Jeep Cherokee Reviews

I wanted an SUV that had 4x4 and got decent gas mileage and the Jeep Cherokee has 4x4 and with it not being a full size SUV it would get pretty decent gas mileage which it does. I chose this vehicle because of the incentive that was given at purchase. I also wanted something that was going to be a smooth ride and quiet. So far the experience has been good. Comfortable ride and does very well in the snow too in 4x4. I drive approx 50-60 miles per day and fill up every 6 days. Have had for a little over a year and have had no issues. However, I would change the headlights. I love the bulbs but I do not like the design of them. They are too slanted. I believe the engine is a 3.2 and wish it was more of a 4.0 or at least a little bit bigger than the engine that is in it now. My vehicle also does not have GPS and wish that it did.

33,500 miles on 2016 Jeep Cherokee, 20 months old so still under 36 month, 36,00 mile bumper to bumper warranty. Has been back to the dealer for several issues. But latest is the noises in the B Pillars. Dealership... After several visits... Called in the Regional FCA rep who said it can't be fixed. Offered me $5,000 "trade in assistance". But catch is that I have to buy a new FCA vehicle from the dealership.

Jeep Cherokee - Traded up from 07 Highlander. [Same size frame.] Jeep is cramped and also with little storage in rear. When cruise on - you can't read the odometer. I also don't like the auto stop and start - would like to turn it off permanently and not every time I get in car.

The quality of the Jeep Cherokee is suspect. I have had the Jeep in to the shop on numerous occasions for recalls and problems. This is the first vehicle I have taken a lifetime warranty out on because I suspect there will be expensive repairs down the road. Had to have the radio, which contains the "brains" (GPS and all other controls) replaced early on under warranty. The 4 cylinder is terribly underpowered and as a consequence gas mileage is poor. The 9 speed transmission is cumbersome and jerky. Safety features are impressive and about the only thing worth the money on this vehicle.

I am a staunch Jeep lover, currently drive a 2011 Cherokee which handles great, good get up and go, roomy and nice to look at. Plus better gas mileage than most SUVs.

My jeep is a 1993 and it's still in good shape. The paint on it is not so good, but the ride is good. I've never had a Jeep Cherokee before this one. It was old when I bought from a person I knew a few years ago. I'm still driving it! The interior is somewhat worn but seat covers took care of that. I will definitely look into buying one when I look for a new car.

The Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk rides surprisingly well for off-road suspension. Interior is well designed, with the use of quality materials. Seating is supportive and comfortable. Controls are well placed. The 4 wheel drive is responsive and sure-footed.

My 2014 Jeep Cherokee Lattitude has less than 36000 miles (December 2016) when I was told that the tires were worn and needed to be replaced. In August of 2017 the battery died and I was told I needed a new one, still not 36000 miles. From the beginning summer of 2015 a horrific Odor came anytime the air conditioner came on (and still does but not as bad). I am told that it is a defect in the air conditioner that collects water that goes bad or creates a mold. WHAT??? Now the upholstery on both front seats are tearing at the seams and the volume of padding in the upholstery is decreasing greatly. NOW just at 36000 miles!!! Don't you think that a car should last more than 2 to 3 years?

Purchased a 2017 Jeep Cherokee in December of 2016. We have had nothing but problems with this vehicle. Shifting patterns are horrible. We have had it to the dealer numerous times and have been told that we are the only people complaining about the shifting. One day, pulling out on the highway with plenty of room, the Jeep almost stalled, we had to pull over to the side of the road to get out of the way of traffic. The other day, went to pull out from a stop sign, stepped on the accelerator, nothing happened. All the sudden, it jumped forward into traffic, had to slam on the breaks to avoid getting hit from the side. The person, behind, almost rear-ended us. Forget about using this vehicle to drive up hills, even small ones. It downshifts, goes up over 4000 rpms, then almost feels like it is going to stall. Going down hills, it revives up and goes 10-15 miles faster. We took a list of 9 things wrong with the Jeep, the dealer said that there is nothing they can do.

I bought Jeep Cherokee about 2 years ago, I was big fan of Jeep and did not believe the negative reliability reviews. I wish had not done that, the car essentially since I bought it does not start when the weather is hot. Unlucky for me I live in North East where goes over 80 degrees. Only few days a week in summer when the issue happens. As a result dealer always claims the issue cannot be reproduced and check in engine doesn’t give them info to fix it. You figured FCA would step up to fix it but they have not. They refuse to suggest any alternative strategy other than take it to dealer. The car is safety hazard. I am afraid the car will stall in middle of a highway. At this I wish had the read reviews and stayed away from FCA products.

I am currently driving a 2016 Jeep Cherokee Latitude with just as little as 14,000 miles on it. I’m lucky to say that I will be returning it in January. This is my 4th car at 24 years old and I had gotten the Jeep new because I’m trying to avoid being stuck with paying for small inconveniences like plastic trim falling apart and electric systems going, I had a 2004 Volkswagen Passat and I have not had any issues with it as much as the new Jeep. I do not recommend this car to anyone. This has been a nightmare which is finally going away soon. Oh and the service department never cares about the customer and the car. I will definitely go back to Volkswagen. Their service is a lot better and they seem to take pride in their work.

Wish I never bought 2015 Jeep Cherokee. It has major transmission issues. It has trouble shifting and sometimes reaches 60 mph before the first shift. It cannot climb smallest hills much less larger highway hills in vt, without shifting difficulty. Now even straightaways give it trouble. Noticed problems soon after purchase. Brought it back to dealer who made minor improvements but issue remains. Now they say there's nothing more they can do. They also refuse to change transmission. Will never buy Jeep product again.

I purchased my 2014 Jeep Cherokee in April 2017 with 19,000 miles on it. I've owned the vehicle 5 months and at 24,950, I was driving along at the speed of 25 MPH when the transmission service, engine, ABS and stability lights came on. My car downshifted. This was very scary. I brought it to the Jeep Service Department that day to be told that it needed a software update (TPM flash). What a joke. I reviewed the vast comments from multiple websites only to find out that the 9 speed transmission is faulty and the software updates (all 21 of them) are a bogus excuse for the Chrysler-Jeep Corporation failing to do the right thing and buy back these defective vehicles. I took the vehicle home and the next morning, I started the vehicle up and all of the same warning lights came on again. I was unable to get my car to drive in reverse. When attempting to shift, there was an odd clicking noise.

Jeep Cherokee Latitude battery/electrical failure. I switch all lights to NOT turn on when getting in and out of car. However, at 8,000 miles I've needed 3 jumps within 24 hours. This is first American car I've bought in 20 years. BIG mistake. I'm making less money than I did when 30 years old. Now, 59 considered "overqualified" for a US job which Visa illegals are obtaining the PROFESSIONAL JOBS now. I'm in HR/Recruiting so I see it first hand. I'm living in the back of the Jeep Cherokee to keep up payments and credit. Only working part-time on 1099 because companies won't hire full-time and pay benefits for someone over 50. I bought the NEW car to avoid issues of used car because I'm sleeping in the back of the Jeep. But, big mistake buying American car: NEW or USED.

I am very disappointed in the Jeep product. The past 2 Jeeps we have had have had problems before 42,000 miles. The 2015 Jeep Compass had a transmission issue at 21,000 miles. When it was tested, the dealership said nothing was wrong because the computer did not record the issue. We were stranded on the highway in limp mode on vacation! We traded it in because we did not feel safe. These should have been recalled because I see more and more reviews online with the same issue.

