My 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee (3.6L engine) suffered a sudden and catastrophic engine failure immediately after the dealership misdiagnosed a coolant leak from the oil cooler assembly. The oil cooler on this engine has a well-documented history of cracks, coolant contamination, and sudden oil loss across multiple Jeep model years. On October 25, I reported a coolant leak to the dealership, including a photo of bright pink coolant. The service advisor incorrectly told me it was “oil mixed with coolant,” did not document urgency, and did not involve a technician. I received no warning that this leak was dangerous or likely to cause engine failure. Within about a week, the oil cooler assembly failed, dumping the engine oil, causing smoke, knocking, and complete engine destruction. There was no prior warning from the dealership despite me reporting this issue directly. The dealership later created service notes that inaccurately stated they “informed me of a leak,” which is untrue. I informed them. Their failure to diagnose and communicate the seriousness of this defect directly resulted in my engine being destroyed. This failure mirrors hundreds of other owner reports regarding oil cooler cracks on the 3.6L Pentastar. This appears to be a pattern of premature oil cooler failure with severe safety consequences and no recall.

My ESC, ABS, and check engine lights have been on for months due to this recall that has no fix.

Nov 5, 2025

I am reporting a serious safety failure related to the ABS/ESC recall on my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Parts have not been available for over a year, and my vehicle has now experienced the dangerous conditions described in the recall. Before the failure, while stopped at a red light in Drive with my foot firmly on the brake, the vehicle suddenly rolled backward on its own. I had to forcefully press the brake to stop it. This should never happen and indicates brake system failure. About 10 minutes later, while driving on the highway, the vehicle experienced a sudden safety system failure. Multiple warning lights came on (ABS, ESC, brake system, check engine), the accelerator pedal became unresponsive, a burning smell came from the vehicle, and I temporarily lost control. I could not pull over immediately due to traffic, which created a very dangerous situation. The vehicle eventually became undriveable and required towing. I am thankful my children were not in the car. This is an extreme safety hazard. Stellantis still has no parts available and has not provided a repair or transportation option. This forces owners to choose between parking their vehicle indefinitely or driving a known unsafe vehicle. I request NHTSA review the lack of parts and enforcement of this recall, as it is putting families at risk.

The car gets started, message pops up saying to safely put the vehicle into park it will shut off soon. It then starts shaking, will not allow you to shift gears, revs up still shaking, it then shuts off and all of the dash panels messages are popping up, ABS, a message to service the air suspension, engine light, car not in park (can't shift it) (we have put tire chucks to hopefully keep it from moving), etc are flashing as well as the interior lights, exterior lights flashing. The only way to get all of the lights to stop flashing is to unhook the brand new auxiliary battery. Mechanic has scanned for codes, more than 60 appear. Once we are able to reattach the battery, we were able to start it, put it into gear before all of the messages and lights started going off again.

The vehicle lost powertrain upon accelaration. Merging onto a freeway and accelerating my vehicle was as if it was in Neutral. Same with starting out at a stop sign, coming to a turn lane and accerlerating to cross traffic, NO POWERTRAIN... just neutral. This issue was also reported by my mechanic when I brought it in as he test drove it. He contacted the local dealership and they inspected as well. Both came to the same conclusion as to what the issue was. The dealership mentioned having repaired over 30 vehicles with the same issue outside of warranty. This issue is very intermittent, which makes it even more dangerous and harder to diagnose until it starts to happen more often as my vehicle put on more miles. No warning lights or messages of failure. I was almost hit broadside at an intersection and nearly rearended on the interstate at 65 mph. My life was seriously in jeopardy as I panic stricken to get power entering the interstate with my vehicle basically in neutral. I had to pull over and shift to park and then to Drive again. According the local dealership and many forums, Jeep is aware of this issue and has had NO RECALL since the majority are out of warranty by the time they are diagnosed. I am beyond frustrated at the sheer danger this has. I am lucky I didn't get hit, someone else may not be. This should have been a recall before the warranty expired. I am now out thousands of dollars on repair and looking for resolution.

Sep 30, 2025

Vehicle reverse camera will stay on while driving. Leak in gasket. Leak in right mount. Radiator issue undiagnosed. Car is available for inspection at anytime as it is currently inoperable and I do not have the thousands of dollars to fix what is wrong with it while it only has 53k miles and licensed repair shop (not dealership as I was told by tech there to get initial issues fixed outside for a lower cost - all repair and service records also available) has advised faulty parts as listed above. Forgive me, I am not a car person so I do not know what exact things, but can provide. Have been on the phone all morning with FCA, manufacturing, and back and forth until this information was received. I have pulled a recall list by VIN and found that some issues with my Jeep are on there; however, apparently my specific VIN is not associated with the recalls listed (can provide report), I am responsible for repairs. Only warning lamp I have received was for a "cylinder 1 misfire" that was diagnosed at Jeep of Fontana in CA, where I was told to take it elsewhere. Now, after having a tuneup last week, I started my Jeep on Sunday and it began smoking. Was told at local shop, Mountain View Tire in Rialto/Fontana, they cannot fix. Please assist!

