2019 JEEP CHEROKEE Steering Problems

My vehicle is under an open safety recall 01C involving the PTU system, and there has been no remedy available for nearly a year. This defect caused a dangerous and sudden loss of acceleration while I was driving, and the manufacturer has still provided no fix, and no support through the dealership. The incident occurred when I was stopped at a red light. When the light turned green,I pressed the gas and the vehicle immediately made a loud grinding/shaking noise, shuddered violently, and lost all propulsion. The car would barely move. I was extremely lucky that there was a parking lot directly next to the intersection, and with the tiny amount of movement left,I was able to coast into it. If this failure had happened anywhere else—on a highway, in the middle of an intersection, or without a place to pull off—I could have been rear-ended or caused a collision. My safety was put at immediate risk due to this recall defect. I contacted the dealership, but they stated they could not repair the vehicle because Jeep/Stellantis had not released a remedy, parts, or service procedure for the recall. I was told multiple times that there was nothing they could do until Jeep provided a fix. After the breakdown, an independent shop confirmed the PTU failure, since the dealer still had no ability to repair it. All failed components and documentation are available for inspection. I lost use of my vehicle and was forced to take safety into my own hands. When I submitted reimbursement documentation to Jeep Customer Care, they denied it because the repair was not done at a certified dealer and did not use MOPAR parts—even though no certified repair or MOPAR parts exist for this recall. This leaves me without a safe vehicle, without a remedy, and without support. I am requesting NHTSA intervention due to the ongoing safety risk and the manufacturer’s failure to provide a timely fix and proper reimbursement for their admitted issue with the vehicle.

Driving from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, then To DC, then VA, power steering service show up and caused my jeep hard to turning. Completely unexpected. I just got them 2 month ago.

Steering powering went out. Dealerships said power steering was blown.

Vehicle is hard to turn since it is locked in to all wheel drive . I had Northtown Jeep ( dealership) look at it and they knew what it was just after one quick ride around the building. The car has 28543 miles on it and is out of warranty. They told me that the PTU was faulty and that also caused damage to the rear differential. This vehicle from day one sounded and felt a bit (odd) but I just figured that this was normal but it wasn't until this year when leaving the driveway that it got to the point that we could not even drive the car.The dealership said it would cost roughly 6800.00 to repair both the ptu and the differential, which I can not afford.

During certain temperatures my cars emergency brake light will come on, engine light the abs light all at once and the steering wheel will stiff up this used to happen to my 2004 Jeep grand cherokee now it’s with my new 2019 Jeep Laredo

Am concerned about theses vehicles even being on the roadways with no resolution to the safety recall being resolved. Reported in Jan 2025, no resolution yet. for 8 months? "Parts are not available". It appears by documentation that if you are in the states you can get a dealer to check via software to detect and monitor for excessive wear within a PTU. If PTU failure is confirmed by software, FCA US will replace the PTU for all impacted customers experiencing messaging related to the defect to replace the PTU. Warranty extension terms and unlimited years/unlimited mileage. Why can we not check the vehicle out at a Canadian Dealer to confirm what we are potentially driving down our busy highways?

While idling, especially at red lights or in park, my 2019 Jeep Cherokee vibrates noticeably. This happens almost daily, and the vibrations are felt throughout the cabin, particularly through the steering wheel and seat, and has caused my phone to fall off its mount while driving. The issue has been consistent and now appears to interfere with the Auto Start-Stop feature. On several occasions, the vehicle has struggled to restart after the engine auto-shuts off at a traffic light, raising concerns about reliability and safety. I brought the vehicle to a Jeep dealer, and I was told that because this is not a recall issue, there is nothing they can do. No warning lights or diagnostic codes were found. However, the problem persists and affects the vehicle’s comfort and function. It also poses a potential safety risk due to distraction and instability at idle. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance. The component is available for inspection upon request.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated while reversing out of a parking space at approximately 5 MPH, the vehicle lost power steering functionality. The contact used an excessive amount of effort to maneuver the steering wheel. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic who failed to diagnose and remove the steering gear rack and pinion. The mechanic determined there was a short circuit in the electrical system for the power steering. The contact stated that the short circuit had caused the rack and pinion to burn out and fail. The mechanic then replaced the wire and the rack and pinion again. Approximately 3 days later, while driving approximately 30 MPH the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was returned to the mechanic who then brought the vehicle to the dealer who would be better equipped to repair the vehicle. The dealer diagnosed that the Exhaust Particulate Filter (EPF) connecter from the steering wheel to the battery had failed. The connector's wiring harness was replaced. The contact searched online and found related recalls under NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 18V524000 (Electrical System) and 19V637000 (Steering). The manufacturer was informed of the failure and confirmed that the VIN was not included in the recalls. The failure mileage was 87,846.

Stalls and loss of control of vehicle

I bought a 2019 Jeep Cherokee Limited used on July 30, 2024. Through the rest of the year I experienced a short sharp sudden pull from the steering wheel to the right and left. This happens frequently, several times in every drive. I had tires replaces and suspension balanced on March 5, 2025. This did not change the issue. When driving, the vehicle pulls left or right randomly especially at higher speeds. It is scary to be on highway and suddenly be pulled toward another lane. I have no open recalls and my mechanic can not locate the problem. I am very concerned. It is not safe so I do not travel far because of unsolved situation. Please provide a means to solve this 2019 Jeep Cherokee Limited V6 issue

We have had numerous incidents with our vehicle starting at about 20,000 miles and still happening at 39,000 miles. While driving all of the lights come on, on the dashboard while at the same time the car loses power - losing brakes and power steering. Most recently, the car locked itself after closing the door, the radio has completely turned off to a black screen, eventually restarts itself. While stopped at a red light, it felt like I got rear ended, a bang sound and the car jerked forward. We have only had Jeep dealerships work on the car. The PCM has been replaced, as well as the alternator. They did find a small wire that was rubbing and repaired that as well, However, the problem still persists. This is a major safety issue, I feel this car should not be on the road, we are lucky that no one has been hurt at this point. The last time this happened my husband was making a left turn at an intersection and was very close to being in a serious accident. It is currently in the dealership (for the 5th time).

I was involved in a single vehicle accident at 5 am on October 5, 2023 on a rural road in Deland, Florida. I was on an unfamiliar road with a sharp curve and as I was trying to slow down the I was unable to slow down or steer the vehicle. It slammed into a cluster of trees and immediately the engine caught fire. I crawled out of the vehicle in pain from the force of the crash and was disoriented. A good Samaritan came to my aide and called the Volusia County Sherriff. I can remember my 2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude was fully engulfed in very intense flames in less than 8 minutes. It was so intense it set fire to the wooded area. This wasn't the first problem I had with this vehicle. I purchased this vehicle new from a dealer in Bowie, MD in 2019. Since that time I replaced all 4 tires due to numerous flat tires starting around 20K miles. I replaced the battery at less than 25K miles. I had braking issues when going downhill in the Washington DC area which caused me to brake hard. I complained and the dealer said they did an inspection. I also had other auto service companies perform checks. I have most of the service records which have cost me so much. I am a disable Gulf War Veteran on a fixed income. I am now waiting for VIN verification by GEICO because the vehicle burned so hot that the engine block and everything metal (melted). Had I not gotten out so soon I would have burned to death.

Electronic steering warning light came on. While driving the steering wheel tightens then loosens. It has not been right since the recall was on it and it was taken and repaired.

