Engine Stall problems of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Engine stalls, wont start or dies right after starting, I think it is part of a recall with no fix available. If in motion it dies and losses power. Put in neutral to start while rolling! this happens more and more frequently lately.

Tl the contact owns a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee. While driving 60 mph, the engine stalled without warning. The contact powered off the engine, restarted the vehicle, and was able to drive normally. The contact stated that the rpms were decreasing, which caused the vehicle to slow down. The contact mentioned that the vehicle stalled while driving at a low speed. The battery was replaced, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The VIN was included in NHTSA campaign number: 19v813000 (electrical system). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 109,000.

Vehicle's engine stalls unexpectedly while driving. The car was bought in 2018 and the engine stalled for the first time in February 2019. The engine stalled again in June 2020 and twice in February 2021. The engine stalls while driving usually while making a right turn. I was in danger because the car suddenly went dead with cars behind me. I could have easily been rear-ended in all of those instances. Recall was performed, but engine stalled again about two weeks after the fuel pump relay was replaced. The engine stalling while driving causes the car to stop suddenly, and it can result in injuries, car accident, loss of life and or property damage. Lester glenn dealership is where I bought the car from and they were the ones who replaced the fuel pump relay. They had the car for two months after I brought it in when the engine stalled again after the fuel pump relay was replaced. Chrysler was contacted and they closed the case due to the dealership telling them that they cannot reciprocate the issue.

The engine instantly stalls without warning at any given time or speed while driving on a street or highway. The stall unexpectedly forces the driver into an unsafe operating position having to pull off to the side of the road without the assistance of power steering or power brakes. After coming to a complete stop, the vehicle must then be shifted back into park and restarted. The vehicle has stalled a minimum of 30 times on separate occasions over the last 12 months. The vehicle was examined by our local Jeep dealer and they were unable to determine the cause of the stalling or provide us with a course of action to resolve the issue.

Since September 2017, my 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee has been in the repair shop four times due to the vehicle not starting. The alternator and battery was checked once per month up until December, but each time I was informed that both parts were in good condition based on the diagnostics. However, after each repair visit the vehicle would not start after a few days. Between repair visits a number of other issues occured: *automatically accelerating at high speed (Jan �18) *engine stalling while driving (Jan �18) *blowing cool air on one side and hot air on the other (sept �17) *doors locking and unlocking when unattended (sept �17) *windows going down half way when unattended (oct �17) *radio powering on when turned to the off position (Nov �17) the most recent incident happened two weeks ago when the car stalled and stopped in the middle of a busy stretch of road with three vehicles in close proximity. Due to ongoing issues, this week I had the car towed to Jeep for another assessment. The Jeep adviser called me back the next day stating my battery and alternator needed to be replaced for $1282 otherwise the car wouldn't start without a constant charge. The battery was just replaced a year ago in June 2017. With all of the issues mentioned it's clear that the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee has a design issue/flaw that poses a major safety concern for consumers. The issues that need to be investigated or re-investigated for the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee are the alternator and power module replacement. Most, if not all of the issues mentioned could be directly linked to the tipm. My request is that cas, NHTSA, and Chrysler consider or reconsider the above mentioned for both safety concerns and the undue repair expenses paid by consumers that appear to be directly linked to faulty design.

Engine stalled out at 40 mph upon entering a right turn exit ramp. No power steering or brakes were available until I was able to stop the vehicle and restart engine. Concerned if airbags would deploy if engine was off and vehicle in motion.

Jeep engine stalled out with no warning while driving 60 mph down the interstate.

On multiple occasions, our 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee overland 5. 7l engine stalls while braking and trying to turn corners. Recall p54 to replace fuel pump relay to correct this issue was done in November 2015, but the issue has continued. Most recently occurred sept 8th, 11th and now today the 14th. Had vehicle in for diagnostics on sept 13th and Jeep technicians were unable to find the problem. When this stalling occurs, there are no warning lights and apparently no fault codes generated. When motor stalls, we lose power steering and brakes and have ended up on the wrong side of road trying to get stopped. This usually happens when decelerating and braking to turn off or onto a highway.