Car shifts out of gear without pushing the brake. The gear shifter will switch to neutral while driving. While not driving car can shift into reverse without pushing the brake and barely touching the gear shifter. Thai cause the car to stop at high speeds on the highway and unsafely go into gear. This recall has been unresolved for at least a year and is dangerous.

My 2019 Jeep grand Cherokee currently has a blown head gasket. I have the 3.6 engine and I am finding out that this is a common issue for this engine. I have taken my car to the dealer and they have confirmed that it is a blown head gasket. Once you start the vehicle, it has a rough idle and smoke comes out of the tailpipe. Before I took the car to the dealer, I took it to a mechanic shop because the engine light came on and it was having the same issues as listed above, they had said there were misfires. I have regularly maintained my vehicle. This is a huge safety risk. Actions needs to be taken by Jeep to make this right, this is a very common issue that Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles are seeing.

I am writing to express my serious concern and request immediate goodwill assistance regarding my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee High Altitude . This vehicle has suffered a head gasket failure at just over 100,000 miles and has been diagnosed by the dealership as a cost for myself to fix head gasket and recommended a full engine replacement. I have been a loyal Jeep customer since I was 16 years old. I previously owned a 2008 and a 2010 Grand Cherokee and have always supported the brand. In May 2022, after saving up my hard-earned money, I purchased this 2019 Grand Cherokee High Altitude for over $55,000. The monthly payments are significant, but I chose this vehicle because I believed in the Jeep name and expected quality, performance, and long-term reliability. Unfortunately, this vehicle has been anything but that. In just over two years, it has become a complete money pit. I’ve already had to replace the water pump at 50,000 miles, the radiator at 80,000 miles, and now—at 102,000 miles—the head gasket has blown. These are major repairs that should not be happening on a vehicle that is so well maintained and primarily driven on the highway. I treat this vehicle like my own child, staying on top of all maintenance—fluids, filters, routine checks, and oil changes every 5,000 miles. I’ve also had to pay out of pocket for three separate rental vehicles in the last 18 months due to these recurring issues. This vehicle has not only been unreliable but has also disrupted my ability to work. I drive for a living, commuting between multiple job sites, and I chose this vehicle for its sharp look and supposed quality. Instead, it has caused me immense stress and financial strain. Adding to my frustration is the fact that I had a 7-year/100,000-mile warranty and was not notified that it was about to expire. Had I been properly informed, I would have explored my options before this latest major failure. It's clear that the 3.6L engine has a pattern of issu

While driving at freeway speeds, my vehicle suddenly lost power, creating an immediate and serious safety hazard. I was unable to maintain speed, making it extremely difficult to change lanes safely or keep up with traffic. This put me—and others on the road—at significant risk of an accident. During the incident, the check engine light was flashing continuously. The issue was diagnosed as a failure of the engine rocker, requiring major engine repairs at only 87,000 miles. A critical engine component failing at this mileage is concerning and suggests a potential design or manufacturing defect. I’m filing this complaint to ensure others are not placed in similarly dangerous situations.

Jeep starting making a light ticking sound, like it's low on oil. That wasn't the case. Took in for a tuneup, hoping that would take care of it. It didn't. Took into dealer and the camshaft, rods had been chewed up to a faulty part inside the engine. I didn't have my vehicle for two months due to waiting on warranty company. When reached out to Jeep groups,learned this is s COMMON problem. Concerned my engine could have frozen up while driving. NO warning lights or any other symptom! If my parents hadn't taught me how to listen to vehicles, it could have been very bad turnout. This cost me almost $4k. This should be investigated!!

2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland that has been issued recall 94B (24-V-838) with no remedy currently available. While driving this vehicle, it displayed a message to stop and turn off vehicle as it will be shutting down soon. Without further warning, the vehicle shut down, all power, lights etc, while driving at posted speed of 55 MPH, which resulted in the need for the driver to pursue action to avoid what could have been a serious accident. The active error codes indicate an issue with the HCU/ABS module, which is what was recalled. Jeep has not provided any assistance during the 5 months since this recall was issued. This recall should be upgraded to a mandatory do not drive recall with a loaner vehicle to be provided by Jeep until a remedy is determined.

While ideling at a stop light the vehicle RPMs drop low and the engine shuts off. This has occurred multiple times, 4-5 times over 6 months. When this happens the dash displays "vehicle requires restart" This happens in traffic and has left me as a stalled vehicle and a hazard to others.