The vehicle shakes and pulls Riverside auto marinette Wisconsin said 2600.00 to fix the rack and pinion

Steering is jerking from left to right and hard to keep straight. Feels like you're fighting the wheel. Steering wheel tightens and can be hard to keep on the proper side of the road which is dangerous. Reported to dealer shortly after I purchased car. No action was taken by dealer.

power steering went out while driving down the interstate at 70 MPH. The dealership said that the rack and pinnon had to be replaced. The Jeep has less than 60,000 miles on it. This is unacceptable for a product of this expense and quality.

I was driving down the road, got onto the highway, and I suddenly lost my power steering. I noticed the red warning light come on right when it happened. Up to this point I never had any problems with the power steering or any warning messages. It was raining pretty hard, and I could not safely pull over for a couple miles. I finally found a space to pull off to. Turned my vehicle off, let it sit for a little bit and then turned it back on. The warning was gone and everything felt ok. So I got back onto the highway and 3 minutes later it all happened again. I was able to make it to my destination and hoped that if I let it sit a little longer maybe it'll fix itself. After about an hour I went to go start my car and the warning was still on and this time a warning message appeared stating my power steering needed servicing. I turned my car off and then back on and the message was gone and everything was working again. I left my destination to go back home about a mile down the road I lost my power steering again, this time both the light and the message appeared. I made it home and the issue continues to persist. I only have 45k miles on it. This just happened today so I have not been able to get it into a shop. The fact that this happened on the highway was very scary. I had a very hard time just trying to get it back into my driveway.

While attempting to accelerate from a stop on a slight incline the battery light came on and I was unable to move forward I was in drive pushing the accelerator but rolling backwards and the power steering stopped working. I put the Jeep in park turned it off and restarted but the same thing happened. After the third or fourth try the Jeep resumed normal operation.

Vehicle stalled when slowing to a stop prior to coming to a complete stop, power steering went out and loss of vehicle control almost causing wreck 7/15/22.

Was driving on the interstate and power steering went out suddenly and vehicle became very hard to control and get off the road

2019 JEEP Cherokee Trailhawk started making a "cluncking” noise in the front suspension/steering at 12k miles. Reported the issue to the dealer @15k service (July 2020). Dealer stated there was no issue. Reported the noise again at 22k miles (March 2021)-dealer stated that engine oil leak was getting into an electrical plug for the front power transfer/traction control modules and activating features that caused the noise, which dealer “addressed” by stopping the leak. The “cluncking” noise continued getting louder. At about 28k miles, i drove through a puddle of water and the vehicle lost steering control--it pulled hard to the right and needed strong persistent correction to avoid going off-road. I got a wheel alignment and rotated the tires just-in-case. "Clunk" noise continued and every time car hits a puddle/wet pavement with both tires, it pulls to the right, risking loosing total control if i don’t anticipate the pull. Took it to the dealer again @ 32k miles. Informed dealer that the same “clunck” had gotten louder, the vehicle was loosing steering control every time I hit water on the road. Dealer diagnosed a noisy and defective rack and pinion, even though the previous two complaints for the same noise were ignored. I took the car to another dealer and did not inform them of the diagnosis. This dealer also diagnosed a bad rack and pinion system and tie ends and broken engine mounts. I called JEEP Customer Service, who promised to call me back within 24 hours but never did. The car is now out of warranty for an issue i reported twice under warranty. There is a recall (V99) for defective rack and pinion units on this model but this VIN apparently is not covered, although it clearly has an issue.

I was driving on the highway with cruise engaged at 72 mph. I suddenly lost my power steering. Exited highway immediately to investigate the warning light on the dashboard. Turned the car off for about 3 minutes, but power steering did not reset. Limped the vehicle home where it sits today. Mileage of vehicle is 45050.

The power steering in my vehicle went out while driving down a major road (speed limit 55 mph) with curves in the road. There were no warning lamps or symptoms of concern prior to the power steering going out causing the vehicle to lock up and the inability to turn or steer the vehicle. Then a “service power steering” light turned on. The vehicle is currently at Dodge Jeep Ram of Troy, AL waiting to be fixed. I was notified today, that the vehicle will need the power steering rack replaced.

The Power Transfer Unit is malfunctioning and steering wheel sometimes out of control.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the vehicle was shaking. There was an abnormal noise detected from the front and rear of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the contact was informed that the vehicle was working as designed. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who informed the contact that there was an unknown issue with the tires. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified however, no further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was unknown.

My husband and my son were driving my Jeep on the highway going 70 MPH when with no warning there was absolutely NO power steering and almost went off the road over an embankment. Luckily it was my husband driving because I would not have been able to control the car. When researching this year of Jeep, there is a recall for this issue on only a certain number of vehicles, but of course when I put my VIN in my vehicle is not on the recall list and I also see several complaints of the same issue with the steering and not being on the recall list. This is a HUGE safety issue and NEEDS to be address immediately.

This particular year and model of jeep has 2 recalls not registered to my VIN number related to my accident. Airbags- impact and acceleration sensors. Steering- steering rack gear. Tonight while driving my jeep to my local walmart, my steering completely quit and locked up on me causing me to go off the road, hit a speed limit sign, almost roll my vehicle, and cause possible irreparable damage that may total my vehicle all together. The impact was hard enough to cave in my whole front passenger side fender, rip my mirror completely off, dent both passenger doors deeply, bend my door frames, and almost completely tore off my rear fender. During this, my air bags did not deploy, and I know the accident was bad enough that they should have. This could have been life threatening, and could have ended entirely worse than what it did. My power steering pump seems to be working fine, but my jeep itself is still registering it as a power steering issue, which makes me believe that there are significant electrical issues with the jeep itself.

AROUND 2:30 AM ON DECEMBER 30, 2020 I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE FREEWAY. IT WAS RAINING A LITTLE BIT BUT NOTHING TO WHAT I HAVE DRIVEN IN BEFORE. I SET MY CAR TO CRUISE AT 65 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY STEERING WHEEL STARTED LOCKING UP. I FOUND THAT MY STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN THE WAY I WANTED IT TO AND WAS VEERING LEFT. I HAD TO USE SOME FORCE TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT AND NOT GET INTO OTHER LANES. I THOUGHT I WAS OKAY UNTIL A LIGHT LIT UP ON MY DASHBOARD. I BELIEVE IT WAS THE ENGINE LIGHT BECAUSE AS I HEARD IT GO OFF AND FLASH AT ME, MY CAR STARTED TO STALL UP AND THEN GO REPEATEDLY. AS IF IT WAS HARD FOR IT TO GRASP ON TO MOVING FORWARD. LAST NIGHT WAS THE SCARIEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE AND I HAND NEVER HAD THAT HAPPEN TO ME. ALMOST PULLED OVER BECAUSE I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO CRASH. I KEPT IT AT A STABLE 60 MPH AND OFF CRUISE CONTROL AS SOON AS THE STEERING WENT HAYWIRE AND IT SEEMED TO HAVE HELPED A BIT. I FEEL THE NEED TO GET MY CAR CHECKED BUT I ALSO BELIEVE THAT ALL OTHER 2019'S SHOULD GET RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE.

THE VEHICLE WILL STALL FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE HAPPENED IN THE TURN LANE AT A BUSY INTERSECTION, ON A HILL, IN THE RAIN. THE CAR ONLY RESTARTED AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WILL ALSO LOSE STEERING FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING. THE BATTERY LIGHT WILL COME ON WITH THE ISSUES DESCRIBED ABOVE. ALSO, THE CAR WILL CHIME WHILE DRIVING, WITH NO TROUBLE INDICATION ON THE DASHBOARD.

