2021 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Electrical System Problems

Constant problems with starter engaging and not starting vehicle. This form only gave me one option for date; This has happened multiple times. This is a defective part, I went to Dick Scott dealership, tech wrote to check car and did not note defective starter; Wanted me to pay $118 to inspect the jeep. In the warranty jargon, it stated if it was a defective part, it would be replaced. I only have 32000 miles on the vehicle.

Engine died twice on busy freeway and needed to be towed to a shop. Shop verified the fuel pump was working. There is most likely a problem with the fuel pump relay.

On Two seperate occasions, the message telling me to "Shift into P, and then desired gear." appeared while driving. I shifted into P while parked at an intersection both times and the car died. The second time it happened as I was driving away from Rairdon's Jeep in WA. I made it one street after having my ignition system replaced to the tune of $2,600. Was able to turn the car around and get it back to them. They have had my car for almost a month and state there is no error code, so they cannot diagnose.

The vehicle does not start each time you attempt to start it. Randomly, with no specific conditions to replicate, you will start the vehicle and the starter will engage, but the vehicle will not start. The push button start will time out, you attempt to start the vehicle again, and it starts. This, from my research, is a known issue with 2016-2020ish Jeeps, with a fault in the Fuel Pump Relay, with the easiest fix to remote start your vehicle each and ever time you start it. This happens several times per week. I contacted the dealership we purchased the vehicle from, and our local Jeep service department. They were familiar with this issue, acknowledged its a pretty big problem, but because it is not a recall for Jeeps, there is nothing they can do except for me to bring it in and pay for all of the fixes for a known production issue.

First gear knocks hard in to gear,this happ en on uphills,cluster and the speed meter and the in infotainment screen has go pitch black,loss of power under acceleration and collapsing all the system of the car.

The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, the messages "No Seat Belt", "Service Air Bags", "Service Seat Belts" and "Auto Park Disabled" were displayed. The contact stated that the failure had occurred with the driver and the front passenger's side seat occupant wearing their seat belts. Additionally, the brake and the check engine warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) had failed, and the loss of communication with the ORC had caused the electrical failures. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V873000 (Air Bags), but the dealer informed the contact that the VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 101,000.

Mileage: 101,000

I believe it is something with the engine or an electrical component. I was driving and as I was parking my car shut off, was not able to completely park back end of the car is sticking out. I looked up if there were any current recalls using my VIN and nothing appeared. I did my own researching and found that there have been recalls for that model regarding the PTU, Power Steering and Power Loss which is the issue I am experiencing. My car turns off on its own and does not get any type of power. Started having trouble turning on my car over Labor Day weekend was not able to travel due to what I thought was my battery having issues, people were jumping me to be able to start my car. I then had my battery tested at O'Reilly's on 9/3/2025 and when trying to jump start my car they shorted my engine block fuse which I was told after having my car towed to the mechanic and they took a look at it. I replaced my main battery thinking that would solve the issue and it did not and this was before the mechanic looked at it. I then had it towed to a mechanic where they replaced the engine block fuse and I was told that the car was good and running after paying on 9/19/2025. I left the mechanic and came to work where after two hours I tried to start my car and it did not. I called the mechanic and was told it was my auxiliary battery after they came to look at the car and inspect it once again that same day 9/19/2025. I purchased and replaced the auxiliary battery and was able to start and drive the car for 1.6 miles to my brothers apartment from my work before the car turned off on me as I was trying to park. There was an error message on the car at the time when it turned off which read with a caution symbol, "Stop Safely Vehicle Will Shut Off Soon" and then turned off.

Electric start is cranking but engine takes up to 10 seconds or longer to turn over. This happens from cold start and even the stop start when in drive at a stop sign or stop light. It is either an issue with fuel injection/fuel pump or something else as it is not a battery issue just replaced them to be sure or a starter issue.

When starting car, the push to start feature will not turn over and continuously cranks multiple times. The entire fuse box was replaced because the dealer told me that was the issue. The car is a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. Numerous people online said they were forced to replace the fuel pump? Although Faulkner Buick in Trevose told me that there’s nothing wrong with my fuel pump. I can’t keep getting charged for repairs that are not necessary. Could this be a faulty part? that so many people have the same issue? Could you please investigate this as I just bought the car a month ago And it’s been at the dealer three times already. Thank you.

have a delaminating touchscreen which is causing a safety issue.

I went to put the car in park from driving and the car began jumping. The air conditioning fan stopped working inside the cabin. The air conditioning is not working in full speed and is not blowing hot out cool air.

The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked and turned off, the headlights flashed off and on and the horn activated. The contact stated that eventually the vehicle failed to start and was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that Body Control Module (BCM) was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 47,100.

Mileage: 47,100

The auto stop-start feature not functioning, with a message "Stop/Start Unavailable Service Stop Start System Now

The car keeps dying while I’m driving and saying “shift to park” and then slamming on the brakes and dying. The card is 4 years old with 44k miles. I had to sit on the side of the road in 93 degree heat in Florida while pregnant and waiting on a tow truck. How has someone not died because of this? I’ve seen SEVERAL posts of people saying the same thing happened to theirs. It’s SO unsafe.

This Car have a lot issues we the computer in the car, the car I was missing oil in the engine ,the piston. Blows out No light 💡 engine On the car have a lot problems we trans mission No light On,I Have problems we transfer Case No light on, Now still having problems if backups sometimes is No light on,I don’t know if Normal but if have a lot safety concerns in this car.

Vehicle will randomly shut off with "Shift to P" message on dash. No warning lights or errors found very unsafe to drive.

Vehicle shifts from park to drive jumping gears ,making loud noises, Accelerating by its self and jumps aggressively into gear. Transmission is slipping, late engagement when shifting, and shifting rough. sometimes it will low rpm. Rpm is going up and down. Making total transmission failure and transfer case failure. Melting the hot and cold lines. Mechanic found aluminum melted and oil burn. Rpms fluctuate and gets hung up during shifting while driving.

