Wheel Problems of Jeep Cherokee - part 2

Myself - along with thousands are having the dreaded p0520 code come on!!! there is a TSB (has been one for 7 years) for this problem! yet, since it seems to fail right out of warranty - thousands are being affected. Previously-the 2014 Jeep compass SUV is among the 522 vehicles recalled by Chrysler alongside the 2014 Jeep patriot SUV, 2013 Dodge avenger, and Chrysler 200, all of which are equipped with 2. 4-liter engines that are touted to have engine oil pressure loss issues that may lead to sudden engine stall or failure because of this same oil pressure switch issue "! yet no recall on 2014 models when the issue is so widely well known!? problems --large oil leak, could have gone on fire or seized the engine. Turns out the oil filter housing assemble was cracked which seems quite common in this make, mode and year. The oil filter housing is cracked and it is a known issue with my vehicle. One morning there was a large amount of oil under my vehicle. At this time there are so many open issues with this defected part that I am unable to get this part cause there are 5800 people in line before me waiting for this part. I am unsure where to start to have this recalled but I would like to move in the direction of having that done. Please help! I read online that there was a possible petition started for this very issue. . Read more...

We own a 2016 Jeep Cherokee. Last night my wife was stranded with a flat along a busy highway. She attempted to change the tire but could not get the lug nuts off. I drove to the site and yes every lug nut on this vehicle are swelled and will not budge even with impact wrench. The issue I have is this is a known problem and people are talking about it all over the internet. Yet Jeep refuses to admit the issue or even warn it's customers to check this in case you get a flat. My wife is now scared to drive this vehicle anywhere. I get my oil changed at a Jeep dealership. You think they could warn their customers about this issue? you think they would check for this issue when we bring the vehicle in for service at an authorized Jeep dealership? why did I have to learn of this issue after the fact. Why did I have to learn of this issue on the internet?.

On a Sunday the 25th October my vehicle was parked at home getting ready to go to the shops didn't want to go forward but it was automatically reversing. It changed to low gear and didn't wanna increase speed above 40km/hr, it deactivated all sensors. It lost power and started jacking but was only reversing. I called Jeep sa sandton on Monday as it did the same thing they said it must be town must towed. On arrival I was told m vehicle has ptu problem, it is not transmitting power to the front wheels. And I need to pay for replacement of ptu. I asked what causes this ptu, the service girls said she doesn't know. I googled and discovered that my vehicle was recalled for this ptu software update because these cars experience this problem. But no one informed me despite that my car went for a service with Jeep in may. The dealer and fca johannesburg is refusing to fix the damage and to update the software, the car has been with them for 2 weeks, and I am told I need to pay, while the information is clear that the recall was worldwide, and irrespective if your car is still under warrant or not the ptu needs to be updated and replaced by dealer free of charge.

While in motion both on highway (~70mph) or neighborhood driving (~25mph), dash board lights flash, speedometers wind and the error message �4wd system temporarily unavailable� comes on screen with traction warning light and red indicator dot light. Resin volume also diminished. This will not reset until car is turned off for ~5 minutes. This has happened both with short drives of 15 minutes and during longer drives of 1hour.

I was driving and was trying to accelerate was going about 42 and my car dropped the gear and my car immediately slowed down to about 38mph and the car behind me almost slammed into the rear of the car. This has happened on multiple occasions. I have contacted my dealership on many occasions and they tell me nothing is wrong and I bring it to other mechanics and they tell me they have issues all the time with this make and model of this vehicle. I drive with a small child in the car and I feel completely unsafe. I am so furious with my Jeep dealership located on route 88 in brick new jersey. No one wants to take accountability. My second issue is with the lug screws in the tires they keep becoming �swollen� after replacing them constantly I was told yet again they need to be replaced and they are not cheap to keep replacing. And last my air bags censor has been replaced at least twice the driver airbag censor keeps popping up on my dashboard.