Mileage: 37,000

THIS HAPPENED MONTHS AGO AND THEY CLEANED SOME CONNECTIONS TO FIX IT BUT ITS HAPPENING AGAIN. AT FULL SPEED THE CAR COMPLETELY LOSES ALL ELECTRONICS INCLUDING POWER STEERING, BRAKING, AND THE DASH GOES BLANK. THEN IT FLASHES A SERVICE TRANSMISSION WARNING WHILE EVERY ALARM AND LIGHT ON THE DASH COMES ON. AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AND PUTTING IT IN PARK IT WILL RESTART AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES OVER 2 DAYS.

Mileage: 58,000

WHEN TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL HAS A NOTCH, OR HARD SPOT IN IT TO GO STRAIGHT. IT EITHER WANTS TO GO RIGHT OR LEFT, AND WHEN YOU TRY TO CORRECT IT, IT'S HARD TO MOVE THE WHEEL THEN WITH MORE PRESSURE YOU CAN GET PAST THAT POINT THEN IT GETS SUPER EASY AND JERKS. WHAT HAPPENS IS WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO GO STRAIGHT, YOU JUST BOUNCE BACK AND FORTH IN THE LANE. IT'S EXTREMELY ANNOYING BUT EVEN MORE DANGEROUS. EVEN WITH BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL YOU JUST BOUNCING FROM RIGHT TO LEFT TO RIGHT TO LEFT THE WHOLE TIME. JEEP ALWAYS SAYS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG AND THAT'S NORMAL, BUT IT'S NOT.

6 TIMES IN THE LAST WEEK, MY CAR HAS SHUT OFF MID DRIVE. AS I AM DRIVING, MY CAR WILL DING, MY BATTERY LIGHT WILL FLASH ON AND THEN MY CAR WILL COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WITHIN 3-5 SECONDS. I WILL HAVE TO TURN MY KEY TO OFF, WAIT A MINUTE AND RESTART. I WILL HAVE TO PUMP THE GAS PEDAL AND MY CAR WILL SPUTTER BEFORE IT TURNS OVER AND STARTS BACK UP. UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES, I DO NOT HAVE ANY ENGINE LIGHTS DISPLAYED ON MY SCREEN FOR ATTENTION AND EVERYTHING RUNS SMOOTHLY. I HAVE ALSO CHECKED MY BATTERY ON THE SCREEN DISPLAY AS I DRIVE AND IT IS ALWAYS BETWEEN 14.2-14.4V. DURING THESE SHUTS, MY CAR IS GOING UNDER 30 MILES PER HOUR, BUT HAS HAPPENED AS I AM TURNING AND GOING STRAIGHT. MOST RECENTLY (THIS MORNING), I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT (HAD JUST PULLED OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT AT MY APARTMENT) AND MY BATTERY LIGHT TURNED ON AND MY CAR LOCKED. THE STEERING WHEEL AND PEDALS WERE UNUSABLE, BUT MY ENGINE REMAINED ON. I CHECKED MY BATTERY DURING THIS AND IT SAYS IT WAS AT 12.2V. I HAD TO SHUT MY CAR OFF, PUMP THE GAS TO TURN THE ENGINE OVER AND MY BATTERY DISPLAYED AS BACK AT 14.4V. THIS HAPPENED 3 MORE TIMES BEFORE I WAS OUT OF MY APARTMENT COMPLEX (EVERY 50 FEET OR SO) AND I TURNED AROUND AND PARKED AGAIN. I HAD MY CAR HOOKED UP TO DIAGNOSTICS MACHINE AFTER IT BEGAN THE FIRST SHUT DOWNS, BUT IT RETURNED WITH NO ERROR CODES AND MY BATTERY TESTED FINE AND ALL THE WIRES WERE SECURE. I CALLED MY JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED I AM OUTSIDE MY WARRANTY (BY 800 MILES), SO I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FIX. THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECT WITH MY CAR. I CAN SEE THROUGH ONLINE RESEARCH THAT MANY OTHER JEEP CHEROKEE OWNERS ARE HAVING THESE EXACT ISSUES AND JEEP IS GIVING THEM THE RUNAROUND. I ALSO SEE THERE ARE SOME RECALLS FOR JEEP PERTINENT TO THIS CONCERN, HOWEVER MY PARTICULAR CAR IS NOT INCLUDED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS MY SON WAS IN MY CAR FOR ALL OCCURRENCES + I HAVE A 30 MIN COMMUTE.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED OUT OR DIED. EITHER WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS OR TURNING LEFT/RIGHT THE SAME THING HAPPENS. WITHOUT NOTICE, LIGHT INDICATORS FOR BATTERY, AUTOMATIC START, AND NOW ENGINE POPS ON WHILE THE STEERING LOCKS UP AS THE JEEP STALLS. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE ONLY FOR THEM TO SAY THERE AREN'T ANY ACTIVE RECALLS FOR MY JEEP AND THAT THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IS THE CAUSE FOR THE VEHICLE TO STALL WHILE DRIVING. I SERVICE MY VEHICLE REGULARLY AND KEEP UP WITH THE MAINTENANCE. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN AUGUST OF 2018 ON ONLY HAVE 34,588 MILES. THIS MAKES NO SENSE AND I FEAR THAT MY AND THE PASSENGERS IN MY JEEP LIVES ARE AT RISK FROM THE MALFUNCTIONS OF THIS JEEP ENGINE SYSTEM. THE MANUFACTURE HAS BEEN NO HELP FOR THE NUMEROUS CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I JUST WISH THEY COULD ACTUALLY FIX IT SO I CAN HAVE SOME PIECE OF MIND!

ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 2020 AT APPROXIMATELY 1130 HOURS, MY RECENTLY PURCHASED 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE PLUS 4X4 WITH 30,000 MILES LOCKED UP AT A SPEED APPROXIMATELY 30 PLUS MPH, WHILE ENTERING AN INTERSTATE ON RAMP. A TRACTOR TRAILER TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MILES AN HOUR NARROWLY AVOIDED ME IN A NEAR HEAD ON / T-BONE ACCIDENT. MY VEHICLES ENGINE REVVED PRIOR TO MY TRANSMISSION MAKING TREMENDOUS NOISE AND SUDDENLY MY VEHICLE FELT AS IF I HAD JUST HIT A SOLID CONCRETE WALL. MY VEHICLE LOST ALL STEERING AND I HAD ZERO CONTROL OVER WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING. MY DASH LIT UP WITH EVERY LIGHT AND MY PARKING BRAKE WAS ALSO ENGAGED. IF THIS HAD HAPPENED A SECOND LATER, I WOULDN'T BE ALIVE! IF THIS HAD HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT DAMAGE THIS VEHICLE WOULD HAVE CAUSE PHYSICALLY TO ME OR ANY PASSENGER. LET ALONE WHO THIS VEHICLE WOULD HAVE HURT. ALL THESE ENGINES AND TRANSMISSIONS SHOULD BE RECALLED, THEY WILL KILL SOMEONE. THE TRANSMISSION WILL DAMAGE THE ENGINE AND VICE VERSA, SO RECALLING ONE AFTER IT DAMAGED THE OTHER, IS LIKE PUTTING A BAND AID ON A TURD! NORTHBOUND INTERSTATE 77 ON RAMP AT THE POCATALICO ENTRANCE (I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS AND THIS IS MY FIRST VEHICLE PURCHASE). AGAIN, I WOULD ASK THE NHTSA TO RECALL ALL THE ENGINES AND TRANSMISSIONS FOR THIS VEHICLE, THESE ARE LEMON'S WHICH WILL KILL, IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY. I HAVE SEEN THE JEEP LAWSUIT FOR THE 2014, 2015'S. PLEASE STOP THEM FROM SELLING THESE POWERTRAINS FOR THE 2019'S! OR AT LEAST MAKE JEEP RECALL THEM. THIS IS FRAUD. IF IT'S NOT, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS. SO I'M STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT CAN KILL ME, YOU GUYS ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN STOP THIS. THANKS 🙏

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE AND VIBRATED WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE RACK AND PINION AND STEERING SHAFT ALSO MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE WHILE DRIVING. THE POWER TRAIN-AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, ENGINE, SERVICE BRAKES AND HYDRAULIC, ELECTRONIC SYSTEM WIRING CABLE UNDER HOOD, SEAT, AIR BAGS WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED.