Service shifter message keeps showing every-time I turn on the vehicle. Eventually it just stays on. Took vehicle in for service and when dealer was installing new shifter, it shorted out other components. Jeep still hasn’t found a permanent fix.

Vehicle code: C1562-98 AIR PUMP CONTROL - air suspension compressor is overheating or there's a problem with the control system, leading to issues with adjusting the vehicle's height. With further inspection he found a leak in the air bag fittings. Vehicle Power Control Module has caused vehicle to shutoff while driving on the highway. Air suspension and electrical issues continued after 60 days of attempted repairs.

I was driving down the highway and all of the sudden and with zero warning the engine cut off but the effect it had on the car was very severe engine braking as it automatically downshifted very aggressively which caused me to go from about 80mph to a stop VERY quickly. The dash looked as if I simply had the car switched to on without starting the engine. There were no warning lights lit. Shifting into park and turning the car completely off and back on allowed it to start again with no further symptoms.

On Feb 5, 2025, vehicle was started with remote start (in garage with garage door open). Within a few minutes, the entire cabin was engulfed in flames. No warnings, no prior vehicle issues, no recalls. Fire department was called and got fire out. Cause unknown, but appears to have been related to electrical. No or minimal damage under hood. Insurance now has possession of vehicle. Unsure of inspection but they did gather photos and declare a total loss. This could have happened while I was driving, injuring me, my family and others. This could have burnt my garage and/or house down. Please reach out to me for questions or more info. Thank you.

on mopar recall service done shows it had been serviced and bunch of lies i have never taken my 2021 jeep to get serviced for power steering issue. barely came out 1 week ago and crazy service man at BOGGUS TIPTON JEEP in Brownsville texas named Josh, white male wanted to charge 4500 dollars to repair knowing supposibly there was an issue recall and i declined so wanted to charge me 2500 after i declined. he was more than likely gonna charge chrysler and me both ways to make the dealership double the money for a bull**** fix. my jeep has never been in service for the power steering recall. after readings previous comments i think chrysler is lying that the fixed and issue on many customers of recalls. [please check your vin and put a complaint and call chrysler like i am tomorrow and will get an attorney involved for a false fix and claim

I was sitting inside my home when all of the sudden I heard a loud boom, walked outside and saw my 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee on fire. The fire started in the front and moved to the back of the vehicle. The engine had been off for about 2 hours and vehicle was sitting in the driveway. My son's car seat, stroller and many other belongings were ruined in the fire. A police report was not filed, but a fire report was.

Vehicle quit running while driving was going about 5 miles an hour just shut down tried to restart cranks but will not start no safety issues We had to call a tow truck and have vehicle towed to dealer has about 24,000 miles on it. It sounds like a fuel pump issue. Valley motor city Jeep in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, 330-937-9481 where the vehicle is being repaired called me Friday 9/6/24 and said they ordered a fuel pump I talked to Christy, the service writer she said parts will be in next week. does Chrysler have any recalls on this?

Service power steering, blind spot alert temporarily unavailable, seatbelts not buckled came on and started beeeping, start/stop not ready, and service electronic stability control all turned on at once. I pulled over to the side of the road to try to restart the vehicle and I lost my power steering.

The electronic stability control has malfunctioned and the 4wd svc light has comeon. The vehicle shifts hard when taking off at low speed. When coming to a stop there is a loud pop from transfer case. Also the 4wd low and neutral comes on by themselves. This vehicle definitely has safety issues. I just bought this vehicle and just barely have 1000 miles on it. How is thus safe? The hard shifting started around 6/1/2024 the electronic stability, svc 4wd, going into 4wd low and neutral all started on 6/23/24

Vehicle shuts down puts itself in park and applies the parking brake and states that the hood is not closed when it is and has not been opened. It also disable the auto stop/start . It does this at traffic lights or when ever a vehicle comes to a stop creating a potential rear end collision due to having to manually restart the vehicle, disengage the parking brake and put the vehicle in drive.

I was driving approximately 55 MPH on the highway when my vehicle suddenly lost all acceleration. I received an alert on the dash and a chime - the alert stated "Shift to P to Start" - with no other warnings and no CEL or Check Engine light. Pressing the gas, even to the floor, did nothing. I was forced to brake the car to a stop on the shoulder, shut off the engine, and restart the vehicle. Afterwards, I experienced some slight hesitation which resolved, and then was able to drive the rest of the trip without issues. Having the vehicle lose all power on the highway without warning is a serious safety issue.

Vehicle shuts off (engine) randomly during driving. This is the third occurrence. After waiting a few minutes vehicle is ‘fine.’ Dealership is not able to ‘replicate’ the issue. Serious safety issue. How can I operate my vehicle ethically, when I know it could shut off randomly … particularly on a fast moving highway? Dealership says it sees no error codes or issues. My hunch is an issue with the fuel pump? Perhaps a fuel sensor? PLEASE HELP! I am scared to death of driving my vehicle, and I feel I am not being offered the assistance I need. I don’t want to see anyone get hurt. Thank you. Best, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On [XXX], at approximately 9:30AM, I was driving my daughter’s 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L (VIN: [XXX]) to my home to detail it for her. After turning onto [XXX] from [XXX], Spring Branch, TX, the digital screens in front of the driver and in the center console turned off and went blank. Approximately 3-5 seconds later, the screens turned on, but then they went blank again after about 5 seconds. At this time, the engine felt as though it was stumbling as though it was running out of fuel. I then began to smell what smelled like melting plastic and then I saw dark colored smoke beginning to come out from under the center console on the right side of the vehicle. I slowed down and looked for a safe place to pull the car off of the road. The entire scenario appeared to have lasted 1-2 minutes, but I really don’t know exactly how long it was before I was able to exit the vehicle. In order to see where I was going, I rolled down the front windows and as soon as I did so, I saw flames appearing from underneath the center console on the right side of the vehicle. I was able to stop the vehicle on the right shoulder of the road and then I placed the vehicle in park and I exited the vehicle. I moved away from the vehicle and called 9-1-1. Bulverde – Spring Branch Fire & EMS and Comal County Sheriff’s Department arrived several minutes later and when they arrived, the vehicle was fully engulfed in flames.