Jeep gc2011 engine stalls while driving! current recall under Chrysler #t36 and NHTSA #17v435 only covers year 2012-2014. Chrysler needs to be notified to include year 2011. Ongoing issues of staling and complaints for 2011 has been logged since 2012 and is a serious mechanical issue that should be under the recall. If anyone has experienced staling please document and send the complaint or if you know someone who has died from this please file to save others!.

When I come to a stop/slow down the engine intermittently stalls - typically this is when I'm driving on city streets when I'm stopping. It has happened while turning both left and right, going up hill and down hill, and more often when the engine is cool. The fuel level can be full or low and it still happens. Friday may 19, 2017 it happened four times in a 20 mile trip on roads with speed limits ranging from 30mph to 55mph, once at a stop light, once at a round about, once at a stop sign, and once at a left hand turn. P54 recall was already addressed.

While driving at a constant speed on the highway, the engine stalled causing the brakes and power steering to be disabled. The first time it happened, 11/12/16, I was taking an exit off of the freeway. When I pressed the brake to slow down for the approaching red light, the pedal was stiff and would bot slow the vehicle. Thankfully, the light turned green so I let the vehicle coast. As I went to turn right, I realized there was no power steering either. After crossing over 2 lanes I was able to bring the car to a stop on the side of the road. That's when I realized the engine had stalled. Brought it to the dealership, paid $700 for something, then drove it back since they said it was fixed. Five months later, 4/20/17, same exact thing happened. It was 8:30am and I was bringing my 18mo old to daycare when I pressed the brake pedal to stop at a red light ahead and realize it was stiff and not working again. Fortunately, again, the light turned green and the car in front of me accelerated. I fought with the steering wheel to turn into a nearby gas station after the letting vehicle coast to a slower speed. After both incidences, I turned the vehicle off, waited a few minutes, then turned it back on. It hesitated a few times then cranked and functioned properly afterwards. Furthermore, during both incidences I was very slightly turning to the right; the first time to exit the hwy and the second time I was veering into the right lane. During the first incident, I was travelling on the freeway around 65mph. During the second, I was traveling at about 50mph.

My car engine stalls when I make turns specially early in the morning for no reason it just stalls without warning but sometimes when I came to a stop light as well, very very unsafe & scary!!! I've been lucky usually in the lane close to the sidewalk so I can maneuver to the side but eventually my luck will run out, I'm very unease when I drive this vehicle as I don't when I'll happen. The tipm was already taken care of but I still have the problem is not all the time but it happens, I've taken it to the dealer right after it happens but they can not reproduce the problem or find any error codes.

While driving 55 mph on the freeway the esc light came on and then my engine stalled, power steering and brakes shut off. I had to get to the side of the road and slowly coast to the exit! with my two kids (both under 4) in the car. Talk about scary!!!! I had my car towed to a Jeep service center and after 4 days with my car - they said they could not duplicate nor find any issues. I had to pay $200. 00 for that answer…. Which I was not happy with!!! then today (July 12, 2015) while slowing down at a stop light - the same thing happened again!!!!!.

On 5/25 approximately 2:30 pm while merging onto the highway vehicle stopped accelerating and steering locked up and engine stalled out while in the right lane of the highway. Had to drift over to shoulder on left hand side on highway where speed limit 65 mph but drivers often do 75-80 mph. Vehicle would not restart and had to be towed.

The alternator failed and the tipm also. There is no charging light in the dash so it was impossible to know there were a problem since the battery was dead and the engine stall. After that, there were no light, no power brake and the car won't start anymore. Even after replacing the alternator ( which is cost 1000 each. ) the alternator do not charge because the tipm failed too. Overall, it cost 2200$ to repair and I lost my car for 4 weeks !.