DO NOT PURCHASE FROM them! I bought a brand new 2015 Jeep Cherokee and it has already given me two major problems! Mind you my Jeep hasn't even hit 33K miles. The first problem was a transmission problem and the second, a defective shifter! I have not only had to deal with an unsafe vehicle but the terrible customer service! The people who work here are very unknowledgeable and the last guy I talked to was very rude and implied I was a liar because he kept saying "He'd check the last phone call" because he didn't believe I had been told my rental car would be reimbursed. It has been an awful experience dealing with this agency and the only advice I have to say is do your research before buying any Jeeps because you'll probably end up dealing with defective cars and horrible customer service!

I have a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Yesterday I had trouble trying to start it. It was acting like it was fuel starved. I had it towed into the local Jeep dealership. They called me this AM and said it was the fuel pump module. They said, and this was confirmed by Jeep, that it was not covered by the powertrain warranty. Now the powertrain warranty is for 60k and my Jeep is only 59k... But they say no this part isn't included even though it's part of the engine. This is the 2nd warranty issue I've had. Last year I had a vibration in the rear end and they said that the driveshaft was damaged... They claimed it was road damage and wasn't covered. Excuse me... But isn't Jeep supposed to be a 4-drive vehicle? Someone told me that JEEP stood for Just Extra Expensive Parts... Boy were they right. This is the first... AND LAST... Jeep I'll ever buy. Jeep = JUNK!

I bought my 2017 Jeep Cherokee (2.4 liter with the 9 speed transmission) last November 2016 and so far it has been in the shop 3 times for the same issue: problems with the transmission. The car will not shift down when going up hill. It jerks into gear and sometimes it just will not get into drive or reverse. Going up a hill on the freeway, I'm doing around 45 and when i try to pass someone I have to press on the gas almost all the way to the floor. The engine revs to about 4500 rpm red line is at 6000 and with a clunk the car shifts down to a lower gear so i can pass. The dealer just keeps on reprogramming the transmission computer every time and to no effect. Soon it will be my fourth time with the same problem and then I will be applying for the LEMON LAW. This car is a REAL LEMON.

I bought my Jeep Cherokee in 2014. The first few years were great, aside from a few recalls. However, November 2016 I was driving to the gym, made it about .3 a mile until I got an error saying, "Shift to desired gear". A few seconds later, my car came to a slow stop. Very dangerous as I was in the middle of a busy intersection. The power was still working, however the engine stopped. I brought it to a Jeep dealership and they tried to replicate the issue with no success. After more than 8 hours (and no rental car provided), they told me they couldn't do anything.

What a horrible experience!!! I bring my jeep 2017 Cherokee in for check engine light. The service writer (Amitol I think was his name, west Indian gentleman) tells me it shouldn't be a problem. Around 3 still no response so I called in and he tells me the car was in an accident and they won't replace the automatic grill sensor!! Accident?? What accident? I get there and the mechanic tells me, 'You were sold a lemon. That's why I don't buy my cars from these dealers especially this one because they all lie.' I didn't buy my car there anyway due to all the negative reviews. He shows me the car is missing some plastic clips that as far as I know were always there. Now they're missing and broken piece of plastic way at the bottom. With those two pieces of information he concludes the car was in a wreck and they won't replace the part.

Bought a brand new Cherokee in December of 2015. One year and two weeks with less than 10,000 miles later the transmission starting acting up (locked in 4th gear). Dealer reflashed computer and acts like it is normal maintenance. On the drive home (less than 10 miles) the problem repeats itself. A new computer was ordered and three weeks later it arrived and was installed. Three weeks after that the transmission locks up again and I was told it would take 2 more weeks to get the valve body to replace. Contacted Jeep customer care and after finally getting in touch with a person they agreed to a rental car. Well I get a call today saying that on the test drive the transmission went out (blocking an intersection) and had to be towed back. Now the transmission will be replaced in about 2 weeks.

I bought my 2015 Jeep Cherokee with 24 miles on it. From early on it has had an issue with the transmission. It basically "clunks", literally falters between gears at times during which it doesn't accelerate. Started just between 3rd and 4th but now does it between other gears. Have noted this everytime I take the vehicle in for service. Repeatedly told that until the check engine light comes on and the computer tells them what is failing, they aren't allowed to fix it. I will NEVER buy a Jeep again. So discouraged. I bought the "top" of the line, Limited Jeep Cherokee with the 3.2 engine and while it's got great bells and whistles, I hate to drive the car and I'm still paying for it. I still owe more than what I can get to trade it in, I won't sell it to a friend because of this issue.

My 2013 Grand Cherokee has a rear window leak that runs down the inside window into the wiper unit. Jeep would only cover it under the "basic" warranty (3 yrs/36K). Even with my extended "Lifetime" warranty, they would not cover the leak as I am past the 36k. We have 9 cars and I have NEVER know a front or rear window too loose. It's seal. REALLY JEEP?? With the recalls on both my Grand and '07 Wrangler, I will never buy another Jeep or related product. Not made like they used to be!

I bought my Cherokee brand new from Heritage Dodge/Jeep/Chrysler/Fiat of Owings Mills, MD. For the last 10 months, my vehicle has been shutting off while driving. In addition to shutting off while in motion, it is very jerky, hesitant, my 4x4 system has failed out of nowhere, and both the dealer and manufacturer have no idea, nor care to, fix it. My car is still under warranty with less than 35,000 miles. FCA customer service is a joke. I had to escalate to a manager with a certified letter with hopes to getting results before I sue the company in totality for selling a vehicle with known issues. I should have done more research before purchasing this vehicle because I see nothing but horror stories. A class action lawsuit needs to be filed against this manufacturer for putting customers' lives at risk.

In June of this year I purchased a 2015 Jeep Cherokee latitude. Four months into purchase I was on the side of the road. In rush hour traffic I found myself not going anywhere. The engine light came on and the 4x4 displayed a temporary unavailable light. As I sat on the side of the road crying I was helpless. I managed to get to a parking lot escorted by roadside assistance. The jeep was towed to Jeep, where it remains. The frustrating part, is I don't have a car. My car is my way to get my son to school and myself to work. I am a case manager so my car is heavily relied on for my job, my income. The dealership is charging me 120.00 just to figure out what's wrong, but it's obvious a transmission issue. So that is 120.00 dollars I don't have. Being a single mother that is a lot of money. It's frustrating beyond words. I can only hope my review helps someone else.

Bought 2014 Jeep Cherokee latitude May 2014 with 7 miles on it. It has been to the shop 16 times. I started at Ward Chrysler in Carbondale. They saw it so many times they refused to see it any more. I then went on to 3 more dealerships. When my car had 100 miles on it, it started shifting irregularly. I took it to the shop, "Recall Fix". This happened 5 more times within a few months. They replaced over a dozen parts all the way up to a complete wiring overhaul. This still didn't work correctly. I was then driving with my family on the interstate and it completely stalled causing us almost to be hit by a semi truck.

I've had my 2015 JEEP LATITUDE for 15 months. I leased it brand new MAR 2015, Jacksonville Chrysler Jeep. Wanted something with a rear cargo area but 2nd set of seats, low payment and low residual, and shot for 25mpg. I planned on taking it into retirement in next year. From the beginning I noticed what I called an "inefficient' transmission", never seemed to decrease RPMS commensurate with the speed. A BIT "jerky" but thought it was a quirk of the model or brand. I drove to Ft. Lauderdale, FL last week, 290 miles each direction. Typical feel of the drive all the way down. NO problems. Coming back on a SUN, about 25 mins. into the trip, the SERVICE TRANSMISSION light came on. Called the dealership back in Jacksonville, no service people on duty, talked to a sales "type" manager. He said it would be okay.