While driving on the highway Friday [XXX] in the middle lane the whole vehicle just shut down and locked up. Speed roughly about 20-30 mph in rush-hour traffic. No warning lights at all. Full tank of gas. Zero power to anything. Wheels locked up completely. Shifter nonresponsive to try Neutral. No hazard lights. No brake lights. No way of giving other vehicles a warning. Could not open doors or windows. 911 was called to the scene and I was very thankful not to have been seriously injured or lose my life during this whole situation. I was transferred into the fire truck as to get out of traffic. Fire department had to google where to find locking mechanism for the wheels in order to push it over to the right lane. I have a police case number on hand. Vehicle had to be towed to a body shop. The vehicle was sent into service TWICE before for electrical/battery issues in March & April of 2024.

Seat started moving to the 1st saved memory position while driving. This happened over and over and over until I got home. Now the seat memory for the 1st position has stopped working and number 2 is what the 1st use to be.

I went to turn on my Jeep Grand Cherokee L and received a "service power steering error message". I turned off the car, and when I went to turn it back on the reverse detection warning went off, the odometer consistently blinked and the service engine light came on. I was unable to reverse the car or drive the car forward and required it to be towed. I had two small kids in the car without power steering so significantly at risk. The vehicle is enroute to the local Jeep dealer and there were no warning signs or issues with the car prior.

Radio not turning on at all

I am writing to file a complaint regarding an ongoing issue with the 10.1-inch infotainment screen in my Jeep Grand Cherokee L. The problem specifically pertains to the consistent disconnection of Android Auto, a critical feature for modern vehicle functionality. I believe this issue poses a safety risk and warrants further investigation. 1. Component/System Description: The malfunction involves the 10.1-inch infotainment screen, which controls various vehicle functions, including Android Auto connectivity. 2. Safety Concerns: The persistent disconnection of Android Auto has jeopardized my safety and the safety of others on multiple occasions. This issue interrupts vital functions such as navigation, communication, and hands-free operation, posing a risk of distraction and diminished driver focus. 3. Dealer Response: I have sought assistance from the dealership for this issue. However, their response has been inadequate. The dealership attempted a system reset, which proved ineffective in resolving the problem. The malfunction persists despite their intervention. 4. Confirmation by Dealer/Service Center: The dealer confirmed the issue but failed to rectify it. Their inability to address the problem raises concerns about the effectiveness of the current troubleshooting methods employed by Jeep service centers. 5. Third-Party Inspection: As of now, the vehicle or the malfunctioning component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. 6. Warning Signs: Prior to the complete failure, warning signs were evident. The Android Auto disconnection issue was preceded by intermittent connectivity problems, displaying error messages and disruptions in the infotainment system. These warning signs were reported to the dealership. I am open to providing any additional information or cooperating in any further investigation deemed necessary.

Started noticing hard reverse shift when vehicle was cold. Took to the dealership, tech could not find any issues other than it shifted hard in reverse. Tech found no leaks, performed PCM reflash. Still no problems found. Tech did not check transmission fluid level on vehicle. Must be checked at the dealership. Tech recommended replacing transmission even though could not find any issues. A few days later while driving at highway speed the vehicle suddenly downshifted to 3rd gear nearly causing me to loose control. Vehicle would not shift into fourth gear. Had to limp vehicle home.

Vehicle died suddenly in traffic 2 times. Was able to restart after a short while. Was a serious safety issue as I was at highway speed 1 of the 2 times. Vehicle is now at an independent garage. 40k miles. Not under warranty. Has not been inspected or diagnosed yet. No warning lights or codes showing.

I purchased vechicle 9/11/21. The electronic start stop option is not Fuctioning. I understand you could stall In traffic if you use the option. I prefer to use standard way for safety.

This was 5 -6 times my new car broke down 3 times for fuel pump problem then i have engine light on more than4-5 times . Now its still on they fixed it 2 month ago. I just buy this brand new car in 2021. Not completed 3 years yet and having 56700 kms on it .

On many occasions, warning lights come on for no reason. The dealer has "updated" software, but to no avail.. Collision warning, stop/start error, throttle body error and more. On the last event we were driving uphill, approx 25 mph, nobody in front of us, and the brakes slammed on with multiple errors showing.. the car then lurched forward with active breaking, stop start error, throttle body sensor all showing up and going away. This happened 4 times on the evening of Sep 15th. The errors and random and intermittent.. They replaced a "secondary" battery at one point, and that did nothing. They told us we needed to drive it for over 100 miles, to charge the battery, but it did not fix the stop/start or any other error. Now it is in the Cerritos dodge dealer and we have a formal complaint filed with Chrystler.. The dealer states they can't find any problems.. During most of the events, the errors and warning lights do not stay on longer than a few seconds. I have one picture I was able to take when the warning lights stayed on a little longer.

My heat and air and defrost comes on and off when it is raining my defrost do not work that is a safety hazard if I Can not defrost my window when it rain and snow nothing works in my truck it works when it wants to . This should be a recall this was a brand new when I brought it should not be having these problems already at theses miles , also my locks don’t want to lock my driver door I have to push it lock.

While driving 70mph on highway, all lights on dash illuminated, lane assist malfunctioned, wipers went on, blinkers stopped working, vehicle lost speed quickly. Was able to move it off the road, but stopped running before being completely on shoulder. Vehicle would not turn on again in any capacity and hazard warning lights would not function. Needed to have vehicle towed, awaiting final report on issues. No warning was given before this malfunction occured.