I have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee latitude it has over 100,000 miles over it I just recently had the transmission service which was no more than fluid change. Recently while driving to a restaurant to pick up some dinner the parking brake service light came on yellow indication came on I was just driving normal weather no snow no rain sitting in line at the drive-thru. I pulled into a parking spot to place it in park and to see if I could release the parking brake as the parking brake indicator light was on. Once I place the vehicle in park the emergency parking brake engaged the brake light came on and it will not release. Had the vehicle towed to my house which is less than a mile away call the dealership and they just kept asking for codes there was no codes to be given. I have tried many solutions including of disconnecting the battery pulling the fuses I have pulled the brake module from the back now that there was a little moisture in there. I tried it out and ride it let it sit a day or two. The brake will not release. Local dealership wants me to bring it in for an expensive diagnosis. After jacking up the vehicle myself I was able to determine that it was only the driver side that will not release. I was also told by the dealer that if I just rocked it between reverse and drive that it would release. It did release once but I literally had to drive with the parking brake on until it did let's not do that again. I replace the module with one I found online from another Jeep Cherokee and it did not correct the problem. Local dealerships have no idea have never heard of it was no help whatsoever.

We were driving from tallahassee to cape canaveral florida. As we neared gainesville the car handling became erratic. At the time we were on the interstate and traveling at normal highway speed in heavy traffic. We stopped in gainesville at a cooper dealer and they said a front tire tread had shifted. A new tire was purchased. We continued our trip and after about 1 hour the same handling problem occurred just as we got on the florida turnpike. . The car was taken to a cooper dealer in lee florida and we were advised that the other front tire had failed due to the same reason. Tires had about 13,00 miles on them. Another new tire was purchased. When we returned home I contacted cooper. Their first response was to see a dealer. I then received an email stating that they would have the tires picked up and sent to their factory. Another email was then received saying to see a dealer. Four cooper ultra touring tires were purchased 04/27/2018. The two front tires failed on August 29/2019. Mileage at purchase was just over 28,000 and failed at 41,000. Tires had been rotated twice. ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly #vpic#.

The lug bolts have a thin chrome cover. These lug bolts seem to swell as moisture enters over time. They also become damaged as maintenance such as tire rotation is performed. They become impossible to remove with the tools supplied by the manufacturer in the event of a flat tire, leaving the vehicle stranded. I understand this is a well known problem throughout the fiat Chrysler group line.

Since January of 2018 I have been having constant problems internally with my Jeep. I got the Jeep in April of 2017 with 14 miles total on it. The Jeep dealership never rotated my tires when they changed my oil and told me they did rotate my tires resulting in me having to get a brand new set of 4 tires in 2018 because all the tires went completely bald (too dangerous to drive on). My first of 4 cylinders went out in January 2019 that was fixed on warranty. Second cylinder of 4 that was a different cylinder than the first went out February of 2019 the Jeep dealership gave me a good year program and made me pay a fee and they fixed all 4 cylinders. Currently in November 2019 my engine light is coming on and I do not know what the issue is now. I have talked to several Jeep dealerships that has not seen this issue on other Jeeps so I really believe I got sold a poorly manufactured Jeep.

Rear brakes were vibrating upon firm braking pressure at speed of 55-60. Dealer replaced rear rotors upon verifying vibration. "new rear rotors" had same vibrations and are now rusting at areas other then brake surfaces. Please see photos.

First we weren't able to take vehicle home the day we signed the finance papers, 8/19/18, due to battery being dead. We then picked up car on 8/20/18. Kept vehicle till around the 23rd. The Jeep Cherokee turned off in traffic and went into battery protection mode. We had to put car in park and restart. We were almost rear-ended. I then called dealership to talk to salesman and he was busy so I asked for manager who then told me that the salesman would call me back. When I told salesman about the incident I was told to drive with start-stop function off and to wait till next day to see if it did it again. The vehicle didn't start in the morning and then tried second time and it turned on in battery protection mode so I took it in to dealership and was given a loaner. We then picked up Cherokee on or around 8/31/18. We were told the battery was recharged. The Cherokee then started to turn off again in traffic so I took it back on 9/5/18. I was given another loaner. I was then told to pick up Cherokee on 9/18/18. I was told that they didn't find anything and couldn't recreate the incident. Ever since we received the Cherokee back on the 18th we keep the start-stop function off. Now the tire pressure sensors keep coming on and off and the gas is going at a faster rate then before. Not sure if sensors are working correctly. Took car back to dealership on Sunday 10/14/18 and was told to call service the next day because they had no loaners. Today 10/21/18 vehicle turned off while driving out of parking space. Car restarted but do not trust driving this vehicle with my family inside. There has been several times the vehicle didn't accelerate while stepping on the gas pedal.

I had a flat tire. After mounting the spare tire and torqueing the lug bolts, (yes they are bolts not nuts) I found that the wheel was still loose. I determined that this was caused by the lug bolts being too long for the steel spare wheel which is not the same thickness as the aluminum factory wheels.
