2012 jeep grand cherokee consumer isn't pleased with dealer doing recall repairs once a week *cn the consumer was informed his vehicle would on february 16, 2015, because there is a waiting list. Recall numbers 14v154000 and 14v391000.
Battery light came on after approximately 5 miles of driving after starting the car, on 10/5/14. This pattern continued for two days, and on the morning of 10/8/14 the car stopped running completely while I was pulling into the parking lot of the auto shop to have it looked at. While driving, I lost power steering and ABS before the car stalled completely a few moments later. I had to have the alternator replaced with only 50,000 miles on the vehicle. Several days later I learned of a new recall on chrysler vehicles due to alternator problems, and today I learned my vehicle was not a part of this recall because I have a 180 amp alternator, and those recalled were 160 amp. I am choosing to report this incident because I believe the failure of my alternator could have caused serious injury to myself or other drivers if I had been traveling at high speed when the battery died, and I believe the 180 amp alternators should be investigated for a possible recall.

I am sitting on 3 recalls on my vehicle list above, brake shield, visor wiring, and now alternator problem. I am not very happy with 3 recalls that they don't have part for, and the dealership can not tell me if and when parts will be in, I am to the point I don't want this vehicle anymore because of these issues. I don't wanna wait till there is a injury or fatality. I want this resolved or vehicle replaced. I am guessing the air bags will be next knowing there is a recall on them on other vehicles.
The engine would turn over, but it would not start. It would start again after ten minutes or so. It has happened three times and been to the dealer twice. The dealer says they do not know what is wrong and can't fix it. The internet has information indicating that chrysler knows about the problem but does not have the parts to fix it. Apparently, it could be an issue with the tipm.

My 2012 jeep grand cherokee laredo has stalled when turning on and has often not turned on. When driving the vehicle the car has shut off almost causing an accident.this has happened on many occasions. The car accelerates often when driving the lights, airbag symbols, etc turn on erratic. I had to replace the alternator and battery due to faulty timp which jeep has recalls on however not my year although-my car has the same problems which I have to pay for and I have researched and many other jeep owners have the same issues and jeep is very aware and are not taking responsibility, I feel unsafe driving this car especially with my children, the car is unreliable and have been late to work due to the car stalls and lack og turning on. This car has a mind of its own starts when it feels like it, speeds up on its own, lights turn on off,tells u keys left the car when it hasn't. Very angry at jeep I should not have to pay for faulty equipment due to your negligence!
Had a recall (the federal safety agency 14v‑391) electrical problem. Dealer told me "have to order part.. Will call you when comes in??? It is now november 20, 2014.. Been over 3 months-still waiting for call and part..."supposedly part ordered "a few months ago" dealer said that "quote"... "chrysler doesn't have many parts... They seem to drag out the process so that they do not get hit with all these expenses/charges in a month/year" well......this is b.s. !!! Just getting the "run around". When can I except this to be handle.. Can you put any pressure on chrysler to get part??? There is another "pending" recall on an a alternator (no news regarding this except an newspaper article last month).. Chrysler needs to get their act together..

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep grand cherokee. While driving approximately 40 MPH, the vehicle failed to start and stalled twice without warning. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the tipm failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 34,800.
Attempted to use the autostart to warm vehicle and after one minute it shut off. Tried 5 times to start vehicle using push button, would not start or stop. Finally let me start with keyfob. I contacted dealer that morning and was told it is most likely the tipm but they don't have any; also I was told it is unsafe to drive my vehicle and get it repaired asap. Luckily I was able to locate a dealership with an appointment and part to fix it; even though they told me the computer might just need an update. Vehicle continued to not start at random times using keyfob. Having issues starting car up to the time I drove it across town to dealership, it would not turn over, sputtered, shook and started. I also have parts on order (been on order since 9/28/14) for the active recalls for brake booster and sun visor fires. I always hear a running sound after the vehicle has been shut off. Chrysler's customer services department is no help. I expressed my concern with all the recall/safety issues via email and was told "sorry to hear of your concerns and delay in having parts. I regret the problems you are having with your vehicle. Unfortunately we are unable to diagnosis your vehicles issues via email. We recommend contacting your authorized dealership to arrange an appointment." did they even read my complaint!!! I have an appointment to have it fixed but what happens between now and then. What happened to the dependable chrysler products? This is my 5th in 18 years of driving and my last. Hopefully I do not hurt/kill anyone or myself behind the wheel of this vehicle. I am scared to drive it. It is a 2012 with 28k on it, this is just disgusting! For as much as these jeeps cost I expect a better product and customer service from chrysler. Their dealerships can only do so much without backing from the manufacturer. Chrysler needs to fix these issues these are safety issues.

Erratic electrical issues. Heated seats stopped working. Back up camera not working. Keep getting error message that key battery is low even though battery was changed. Right rear taillight sporadically working.
Engine stalled while driving on interstate causing a near-accident. Vehicle was successfully restarted shortly thereafter, but after returning home and turning off vehicle, fuel pump continued to run. The following morning the vehicle would not start and had to be towed to chrysler/jeep dealership. Dealer repair involved replacing a defective "totally integrated power module" at a cost to me, the owner, of $1,200. This incident very closely mirrors media reports in late september, 2014, detailing similar incidents with the same vehicle. In at least one report (cbs-detroit; sept. 20, 2014; "chrysler recalls nearly 189,000 jeep grand cherokees, dodge durangos") chrysler claims their pending recall will cover SUV's built from jan. 25, 2010 through july 20, 2011. My vehicle, exhibiting the exact same malfunctions, was manufactured in november, 2011. Clearly the recall should be expanded to capture more vehicles with faulty power modules.
I was driving my vehicle when I noticed a small amount of smoke that seemed to be coming from the air system. Someone then exited my vehicle and the smoke billowed and I noticed fire on the passenger side sun visor area. I pulled my vehicle over and upon trying to exit the vehicle, noted that there was smoke coming from both sides near the side impact airbags and throughout the car. The fire was contained mostly to the passenger side, interior, but also went through the upper metal roof and was smoking exterior and causing the paint to bubble and crack open. Fire was put out by the local fire department and no injuries. Most of the damage is on the passenger interior and exterior, but other unknown damage and white dust was seen near the airbag areas too. Sidenote - the current recall on the passenger side sun visor for this vehicle was repaired at the local dealership 3 weeks ago.