I have under 13,000 miles on my car. When i had barely 11k miles, my whole computer system and power steering system shut down 8 hours from my home while on a road trip with my three children and our dog. It left me in the middle of busy traffic and easily a target for oncoming traffic and was very dangerous. The steering g could barely be turned at all. We had this fixed and it’s happened again. I just returned from a trip. I was on my way to school and got stuck in rush hour traffic with my child in the car. The power steering and computer system locked up again and no air would work in the vehicle and the heat index is 115 today! I cannot trust this car and there are numerous lawsuits and complaints regarding this same issue! We could easily wreck and it would be life altering. The current situation is not showing up in my app so I only have the one incident. I’ve never felt so vulnerable. And Jeep is no help.

Two days in a row - the jeep didn't start in the morning. After I started it with a starter. The first day, the buttons on the steering wheel and the safety system control stopped working. Incorrectly shows the fuel level. The second day when the car started with the help of a starter, the dashboard stopped working (completely went out). The battery was checked - it is 100% working The dashboard didn't work during the day. Everything worked in the evening. The engine speed does not rise above 3000 revolutions per minute. Now it doesn't show the fuel level in the tank correctly. Very often, security systems such as lane control and proximity to another car fail

While driving at highway speed the motor shut down without any warning. I was in the center lane of traffic and had no acceleration, no power steering, nothing the vehicle went dead in highway traffic at highway speeds. I had to coast and get over several lanes and on to the shoulder. Vehicle came to a stop on a narrow shoulder with speeding vehicles and 18 wheelers whizzing by. I had to cal 911 and get police to help so I wouldn't get rear ended. Had to wait on shoulder for an hour to get a tow to safety. The vehicle never restarted, and the transmission was locked in park. The vehicle is now at the jeep dealership to see what happened. I just read on line that Jeep Grand Cherokees have this problem and Jeep is not doing anything to repair. Please advise me on how to proceed with this. I have been driving for 50 years, and today was the scariest day of my life I thought we were going to die in a pile up. Doug savage

On May 4, 2023, immediately upon starting the car, warning lights were illuminated: Blind Spot Alert Unavailable - Service Required; Stop/Start Unavailable Service Stop/Start System; Service Electronic Stability Control; Oil Change Required; Service Power Steering; Check Engine Light. Vehicle had no power steering. It was taken to the dealership several hours later, and at that time no warning lights came on and the car had power steering. Dealership indicated that there was nothing wrong with the vehicle. On July 1, while driving 75 mph on I-95 in New Hampshire, while on a road trip from NY to Maine, multiple warning lights illuminated and vehicle immediately lost power steering. I was barely able to get it to the shoulder. Not one Jeep dealership in the area was available to see the car. A local mechanic was able to hook it up and determined that the car lost connectivity. He agreed to keep the car while we continued on our trip with a rental car we found and contacted our Jeep dealer. Two days later, while waiting for our Jeep dealership to tow it home, we learned that the vehicle was completely dead and won't even accept a charge to the battery. Chrysler Customer Service was called and a case was opened on July 3rd. Upon calling back on July 5th, I learned that they "closed" the case. No one could explain to me why and I asked for it to be reopened. Called back on July 11th and spoke with a different representative who indicated the case was "closed" and there was no indication of my call from July 5th. Reiterated and clarified all information and now await a call from a Specialist. The car is still not in NY and is still at the mechanic in NH waiting to be picked up by Jeep to be inspected and fixed. My safety and that of my family, and those in the cars around me, were put at risk as a result of this incident as I lost the ability to steer the vehicle while traveling at 75 mph.

Not the first time but while I am driving the car steering will lock and I can no longer move it. The latest was when I went to see fireworks with my kids and while on the way there I was going to turn and while turning the steering locked and I couldn’t turn anymore so I had to break before I hit a pole but another car almost crashed into me, honked at me, and flicked me off. On the way home I was driving straight and Had to turn but couldn’t because the steering wheel locked and I almost drove into a canal. This is a safety issue that concerns me and I am scared for my life and my kids life and at this point I’m scared to drive because I don’t know when it will lock. I’ve taken it to jeep many times with no solution.

Battery has died three times within 1.5 years…

I was sitting in school pick up line with the Jeep off. I started it and everything was normal, until I pulled into the road. The power steering went out and the light on dash said lane management not working needs service. The light for the adaptive lane cruise control came on. I was driving and when I was trying to turn I would have to turn the wheel almost 360°! There was no issues or warnings lights prior to this happening. I called dealer and they got me in the next day. They say it needed a update but it's scary if this just happens without warning, especially if you are on the road.

In January all lights loss of the power steering assist, traction control, lane assist, emergency brake, backup assist, airbags, etc. illuminated while driving. Made it home car failed to start next day, had to have it towed. Dealership replaced battery (car only 1 year old). 4 weeks later driving on highway doing 70 with whole family in car same thing occurs. Got off highway and parked. Total loss of power steering at this point and car undeliverable. Had to get it towed again. Dealership now says need to replace both batteries. This seems to be a HUGE safety issue. Multiple complaints online of the same thing occurring.

Car has had erratic electric steering at low speed when making turns. Weird noise from electric steering system. We drove 6 miles to a local park. Walked the trails then got back into this car. Started up. Warnings came up on screen. 1 Service Stability system, 2 service blind spot monitor system, 3 rear collision avoidance unavailable, 4 Blind spot monitoring system became inoperative. 5. Electric steering became extremely difficult to operate. We restarted car 2 times and all the above warnings came on each time. As it was Saturday Evening, we limped car home. Parked in Garage and I started it 2 hours later with all the above warnings. Left overnight and started Sunday afternoon 2/11/23, no warnings. Drove car to selling dealership, parked in line for repairs and it is still there. Dealership has finally gotten in an entire electric steering assembly, as this was the stored codes from 2/10/23, and they are supposed to be installing it tomorrow 2/24/2023. Failure of an electric steering unit on a car that has no physical connection between the steering wheel and the front tires is a chilling event that needs tobe investigated. Thankfully I did not wreck the car, but I parked it because of the malfunction, and on hindsight, I should have had it hauled to the Dealership instead of driving it there.