DO NOT BUY A JEEP! I bought my Jeep 15 months ago - within that 15 months my 2014 Jeep Cherokee has been in the shop 12 TIMES!!! That is about once every month! It has needed a new exhaust within a month of owning it, a new belt, new PRNDL module and lots more! AND to top it off so many recalls. I contacted Jeep about all these issues I have been having and it is like talking to a wall! They are extremely rude and could care less. We have been playing phone tag. When I do talk to them they just say we will get back to you in 24 hours...! I have asked multiple times to talk to a supervisor and they say this will put in for one to call me. I have yet to talk to a supervisor (and this has been going on for over 4 months now...) So if you like to take your brand new car into the dealer every month and deal with awful customer service then buy a JEEP! If not - I TOTALLY recommend finding a different vehicle!

Purchased a brand new 2015 Jeep Cherokee Latitude October 2015. The transmission never seemed right like the shift points were wrong. Now after recall computer flash done by the dealer the transmission slips and is getting worse. Informed that I need a new transmission at 11thousand miles. Dealer laughed when I asked about trade in. Showed me how the Kelly Blue Book Value was less than half of what I paid a year ago... Jeep needs to buy these lemons back! Can't believe they have gotten away this long.

I bought a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk in August 2014. This was a Certified Pre-Owned Jeep with 7,000 miles on it for $25,999. The going price $39,999. Little did I know Eastchester Chrysler in the Bronx, NY sold me a defective Jeep. My Jeep has been in the dealership repairs about 8-10 times. 4 times on a flatbed. Problem with the Jeep. My dashboard light goes off and on until the battery is completely dead. When the flatbed came to they had to give it a little charge just to move it in the position it was in. When he put the jumper cables on my Jeep I had to hurry up and get the break of in order to get it on the flatbed. First time my Jeep was taken to the dealership all they did was charged the battery. Second time they replaced the battery. All the other times they would keep the Jeep a few days then tell me to come the Jeep because there is nothing wrong with it. Guess where my Jeep is today? In the Chrysler shop.

My daughter leased a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trail Hawk new. Twice while traveling on two interstate highways the Jeep's automatic transmission suddenly and without warning failed. The result... she was left stranded on the side of the highway in the middle of the night for several hours waiting for an authorized tow truck. The Jeep was towed to our Jeep dealer and we were informed that the computer module controlling the transmission failed. The second time the transmission failed occurred during rush hour traffic on route 95 on the Connecticut/New York state line (one of the most dangerous roads in the country). She had to move suddenly across three lanes from the left lane to the breakdown lane without power by rolling across the path of 16 wheelers traveling at high speed.

2015 Jeep Cherokee limited (limited, how about elimination)! Where do I start? Ok, ready....

Just wanted to warn Jeep owners or possible Jeep owners about my experience with a 2014 Jeep Trailhawk. After 4 months of ownership, my wife was involved in a head on collision where a man ran his truck into her. My pregnant daughter and 14 month old grandson were also in the vehicle. I am a firefighter and was the first on scene to set up command on the accident. Imagine my horror when I found my family involved. Let me just say that thankfully, all were transported to the ER and suffered minor injuries. No thanks to the airbags as none of them deployed.

I decided to make this post in regards to my recent issues with Jeep. But first I would like to start by saying that I love Jeep. I have had quite a few, and I love the Wrangler and always have. Fast forward to my current situation. I purchased my Jeep Cherokee in March. 2 weeks after I bought it I was taking it to the shop for hard shifting, and bucking. The dealership told me they just needed to "reset" it so I went along with it. April it's back in the shop and it's worse this time. Take it back and again we "reset" it. May came and the car's engine light came on, it stalls out in traffic and I almost get hit trying to take my son to school.

2015 Jeep Cherokee - 2 recalls, transmission shifts like garbage, flat spot with acceleration and my GPS does not work... Thank God I leased this garbage.

20k miles into our 2014 Jeep Cherokee we have to replace the engine. The car was problematic from about 15k and the transmission would lag from brand new. This car is horrible, and the only thing that would fix this car is getting a refund of some sort, but that would never happen.

My 2014 Jeep Cherokee was fine until July 1st 2015, with 48,000 miles on it, when it started dropping out of gear and going into neutral while driving down the road. I took it to Country Jeep in Oxford, PA where they had it in the shop for 5 days and did a "flash" that cost me $100. 1 week later it did the same thing again (actually 12 times in 3 hours while I was trying to get it back to the service dept). They replaced the transmission controller (after 1 week in shop). It started doing the same thing again within 24 hours after I picked it up. This is an extremely unsafe issue to have and I'm glad that I have not had an accident because of it. It's back in the shop for the 3rd time right now... how do I get this fixed once and for all???

Bought a new 2015 Jeep Cherokee latitude in WA state from Dick Hannah Jeep. I read reviews religiously and found lots of great things about it. Fast forward a few months Jeep had a major recall on the transmission software and airbags software. On my first oil change they performed there transmission software update and airbag update. I noticed a difference right away with the transmission shifts and throttle difference. I called Jeep and asked how it was supposed to make the transmission last longer (which was the reason for the update) because it was shifting really weird. They said it has a "learning period" after the update to adjust to the drivers habits.

I immigrated from the RSA in Dec 2014 to Melbourne Australia. I purchased a Jeep Cherokee Longitude thinking this was my first choice of a family vehicle for safety aspects and to navigate me around the country as I am a foreigner. I paid cash for this vehicle and this vehicle had issues which needed to be rectified. The Sat Nav does not pronounce the street names correctly example going from one destination to another. It takes me across the ocean. Every time I take the vehicle to Jeep I keep getting the same story that Jeep is working on the software update. The paint work on the Jeep is not up to standard. Going on for 7 months of having the vehicle the paintwork that has been done, the paint work done is worse than before i.e. there is no orange peel left.

We bought a Jeep Cherokee Sport and 8 days after we bought it, while I was driving, the lights and alarm started to go off. The Check Air Bag, Check Brakes, and Check Air Pressure warning kept flashing. The second day it did it again but this time the car stopped right in its track and wouldn't go. It kept telling me the vehicle needed to be stopped. I managed to turn it off and then turn it back on and park it before it did the same thing again. It would not turn on but the lights on the dash and screen and the radio would not go off. I called Covert and they said they were sending Enterprise Rental to pick me up and gave me the # to Roadside Assistance.

I leased a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Limited with the Mopar 8.5-inch radio. After 4000 (4 months) the radio blew. I took it to get serviced at Riverdale in the Bronx. They told me the radio unit had a short and burned. Then they told me they had to re-order the part. They could not give me a loaner or a rental because it was not considered a safety issue, so they gave me the car back - this time with no radio and just a big hole where the radio used to be.

Feb 2015 my 2014 Jeep Cherokee lost power while traveling on Thruway. Electric stays on but speedometer reads 0. Messages come about not being able to shift gears while in motion and 4wd is not available. I was not shifting, and neither attempting to go into 4wd. Had to pull over, shut down, and start up again. It happened again June 2 on Thruway. Same messages. Again had to pull over, shut down, and start up. Both times could have ended up poorly when you think about it. Happened again 2 days ago. This time while pulling into my driveway. It's at dealership now. They will probably tell me same thing as last 2 times. No "codes" come up on diagnostic computer and it doesn't happen when they drive it.

Bought jeep Cherokee sport, new car, in 2/2014. Transmission problems from 1st month I had vehicle. Dealer overlooked fact car needed transmission upgrade, by 2/2015 upgrade done... Transmission was worse. Dealer replaced faulty part inside transmission module. Vehicle still drives poorly and engine ticks.

I just received yet ANOTHER recall on my 2012 Jeep Cherokee. I work hard and wanted a good dependable car since I travel from Long Island to the Adirondacks to care for my parents... I am so disappointed that I left Ford for Jeep. I am sick over the fact that this recall is putting my life on the line. DO NOT BUY A JEEP! I have tried to get in touch with Chrysler but there are no links to contact...