I WAS DRIVING VERY SLOWLY, TURNING THE CORNER OF MY STREET WHEN POWER STEERING FAILED, LIGHT SAYING POWER STEERING NEEDS SERVICING CAME ON. I COULDN'T CONTROL THE STEERING, HIT THE CURB, IT TOOK OUT A CHUNK OF THE TIRE AND BENT THE RIM. I BACKED UP AND WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY, DROVE CAR DOWN STREET TRYING TO GET IT IN DRIVEWAY. COULDN'T STEER, PARKED IT IN FRONT OF MY NEIGHBORS HOUSE.

2019 JEEP CHEROKEE COMPLETELY STALLED WHILE DECELERATING ON THE INTERSTATE. LOST ALL POWER, STEERING, AND BRAKES. WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN PARK. CALLED 3 DIFFERENT JEEP DEALERS WHO TOLD ME THEY CAN'T DIAGNOSE IT UNLESS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS IN AND THAT I SHOULD CALL BACK IF IT DOES IT AGAIN. THE 4 CYLINDER MODEL HAS A RECALL FOR A SOFTWARE GLITCH FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, BUT MINE IS A V6. I HOPE I LIVE THROUGH REPLICATING THE EXPERIENCE SO I CAN CALL THE DEALER TO BE TOLD THEY CAN'T/WON'T FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG.

THE POWER STEERING JUST RANDOMLY WENT OUT ON A NEW PRE CERTIFIED VEHICLE FROM CAR MAX WITH 51K MILES. MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN

ON JUNE 15, 2020, I TURNED LEFT ONTO A CITY STREET AND MY VEHICLE BEGAN MAKING THE WARNING SOUND, THE SAME SOUND WHEN THE SEATBELT ISN'T BUCKLED. A FEW SECONDS LATER WHEN I TURNED RIGHT INTO ANOTHER CITY STREET, THE BATTERY LEVEL WARNING CAME ON, THEN THE ENTIRE DASH LIT UP AND THE VEHICLE QUIT. AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS TO RESTART, THE ENGINE CAME BACK ON. THE NEXT DAY AFTER I MADE A LEFT TURN, THE SAME THING OCCURRED, THE BATTERY LEVEL FLASHED ON THE DASH, THEN THE ENTIRE DASH LIT UP AND THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN. I WASN'T ABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. IT TOOK 5 ATTEMPTS BEFORE THE ENGINE WOULD RESTART. ON THE JUNE 18TH SOON AFTER I PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY ONTO A CITY STREET, THE SAME EVENT OCCURRED, THE DASH LIT UP AND THE ENGINE STOPPED, HOWEVER THIS TIME I WASN'T MAKING A TURN, BUT I HAD SLOWED DOWN BECAUSE ANOTHER VEHICLE COMING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION HAD VEERED CLOSE TO MY SIDE OF THE ROAD.IT TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE ENGINE, AND IT SOON CUT OFF AGAIN BEFORE I GOT IT BACK IN THE DRIVEWAY. WHEN THIS OCCURRED, THERE IS NO WAY TO GUIDE THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE. I WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT I WASN'T HIT. NOW I AM TOO SCARED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE. *TR

JEEP HAS BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. FIRST TIME THEY COULDN'T DIAGNOSE IT, AFTER SUBMITTING A PROBLEM ON HERE DEALER FINALLY TOOK THE TIME TO LOOK INTO IT. AFTER TAKING IT BACK AGAIN THEY ENDED UP KEEPING THE CAR FOR 1 WEEK AND THEY REPLACED THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM. 2,000 MILES LATER ANOTHER STEERING PROBLEM IS OCCURRING. STEERING IS VERY SQUIRRELLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS JUST LIKE BEFORE. CAR CONSTANTLY IS PULLING TO EITHER SIDE. DEALER DIAGNOSED IT SAYING IT'S THE CASTOR FROM THE ALIGNMENT BUT THE DEALER CANNOT FIX IT AND NOW HAS LEFT ME SITTING IN THE WATER AGAIN. *TR

THE STEERING WHEEL JERKS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AS IT COULD CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL. IT HAPPENS CONTINUOUSLY WHEN TRAVELING ABOVE 55MPH, GOING STRAIGHT, AND TURNING. I HAVE HAD A DEALERSHIP LOOK AT THIS AND THEY CLAIM THERE IS NO ISSUE AND THAT IT IS THE ELECTRONIC STEERING CONTROL KICKING IN. THEY ALSO HAD OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM MULTIPLE 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE OWNERS AND THEY SPOKE TO CHRYSLER ABOUT IT AND WERE TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO.

Mileage: 12,000

WHEN TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS ABOVE 35 MPH, THE STEERING FEELS LIKE IT IS ABNORMALLY DIFFICULT TO KEEP CENTERED IN THE LANE. THEN THE VEHICLE STARTS TO DRIFT EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT AND WHEN I TRY TO CORRECT IT BACK TO CENTER LANE IT HAS SOME RESISTANCE AND THEN IT JERKS CAUSING IT TO OVER CORRECT. THIS GIVE THE FEELING OF CONTROL LOSS FOR A MOMENT, AND AFTER ITS BACK TO CENTER IT GOES THE OTHER WAY DOING THE SAME THING. WHEN IT IS DOING IT, OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROAD NOTICE IT TOO AND WON'T PASS ON THE LEFT IN FEAR OF THE VEHICLE SWERVING TO HIT THEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 70 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS SLIGHTLY TURNED AND FAILED TO RESPOND. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT IN INCLEMENT WEATHER OVER CORRECTING THE VEHICLE COULD LEAD TO A CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO REED CHRYSLER LOCATED AT 1724 N SPRING ST, BEAVER DAM, WI 53916, (920) 887-2300, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN BY A TECHNICIAN WHO WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALLS OR A FIX FOR THE FAILURE.

DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, REALLY ANYTHING ABOUT 50MPH UP TO ABOUT 80MPH, I FEEL THE WHEEL STICK WHEN I TRY TO CORRECT THE WHEEL TO STAY GOING STRAIGHT. EVEN WHEN GOING AROUND CURVES ON THE HIGHWAYS I CAN FEEL THE STICK AND IT'S FRIGHTENING SOMETIMES. TRYING TO EXPLAIN IT AT THE DEALERSHIP TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND HE HARD AND HAVING THEM FEEL IT MIGHT BE HARDER WITHOUT HIGHWAY AROUND HERE TO GET IT UP TO THOSE SPEEDS FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. THIS HAS HAPPENED BY THE WAY MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE LAST 10000 MILES.