Steering wheel airbag cover cracked without pressing on the horn or any force. The lift gate will go up halfway and instantly come back down without pressing the button to make it come back down. And, the front passenger tie rod has been replaced twice in 18 months.

On 12/31/2022, I received six notifications from my app regarding “theft alarm triggered”. Go outside horn is honking. Turn off and continued. January 2, 2023 I brought vehicle into jeep as my entire dash was glitching in and out. Couldn’t see my speed limit. Interior lights were turning on and off. Back light on interior tailgate was blinking. They had my car a few days and it was “fixed”. February 3, 2023 vehicle wouldn’t start. Replaced battery. Vehicle dash began glitching, interior lights turning on and off and theft alarm notifications. Brought into jeep they said it was the battery even though we just replaced battery. They replaced battery and called me to pick up the next day. 2/7/2023 same issues began occurring. However, when car was powered off, a buzzing sound was heard and interior lights were turning on and off. 2/8/2023 vehicle would not start. Had to be towed to dealership. Concerned there is an electrical issue that could cause a fire. Unsure if issue was reproduced but I have several videos all time stamped and dated to show delegates what is happening.

While driving 65 mph, the power steering assist, traction control, lane assist, emergency brake, backup assist, air bags, and check engine warning lights all illuminated, and the vehicle failed to operate and function as needed. Had to used excessive force to steer the vehicle off the road and had to repeatedly pump the brake pedal. Additionally, the turn signals and warning lights failed to operate as needed. quickly pulled over and was able to make it to a parking spot. Could have been rear ended. Unable to drive the vehicle towed to a dealer. Second time the same issues occurred. Had to quickly react before getting rear-ended while driving 50 mph. The power steering assist, traction control, lane assist, emergency brake, backup assist, air bags, and check engine warning lights all illuminated, and the vehicle failed to operate and function as needed. Quick response to pull over so we weren't hit. No symptoms prior to all the lights flashing and losing power steering.

The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the vehicle had experienced a computer failure, causing an unknown module to be replaced. Additionally, the contact stated while driving 10-15 MPH and pulling out of the parking lot, the message "Activate The SOS" was displayed. The contact called Jeep Emergency System Department and inquired about assistance with turning off the emergency system and was informed that there was no indication that the SOS system message had been activated. The contact parked, turned off, and restarted the vehicle; however, the instrument panel lights and center display failed to activate even though the engine was still running. The vehicle lost motive power independently turned off and failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the parking sensor module had failed, causing correlated damages to other unknown modules. The dealer replaced the parking sensor module; however, after driving the vehicle, the dealer diagnosed that the PCM and powertrain transfer case needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact to trade the vehicle. The failure mileage was approximately 7,000.

Mileage: 7,000

Bought vehicle in October - dealer was only able to give me the vehicle 2 months later. When I picked up the vehicle it smelled like something electric was burning. I texted my sales guy from the lot he didn't respond immediately I thought maybe it's just something outside the vehicle. Brought it home found it there is a recall on this vehicle and it doesn't accelerate efficiently. When I took it back to the dealership the dealer couldn't fix it and refused to take the vehicle back. I have paid my car payments for a vehicle I can't use. Please help me resolve this issue

The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated while driving 10 MPH and approaching a parking spot, several warning lights illuminated, and the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The vehicle was not drivable.

Power steering becomes unavailable; the car will not drive; all safety features become unavailable. The first time happened in April 2022, vehicle only had 6k miles. I had to remove the power steering fuse and put it back in for the system to reset. The vehicle was taken to dealer for rapid response recall. October 2022, went to start car and the same message came out regarding power steering and safety features being unavailable, car would not start and had to reset the power steering fuse. The system reset, but now the engine light is amber and will not turn off; the vehicle has 16k miles. I will be contacting the service department first thing Monday morning

Vehicle reported on instrument cluster a loss of Electronic Stability Control, Power Steering, blind spot alert, adaptive cruise control, and cruise control. We have been having electronic issues for >2 months. Previously the vehicle reported an estart fault and would randomly engage the ebrake. It would not allow disengaging the ebrake unless the car was restarted and/or hood was opened and shut. This occured while turning left at a light causing the vehicle to abruptly stop in the intersection. We have had the vehicle serviced 2 times, and now will return it for a third time for these electronics issues.

Twice my vehicles charging system has not charged effectively. The first time, the adaptive cruise and forward collision systems became inoperable. During a 500 mile trip at highway speeds the battery voltage did not increase over 12.8v. This caused the air conditioner to stop blowing cold air on a 90 degree day. Two days later the air-conditioning system is still not operable.

Two issues: power steering warning with no fix. Light remains illuminated. Second: ALM (Active Lane Management) will turn off sporadically and not turn back on. Sometimes takes a few stop and restart of the engine for the ability to turn back on.

Vehicle is making a knocking noise when in drive and fully stopped. This occurs after drive the vehicle for about 10 miles, once the engine warms up. I've been told that it was a purge selenoid and it's normal. Was also told it was an EGR Valve and also advised that it was the air suspension. Meanwhile they have a open star case stating it's the motor mounts. 100s of people are having the same issue on the facebook group I'm in, as well as forums and no one is getting anywhere. Also my radio system is making a hissing noise and the android auto connection is not stable and doesn't stay connected. They currently have no fix for this. My steering wheel is slightly off to the right to go straight. They stated the alignment is good and that it does that because incase the driver falls asleep, it would drive them off the road instead of into oncoming traffic. That's sounds extremely bogus and very dangerous.

