2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee wheels problems

Filed Aug 14, 2023 · Driver assistance, Steering · MI

I was driving along & all of a sudden my car under side make a funny sound and stopped moving forward. I am a single mother & I had my 4 year old son with me. I had to call a tow company & they took it to a repair shop. They charged me $100 to tell me the transmission was gone & metal pieces were in the transmission. Now I have tried to get it fixed because the rest of my car looks NEW. I REALLY TAKE CARE OF IT. But now I am told it cannot be fixed because you knew there was something wrong with this particular transmission so you no longer make the parts, so no one else can get hurt. Therefore, I have a very lovely car that I love but it will never run again. I spent over $20,000 for my car. Can you help me please.

It increased speed, then tried to break and the breaks locked up, then I tried to move to not hit the car in front of me and the whole front passenger side control arm snapped off causing me to loose a tire.

On 9/23/20 my 2014 grand jeep cherokee accelerated on its own causing me to crash into a fountain wall. I was parking and almost at a complete stop when my car went haywire. It felt as if I got hit from behind, my dash lit up, my engine revved real loud and my car lunged forward. There was enough force to lift my front end and place it on the 2nd tier of the fountain wall. I was in a tight parking area at the hialeah gardens building department. Please google earth the parking lot to understand the parking lot and how compact it is. I had an investigation done on my car and received a very generic response via email regarding the findings and that chrysler / jeep were not LED to believe that the incident was due to a manufacturing responsibility. Not one person has called me to discuss. Jeep is very lucky my kids were not in the car and that I didn't kill anyone or myself. Customer care has been a joke. They told me that I can request call backs but it will never happen. I have a right to know what the investigation showed on my car. My car accelerated on its own! I cannot get any response from the chrysler / jeep on the investigation of the little black box and how they came up with their decision. I believe they send these generic emails out to shut you up and hope nothing further comes about. They know we have no means of talking to anyone and get away with having defaulted SUV's. They get away with lying and being unobtainable. I have additional pictures if you need to see them

The goodyear wrangler sr-a tires have all started to dry rot and because of that the vehicle has had 2 flat tires in 3 days. The tires are 2 years old and no where near the 50,000 mile tread life. So 2 times in 3 days we where driving and we have gotten a flat thankfully not a blow out but these tires are junk and need to be recalled.

Rims will collect mud, dirt, snow and become severely out of balance. Living on a gravel/dirt road makes this a re-occurring. Requiring the inside of the rims to be washed out. Never in 54 years of driving have I owned a vehicle with this problem. It makes the vehicle unsafe to drive until the rims is washed out.

This morning while backing the vehicle out of my driveway onto the street, the steering locked and could not be turned at all. The car was at an angle to the curb on a 1-way city street, there were no obstructions. I struggled to turn the wheel at all when I put it back in drive. I switched from reverse to drive a few times trying to get out of the street and park. Finally, after struggling to turn the wheel even the tiniest bit, I put the transmission in park, shut the engine off, waited a few minutes and restarted it. The steering immediately freed up and I was able to drive to work. I reported it to the local dealer and they can't look at it until almost 24 hours after the incident occurred.
