Since the very beginning driving 2014 Jeep the transmission slips. Taking it back to the dealer service dept for all maintenance asking them to check the trans have complained of the slipping and told every time it is way the trans works. I have 60k miles on this vehicle I am concerned that the trans will fail while I am on the road and cause a deadly accident. 8/10 I had an app't for an oil change. I requested a vehicle check and check brakes as they did not seem to be working as they should. Was informed the vehicle needed front/back brakes and that rotors needed replaced. I only traveled about 15 miles when I heard a clinking sound in left rear it sounded as if a lug nut loose when I stopped the rear of my vehicle lowered and when moving it sounded like a bucket of metal in my rear wheel. I turned into a parking. When backing up the vehicle froze I stopped, called service department of freedom. I had my vehicle towed back to the service dept. Was told issue was brakes were not installed/secured properly. I asked that all the brakes be inspected, if the tech did not know how to install one there was a concern for the other 3 wheels I did not want to take a chance of having a fatal crash. I also asked that all work be reinspected. When explaining what had happened it was obvious rep was speaking beyond scope of her knowledge � this was very frustrating I was placed in a very dangerous situation due to the poor workmanship of the tech. The story did not make sense the more she tried to explain it was more convoluted. I was transferred to the service mger who explained what happened, admitted that brake failure was tech's fault. In light of all the times I have had the Jeep into service dept complaining about trans does not give me a level of confidence that there is not something significant with the trans I would like an investigation into this matter.
My 2014 Jeep Cherokee latitude at 41000 miles had a brake failure. Now at 51000 miles the engine has been stalling while in motion and shifting into neutral. The dealership told me after the 2nd time in for this problem that the vehicle was 3. 5 quarts low on oil and the engine had shut off to "protect itself" . The car has been parked for in my garage for 3 days, after driving it for about 3 miles the check engine light came on, upon checking it is again low on oil. I have had the car serviced as recommended and don't understand this sudden oil use, there are no signs of leakage or smoking, and the warning system is not indicating low oil pressure. It is going back to the dealership Monday morning.