I have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee with about 20,000 km on it. In the past few weeks the liftgate has been opening intermittently on its own. I thought at first it was the key fob but it opens even when the key is in my hands, i.e. not in my pocket or accidentally pressed. I took it to a dealership. They could not find anything and sent me away. Now whenever I put the car in park the liftgate opens. The key is in the cup holder so it is not being pressed at all. Does anyone else have this problem? Have you found a solution?

Yesterday I noticed a large quantity of motor oil on the driveway and on garage floor. I found the bottom of car saturated with motor oil by oil pan. I took new 2014 Jeep Cherokee to dealership and they verified that a part was probably cracked on the oil filter assembly. Currently I was told that jeep has had this issue and there is a two week backlog to get the replacement. I can drive it and take a chance on it catching fire or park it for at least two weeks. I did not buy a car to just let it sit because there are no replacement parts. Guess what Jeep can do with their warranty. I was refused a loaner car for the two weeks and told to rent a car. Jeep will never see me again nor Greenway dealership. This situation of cars with Greenway reminds me of another encounter with this dealership.

I purchase a new Jeep Cherokee on the 31/1/2015 - four weeks later the transmission broke down. They told me they would replace the transmission if there was one in the Australia - there was not, so they told me they would repair the one in the car. They did that then rang me on 16/4/2015 and said, "Had taken for test run and still breaking down". Now they're going to find a new replacement transmission - who knows how long that would take seeing there was not one in Australia to start with. I spoke to the dealership and ask for a changeover or refund because I bought a faulty product and the time frame for repairs, they (declined) 19/4/15 still no car.

Purchsed 2015 Jeep Cherokee Sport a few months ago, took it in for recall. Got it back drove a few days and malfunction light came on and had some jerking whenever in drive. I took it back to shop last week and was advised vehicle still not ready.

In June 2010 I bought a Jeep Cherokee Limited (also known as a Liberty in some countries). This vehicle had the following MAJOR issues that required tow truck assistance: Major fuel line leak; Turbo inlet failure; major coolant leak (inside the vehicle); Total engine failure; Transmission failure. This vehicle also had the following MINOR issues (this shouldn't happen on a new vehicle): Failure of seatbelt tensioner; Rattling in drivers door; Faulty rain sensor; Radio clock resets; Loss of all climate controls; Bash plate falling off; Loose external mirrors.

I recently purchased a 2014 Jeep Cherokee with a 3.2 l engine, a nine speed transmission and a trailer towing package. Shortly after I purchased the vehicle, I could feel a slight vibration in the steering wheel and could hear a low droning sound when the RPM was at 1250 with a slight positive throttle pressure. The sound and vibration occurred at the same RPM in all gears that hit that same range. Now 6 months later, I have approximately 8000 km on the vehicle and the vibration and sound have increased to the point I can feel and hear it every time the engine hits 1250 RPM. This unfortunately occurs at approximately 30 kph, at 45 kph and 60 kph which is all the speeds that we travel while driving in the city. The sound and vibration do not occur while driving at highway speed as those gears do not coincide with 1250 RPM.

I purchased a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. The check engine light turned on. I took it into the dealership and worked on it for 2+ hours. They were going to perform so update. The advisor stated that they fixed it, however during their test drive the light came back on. It was their closing time and the advisor said "you can leave it or bring it back in the morning." I asked "Is it safe to drive?" He replied that it would drive like it did before. So I started home and 2 miles from the dealership the vehicle started jerking/bucking. So I tried to turn around and the transmission completely died in the middle of the road. I could not move from on coming traffic. I almost got T-boned. Roadside assistance came an hour later and had it flat bedded back to dealership. I had to pay the flatbed drive $20.00 for ride home.

I loved my 2014 jeep cherokee when I saw it at the dealership. No problems the first 6 months other than an occasional jerk when the auto transmission slipped. My problem is the radiator fluid that keeps leaking on my carport. I have had it in the shop at least 5 times in the last 6 months or so for this same problem. They have had it there from one to 14 days each time. They can't figure out where the leak is coming from. They have changed several parts. The have tried to fix it. It also has had the transmission flashed and computer flashed (updates) several times. Sometimes the transmission still jerks a bit but my biggest concern is the radiator fluid leak is getting worse. Now the temperature is starting to go up higher as I drive it. We had to add anti freeze tonight to keep it from overheating. There is a rubbing noise coming from the steering wheel on the inside of the vehicle. You always smell the hot antifreeze dripping on something inside the motor.

I purchase my 2014 Jeep Cherokee in April 2014 and in August on the express way, my Jeep Shut off. Thank GOD I was able to make it to the soft shoulder. It shut off again in Nov. & Dec. on Christmas Day. My Jeep has been in the shop for 40 days altogether. The Dealership keep saying Transmission problems. Read up on New Car Lemon Law. Stay Prayed Up.

I bought a Jeep Cherokee Limited for $38k last year and here have been the problems with it: cruise control - no matter what you set the cruise to, if you go downhill, it will not brake or hold you back. I've had my parents in the car and they've seen it get up past 86 mph even when its set to 70 mph. The Jeep went back to the shop twice over this issue and I was told nothing could be replicating although right after taking it home, I was able to get it to do it with my parents in the car. This is really unsafe. Radio duplicating MP3 files and some times triplicating them. It would have the same song list on the SD card or flash drive many times. After turning on car, it would do this. They tried to software update it and fix it 3-4 times. It was fine until recently, I saw that it had started doing it again.

I bought a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Limited on Jan. 27th, 2015. I got up the next morning and drove it less than a half of a mile (it seemed to be running fine although it seemed to be a little louder than it was previously) when the check engine light came on. My husband took it to the dealership that same day and the car is still there today, Feb. 2nd. The service department has tried two different things neither of which worked. My husband spoke with the service department manager who said he was then talking to Chrysler about the problem which makes we feel that they do not know what is wrong with it. So, I have driven my brand new car about 5 miles and had it for about 12 hours before the problem started. The dealership does not know when I will get the car back. I am VERY disappointed and angry.

On our 2014 Jeep Cherokee Latitude a "Rubbing" noise began coming from the steering system. We took it on 1/6/2014 to the dealer (Car Pros Renton WA) where we purchased it for diagnosis and repair. It was returned to us on 1/7/2014 with no repair made and we were told the parts were on order. As of 1/23/2014 the parts are not in and they have no idea when they might be delivered to their parts and service department. This is relatively new vehicle. We do not understand how a manufacturer and dealer of new car do not have repair parts readily available. It is unlikely we would recommend or purchase a Jeep or Chrysler product in the future.

9/20/14 purchased new 2015 Jeep Cherokee Latitude. Initial problem was transmission shifted all the time or hesitated to shift or did not shift at all. Back to dealership in Oct. Their fix was software update and to tell me the transmission was a "learned system" and may take to 5000 miles to get it. That update solved most of the at speed or acceleration problems.

After driving home from work I parked my 2014 Jeep Cherokee in my covered parking spot and did not go out again due to the extreme cold that Dallas TX was experiencing. The next day, when I went to my Jeep and start it, I noticed that there was a hole and all of the glass on either side of the back window shattered and had fallen out. The middle part of the window was shattered but held in place by privacy tinting. I have had the Jeep since the end of August and never abuse my vehicles. There are no children/teens in the area I live to cause damage to property.

Where to even start!! I got a brand new 2015 Jeep Cherokee from Bayside Jeep Cherokee in Queens NY. Less than two months after I got the car, the engine light came on and off one day and the next day I found myself stalled on the side of the highway waiting for a tow truck for over 3 hours! They towed my car to the closest dealership (since they wouldn't tow it over 14 miles to the dealership I got the car from). The dealership in Queens was no help obviously because all they care about is their commission with selling me the car. I have been getting the end around from Chrysler, and anyone at the dealership to help me with my lemon! All they want to do is "try and fix the car". They assigned me a case manager at Chrysler who has been nothing but nasty and no help whatsoever!! I mean what kind of BRAND NEW CAR has a transmission problem for over two weeks?! I've had cars for over 10 years that never once had a transmission problem! I would NEVER EVER get a Jeep or Chrysler product again and would never ever recommend it to anyone! Save your money and get a good car - NOT A LEMON!

