In early 2021, the doorhandle on the driver's side of my car froze in minimal snow/freezing rain. The electronics in the doorhandle were corrupted, and broke. This cause a short in the system, making my car lock and unlock itself uncontrolled, thereby draining the battery. The car could not be jumpstarted for this reason because the battery was perpetually drained. It required being towed, and the remedy took several months. This is completely unreasonable, for a small freeze to totally "brick" an off-road vehicle because of a doorhandle issue.

I received a notification a few times saying service transmission. The light would stay on for a day then go away. Upon the third time or receiving this message I noticed my car started shifting hard while accelerating. I had someone check my codes and I received 3 codes. B10e9, b10ea, and p1db7. I have read so many similar problems with this vehicle and I noticed my VIN is not on the recall list. I only had this car for 2 months before I got any of these messages and started having these issues. I can't afford to fix this at the moment and it's really stressful trying to figure out what is wrong with my car. Its very dangerous to drive. Please help.

I pulled into a parking space in front of ace hardware on main street in east islip new york. I put the car in park. As I took my foot off the brake the car continued moving forward and hit a stack of wheelbarrels in front of the hardware store. It damaged my license plate on the front end of the car the license plate bracket and put a significant crack in the paint on the front bumper. I have also noticed that at other times when I put the car in park and take my foot off the brake the vehicle moves forward or backward as much as 2 inches after being put in park. This occurred on June 23rd 2020.

I have a photo of this sticker. Inside on the car's body frame of the driver's side of my 2017 Jeep, there is a sticker that says: this vehicle may include Mercury -- added devices installed by the manufacturer: video display (which I have to touch to operate the radio and phone call free feature) navigation/camera display (which I have to touch to operate the radio and phone call free feature) hdi headlamps (which I touch when I wash my car) remove devices before vehicle's disposal. Upon removal of devices, please reuse, recycle or dispose as hazardous waste. When I travel (on a straight road like interstate 5 in washington and oregon) for more than 3 hours, I get nauseous, dizzy, and do not feel well for hours afterwards. This has been an on-going scenario. I had asked my mechanic to check the ac system, clean all of the vents, and replace the filters and it still did not fix my reaction to driving in the car or being just a passenger. This is unacceptable! please recall and rectify this hazardous situation immediately among all owners of a 2017 Jeep. Why it is always in the hands of the consumer to make things right? why can't corporations just do the right thing for its customers and the earth? this blatant irresponsibility and corporate greed is getting so old.

Water has leaked in to my vehicle and caused issues with the electronic parking brake to short out and need to be serviced. The epb now automatically engages itself when putting the vehicle in park, causing us to be stranded. Upon investigation, it appears as though numerous individuals with my vehicle that have a sunroof experience the same issue, possibly due to drainage tubes installed by Jeep that they did not make owners aware of.

Driving in the freeway and have an accident due to the malfunctioning front collision warning and the not working sensors.

I was in an accident severe enough to total the vehicle but none of the many air bags deployed. I rear ended a vehicle on the freeway. I was just concerned since I am unaware what speed I was going at the point of impact. The front of my vehicle was pushed back toward the windsheild pretty far. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures. I just wanted to express my concerns. We did test the car and there aparently no failure of the air bag system, so maybe no problem.

I was traveling on route 18 a 55 mph road yesterday and hit some ice or center rumble strips in the road. My car went into a large ditch. The front end of my car is severely damaged. The driver side airbag did not deploy. I find this very disturbing. Definitely a safety issue!!.

I was getting gas with my baby in the car with me when I tried to shift into park the car was stuck. The emergency brake engages itself. When I looked around and in the back I noticed water in the spare tire wheel well. I understand the electrical component to the emergency brake is underneath this. I followed the water trail (it rained the night before) and saw a huge crack in my frame when the lift gate was up. Which, to me is where the water is coming from. I got it to my dealership, somehow and it's there currently. I called my insurance company, they will not cover because I did not have an action that caused this problem (such as an accident). They advised me this is a manufacturing problem.

I bought a brand new 2019 Jeep Cherokee trail hawk from an amarillo texas dealership. I noticed when I bought the vehicle the hood was shaking and the wind was picking it up like it was loose. I took it in 3 times to have it fixed. The first time they said the factory misaligned the hood at the factory and they realigned it. It still was shaking and coming up. Took it back 2nd time they adjusted it again, took it home same problem, not fixed. Took it back a third time they looked at it said they did all they could do to fix it. I have been driving a brand new vehicle that is unsafe on the highway. My hood still catches air pulls up and slams down and an engine light has come on 3 times. I have children that ride in this car. I dont drive on windy days because I feel unsafe in the car. It feels like the latch on the hood is going to give way and my hood is going to come up and hit my windshield. I am protected under the lemon law and nothing is being done about this safety concern. I need an investigation conducted on my vehicle . As of right now it is unsafe to drive. My hood doesn't sit flush with the body of the car and you can fit all of your fingers in the gap between the hood and body of car.

When the fd arrived they concluded it was most likely a manufacturing defect or electrical. My insurance company has since looked at the vehicle with a fire inspector and also corporate Jeep and has determined it is a manufacturing defect of some sort. Jeep corporate is now launching a 30 day investigation.

Since the day I picked up this 2019 Jeep Cherokee limited two weeks ago, the hood shakes and flutters in certain driving conditions causing safety concerns. Driving into high winds and over 55 mph, air gets under the hood in such a way that it seems as if the hood could break loose causing either injuries or an accident. It gets even worse when driving in side winds and meeting semi trucks. It actually appears that the gust of wind coming off the truck is going to take the hood off of the vehicle. Driving this Cherokee in these conditions has personally caused me very high anxiety to the point where I am constantly focused on the hood rather than the road. When meeting semi trucks on the highway, I pull as far to the right as possible sometimes completely going off the road in an attempt to minimize the wind gust. These are major safety concerns to me and I don't feel safe driving this vehicle on public roads. It has gotten to the point where I have to take anti anxiety medication just to get the courage to drive on the highway, thus causing other safety issues and feeling as if I'm being an irresponsible driver. The Jeep dealer has adjusted the hood latch and bumpers but the problem still exists just as it did when I purchased the vehicle.

Our teenage boys were traveling at a safe speed, did not hit a pothole or other object, and did not swerve when the right front axle snapped.

Although a winding road the axle snapped during a straight portion.

Water intrusions into my car door on driver-seat during the rainy days. I had to release the pooling water inside the driver-seat door by removing panel clips at the bottom of car door.

The tail lights become clouded due to condensation that appears after the running lights have warmed up the inside of the tail light housing. This occurs in all weather conditions. Condensation does dissipate or fade away when lights and the car have been turned off and stationary for some time.

There is water entering the vehicle in the rear passenger seat and in the spare tire cargo area when it rains. It is pooling up in these areas and there are electrical components right by this.