Cylinder head gasket(s) has a leak. It limited my ability to speed up and keep up with traffic in a timely manner, requiring me to put on hazards forcing others to navigate around me causing a backlog of traffic and other potential hazards. I have had inspected by two different auto repair shops and both came to the same conclusion, they have also told me that they have seen this issue on the same make and model of my car and other surrounding years of the same make and model quite a bit. check engine light came on, and there was a sensor warning on the dash the day of the problem cropping up. Per the repair shops either this issue has been silently present in my car for some time or the leak in it is very aggressive due to the remaining volume of oil in my engine.

Vehcile affected: 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Overland _ 2 wheel drive Vehicle Mfr Date - October 2018 The vehicle was in Park and engine was off. I got in the driver seat, mashed the brake, pressed the starter button, the starter responded so I immediately took my hand off the button. Even without my hand on the button the starter button would not disengage… it just repeatedly kept spinning and spinning and spinning. Kind of like it was hung or something. I had even tried pressing the start button again to make it stop but that didn’t work… (The button went in and came back out with no problem so the button itself was not stuck) The starter just wouldn’t disengage. I couldn’t figure out what to do. It did this for at least 30 to 45 seconds…. Like, My husband had time to get out of the backseat and WALK all the way around the front car to the driver’s door. Right before he got there I tapped the brake pedal with my foot and it FINALLY disengaged and stopped trying to start the engine. This problem Scared the beejeebies out of me!!! The engine never started up when the starter wouldn’t disengage. I had plenty of gas too - Just under a full tank of gas. Nothing coded. No problem indicator lights came on. Husband said it acted like either the bendix was stuck OR motor was spin over but would not successively crank up … it just kept spinning on its own I was not pressing the starter button anymore. This is the hardest thing to describe! All I know is… that was NOT normal!

I have a few different issues with my car. The transmission has been shifting roughly, there’s a loud clunking sound when I put it in reverse, and I'm experiencing slipping, hesitation on acceleration, and sudden bursts of power. The car has been starting to jerk a lot. The engine has lost power while driving, which forced me to pull over on a busy highway at night with my kids in the vehicle. Fortunately, I was able to roll off the freeway, turn off the car, and after several attempts, I managed to drive home. Also my vehicle sometimes have a difficulty starting. I’ll press the start button and no response. I’ve also been dealing with electrical problems. My screen constantly freezes, goes blank or turns off. At times I can’t connect my smart devices. My AC has broke, repaired and having problems again. I previously took my vehicle to the dealership to address issues with the AC. I mentioned these problems, and I was told they would be checked. However, an employee later said they couldn’t find anything wrong. When I spoke to another employee, he admitted he wasn’t aware of the issues. It’s very frustrating dealing with these significant problems, especially since I can’t trust my vehicle and always feel scared to drive out of town. All of this has been an ongoing issue. I have a few friends same model and year and they received recalls but I didn’t. This is my only vehicle, I paid a lot of money for it and I shouldn’t have to be dealing with this. Please help me.

While driving 65 mph on the highway, the jeep lost all acceleration. I was able to get to the shoulder and the car said to put it in park. I did and then was unable to shift to any other mode. The brake pedal was hard as a rock and would not move. The air then turned hot. When I turned the vehicle off and back on - everything seemed fine but losing power on a major highway was extremely dangerous. No warning lights or messages. No other symptoms prior to this instance. Car is currently at independent service center and they cannot determine what is wrong.

While at the dealer to have a lightbulb changed, I was told that I needed to have my oil adapter changed. My jeep only has 33,750 miles on it and has only been serviced by the jeep dealer. While I was there there were 2 other jeeps in with the same problem. Also, my brother-in-law's brother (who lives in another state) also had to have his oil adapter replaced on his jeep grand cherokee. Does jeep have a defective part installed in the grand cherokees? If not, I find it odd that so many people (that I do not know personally) have had to have the same part replaced on their jeep grand cherokees.

While driving, my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo began smelling like burnt plastic, then a red warning triangle came on in the speedometer saying, ‘stop safely vehicle shut off soon’. At the same time, the engine warning light, battery warning light, and skid warning lights came on. I pulled over and when the car was examined the red plastic housing around the terminal that can be used to jumpstart the battery had melted. The vehicle is being towed to the dealer for a repair.

While in Drive, accelerating from a complete stop the car will lag as if the engine is going to shut off. Additionally, the car will be at a stop and driver will attempt to accelerate and car will not recognize it is in Drive. The car will notify the driver on the dash to shift the car into Park.