PREVIOUSLY, I REPORTED ISSUES WITH OIL CONSUMPTION, WHICH EVENTUALLY REQUIRED AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT. I NOW HAVE AN ISSUE WITH STEERING WHEEL, FEELS LIKE IT IS TRYING TO CORRECT ITSELF WHEN DRIVING REGULAR STREETS AND HIGHWAY WITH NO ISSUES OF ALIGNMENT, TIRES, ETC. APPT WITH NAPLETON'S ARLINGTON HEIGHTS ON 1/23/2020 DID NOT MENTION ANYTHING THAT WAS DONE TO LOOK FOR ISSUE, OTHER THAN RECALL SOFTWARE UPDATE OF 18VA9182, WHICH THEY SAID WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. IN ADDITION, I JUST RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM FCA, STATING THAT WHEN I HAD TAKEN MY VEHICLE IN FOR RECALL #18V739, THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PROPERLY INSPECTED AND THE RECALL WAS CLOSED. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP THIS WAS DONE COMPLETED AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD DO THE UPDATE, HOWEVER, THEY HAD NOT COMPLETED THE CORRECT ONE, AND THE PROBLEM WITH STEERING STILL PERSISTS. I AM WORRIED THIS ISSUE IS A SAFETY CONCERN, AND WOULD LIKE TO BE CONTACTED TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM ADDRESSED.

Mileage: 32,000

I BOUGHT THIS JEEP WITH 8 MILES ON IT. AT ABOUT 5,500 MILES WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT THE STEERING SEEMS TO ALMOST HAVE A DEAD SPOT WHERE IT FEELS LIKE THERE IS LOSS OF CONTROL TO THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENS REPEATEDLY CAUSING POSSIBLE OVER CORRECT TRYING TO DETERMINE IF YOU HAVE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE OR NOT. DEALER HAS BEEN CALLED AND AWAITING TO HEAR BACK. MY FIRST EVER JEEP PURCHASE.

Mileage: 5,500

EVER SINCE I PURCHASE THE VEHICLE IT WILL PULL TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT. WHEN TRYING TO CORRECT THE POSITION OF THE STEERING WHEEL I FEEL RESISTANCE UNTIL IT GIVES AND JERKS IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IS GETTING STUCK AND THEN COMES LOOSE. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND IS VERY NOTICEABLE WHEN GOING AROUND 35-55MPH. WHEN AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED IT IS AS THOUGH THE MOMENTUM OF THE VEHICLE IS HELPING IT STAY STRAIGHT BUT IT WILL STILL DO IT.

WHEN DRIVING MOSTLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS BUT SOMETIMES AT LOWER SPEEDS THE STEERING GETS TIGHT WHEN MAKING A SLIGHT ADJUSTMENT TO THE STEERING, WHICH MAKES ME PULL IT HARDER TO GET IT LOOSE AND THEN HAVE TO OVER COMPENSATE TO GET THE VEHICLE BACK IN A STRAIGHT LINE. THIS IS EXTREMLEY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT HAS CAUSED ME TO RUN OFF THE HIGHWAY AND COME VERY CLOSE TO HITTING OTHER VEHICLES. I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP AT THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES AND CHRYSLER LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THIS IS NORMAL WITH THE ELECTRONIC SPEED SENSITIVE STEERING. THIS SHOULD NOT BE NORMAL BECAUSE IT IS PUTTING MY LIFE IN DANGER. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AUGUST 2018.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL HAD TO BE TURNED APPROXIMATELY 1/4 OF AN INCH IN EITHER DIRECTION BEFORE THE WHEELS WOULD RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER COLBY DODGE (1000 TAYLOR AVE COLBY KS) WHO PERFORMED A STEERING MODULE UPDATE HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 22,000.

Mileage: 22,000

WHILE THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE IS RUNNING, REGARDLESS OF THE GEAR SELECTION, THERE IS A SLIGHT JERKING OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS JERKING OCCURS AT RANDOM WITH NO OTHER NOTICEABLE ISSUES. THIS ISSUE IS NOT "THROWING" A CODE AND DEALERSHIP IS CLAIMING THERE IS NO ISSUE FOUND. ODOMETER IS AT 10340 MILES. THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE AS IT COULD CAUSE MY VEHICLE TO COLLIDE WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE OR OBJECT IF NOT RESOLVED. ISSUE OCCURS WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION AND OCCURS APPROXIMATELY EVERY MINUTE OR SO. IT OCCURS ON CITY STREETS AS WELL AS HIGHWAY. IT OCCURS WHILE DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE OR DURING A TURN. THERE IS NO SPECIFIC DRIVING CONDITION THAT RESOLVES THE PROBLEM OR WORSENS THE PROBLEM.

Mileage: 9,000

WHEN DRIVING AT EXPRESSWAY / HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 60 PLUS FOR A NON STOP 30-50 MILES, THERE IS ALMOST LIKE A "DEAD SPOT" IN THE STEERING. WHEN I MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL ABOUT 1/4" TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT IT FEELS LIKE IT IS CATCHING ON SOMETHING WHEN MAKING SMALL WHEEL ADJUSTMENTS WITHIN YOUR OWN LANE, IT ALMOST FEELS AS IF YOUR TIRES BREAK LOOSE, BUT ON DRY PAVEMENT. WHEN THE STEERING THEN CATCHES. IT ALSO FEELS LIKE THERE IS GUST OF WIND ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE. IT THEN JERKS BACK AND FORTH. THERE IS ALSO A BURNING SMELL FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THIS STARTED AT 5500 MILES. I HAVE A 2019 JEEP OVERLAND. IT COULD EASILY BECOME DANGEROUS. HAD IT AT ZEIGLER JEEP IN SCHAUMBURG IL ON 11/9/2019 AND THEY RECODED MODULE AND COUND NOT RECREAT THE PROBLE. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY SINCE THEN. WENT BACK ON 12/26/19 AND TOOK THE TECH FOR A 1.5 HOUR TEST DRIVE AND EVERYTHING HAPPENED AS STATED ABOVE. THE TECH FINALLY RE-CREATED THE PROBLEM. MY NEW 2019 JEEP OVERLAND HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP SINCE THEN. THEY ARE SENDING ENGINEERS IN FROM JEEP. ALL I WANT IS A SAFE CAR. PS; THIS IS MY FIRST JEEP PRODUCT.

I PURCHASED A NEW 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE ON 6/29/19 WITH LESS THAN 5 MILES ON ODOMETER. ON 9/7/19 (LESS THAN 1K MILES), I STARTED CAR, DROVE HALFWAY DOWN BLOCK AND THE STEERING COMPLETELY LOCKED. POWER STEERING LIGHT WENT ON AND CAR WAS NOT DRIVABLE. CALLED DEALERSHIP, WHO WAS VERY ACCOMMODATING, AND THEY TOWED THE CAR AND GAVE US A LOANER. AFTER SEVERAL DAYS, THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION SO THEY OPENED A CASE WITH CHRYSLER. AFTER THREE WEEKS, THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN WAS REPLACED, WHICH SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE IN ITSELF SO I DID NOT TAKE THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY OR ON LONG TRIPS. FOR THE FIRST COUPLE OF WEEKS, THE REPAIR SEEMED FINE, BUT THEN THE STEERING COLUMN/WHEELS STARTED MAKING LOUD GRINDING NOISES AND THUMPS WHILE PARKING AND PULLING OUT OF PARKING SPACES. NOW IT IS HAPPENING WHILE I AM DRIVING, LOUDER AND LASTING LONGER. I HAVE HAD TWO SCARY INSTANCES OF STEERING/WHEELS GRINDING, THUMPING, LOCKING WHILE CHANGING LANES AND I HAVE NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING FOR 10-20 SEC. IT HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY (12/30/19) WHILE DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT. THE STEERING LOCKED WHILE I MADE A SLIGHT TURN GOING APPROX 5MPH, AND THE GRINDING/THUMPING WAS SO LOUD AND STRONG THAT IT FELT LIKE THE WHOLE FRONT END OF THE CAR WAS GOING TO FALL OFF. THIS LASTED LONGER, AROUND 20SEC, AND THEN THE CAR JUST DROVE COMPLETELY NORMAL. I HAVE ALSO HAD MULTIPLE INSTANCES OF FEELING THAT I HAVE ZERO CONTROL OF THE STEERING AND THAT MY WHEELS ARE NOT ON THE ROAD. NO NOISE, NO LOCKING UP, JUST NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AT ALL. THIS IS MY THIRD 4X4 AND MY SECOND JEEP, SO I AM WELL AWARE OF HOW TO DRIVE THE CAR AND HOW IT SHOULD HANDLE. THIS IS NOT NORMAL AND, QUITE HONESTLY, I FEEL LIKE THIS CAR IS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE. TAKING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW SO THEIR REPAIR DEPT CAN TROUBLESHOOT. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE.

WHEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES THE VEHICLE APPEARS TO GET A "DEAD SPOT" IN THE STEERING. WHEN I MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL ABOUT 1/4" TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT IT FEELS LIKE IT IS CATCHING ON SOMETHING. I DROPPED IT OFF AT THE DEALERSHIP TODAY AND AFTER ABOUT 6 HOURS THEY CALLED AND TOLD ME IT WAS FIXED. THEY SAID THERE WAS JUST AN UPDATE THAT NEEDED DONE ON THE STEERING. I WILL BE PICKING IT UP LATER AND WILL SEE IF IT IS CORRECTED. VEHICLE HAS 28K MILES ON IT.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN A STRAIGHT LINE, I EXPERIENCE A 'DEAD SPOT' OR SLIPPAGE WITH THE POWER STEERING. MOSTLY NOTICED TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL SLIGHTLY TO TO THE RIGHT TO MAKE SMALL ADJUSTMENTS. WHILE MAKING THE STEERING INPUT, NOTHING WILL HAPPEN AT FIRST, THEN AS MORE PRESSURE IS APPLIED, THE STEERING WILL 'JUMP' SLIGHTLY AND CATCH. THE EFFECT IS THAT IT FEELS LIKE YOU'RE DRIVING ON A VERY WINDY DAY WHEN IT'S NOT WINDY AT ALL.

MY CAR IS LEASE ON 09/01/2019 AND REFUSED TO TAKE IT BACK AND GIVE ANOTHER CAR, PLEASE HELP ME AND REPLY TO MY FEARING, I CALLED THE JEEP AND CHRYSLER DEALER AND THEY REFUSED TO TAKE THE DEFECTED CAR BACK AND GIVE ANOTHER SAFETY CAR I HAVE TWO QUESTIONS AND NEED HELP AS I AM SENIOR AND LIVE IN BOSTON AND DRIVING TO NY ON THE HIGHWAY PLEASE HELP ME WHAT SHALL I DO, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHOM I ASK FOR HELP ? -DO YOU THINK THAT AFTER THEY CHANGE THE PART OF THE STEERING GEAR WILL BE SAFE TO DRIVE??? - FOR WHOM SHALL I CALL OR CONTACT TO EXPLAIN MY PROBLEM AND MY FEAR?? YOUR REPLY WILL BE VERY IMPORTANT TO ME...PLEASE HELP AND THANKS IN ADVANCE. A QUESTIONS THAT I AM NOT SAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN. AND I DON'T KNOW IF THE CAR WILL BE SAFE TO DRIVE ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING 65 MPH

AS I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 30MPH MY POWER STEERING LOCKED UP. I WASN'T ABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL AT ALL. A SERVICE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME UPON MY DASH. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THEY REFUSED TO LET ME TOW IT THERE OR FIX IT EVEN THOUGH IT WAS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD AND UNDER WARRANTY. I ENDED UP HAVING IT TOWED THERE ANYWAYS WITHOUT TELLING THEM. IT WAS JUST A CODE THAT HAD TO BE CLEARED BUT THEY MADE ME PAY 120$ FOR LABOR EVEN THOUGH IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND AT NO FAULT TO MY OWN. THIS IS THE ONLY PROBLEM I'VE HAD WITH THIS VEHICLE OTHER THAN THAT I LOVE IT. IF I WERE IN A DIFFERENT SITUATION ALTHOUGH IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS AND I WAS VERY UNHAPPY THE WAY THE DEALERSHIP TREATED ME.

2019 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED 4 X 4, IN SERVICE ON 4/2019, WITH 13,700 MILES AS OF 10/27/19. IN LAST TWO DAYS STEERING WHEEL IS JERKING IN MY HANDS, AS THOUGH THE LANE SENSE FEATURE IS TRYING TO BRING VEHICLE INTO CENTER OF LANE. THAT FEATURE IS DISENGAGED AND IS NEVER USED. THE JERK IS SLIGHT BUT PERCEPTIBLE AND ALWAYS SEEMS TO BE IN A LEFT TO RIGHT MOTION. SINCE I LIVE IN COUNTRY AND TRAVEL ROADS WITH SPEEDS AT 65+, GREAT CONCERN THAT THIS ISSUE MAY LEAD TO A FAILURE OF THE STEERING SYSTEM OR STEERING WHEEL ITSELF. HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE MANY YEARS AGO WITH A FORD VEHICLE, WHICH RESULTED IN A RECALL AFTER THE STEERING WHEEL ON MY VEHICLE ACTUALLY CAME OFF THE COLUMN AND SPILLED BEARINGS ON THE FLOOR.

WHILE DRIVING, MOSTLY DOWN THE HIGHWAY, MY CHEROKEE WILL HAVE SLIPPING/BREAKAWAY INT THE STEERING TENSION. IT HAPPENS WHEN MOVING THE WHEEL IN BOTH DIRECTIONS. I DRIVE AN HOUR FOR WORK, AND IT HAPPENS PROBABLY 30 TIMES MINIMUM DRIVING ONE WAY. THIS HAD HAPPENED PREVIOUSLY AND I HAD IT LOOKED AT AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. IT STOPPED HAPPENING FOR A WHILE AFTER THAT (NOT SURE IF THEY DID SOMETHING), BUT IS AGAIN DOING IT. I HAD IT RECENTLY IN TO A JEEP DEALER FOR SERVICE ON OTHER ISSUES AND LET THEM KNOW ABOUT THIS AND THEY INDICATED THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING RIGHT THEN, AND DIDN'T HAVE MORE TIME TO LOOK INTO IT. I LET THEM KNOW I FEARED FOR MY SAFETY (HOPING I DON'T LOSE CONTROL). I ALSO HAD LET THEM KNOW ABOUT THE RECALL FOR THE STEERING RACK THAT I HAVEN'T SEEN SHOWN UP ON THE NHTSA LIST YET AS A FORMAL RECALL. MY APPOINTMENT IS NOW 3 WEEKS OUT, BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE ITS DOCUMENTED THAT I MADE A COMPLAINT IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS BETWEEN NOW AND THEN. MY JEEP HAS ABOUT 27,000 MILES ON IT NOW.

