The sunroof on my less than 1 month old 2014 grand cherokee exploded while going down the interstate with no other cars around and no overpasses above me. It just shattered into a thousand pieces. It sounded like a shotgun blast. Chrysler doesn't seem to think they're responsible for replacing it.

I have been leasing a 2014 jeep grand cherokee for roughly ten months. Throughout that time, I have been notified at least three times of active safety recall notices for my vehicle. My vehicle shows computer modules broken which as a result has disabled my air bags. In addition, my vehicle has a safety recall for a brake booster and now an inoperative vanity lamp which may cause a fire. My vehicle is entirely and completely unsafe to drive and chrysler jeep is not taking the appropriate immediate action to rectify this event. I am being forced to drive a vehicle with possibly deteriorated brakes, and disabled air bags.
Vehicle traveling at 5 MPH, A/C on max, fan speed at highest setting. A loud "pop", followed by a rush of refrigerant through the vents. The vents had been pointed directly at my face and I immediately started choking. Within 3 seconds, the entire interior had been flooded with this dense fog of refrigerant. I could not see, I could not breathe, I thought my jeep was trying to kill me. I managed to stop the vehicle, open the door and exit before I choked to death. I opened all of the doors and let the vehicle "air out" before getting back in to drive home. The vehicle is being serviced at the dealer right now. The failure is a leak in the evaporator coil.
The headlights retain moisture or ice on the interior areas for extended periods of time while driving and parked. This definitely blocks the light transmission through to the exterior for proper and safe driving vision. This has happened many times since the november incident and I have reported to chrysler and the dealership, gandrud in green bay wi, every time and documented each with pictures of the exact problem. The dealer has performed the silly test that chrysler requires: having the vehicle sit indoors heated for 20 minutes so see it the water clears. Mine did not totally clear at all however the dealer said it was within the "guidelines" of being ok by chrysler's rules. This is ridiculous. I just purchased a highly priced vehicle and I should leave it sit in a heated garage so the lights work! I do believe cars are meant to be driven on the road in the day and night. Chrysler certainly does not care about the safety of the customer who works hard to pay for this machine that is very faulty. I have always owned a jeep and am very disappointed in this safety issue. It must be resolved and I will keep at this until it is. I know many others have had this problem as seen on the internet. The second visibility issue is the wipers and the way the windshield defrosts. The wipers are placed so that the ice or snow when driving stays frozen and is not heated to defrost properly. I have replaced the wipers after only driving for a few days in winter weather! I could not see. That helped some but not the defrost problem as stated. It is also very hard to remove the snow and ice from the front area under the wipers. My old 1999 jeep had none of these problems. My grandson is still driving it. Perhaps I should ask to borrow it. Certainly chrysler engineers can do better than this.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that when the air conditioning system was activated, it would only disburse air at temperatures of 130-150 degrees fahrenheit. The vehicle was taken for diagnosis however, the dealer was unable to diagnose the defect. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacture was contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 3,000. The current failure mileage was 5,981.
The side mirrors completely block my vision on both sides. When pulling up to a stop sign I cannot see a vehicle or pedestrian to the right or left when in line with the mirrors. The mirrors are too big.