Purchased a 2014 Cherokee Limited March 4 2014; after driving it for 3 days I attempted to turn it back to the agency as the trans would hesitate when it attempted to downshift. When it finally would downshift it would hold in gear and not upshift, and the engine would race to over 5000 and sometimes 6500 rams before shifting again. I was advised the new trans would learn my driving habit over the next 6 weeks and not to worry. I trusted Chrysler and waited to no avail. Then was advised a software fix was available, again I trusted Chrysler and was disappointed, BUT then was told a second update would fix the shifting and it didn't. Upon phoning Chrysler customer assistance I was advised a recall was in place for my particular vehicle. Two days later customer assistance advised me that was an error, there was not a recall.

On October 22, 2014, my 2014 Jeep Cherokee's analog speedometer quit working at approximately 2800 miles. I immediately notified the dealer and took it in for service on 10/27/14. On October 28, I was told that a new instrument cluster would be installed that week and the service department would get in touch with me on 10/31/14. When I didn't hear back, I contacted the service dept. on 11/1/14. They explained that the part was not in yet. I called back on 11/3/14 and was told that the instrument clusters that Chrysler had received were to be used in new Jeeps. Mine was not expected until 11/13/14. I contacted Chrysler Customer Service and filed a complaint. After 2 or 3 more calls, I was told that they were expediting my claim and the part would be available 11/7/14. A representative from Chrysler called me back that day and said the part was still not available and they went back to their original estimate of 11/13/14. On 11/13/14, I received another call that the part was now on back order. I was not given a time frame of when it would be available.

2014 Jeep Cherokee Limited almost got my daughter and I killed on the freeway. My jeep is 3 mos old with 3500 miles on it and while driving on an overpass at 65mph the RPMs dropped to 0 and service transmission light came on and jeep stop responding. Jeep now says they want to put a new transmission in my new Jeep. Since day 1 the jeep has also been accelerating on its own, getting average 18mpg, shifting roughly just to name a few of the other problems. NEVER in 50 yrs of owning or driving cars have we ever experienced anything like this. Jeep needs to get these messed up vehicles off the road before someone dies because of their messed up product.

I purchased my 2014 Jeep Cherokee Sport in February 2014. Week 1 Jeep back the engine light came on. Then the computer dash went out. You could hear it but no way to change anything. 2014 vehicle, already problems. Return to the dealer and said needed to update the computer. Month later returned, shifts very hard. I see it as a hard jerk and the dealership Beaufort Chrysler Dodge, Beaufort South Carolina. I took it back again, again, and again with the same problem. Again they said it was a computer problem but I'm still having this problem. The car has a bad hard shifting problem. I see these problems happen to a lot of people. Recall, it SUCKS. I have called the Jeep dealer to try and get this fix. The dealership Beaufort Chrysler Dodge said that this wasn't their problem and I had 2 take it up with the Jeep dealer. Called the Jeep dealer, expressed my horrible experience. Vehicle still shifts hard, slow to get and go, hearing noise as turn the wheel. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER AGAIN will I purchase a Jeep again.

Bought a brand new 2014 jeep Cherokee sport a few months ago. Transmission shifts hard and increases in speed on its own when going downhill when you barely place your foot over the brake. One tap or two on the brake pedal and off you go. Seems to have a mind of its own. It's not a down shifting issue as much as it literally takes off on its own. Leaving you to really press hard and several times on the brakes to get it to slow back down. Setting in park, it just gives itself gas like you placed your foot on the gas pedal. Shifting thru the gears sounds like a hammer hitting...complete junk. Have only owned this vehicle for a few months and it's already been back to the dealership three times for this issue...only to be told it checks out ok and all updates are current. Jeep has serious issues with this SUV. Needs to be recalled. Several people have the same issues with this 9 speed transmission. Someone is going to get hurt one day because of these issues.

Bought a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Sport in December 2013. Couldn't pick up the car the first day because it "sat too long and needed to clean out the pipes." Took it the second day and am regretting every moment. Don't listen to the dealer when they say "Nothing to worry about, that's why it has a warranty." Well, the warranty has left me without a vehicle to drive for months and frustration that I have never experienced before:

I have bought many cars and I can truly say that this dealership has cornered the market on HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. My story: Went to look at a Jeep Cherokee and really liked a White Cherokee Limited. My salesman's name was Jeff **. Nice guy but really didn't know much about the product or pay attention to my requests. We agreed on a car and I asked what the rebate was. I was told $1000.00. He had asked me what I wanted to put down and I said nothing but would do a $1000 if he gave me 30 days. He said no problem.

This has been the WORST, MOST HORRIFIC experience I've ever had to go through!!! I bought a new 2014 Jeep Cherokee on March 25th to have it in service twice already because the engine is grinding and screeching every time we accelerate, the transmission knocks when we change gears, and there is a clicking coming from behind the dashboard every time we shift. I take the car in to be looked at to be told there is nothing wrong with the car (are you kidding me!?). To have the same problems with the engine and take it back again on May 17th, have a tech acknowledge there is a problem with the engine, have the car in the service area for over a month waiting for this invisible factory representative that supposedly came by on Monday, June 23rd, test drove the car, and said, "Yes, this is normal. This is a new engine and it’s supposed to do that." (Again, ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!??)

I hit a deer and it put a small puncture in the air conditioner. The dealership here cannot find the refrigerant in a small quantity, the large size they found cost $700! Meanwhile they say they will look again tomorrow. I'm shocked at the increase in cost just to meet the new EPA standards. I was very impressed with my Cherokee up till now. I don't know what else to do.

I have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee that has been shifting funny since I got the car in April. I called and they told me it had to "learn" and would smooth out. Not so. I was driving my normal 20 miles to work when all of a sudden the dashboard alerted "service transmission". Called the service department who said bring it in, don't go fast and if you break down call a tow truck. They said it needed a software update. Got to the service department in 1st gear (would not shift out so I drove very slow). Got to the dealer and after 5 hours waiting they told me I needed a new tranny. Now it's running ok but smoking... Ughh. Not sure if it's oil burning off or another issue. They need to pay the days I have to take off work to get this straightened out!!!!

My new 2014 Jeep Cherokee has a wobble in the front end at acceleration from a stop. Been to Dealership (3) times and leave it with them. They just say they can not duplicate the wobble/shaking as it happens intermittently. Have a case file opened with Jeep, but they just keep telling me to keep them informed, never offering a fix?? Others obviously have the same issue and Jeep seems unwilling to fix it. This should be taken care of.

New 2014 Jeep Cherokee Limited - Bought the Limited fully loaded Cherokee in December. Loved the car at first then started to notice things. The headlight condensation was first. Then the driver door handle lock release only worked half the time. The worst though was the vibration through the vehicle on acceleration especially around corners. Felt it through the Jeep and right into the steering wheel. As a retired mechanic, this did not sit well with me. The 9-speed trans also shifted poorly and would jerk the car sometimes. Took it back to the dealer who kept it all day and told me they couldn't feel any vibration. Right! They also said they couldn't duplicate the unlock failure so I said I would keep an eye on it.