AFTER DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS OF 60-70 MPH, THE STEERING BEGINS TO PULL TO THE RIGHT CONTINUOUSLY. THEN, WITHOUT WARNING, IT WILL SUDDENLY PULL TO THE LEFT, THEN RIGHT, THEN THE STEERING WHEEL WILL START TO WOBBLE AND SHIMMY AND A SENSE OF LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IS FELT. THE ENTIRE FRONT END STARTS TO SHAKE. ALSO, AT THE TIME THIS IS OCCURRING, THE ODOR OF HOT OIL PERMEATES THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN FOR OVER AN HOUR AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. ONCE, WHILE THIS WAS GOING ON THE DRIVE SHAFT FRONT CV JOINT SEIZED CAUSING THE DRIVE SHAFT TO COME OFF THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT DAMAGING THE PTU OUTPUT SHAFT. THIS VEHICLE, PURCHASED NEW, HAS BEEN IN THE DEALER'S REPAIR SHOP FOUR TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM (IT IS THERE NOW). IN THE PAST THREE MONTHS, IT HAS BEEN IN THAT SHOP 65 DAYS (SO FAR). THEY HAVE REPLACED THE POWER TRANSFER UNIT TWICE, THE FRONT CV JOINT AND STEERING GEAR SHIELD. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE A FREEWAY SPEEDS. THE PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE THE SAME ONE AFFECTING THE 2018 AND 2019 JEEP WRANGLER WHERE THE STEERING ISSUES INCLUDE SHIMMYING, WOBBLING, LOOSENESS, AND LOCKING UP. THE JEEP DEALER WHERE PURCHASED AND REPAIRS ATTEMPTED IS DICK HANNAH JEEP, 3517 NE AUTO MALL DRIVE, VANCOUVER, WA 98668.*DT*JB

WHILE DRIVING THIS MORNING AT 70 MPH MY 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE 2.0 TURBO LOST ALL POWER, POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. I FOUGHT TO PULL IT OFF THE ROAD. RIGHT WHEN IT STALLED OUT THE MESSAGE CENTER STATED "AUTO START/STOP NOT AVAILABLE" AND THE AUTO START/STOP LIGHT ILLUMINATED ALONG WITH THE BATTERY LIGHT. THE 'D' DRIVE INDICATOR ON THE DASH WAS BLINKING. UPON STOPPING AND PLACING THE VEHICLE IN PARK, IT TURNED OVER BUT WOULD NOT START. I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL, AND NOTHING. THE CAR ACTED AS IF IT WERE IN AUTO STOP AS THE DOOR CHIME DINGED WHEN THE DOOR WAS OPEN AND HEADLIGHTS WERE OFF (PUSH BUTTON START). LOCKING THE VEHICLE LEFT THE DASH LIT UP LIKE IT WAS RUNNING. CHRYSLER HAD IT TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHERE IT IS WAITING TO BE LOOKED AT. HAD MY WIFE BEEN DRIVING THIS WHEN IT HAPPENED SHE MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKE ASSIST.

JEEP CHEROKEE EATS ENGINE OIL TOO QUICKLY. ON MY 3RD OIL CHANGE IN LESS THAN 10 MONTHS LESS THAN 2500 MILES DIFFERENCE. CAR DOES NOT LET YOU KNOW WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS NO MORE OIL IT WILL STALL WITH NO WARNING.

MY 2019 IS ABOUT TO HAVE IT'S 3RD OIL CHANGE, APPARENTLY IT'S SUPPOSED TO GO EVERY 3,000 MILES TO GET AN OIL CHANGE. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THE GUY THAT'S IN SERVICES DIDN'T CARE OF MY CONCERN REGARDING THE CHEROKEE TURNING OFF WHILE DRIVING DURING TRAFFIC ESPECIALLY IN THE FREEWAYS, ALL HE KEPT SAYING YUP YUP YUP. HE KEPT TELLING ME HE HAS A PAPER STATING THAT JEEP CHEROKEES NEW MODELS ARE BUILT LIKE THAT NOW. ALL HE OFFERED WAS TO DO AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WHICH I HAVE TO MAKE AN APPT FOR AND GO EVERY 1,000 MILES TO GET IT READ. I MENTIONED THAT THE COMPASS HAS THE SAME TYPE ENGINE, HOWEVER, WITH THE COMPASS I WOULD GO 5,000 MILES OR MORE. I CANNOT CONTINUE TO PAY FOR A CAR THAT PUTS ME AND MY FAMILY AT RISK FOR ACCIDENT. MY CAR TURNS OFF COMPLETELY ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD TURNS ON BEFORE TURNING OFF AND STATES IT'S THE BATTERY WHEN IT'S NOT THE BATTERY. WHY HASNT THIS BEEN RECALLED OR FIX MY CHRYSLER OR FIAT! THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS AROUND CHRISTMAS TIME THEN 3 MONTHS LATER. I HAD TO GET MY FIRST OIL CHANGE BEFORE THE 3 MONTHS OF GETTING IT.

WHILE JUST BEGINNING TO EXIT A FREEWAY, MY STEERING LOCKED UP COMPLETELY. I HAD NO CONTROL BUT RECALL SEEING A RED LIGHT JUST COMING ON THE DASH (OBVIOUSLY, I COULDN'T ASCERTAIN WHAT THEY LIGHT WAS AT THE TIME AS MY CAR WAS DOING MULTIPLE 360 SPINS DOWN THE EXIT RAMP!) TRY AS I MIGHT, I COULD NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST TERRIFYING MOMENTS OF MY LIFE. AFTER COMING TO REST AGAINST A TRAFFIC SIGN, I WAS ABLE TO SEE THAT IT WAS AN ALERT FOR MY STEERING THAT HAD COME ON. IT REMAINED ON EVEN AS I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. I HAVE EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE INJURIES TO MY HEAD, BACK, LEGS, WRIST, HIPS, SHOULDER AND HIP. THIS IS A MOST EGREGIOUS FAILURE AND I AM QUITE UNDERSTANDABLY RETICENT TO TRUST ANY VEHICLE WITH THIS COMPONENT. AFTER 1 WEEK, SILENCE IS THE ONLY SOUND I HAVE HEARD FROM EITHER THE DEALER OR CHRYSLER/JEEP. THIS SILENCE IS MOST DISTURBING. NO HELP FOR A RENTAL OR LOANER, AND AS AN INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING, EVEN MY OWN AUTO INSURANCE IS NOT PROVIDING ANY SUPPORT FOR THE VEHICLE, BUT THANKFULLY HAS STEPPED UP TO HELP WITH THE MEDICAL BILLS.*DT *DT*JB *DT *DT *DT*JB *DT*JB *JB *DT *DT MANUFACTURER OFFERED TO FIX THE STEERING.*JB *TR*JB *DT *TR *DT*DT*JB*JB*DT*JB*DT

