We bought this car for my 17-year-old son from carfax. It seemed great for a few months, but the engine starting shutting off while he was driving the car on the busy roads of houston. When we put oil in the car, the engine shutoff stops, but it comes back within a month. It is very dangerous. He has had a number of close calls. Please help!.
Car shut off while driving on the freeway. Thankfully coasted to the side of the freeway with minimal use of the steering wheel. I put it in park and got it to start again. Then it occurred again a few minutes later after I had exited the freeway on a side street. Again put the car in park and then got it to restart again. Very dangerous. All of this with a baby in the backseat.
I drive a 2019 Jeep grand charokee latitude. I approached a stop light last month at a major intersetion and the engine shut off. The car behind me almost rearended me with my new born. Omg this car is not safe to drive if it just shuts off for no reason. Later this month the front suspension started making alot of noise. The car has 43000 miles. Observed the passanger side strut mount clip that keep the strut from seperating from wheel wheel loose. Strut failed and caused issues with drive train. Car is on blocks in my garage know awaiting struts and strut mounts. The Jeep used a very small plastic clip to secure the top part of the strut, so in my case when the strut failed, the clip came loose and almost seperated leaveing the top of strut un-attached to anything omg! this a hug safty issue. Why has NHTSA not investigated this poor design. A placstic clip to hold a strut that is supporting the front end of a vehicle!!.

Then get a call from service saying it was going to cost $400 to fix and I no was paying for another financial mess with another veh; rec'd call from ser. Empl. Nothing wrong with veh- mistaken my car's p/k with auto just need to put my auto back�this is extermly unsafe because I have been teaching my daughters how to drive they wouldnt know how to respond.

The "d" starts blinking in drive and the vehicle starts indefinite reversing. . . . . . This SUV also has bad fuel efficiency getting 12 mile per gallon on freeway and road. Not safe.

This vehicle is using 4 qt of oil for ever 3800 miles traveled. It has a capacity of 5. 5 qts. The oil warning light does not come on when the oil is low. My experience with this is when I was making a hard left turn the car shut off while driving on a busy 3 lane roadway. When this happens, all the warning lights blink such as oil, battery, transmission. I had to put the vehicle in park and restart the engine. The car was brand new. Only 3800 miles on it. When I called the dealer they said to check the oil. It was 4 qts low. This has happened again just recently at 19990 miles on the vehicle.
On 6/8/2019, I pulled through my gate, left the vehicle in park to close the gate which takes a few seconds. My vehicle completely shut down. Restarted, ac was off, audio also off. Drove for about 35 miles, made 2 stops, all ok. Next leg of trip approx 20 miles, coming into another town and approaching traffic light. At the light as I stopped, the vehicle again shut down in drive at the stop light in considerable amount of traffic. This was not the auto stop/start, it shut down again. Had to put in park, it did restart, and again, ac off, audio off. Proceeded to my next stop where the vehicle tried to shut down as I pulled into parking spot, I was able to complete parking. Upon returning to the vehicle, it started, but now have back up camera failure which has not worked since that episode. This was terribly dangerous as I was in a lot of traffic and was helpless until I got it to restart.

2019 Jeep Cherokee lattitude- engine shuts off while driving. I bought my car brand new I reached 4000 miles and I was driving to work my car died and the battery light came on, car went into failure mode so was hard to steer and my flashers would not go on, I sat for a few minutes and tried to restart and the car hesitated and turned over. Two weeks later same thing in the same exact spot. I brought my car to suresky the dealer I bought it from and they said its because it needed an oil change. Once they completed my oil change they told me my oil was barely on the dipstick. This is a brand new car with 6000 miles with synthetic oil I shouldnt have oil loss. I have read online there are 188 other people that have reported this same issue. I am afraid to let my kids drive this due to driver inexperience. Jeep is aware of the issue and will not recall the vehicles, because of the loss they will take, what is it going ot take someone dying because that is what is going to happen, and then Chrysler is going to be sued for not taking the safety of the consumers to heart.

While driving, on a residential street, the engine shut down for no apparent reason. I had to put it in park and restart the car.

I do not want to experience this 3 times. Yesterday I traded cars, bought a different one. I'm 77 years old and I'm too scared to take a chance on a car that does that.
