drives as if nothing has ever happened. It now stalls at idle or when accelerating or even while driving at a steady rate of speed. I have been paying close attention to the key position and it seems normal in the on position and doesn't seem to be the reason behind this erratic stall situation. Numerous accounts of similar situations have been noted here and on other websites. I keep my vehicle well maintained and tuned, it runs great. Many times weeks or months go by without any stalls.
Driving on highway 91 south check battery light came on then check engine and then all warning lights illuminated. Then speedometer, lights and engine shut off shortly after at 65 MPH. . .very dangerous had to coast to the side of the highway with heavy weekend traffic. Towed jeep to chrysler dealer where they got code b229 and b1a35. Dealer replaced win module(ignition) and new keys. Seems to be running okay at the moment. Had to pay dealer almost $800. To rectify not to mention the towing and rental costs. This item should be recalled and we should be reimbursed!

As I was about to exit the freeway onto exit ramp I heard a click and the vehicle just turned off. This is not the first time this has happened. Four times prior but at much lower speeds....parking lot speeds. I also seem to be having a problem at times when I start the vehicle. It just turns off. I have taken the vehicle in to the dealer twice and they have run all the diagnostics but have been unable to identify a problem.

My jeep turned off while driving on the highway. I had to put the jeep in neutral and restart it. This has happened about 9 or 10 times. It happens randomly and infrequently. Not sure what the problem is but it is definitely scary when it happens. Also the key fell out of the ignition once, the car remained running.
Vehicle would die unexpectedly and not restart until transmission was put in park position. Several incidents ie stopped at light, acceleration to turnpike, slow street driving this would disable steering and create difficult braking.
My engine has shut down and the electrical system powered down while driving many times (more than 60 times in the last 3 years). This has happened at many speeds between 0 (standing still) and 60 MPH. When the vehicle shuts down, steering becomes very difficult and brakes work to a minimum. I've taken my grand cherokee to the jeep agency many times, and they keep saying that nothing is wrong with it. Only once they told me it was an oxygen censored, which they changed, but the problem persisted constantly. This is a very dangerous situation as the vehicle can become very difficult to control at which speeds I bought my jeep grand cherokee 2008 in mexico city.
I filed my second complaint on 07/14/2014 component(s): electronic stability control , unknown or other date of incident: 06/28/2014 the federal safety agency id number: 10610308 on 10/22 I transferred my jeep transmission into neutral to tow behind our rv. When I took my foot off the brake the jeep electronic fdcm threw it into 4wd and it lurched forward almost hitting our rv and my husband who was working on hooking up the vehicle. I warned your office in january and again in july that this was a safety issue but had no idea it could do this!! I was concerned about needing 4wd and not having it. Now I am concerned about our physical safety. Nothing has been done to make chrysler fiat step up, own up the n23 debacle that caused this issue and fix it. They must be held accountable and fix this before someone is injured or killed. Please do not ignore this complaint and just another jeep owner complaining about the n23 recall. This is a serious safety issue!!!!