2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Limited: Looses power steering and the light comes on and a message saying power steering unavailable. Took it to the dealer and they ran the code as the aux battery going below voltage threshold. They’ve changed this battery once already due to the same issue and the battery expanding because of the issue and the tsb (?) 3 times to try and fix this issue. This is about the 6th time I have taken it in. Chrysler lacks at figuring out what is wrong. They’ve gone through every wiring harness everything.

Electrical issues stalled car without warning while driving. Vehicle restarted briefly and stalled again with electrical warnings.

I started my car with my factory installed remote starter and 5 minutes later my car was engulfed in flames. This was a brand new car, and has been reported to Chrysler,. I reported this the day it happened on 5/9/22 and I still have not heard back from Chrysler. Just concerned this could happen to others.

This is my second attempt to get someone to reach out. I have a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L with approximately 3100 miles. This vehicle has been in the repair shop a minimum of 10 times. Power steering goes out at times while driving. This vehicle falls into the Lemon Law. I have been unable to reach anyone at Jeep Headquarters to assist with resolving this buy back.

2/18/2022, I was driving down Bethany and 75 in Allen, Texas when my vehicle made a sputtering noise then the gears went out. Could not engage the gears to Drive or Reverse. I coasted the vehicle to the church parking lot where I sat for 6 hours waiting on a tow truck. When tow arrived, vehicle's brake and parking break had to be pushed down to allow vehicle to go into neutral. Vehicle would turn on, but the ac/heating system did not work, radio was shorting out and vehicle remained locked in Park. Check engine light came on after the sputtering and did not turn off. Vehicle was serviced the previous week at Dodge City McKinney with no reported issues of this caliber. Per dealership, codes are showing issues with the transmission and engine. Vehicle only has 9347 miles and if I had been on a major highway, I could have been severally injured when the vehicle stopped. Dealership, made no attempt to review the issue upon its arrival.

Power steering randomly goes out and random electrical issues and faulty sensors indicators. Vehicle has 8,000 miles I fear for my safety to safely operate this vehicle putting my life in danger and others on the highway.

Last night, my BRAND NEW car (Jeep Grand Cherokee L Limited) tried to kill me. Driving down 1187 going 40 miles an hour, it came to a DEAD STOP, put itself in park and would not crank or start back up. All I could hear in the panic was screeching tires from cars trying not to hit me. The seatbelt also did not stop me and I was thrown into the steering wheel. My car has less than 900 miles on it. After a panic attack of EPIC proportions and a sleepless night, I immediately drove it to the dealership today and of course they can find NOTHING wrong with it. They are going to keep it a few days to double check a few things, but to say I will no longer be able to drive this car without SEVERE anxiety is an understatement. It has less than 1000 miles on it and I haven't even made my first payment. Trading it in, I will automatically lose $3100. If I don't trade it in, I don't think I would ever be able to get over the anxiety of driving it. Talk about a lose/lose situation. All I could think about is if I had been going faster and there had been more traffic, I could have KILLED someone including myself. Thank you to the kind salesman who, when I pulled up this morning, said "I love your car" and I proceeded to break down crying and hand him the keys and say you can keep it. He was so helpful in calming me and getting it checked out right away. I've owned it 21 days exactly. Honestly I am not sure I want to take the chance of it happening again.

Driving on a highway when I got multiole error messages on my dash informing me that my power steering was unavailable, blind spot was unavailable, AEB was unavailable, ACC was unavailable, as well as active lane management was unavailable- and to service these immediately. My dash continued to beep and filter through these error messages for the remainder of my drive. During this, none of these features were working- as well as my power steering not working. This is the second time this has happened. Both times at highway speeds. Appointment has been made at dealership to have it looked at.

Purchased new 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Overland in December 2021. The SUV has 2900 miles on it. Since purchase, the auto park engages at random moments most recently today when pulling out of drive thru lane. I began to drive the jeep forward and it locked up and engaged park brake. This has happened on numerous occasions. I went to get in the Jeep a few days ago. Started the engine and the brake engaged itself before even putting the vehicle in reverse. The touch screen in the dash that controls all functions of the SUV including radio, car play, heat/cooling, vehicle settings will randomly shut off and go black while traveling. While using the paired phone setting when making a call, the speakers produce a swishing/scrubbing sound that will not stop while the call is in session. New today, the windshield washer fluid light is on and the fluid is full. Due to "staffing shortages," can't get the Jeep into the local dealer until March 11th to be examined. Such a joke for a $60K vehicle.

VECHICLE WAS PURCHASED ON 11/6/21 ATT SMITHHAVEN JEEP IN NYS. THE NEXT DAY I NOTICED SUBSTANSIAL CONDENSATION IN BOTH THE HEAD LIGHTS AND REAR BRAKE LIGHTS. I TOOK THE VECHICLE TO THE DEALER RIGHT AWAY AND THEY STATED "ITS NORMAL AND IT WILL GO AWAY", THAT BEING SAID I STILL HAVE THIS ISSUE AND IT HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. ON APPROX 12/13/21 THE VECHICLE'S RADIO FROZE AND I WAS UNABLE TO USE IT FOR SEVERAL DAYS. A MESSAGE PROMPTED ME TO CALL SIRIUS XM RADIO, HOWEVER THEY STATED IT WAS A VECHICLE ISSUE AND NOT A SATELITE RADIO ISSUE. I LOOKED UP ONLINE AND FOUND HOW TO HARD RESET RADIO AND I HAVE TO DO THAT OCCASIONALLY TO CLEAR THE UNRESPONSIVE RADIO. THE MOST RECENT ISSUE WAS A COMPLETE TRASMISSION FAILURE ON 2/1/22. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MOVE VECHICLE THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT GO FORWARD PAST THE 1ST GEAR AND WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE NEARLY CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT. DEALER IS NOT PRIVY TO THIS ISSUE AND DOES NOT HAVE AN ETA FOR REPAIR. JEEP CORPRATE HAS BEEN CONTACTED WITH NO RESOLUTION. THIS WAS A MAJOR MECHANICAL MALFUNCTION AND THE VECHILE IS ONLY 3 MONTHS OLD WITH 2,300 MILES. I AM UNABLE TO UPLOAD PICTURES OR VIDEOS HOWEVER I HAVE THEM TO SUBMIT IF NEEDED.