Buying my 2014 Jeep Cherokee less than a month ago was the WORST mistake I have made in my life. I purchased this piece of junk on 4/17/14 and on 5/14/14 my husband took it to the dealership because it is really loud and shakes really bad when I go to pull off. Well the mechanic told us we have an exhaust leak and it is my transmission... switching from 1st gear to 2nd gear and that's completely normal. There's nothing they can do about the exhaust leak. Chrysler has an open case about it, but they have no solution so there is nothing they can do. So basically I'm out of luck. My small babies have to ride in the car smelling the fumes and because it's not considered life threatening in their eyes, I just have to wait until Chrysler comes up with a solution. I have called Corporate 4 times in 2 days and all they're offering is 4 free oil changes. I called again today and they said they're escalating it to higher management. I've called every news media I could, I called an attorney, and I'm in the process of seeing about the lemon law in my state. I've mailed the letter like the websites says. I mailed a copy to the consumer protection division and I will continue to call corporate and the news media to display this horrible company.

I bought my Jeep a year ago. It is a 2000 Grand Jeep Cherokee Laredo. It keeps stalling on me while I am driving. It also wants to kill on me. I already had the engine replaced and the computer replaced. It just started doing the same thing over again. I took to several shops. Nobody can find out what is wrong with it. I am at a loss with it. Can't keep doing this.

On July, I bought a brand new, out of the box, 2014 Grand Jeep Cherokee. A month later, while driving the steering wheel locked itself on me and the screen began telling me that the tire pressure was low. I took it back t the dealer so they could check and see what it was. All they told me was that they fixed the tire pressure and checked the steering wheel and it was fine. However this kept happening over and over again and every time I'd take the jeep back to the dealer they would practically call me crazy. Then a few months later, on Oct. 8th, while turning left at a light, the steering wheel locked itself and I crashed into a light post. Since the accident, I can barely walk. I have two herniated disks, one on my neck and the other in my lower back. And I can't pretty much do anything because I'm always in pain. Who would have thought that buying a new car would have caused me practically my life. So for whoever that was thinking to buy this car, please look for a different car because the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee is just a time bomb. That can explode and kill you at any moment. If anyone has had a terrible experience similar to mine with this vehicle, please contact me. Thank you.

2014 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 engine light & subsequent failure(s) - Unfortunately, my daughter bought a 2014 Jeep Cherokee. This decision was based on many pleased family members, friends & neighbors' level of confidence in their cars. Not the case with hers.

Wife just purchased a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Limited several weeks ago just had to have service for the transmission to relearn the memory so the trans will shift properly. Wife just picked up car and still not positive car is right. Also there is a loud click in the brake pedal when brake is released that has to be looked at and the steering wheel when turning left or right has a loud friction noise in it. Owned cars for 40 years and never had any of these problems. Wife is just not happy since she drives around 30,000 miles a year and spends a lot of time in vehicle. Anyone have any similar problems?

Over the course of a few months, I noticed that my 2006 Grand Jeep Cherokee Overland would hesitate and then rev up... surging out of a parking space and at times doing the same while putting it in to drive forward. A few months ago, my son was driving the car and while applying the brakes in traffic, the vehicle would not stop and fortunately only slightly struck the car ahead. I explained this to my husband who booed booed it. We had driven the car without any problem for months. On 1/24/2014 while we were in the city of Sanford, he became a believer. As we slowed for a traffic light and he applied the brakes, the car suddenly revved up at a high rate of speed and rammed into a Ford F250 ahead of us.

2010 Jeep Compass Sports purchased April 2010, about 90K km on it, some scratch, no major accidents. Yesterday, I went for oil change. Was told that "water pump" leaked. I had it replaced today, but was told again and the "rubber cushions" for the engine was "too old" and need to be replaced. I can't believe it. It's only 3 ½ years old (or new). How can a major part become so aged? I had a Gr Cherokee in NY 1992. The day I bought it, it was drizzling. Before I turned on the wiper, it started working by itself and would not stop. I bought a Cherokee Classic in Beijing 1996. 2 years later it left me stranded in the middle of a desert. The reason: 1 of the 16 tiny springs for fuel injection nozzles broke. The part cost Y15, but labor was 4000 + 1000 for towing.

I am so grateful I didn't buy my 2014 Jeep Cherokee. It makes me want to cry every time I make a $500 lease payment, because I leased garbage and that's the bottom line. At least for me, I get to return this vehicle if I'm still alive after owning it. The SUV is a death trap and I am waiting to be killed on the road. It does not accelerate properly at all. You literally have to floor the gas to get whatever computer program to spark and function. Then the rpms go crazy sounding like the transmission is going to blow up and then the car jerks forward with you slamming into the seat belt. It's awesome to get to experience whiplash on a daily basis. What I'm also experiencing is that when the SUV is trying to shift gears, it's like the computer doesn't know what gear to put the vehicle in so it jerks and hesitates. It is beyond scary to pull out of places because you don't know how the SUV is gonna react. I was almost hit by a city bus because my car was not moving after I pulled out on the road.

I bought my Compass new off the lot, and while it didn't live up to standard of my 2 former Cherokees, it was fine. After driving it for 4 years I have started having trouble with the CVT. there is a terrible whining noise and the warning light comes on that the transmission fluid is overheating. I stop the Jeep, let it cool down and it is fine until the next time. We took it to the dealer and they couldn't find anything wrong, so they recommended changing the fluid. We had that done 2 days ago, paid 320.00 for it, and thought it was OK.

My 1990 Cherokee Laredo has 255K miles on it. Everything works. It uses very little oil, runs great. 242 inline six is best Jeep engine ever! Factory tow package so there is a lot of metal back there and not on recall list. Cars back then were simpler and more reliable. Let's see your car/SUV go 255K/24 years and still work well. Engine has a lot of miles left on it. Then I will make it a 4.7 stroker motor.

This is our third Jeep and our second Cherokee. The last two Cherokees have had the same transmission issues requiring either all new transmissions or a rebuilding of the trans, on a 2006 Cherokee, not a very old car. On top of that, it also has some unexplainable electrical issues that I am sure will cost more than the car's worth. I know all cars have some issues, but this seems to be the exact same situation in both cars. I guess it's our bad for buying another crappy made Jeep. Good luck American-built cars, I am buying another Honda.

I brought my 2007 Jeep Commander with a 4.7 V8 into Cherokee Chrysler for a tune-up and was told that I had a warped head that needed to be replaced. I was told that Chrysler would not stand behind their 5 year/100,000 warranty because I was 5k outside of the warranty mileage, but that if I was the original owner, Chrysler would have. What difference does it make if I am the first owner? I then waited for 3 weeks being constantly told that parts were on order and the dealership could not tell me when the parts would be in or when the car would be ready. I was so mad by that time that I had the car towed to a local mechanic who had the issue repaired in a week. He told me that Chrysler knows there is an inherent design flaw in that motor's head and gaskets and has since been redesigned in the latest vehicles because of this.

I bought a Jeep Cherokee from a Zimbabwean friend who left for Australia. The Jeep was well looked after and in very good shape, it had about 90,000km. Since I bought it, this vehicle started giving me lots of trouble and it cost me a fortune to have it fixed. Now the car has 225,000km and the series of troubles just continue. If it's not a problem with the steering, then it's the air conditioner or the fuel injection or whatever you can imagine. I could make a very long list of all the problems that happened since I bought it.

My seven-year old Jeep Cherokee (only had it for two) suddenly vomited loads of oil all over my drive without warning when I started it up last week. It went into garage and they said it was a leak from the front crankshaft seal. They replaced seal and then saw it needed new timing belt. Then they were about to deliver it back to me and contacted to say that the seal had blown again (oil everywhere once again).

I bought my 1997 jeep grande Cherokee Laredo from a private seller. It seemed to run just fine. Then it started overheating. So I changed out the water pump, radiator, and fan belt for other reasons. It started stalling at stop signs and red lights. So then I had to replace the PCM (powertrain control module). I thought it would help. But now, I can be just going down the highway and it stalls out. You have to wait a few minutes before it will start up. But when you try to start it up, it sounds like it doesn't have any oil in it; but it does. I am so puzzled about my jeep. I had a '95 jeep, and it didn't give me any kind of problems.