After starting and functioning normally for a ~ mile, a warning came up “stop safely - your vehicle will shut off soon”. I was on a road with no shoulder and had to keep going. In less than a minute, (1/2 mile) power steering failed, all other electrical devices, brake lights, dash lights, Speedo failed shortly thereafter. Engine and trans were barely functioning. I just managed to manhandle ( power steering had failed) it into a parking lot when it shut down completely. There is no way my wife (car owner & usual driver) could have steered it to safety. Once into the lot, Couldn’t electronically unlock doors or put it in park or even turn it completely off. It was literally electronically dead. Had to climb over seat to retrieve pets and perishables from the back as the tailgate open function also failed. Towed to Davis Chrysler Jeep in yulee, Florida. No word on root cause. I assume it was catastrophic batteries failure without any warning or prior symptoms.

I was sitting at a drive thru when my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4x4 started to malfunction. A service shifter light came on, then the service engine light, then the service airbag light. all the lights and windshield wipers went on. no matter what i did lights and wipers kept malfunctioning. My car stalled and I wasn’t able to move it. I turned my car off, turned it back on and again. It let me drive a couple feet but the steering wheel was stiff. Again it stopped moving, wouldn’t allow me to go any further and only made the noise as if I was accelerating. All the lights and windshield wipers kept going crazy. I turned my car off and on again. Lights and wipers never stopped. I was able to drive another couple feet but then the 4x4 locked. The shifter switched from drive to parking and it was stuck on parking. The emergency neutral lever and button locked. My Jeep was going no where. The cables that connect to the battery were extremely hot and could have been a fire hazard. The vehicle was also saying service transmission continue on D, Do not shift or turn off Engine but the vehicle automatically set it self to Parking. My entire car locked down. I could only turn it on and off. I had to get it towed to the nearest auto repair shop. their analysis computer was unable to communicate with the vehicle. Luckily I was in a drive thru and not driving on the street or freeway. I could have been a very dangerous/deadly situation elsewhere. No previous accidents, issues with the jeep. It all happened suddenly.

MY VEHICLE (2019 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE) WAS ONLY 1 1/2 YEARS OLD AND WAS INVOLVED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45MPH WHEN I WAS STRUCK BY 4-DOOR CHEVY SILVERADO (DRIVER-TO-DRIVER COLLISION) THAT WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ON GREEN, SO ONLY GOING ABOUT 3-5MPH. THE TRUCK'S STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG DEPLOYED, BUT NONE OF MY JEEP'S DID. MY JEEP'S ENTIRE FRONT AREA WAS CRUSHED, AND DRIVER'S SIDE EXPERIENCED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE AS WELL; RESULTING IN MY JEEP BEING TOTALED. EVERYONE AT THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS SHOCKED THAT MY JEEP'S AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. AS A RESULT, I BUSTED MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL, AND 6 WEEKS LATER, I STILL HAVE A KNOT ON MY FOREHEAD. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A GRAND CHEROKEE AGAIN! I AM COMPLETELY AMAZED THERE ARE ZERO RECALLS!

THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! *TR

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ON A THE 3 LANE ROAD FULL OF TRAFFIC VEHICLE SUDDENLY CLUNKED LOUDLY AND VIOLENTLY SHIFTED FROM HIGH GEAR POSSIBLY FIFTH OR SIXTH INTO FIRST GEAR WITH THE RPMS AT OVER 7000 THIS CAUSED ME AND MY FAMILY TO LUNGE FORWARD AT WHICH TIME I MOMENTARILY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO GAIN CONTROL AND STEER THE CAR TOWARDS THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HAD TO SLAM THE SHIFTER INTO PARK IN ORDER TO STOP. WHILE STOPPED THE VEHICLE REMAINED AT 7000 RPMS UNTIL I PUSHED THE OFF BUTTON OF THE CONSOLE. *TR

I GOT INTO MY VEHICLE AND WHEN I TRIED STARTING IT WOULD NOT TURN ON THE ENGINE. THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD ILLUMINATE WAS THE SPEEDOMETER AREA. THE AUDIO UNIT WOULD TURN ON OFF AND THEN ON AND THEN OFF. I TRIED ABOUT 10 TIMES AND WOULD NOT START THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN IT HAPPENED.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, IT BEGAN BEEPING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. I TRIED TURNING TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON, BUT AS SOON AS I PUT IT INTO DRIVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND THE CAR STARTED BEEPING AGAIN. FROM SPEAKING WITH FELLOW JEEP OWNERS (ALL DIFFERENT MODELS) THIS PROBLEM SEEMS PRETTY COMMON AND UNSAFE. THE CAR ONLY HAS 5700 MILES ON IT. TOTALLY UNEXPECTED WHEN SPENDING SO MUCH MONEY ON A BRAND NEW CAR.