The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at 25 MPH, the "power steering unavailable, service required," appeared on the instrument panel. As she began to drive to the dealer, the "active lane management unavailable, service required" warning also appeared on the instrument panel. Once at the dealer, she was informed that a software update would be performed on the vehicle. Five days later, the "service four-wheel drive" warning message was illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where the computer module was reset; however, the failure returned, and the vehicle was taken back to the dealer. A service tech informed the contact that he had been instructed to reset the computer module and that he knew that the reset would not correct the failure. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure and the contact was given a case number. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was 2,623.

I purchased this car on 1/12/2022. It immediately began to have issues, first a coolant leak and then a check engine light. I have been told the check engine light is related to RFH codes for passive entry and Chrysler cannot provide a a date for the software update . I am forced to forced to drive a brand new vehicle with a check engine light on, not knowing if it’s safe. I feel this is unacceptable, I see many stories of the same vehicle just shutting down while driving.

The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that after parking the vehicle for more than 24 hours, the vehicle would not start up.

The contact stated that he contacted the dealer and it was suggested that the battery be replaced. The contact stated that the battery was replaced twice however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 11,000.

I took my vehicle in for a recall on Saturday. I left with the auto start stop warning light on. They said the cable was fried and part was on back order, otherwise it was fully drivable. I started it for this first time since Saturday on Monday morning. I began to drive and the AEB immediately slammed on. Every warning light started to flash. Including the hazards. I had to unload my kids through the driver side, as the other doors wouldn’t open from inside or outside. The locks nor the windows would roll down. On the suspension it said to turn the engine on, however the engine was on.

-The new 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L-Limited was made to be a third, row off-road, all weather driven vehicle. #1: The front windshield is flush with the front pillars. This causes accumulated snow or off-road dirt to easily be pushed to the driver side window (with no way to wash off) and blocking the driver’s side mirror. This makes it impossible to to use the blind spot light on the side mirror. In my case, I had audio alarm turned off as not to wake the kids while driving across the country. So I had a couple of near misses until I was able to stop, clean the driver’s window and turn the blind spot alarm back on. This is not a big deal if driving in clear rain, just not off-road or snow. It’s available for inspection whenever needed. -Our safety was placed at risk by creating a blind spot, making my driver’s side mirror and sensor obsolete. This created me nearly striking the cars beside me. -I just returned from the dealership(Puyallup-Larsen Jeep)an hour ago and the staff admitted it was a flaw. They actually recommend I go buy some aftermarket window lip, that does not exist. It was disgraceful to say the least for them to admit a flaw and suggest I fix it on my own, after having my car for 8 hours and it having 3500 miles on it. -No warning lights other than the blind spot sensors activating that I could be sure was activated or not. #2: The third row seat over heated the phone charging cord, causing light cabin smoke and burning a slight hole in the gym bag. My 7 y/o twins were woken up and advised me she think she smelled smoke. I figured it was nothing, it a brand new vehicle. She said “something is burning Dad”. I turned the cabin light on as my 14 y/o said she now smelled something in the second row. I saw a light fog and immediately pulled over, ran to the back and yanked out the cord out of the car. The cord was overheated to my touch. The cord had burned the plastic bag the Happy Meal toy was inside. Available for inspection whenever.

VEHICLE LOCKS ARE NOT WORKING SAFELY. When locking doors on the vehicle the doors are easily opened when you pull the handle while sitting in the vehicle. All doors will open which is very dangerous especially since my grandkids sit in the back and can open the doors while the vehicle is in motion. I have a video showing the doors locked and i am able to open the doors when the vehicle is driving down the road.

Second incident in less than 2 months on Grand Cherokee L that has 2K miles. Vehicle experienced limp mode when stabilizer system malfunctioned when going 45mph. Began to stall and lost acceleration. Gas pedal was unresponsive. Second incident (~500 miles later) Power Steering Failure. Could not get vehicle out of garage. Luckily this malfunction did not occur on the highway. Was able to get it to dealer the next day and they fixed with software updates for only the effected power steering module. What other updates are needed and what happens if the braking system is next? I have lost all faith in Jeep’s ability to design a safe and reliable vehicle for my wife and 2 kids. My wife has anxiety driving her own car as well. The roll out of the L and Grand Wagoneer may be coming with potentially fatal flaws.

Vehicle was left at dealer on 12/3 to address the infotainment screen gltiching and turning off and to address a recall. The dealer performed a software update and addressed the recall. I picked vehicle up on Saturday, 12/4. The infotainment screen flashed off again and I noticed the transmission shutters and bangs during a downshift and when I lift off the gas pedal. It was observed on Sunday, 12/5 that the nightvision images freezes and glitches while using.

The car lost communication with the Body Control Module causing multiple features to malfunction, including power steering, while we were on the road. It's a 2021 vehicle that we leased only 29 days prior to the incident. Yes, with multiple important features malfunctioning at once, we were at risk. Fortunately, we were not on a highway or driving in inclement weather or this would have been even more dangerous. The problem has been confirmed by the dealer. The vehicle was inspected by the dealer after the incident. There were no prior warning signs and the problems came about rapidly.

On 11/11/21 I started vehicle and placed in drive to pull out of driveway. Upon moving the steering wheel became locked and would not allow me to steer. The “Service active dampening system “ warning came on along with “Service power steering”. I was able to put vehicle in reverse and back into driveway but the steering was still not functioning. After vehicle sat off for few minutes I restarted and appeared fine but check engine light came on. I took to dealer the same day. After 3 days they could only determine that the computer had shut down. No other explanation or resolution except that if happens again to have it towed there. What if this were to happen while driving at highway speed?