This is the 2nd time I have had a short in the door of my 04 jeep Cherokee Larado. Lights won't shut off, messages that aren't true window won't work half the time. Jeep should have a recall as I have read many complaints for the same thing. Pay to have my jeep fixed. Sue jeep and then they might fix it.

I took my 1998 Jeep Cherokee to Jeep in White Plains, New York. My jeep was stalling sometimes on the highway going 50 miles per hour most of the time at a light, a stop sign or in slow traffic. Sometimes the car would work with no problems for couple days. After a while, the problem happened more and more. Sometimes the car would not start for five minutes after stalling; the car would always start again after a few minutes at most. Many times, my wife or I would stall in very unsafe conditions; luckily no serious problems have happened as a result yet.

I have a 2006 Jeep Liberty. While under the original warranty, I have had the front door windows replaced twice. Out of warranty, I have replaced the front window a second time and the rear windows a total of three times. The last repair of the rear window was done with the improved part (which also required that I purchase a new window).

Our 2004 Grand Jeep Cherokee has accelerated twice within the last two months when we have entered the Target parking to park. My husband was driving at the time and I was a passenger. He placed the car in neutral and it continued to accelerate at a faster rate, so he shut the car off.

My Jeep Cherokee keeps stalling out and won't start. Sometimes it stalls when driving and sometimes it stops at lights. I don't know if this is the right place to complain.

i purchased a new 2006 jeep cherokee laredo. now with 32,000 miles the rear brakes need repair; however when braking the vibrations start.mechanic said i need the rotors(brake drums) resurfaced. all 4 must be resurfaced because the drums are warped,ie defected. crysler refuses to help with defected brakes because we are out of warrenty. well my son has a newer jeep commander with hi milage ,out of warrenty,but crysler knows of drum problem and fixed it(no charge) . hey, crysler & govt officials why has a recall never been issued. buyers of crysler products beware

I have a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport that has a stalling problem. I have replaced the crank sensors and the idle control and still have the problem. Has there been any recalls on this issue for the 2000 year vehicle.

I bought my 2003 Jeep Cherokee from a used car dealer. Hours after pulling off the lot, the driver side tail light was blown. A little mad, I replaced the bulb and went on with my life. Four years later, I have replaced the bulb socket four times. It is blown again. I have been watching other Jeeps and now see this is a major flaw in the vehicle because hundreds of Jeeps have the same light blown. They need to have this recalled and fixed before someone gets pulled over on an occasion they would rather not be in. I have been pulled over in the middle of the night after coming home from work which is at local bars. I have been harassed, given DUI tests and had my vehicle searched for an hour simply for having a light on at the wrong time.

I have a 1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport. I have had it since it had 33 miles on it. Currently it has well over 136,000 miles. It has traveled up and down the East Coast, as well traveling to and from Colorado. I love my Jeep and I have always wanted to do the servicing myself. However, I never had the time to do so. It all started when I began to take off from a slopped driveway. The engine would sputter a slight stall but then regain. This went on for months without knowing what to do. I have taken it to several shops, friends and other co-workers trying to figure it all out. Lo and behold, I finally figured out what the problem was.

I purchased a 2004 Jeep Liberty. It doesn't even have 90,000 miles yet, and I am already needing a whole new transmission. What is this? Shouldn't Jeep make their vehicles last a bit longer, before such a huge repair? I am a stay at home mom and I don't drive anywhere, but to the store and back (no long travels), and I have to deal with this already. I was thinking of trading my Liberty in for the new Cherokee, but after this, I don't think I'll ever want to own another Jeep. This is just ridiculous!

2002 Jeep Cherokee ac/heater blower shuts on and off. Wiring stays hot. Afraid to run heater and ac electric system may start a fire. is there a recall on this? Who do I call?

Well, after purchasing a $16 thousand plus vehicle, it has been one dilemma or another. First, the headlight started flickering, and the inside dashboard just as well then turn off automatically. I took it the shop to get it fixed. Then I had a neighboring dealership next door fix it. What is that about? Then my husband bought tires for the vehicle, so when it had to align, a certain bolt had broken because it was rusty and old.

I have a 2000 Jeep Cherokee that keeps stalling and I have changed the crank shaft sensor, camshaft sensor and the coil pack, but I’m still having the problem with it stalling and running rough. I also have three kids that ride in this car everyday. If I or my children get hurt in this car because nobody seems to be able to figure this out, is the Jeep people going to be responsible for us or would they rather figure the problem out and let people know how to fix it? This could cause an accident and cause people to get hurt.

In February, my 2006 Jeep G Cherokee Laredo began to act as though it was going to stall. I took it into the shop to be fixed. In April, it began to stall when I was breaking or slowing down to make a turn. It would stall before cranking up. I took it in then also, I was told that it was possibly the transmission and that I was going to have to pay to get it fixed. I have since then found out that this has not only been happening to me, but to other people, and it is a recall - but not for the 2006 Jeep. I was headed home today, May 9, 2006, and on the Highway FL Turnpike. All of a sudden, my Jeep stalled and would not crank. I almost got hit by a truck.

I own a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Laredo. Recently, I have experienced the vehicle stalling in gear and suddenly accelerating. I don't know what to do since I see that others are having similar problems with their Jeeps. This is very dangerous and I don't see any recalls on this issue for this vehicle.

My new Jeep Cherokee 2008 has a thermometer in the dash - pretty standard. Why would Jeep put it in to take 15 minutes before it starts reading? How nuts.

I purchased a 2006 Jeep Cherokee in Amador county in 2006. Every time it rains and I open my car doors and my upholstery get wet it stains. My car look awful. I had it scotch guarded after I bought it when it happened. I have taken it to my local dealership sever times to have the stain taken out. Now it is really bad and they are out of business. Is there any kind of jeep recall for this? I have heard of other people having the same problem. We should have been warned if this is a defect of Jeeps upholstery.

Purchased a used 1998 Cherokee Laredo. Stalled on freeway and won't start in mornings. Put in new fuel pump and new battery. Had to have towed to shop. All the forums say everyone is having the same problems? Money down the toilet!!!

I am with the rest of our Jeep owners club. My driver’s side window fell down, here in North Carolina, in January, 20 degrees. I suppose this is a common problem with the Jeep Cherokee (2003). I suppose I will get ready to lay down $400.00 to have it repaired since there are no recalls on this. I can understand why our American auto dealers are losing business. I may suggest to our auto companies - think about your customers FIRST...

I have owned a 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport for the past 7 years and have been having problems for the last 1 1/2 years. When I drive my vehicle and have to make more than a couple of stops, it dies without warning. I have to wait an average of 20-30 minutes before the vehicle will restart. I have been lucky enough to have this happen in places where I am able to be out of the way of traffic but I fear that I will not always be so lucky and cause an accident or be hit by another vehicle. All of my gauges continue to read normal during this. Are there any similar problems like this with other Jeep owners?

To sum things up I had a similar issue with an 89' Cherokee Laredo as Jamie of Nipomo CA (10/28/08). The experience was really asking questions of dealers and mechanics and getting their ideas as to what the possible causes were of rough idles and stalling. None of them came up with the most common cause for either case scenarios at all... So with a lil work on my behalf found that the temp sensor is often a cause of such issues, a twelve dollar part that they never told me about. They said everything from the iacv, map sensor, ignition system and such...

