There is a water leak in the rear cargo compartment of the jeep. Searching on-line I saw that there were numerous complaints of water leaking which may cause an electrical fire. There was suppose to be a recall on 2014 - 2016 Jeeps but when I entered my VIN # it did not come up. I am afraid my vehicle will catch on fire with this water leaking.

The auto start/stop feature does not properly function causing the car to shut off when we're at a full stop. I have to switch gear to park then re-start the car. The hood sensor doesn't register even if it's completely closed . The warning light on the dashboard will say it's open even when it's not.

The vehicle was parked inside the shop and I was vacuuming out the rear cargo area of a 2016 jeep grand cherokee (I was a detailer for for a local jeep dealership) when the struts for the rear gate gave out and the door dropped and landed across my back. I have been out of work since the incident, have recently had back surgery and am currently collecting disability pay.