During the first 3,000 miles of owning the vehicle, on 3 separate occasions, the vehicle has failed to shift from first to second gear, appearing to get stuck in neutral. Because this is occurring when the vehicle is first beginning to accelerate this is happening when entering intersections, changing lanes, and crossing lanes causing the vehicle to rev while either coasting (due to the positive motion prior to shifting) or sit motionless when on-coming traffic is approaching. The only way to get the vehicle back in motion is to completely stop the vehicle (irrespective of the dangerous location) put the vehicle in park, then back in drive, and try accelerating again in hopes that the vehicle will shift on a second attempt. One one of the three occasions so far, this occurred while exiting a parking lot but before entering a changing lane on a busy street. On another occasion it caused me to get stuck on a blind curve. The issue occurs intermittently and to date I have not been able to get the dealer to remedy the issue. Their text msg response at TransitTowne Jeep Chrysler Dodge RAM in Elma, New York, is that "..there is no codes in the system and there is no updates available for the software. There is nothing to diagnose if there is no code and everything checks out in the system. ... The Jeep does have an 8 speed transmission that is all electronically controlled and it can take some getting used to." This is the response I received after dropping the vehicle off at 10 a.m. and receiving a call the same day that my car is ready to be picked up at exactly 1:03 p.m. (which included the time to perform an oil change, tire rotation, resolve a missing trim issue, and investigate an issue with the tailgate). The only warning was the beep that goes off when the car is in close proximity of an impact (due to the other cars approaching as I try to get the back in motion) but the warning is useless until I can get the car back in motion to avoid an impact.

After first rain back floorboards we're soaked and now there is a mildew smell. Car does not drive correctly when excelling, and electronics are working sometimes and not others.

Vehicle was purchased last month. Grand Cherokee L Altitude. Has <1,400 miles. Check engine light came on. Warning for Electronic stabilizer system. Lost acceleration. Vehicle stalled once coming to a stop. And then once I turned it back on and tried to drive, the vehicle would not accelerate over 25mph. Reset then car drove fine. But then incident occurred again. Glitchy software or modules. This should not occur in a BRAND NEW vehicle. Unsafe.

Sometimes when first started and other times while driving, the main touch screen dies and certain functionality is lost though the car is still drivable. Everything controlled by the touch screen stops (radio, cameras, heating/cooling) but blinkers do not work, front wipers turn on and can't be turned off, high beams turn on and off, and cruise control turns on and off. If this happens while driving, a message saying "SOS Call unavailable. Please visit an authorized dealer" pops up. If it happens when the engine is first started, nothing appears on the screen.

As I was driving the suv completely turnoff and would not let me turn it back on for a couple of seconds. Pulled into a parking lot and turned off again. This is very dangerous, and scary.

High Beam headlights don't work when the headlight switch is in AUTO mode. Problem has been confirmed with Bozak Motors in Merrillville and they advised that there is a bulletin out advising them not to attempt repair as engineers are working on issue. Further research on my own reveled that they have 3 other of the same vehicles on lot with same issue. Seems like a safety issue when driving at night down country roads

Two separate incidents, my Grand Cherokee L has less than 100 miles on it. I pulled into a drive thru restaurant and the vehicle completely shut off, still in drive mode. Then 5 minutes later I went to pull into a parking spot, I put the vehicle in park, then it shut off again.

On 7/29/2021, approximately 2pm, driving on Front Hall Rd. leading to our home. Reduced speed to between 15/20 MPH in order to slow down and prepare to turn right into our driveway. Suddenly, the engine shutdown. I had no brakes or power steering. The car came to a stop on its own, since nothing was working. A sign on the computer screen can on stating to put the car in park and restart the car. About an hour later I got the car to service department at I-10 Jeep, Ram dodge in Indio CA.. Today I called to get an update on my car. They said, service was calling Chrysler about the problem. They also said, one of their manager was driving a new grand cherokee L mode like mine and he had same problem with the engine shutting down. They did a computer update on his car, but it continued with engine shut down on test driving it. They advised that a factory rep. would be at the dealership on August 2nd or 3rd to review the problem. This is a serious safety concern when the engine shuts down while moving. Luckily, I wasn't traveling at a higher speed in heavy traffic when the engine shut down occurred. My car has below 400 miles. I purchased the car on July 15, 2021.

Driving Jeep and engine stop, only had steering no brakes fortunately our speed was less than 10 miles per hr and we were in a parking lot. There is only about 770 miles on vehicle and we’ve owned the Jeep 3 weeks. Our concern is what would of happen if we were in heavy traffic, it was rush hour at the time? The dealer is picking up car tomorrow but that doesn’t fix our concerns!

I WAS DRIVING MY NEW GRAND CHEROKEE WITH 121 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. AS I WAS MOVING FORWARD WITH THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE AND WAS ATTEMPTING TO TURN AROUND TO- RE-ENTER A HIGHWAY THE ENGINE STOPPED. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE NUMEROUS TIMES WITH NO LUCK. THE VEHICLE WAS STUCK IN PARK WITH THE WHEELS TURNED TO THE LEFT. THE REST OF THE ELECTRONICS WORKED BUT THE THE VEHICLE LOCKED IN PARK IT COULD NOT BE MOVED. THIS REPRESENTS AN EXTREME HAZARD TO THE MOTORING PUBLIC AS IF I HAD GONE 10 FEET FURTHER AND THE ENGINE STALLED I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE ENGINEERING BY JEEP. TWO TOWING COMPANIES ATTEMPTED TO UNLOCK THIS VEHICLE FROM PARK WITH NO SUCCESS. VERY HAZARDOUS AND DISAPPOINTING WORK BY CHRYSLER.

Mileage: 121