ON DECEMBER 29TH AT ABOUT 5PM, I WAS TRAVELING SOUTH AT 40MPH ON PLYMOUTH SORRENTO RD IN ORANGE COUNTY FL.AS I WAS DRIVING, I HEARD A DING (1 DING ALMOST AS IF MY SEAT BELT WANTS BUCKLED, BUT IT WAS) AND AT THAT TIME, MY JEEP SHUT DOWN IN TRAVEL. THE FIRST THING I NOTICED WAS THE RADIO SHUT OFF AND ALL THE GAUGES, AS I WENT TO CORRECT MY STEERING, TO GET BACK IN THE CENTER OF MY LANE, I REALIZED I HAD NO STEERING CAPABILITIES, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED. WHEN I REALIZED WHAT HAD HAPPENED, I BEGAN TO SLOW AND THE CAR CAME BACK ON. THIS ALL TOOK PLACE IN ABOUT 5 SECONDS. WHEN I GOT MY HEAD STRAIGHT AND STARTED BACK HOME, I NOTICED THAT THE RADIO, CONTROL PANEL/GAUGES AND A/C WOULD NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. I COULD NOT CHANGE CHANNEL, TURN AIR OFF, COULDN'T CHANGE VOLUME OR NOTHING. ABOUT TWENTY MINUTES LATER I ARRIVED AT MY HOUSE AND SHUT THE CAR DOWN. THE RADIO CONTINUED TO PLAY. I HAD TO START AND SHUT THE JEEP DOWN THREE TIME IN ORDER FOR THE EQUIPMENT TO SHUT DOWN. I CALLED NAPLETON JEEP OF CLERMONT TO COME TOW THE JEEP IN AND I CALLED CHRYLSER CORP TO NOTIFY THEM OF THE MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD THIS WAS AND PROBLEMS THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED. SEARCHING THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL JEEP ON THE INTERNET, IT APPEARS THIS IS A PRETTY COMMON THING,. I EXPLAINED IT TO ONE OF THE CHRYSLER CORP MANAGERS AND HE SAID IT DIDN'T MATTER HOW MANY VEHICLES THIS HAPPENED TO, THERE IS NO PROBLEM. CHRYSLER HAD THE NAPLETON DEALER DRIVE THE CAR FOR ABOUT 90 MILES OVER A WEEK PERIOD AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. AT THAT TIME I GOT A CALL FROM CHRYSLER AND NAPLETON, STATING I CAN PICK MY JEEP UP, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. THE JEEP HAD ABOUT 2000 MILES ON IT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. WE HAVE HAD THE JEEP ABOUT 40 DAYS WHEN THIS HAPPENED, AND BECAUSE CHRYSLER COULDN'T RECREATE THE ISSUES, THEY HAVE JUST WASHED THEIR HANDS OF THE PROBLEM.

THIS REPORTS DOCUMENTS A SECOND INSTANCE OF POWER FAILURE. ON FRIDAY, JAN 4 FAII WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HWY 287. THE DASHBOARD WENT DARK AT FIRST AND THEN STARTED FLICKERING. CAR THEN STALLED WHILE DRIVING. THE GAS PEDAL NO LONGER WORKED. THE POWER STEERING FAILED. I COASTED TO THE SHOULDER. WHEN IN PARK THE DASHBOARD CAME BACK ON WITH BATTERY, ENGINE LIGHT, AND P WITH CIRCLE AND EXCLAMATION MARK. A MESSAGE CAME ON DISPLAY TO SERVICE TRANSMISSION. I HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP. AT THE DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD THE REPAIR WORK WOULDN'T START UNTIL MONDAY. ON MONDAY AFTERNOON, I WAS TOLD THE BATTERY CONNECTION WAS POOR AND THEY ORDERED A PART. I ALSO RECEIVED A RECALL EMAIL THAT STATES THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I FEEL THIS VEHICLE IS LIFE THREATENING AT THIS POINT. MANY CHEROKEES HAVE RECEIVED 5 RECALLS AND I ONLY HAVE ONE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THE CHEROKEE LIMITED 4 X 4.

STEERING WILL GET VERY TIGHT WHEN GOING ABOVE 60 MPH. IT FEELS AS IF THE POWER STEERING HAS BEEN SHUT OFF. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT IT LOCKS AND IF YOU MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL A LITTLE BIT IT CLICKS. TO GO ALONG WITH THIS I FEEL AS IF I AM ALWAYS DRIVING ON A VERY WINDY DAY WHEN GOING 60 MPH OR HIGHER.

THIS IS THE THIRD TIME WE HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY WIFE'S JEEP. 2019 JEEP CHEROKEE LIMITED. FIRST ISSUE WAS JUST OVER A THOUSAND MILES, SPENT ALMOST A MONTH IN THE GARAGE. GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT HIGH SPEEDS THE CAR SHUTS DOWN AND YOU LOSE ALL POWER STEERING, THE BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD, ETC. YOU LOSE ALL LIGHTS IN THE DASH, ALL POWER GOING UP HILLS, HAVE TO STOP COMPLETELY AND RESTART IN ORDER TO GO ANYWHERE. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS REPORTED TO JEEP MULTIPLE TIMES NOW AND THEY HAVE SAID IS FIXED. WE HAVE REQUESTED THEY SWAP OUT OUR VEHICLE WITH ANOTHER NEW JEEP AND THEY REFUSED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WHERE THE ABILITY TO SAFELY DRIVE THE CAR ABRUPTLY STOPS WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. POWER STEERING COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN AS DOES THE CAR TRANSMISSION MAKING IT SO YOU CAN GO NOWHERE. WE HAVE BEEN ALMOST WIPED OUT BY A SEMI TRUCK ON THE INTERSTATE, THIS IS AFTER THEIR THIRD ATTEMPT AT FIXING THE VEHICLE AND SAYING IT IS FIXED. AND SAFE. WE HAVE REQUESTED TIME AFTER TIME FOR THEM TO GIVE US A NEW JEEP AND THEY REFUSED BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT TO DISH OUT THE MONEY OR WHATEVER THE CASE IS. THIS VEHICLE CAN LOSE POWER STEERING AND THE TRANSMISSION CAN GO INTO NEUTRAL AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD CAUSING YOU TO BE LEFT WITH A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND POTENTIALLY UNABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE. IT IS A MIRACLE THAT MY WIFE WHO WAS 40 WEEKS PREGNANT AT THE TIME WAS ABLE TO PUT ALL HER MUSCLE INTO THE CAR AND STEER IT AWAY FROM GOING OVER A CLIFF THE FIRST TIME WHEN IT DIED. THE SECOND TIME WE WERE ON THE INTERSTATE ON THE WAY TO A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT. THIRD TIME WAS TODAY ON THE INTERSTATE AGAIN.

MY NEW CAR HAS 2,800 MILES DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE AT 5 MONTHS/5,000 MILES. THE ENGINE FAILED ONCE FOR NO KNOWN CAUSE AFTER 2 WEEKS IN THE REPAIR SHOP. NOW MY CAR DIED WHILE IN MOTION ON BUSY ROADS AND A HIGHWAY RAMP AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 15-40 MPH WITHOUT WARNING OR LIGHTS. THIS IS SLA SAFETY HAZARD AS THE STEERING GOES AND CAR JUST COMES TO A STOP WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I HAD IT TOWED AFTER IT'S 5TH TIME IN 4 DAYS STOPPING WHILE IN MOTION AND SHUTTING DOWN. JEEP TOLD ME IT'S EMPTY ON OIL BUT YET THE OIL LIGHT INDICATOR DOESN'T COME ON. THEY SAID IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITHOUT A FIX FOR ALL 2014-2019 JEEP CHEROKEES. THEY ARE AWARE BUT ARE NOT FIXING OR ADDRESSING THE OIL CONSUMPTION WITHOUT LIGHT ISSUE THAT PUTS DRIVERS IN MOTION AT RISK OF AN ACCIDENT OR LOSING THEIR LIFE. IF NO WARNING IS COMING ON THAT YOUR OIL IS EMPTY LONG BEFORE A DIE OIL CHANGE AND MY CAR CAN JUST DIE WHILE IN MOTION ALONG WITH OTHERS AS AGAIN THEY STATED IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE IS A ROAD HAZARD FOR ANYONE IN THESE CARS. MY CAR IS 3 MONTHS OLD AND I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING IT ON ANY ROADS FOR FEAR I WILL BE HIT BY ANOTHER DRIVER AS IT'S JUST LOSING POWER AND SHUTTING DOWN IN THE STREET IN MOTION. JEEP CANNOT FIX THIS BUT KNOWS ABOUT IT.