We just bought a 1997 Jeep Cherokee for my 18-year-old daughter. After a couple of days, it stalled while she was driving on a highway. She was able to pull off the side of the road and it did restart. This has happened a couple of time in the past week. We had a diagnostic test which shows nothing wrong. I see there has been a recall for the same problem, but on newer models. I really believe the older models such as the one we have is also having the very same problem. Hopefully the recall will be issued for older models as well as a search on the internet shows MANY with the same problem on older models. Thank you.

I have a 2004 Jeep Cherokee. The driver's window regulator has gone out 3 times and each of my back window regulators have gone out. The first time it went out it was covered under warranty but I have had to pay for the other repairs. The regulator/motor piece cost $275 plus labor. This is ridiculous. Jeep needs to do a recall on this as I have heard from many other Jeep owners that they have the same problem and it does not seem Chrysler is willing to help.

I have a 2004 Jeep Cherokee Special Edition with 50,000 miles. The other day, I was in Drive and stopped at a red light on a small incline. The light turned green, I stepped lightly on the gas pedal and my Jeep suddenly lurched BACKWARDS, I pressed on the brake, it continued to go backwards, I had to put the car in Park (while moving backwards) and turn off the engine. Luckily no one was behind me. Although the Jeep was in Drive it malfunctioned to Reverse and my brakes failed. It was very frightening and Ive since looked online for others who have had similar complaints and clearly, I am not the only one. Thanks everyone for posting, I thought I was losing my mind. Something needs to be done about this!

My uncle Paulino went to this shop to get a diagnosis on a problem he faced with his 1998 Jeep Cherokee on 8-11-08. An hour later a gentleman named Cesar, told him that the transmission needed replacement and that it would cost him $1,200. My uncle said, if that's the problem than they can go ahead and start the process of repairing it. Cesar did not print out a contract, nor did he take down my uncles information, he just asked my uncle to leave it at the shop. 8-12-08 afternoon, my uncle went to the shop after work to check up on his vehicle. Cesar said that they could not work on the vehicle at his shop (where my uncle left the vehicle), so they took it elsewhere. My uncle said, where exactly is it and why did you not ask for my permission? Cesar said uhm, well its in a shop in Santa Monica. My uncle asked to please give him the address so he can take the bus to check on his car. Cesar gave him an address and so my uncle took a 30 minute bus ride to the Santa Monica Shop. The shop owner said we don't know what your talking about? My uncle went back to the the original shop, told Cesar that he did not want to do business with him and to return the vehicle. Cesar said, we are already working on your car, there is nothing I can do.

The Jeep dealer cannot find the problem with my 1999 Jeep Cherokee.

I'm very disgusted with the service I received at Jeep 17. I purchased a certified 2005 Jeep Grande Cherokee with 41,000 miles around October/November 2007. The sales rep was very nice at the time and said they'll take care of any problems within a three month period. I loved the Jeep and it came with a Power train warranty and a three month bumper to bumper warranty. Well, within the three months many problems would start to occur.

I have a 2001 Jeep Cherokee that is taking all my money. At 90,000 miles the truck started surging at all speeds. I have replaced the spark plugs 2x, whole a/c system, transmission filter and fluid, fuel pump and filters, had a smoke test done looking for any possible vacuum or emission leak. I just don't understand how this is a common problem with Jeep and there is no recall for this. I read that someone has placed a sign in the window of there Jeep that reads (( lemon )). I get so angry when I keep getting screwed and there is nothing I can do about it. Well, I'm gonna put a lemon sign in my windows too............

I have replaced 3 Window regulators in my 2001 Jeep Cherokee within the past 2 years, each costing me from $250 to $330. I have talked with Chrysler about this issue and they are aware of the bad design but are not going to help me pay for the next window regulator. One time when my window regulator went out it was raining and I was on my way taking my family to the movies. The window slid down right when a truck was passing by soaking my daughter getting her all wet and muddy. I feel Chrysler needs to do a recall before someone gets seriously injured.

i have a 1996 jeep Cherokee i have taken it to 3 different garage's in the past 3 weeks and no one can find the problem that is causing my jeep to stall out in the middle of the road, even the highway going 70 miles an hour.i have a small son and am terrified that we are going to get rear ended we could be killed. i have to work but i am to terrified to drive this death trap. someone needs to take responsibility for these problems and fix them before people start dying!!!!!

Jeep needs to be punished for the danger they put people in!!! This is ridiculous. I have a 2001 Jeep Cherokee Limited for 2 months. It is used with barely 80.000 miles on it. I have put 4 new tires, tuneups beyond belief and NOW my jeep is sitting at a shop that wants me to give them 3000.00 dollars to fix my transmission!!! I have also fixed two window regulators, front driver and front passenger. Not only that, but my front 2 rotors are making my jeep shake,rattle, and roll all over the road!! I will NEVER NEVER NEVER buy jeep product again and I have taped a sign to my jeep saying Do not buy Jeeps, there ALL LEMONS! I owe 13,000.00 dollars for a Jeep that I don't even drive...My loss, Jeeps gain. And that is too bad because Jeep will get what is coming, maybe not now, but one day!!!

In October 2006 my fan blade on my jeep Cherokee 2000 fractured and also damaged the shell around the blade. My car was purchased in the states, but has been with me in Mexico since 2006 (I am a US citizen, but currently a medical student in Guadalajara, Mexico). I took it to a Jeep dealership here b/c I was certain that it would be fixed appropriately. A month later I received a notice at my mailing address in the states reporting a recall on the fan blades etc. I called the number on the recall notice and was directed to call an international Jeep number for reimbursement.

I purchased a 2001 jeep grande Cherokee certified preowned with @ 15,000 miles. The only thing positive about this purchase was the comfortable ride and the color. After about of month of driving the engine light went on only to find there was a cracked cylinder head. I complained to the dealer and questioned why would something like this would happen and they seemed unconcerned stating it was JUST a faulty part. That was the beginning of many other inconveniences and unsafe faulty parts of this costly purchase. There was a transmission problem, gas cap had to be replaced but first it had to be diagnosed which was added into the bill.

I owned a 1998 Jeep Cherokee. Within the past year, I have replaced both window regulators, left rear break fixed x 2 and a radiator ($700). Doesn't seem like much, but that was just to keep it running until I could trade it in. The front end had the death wobble so many describe. What is that anyway? It has a clicking sound in the left rear break, again. The rear end had that roar so many have described as well. It needed a new heater coil and air conditioning unit as well. Just minor stuff, right Jeep? The auto repair shop said it was falling apart at the seams.

2004 Jeep Cherokee stalling problems at all speeds. I took the car into Riverside Jeep (California) 10-31-2007 and paid 336.00 for a new IAC motor and cleaning of the Throttle body. This did not fix the problem, for the next day, the car started stalling again. Since then, I have not been able to drive the vehicle and have waited 2 weeks to take it back in since money has been tight. I have looked online and noticed that there is a sensor switch for the crankshaft that was recalled. I am upset since I have already paid 336.00 for an IAC motor when that obviously was not the problem. I'm taking it back in today, and can only hope it is not another expensive visit. My car only has 45,000 on it and it has been maintained the entire life of the vehicle. I will never buy a jeep again.

My husband was driving our Jeep Cherokee down and alley when it suddenly accelerated hitting light poles, gas meter, fencing and flying 5 feet over a porch and landing in a persons living room. The airbags never deployed.

I purchased a 2002 Grand Jeep Cherokee from Automax in Broken Arrow, OK which only had 61,000 miles. I ran a NADA vehicle history report prior to that. I was the second owner. I spoke to Chris at the customer assistance department for Jeep prior to the purchase. I got that number from the Officila Jeep Website. He said the this car had a 70,000 drive train Warranty and was still under warranty. He said I did not have to do anything to transfer it, that warranties go with the car not the person. In two months the check engine light started coming on. Automax replaced gas cap. It stopped for a while. In May 2007 the transmissions stopped while my husband was on the highway, which was dangerous.
