general problems of the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee - part 2

Sunroof shattered while driving on the interstate. There was no impact to sunroof prior to and no known past impact to sunroof leading up to it shattering. The sunroof had previously shattered mid-drive on may 11, 2023. Impact to the sunroof had been heard ~2 weeks prior. The sunroof was fully replaced at the Jeep dealership the following week. Had sunroof shade been open, glass pieces would have posed a potential safety risk to driver and passengers eyes and drivers attention to the road. The vehicle component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, insurance, or law enforcement. No warning messages or symptoms were present to alert to the issue.

This issue has now happened 3 times. The first time it happened I took it in and they said it was an auxiliary battery that was replaced. The issue is the vehicle will stall and shutoff completely because it is completely out of fuel even though the electronic gauge and the needle show it has gas in it. This Saturday we was driving on the interstate at around 70mph and it showed a little over a 1/4 tank on the needle and 130 miles to empty on the digital readout. It shutoff completely and we were almost hit on the interstate from behind I barely had enough coast to get over to the side of the road. The first time it happened it shutoff and was going much slower and it actually started back up and let me drive. The second time I was siting at the gas station with a little lesss than 1/4 showing on the needle and it shutoff and wouldn't start back until we pushed it to the pump and put gas in it. When this happens it never takes a full tank to fill it back up so there is gas in the vehicle. This is very dangerous.

While changing the tire on my vehicle, the jack shot from under the right rear passenger area of the car to the front center of the car. This happened while the vehicle was raised and the tire was removed, this caused the right rear brake rotor to fall on the asphalt parking lot. Luckily no part of my body was under the vehicle at the time, or I could have been killed.

While trying to start the Jeep with the keyfob in the vehicle the Jeep will not start and I get keyfob not detected error on my dash. Followed by hold keyfob to start button to start.

I change my oil religiously on my 2020 Grand Cherokee, which has 67,000 miles on it. I went in today to change it at bettenhausen Dodge (bettenhausen motor sales inc - Jeep, 8355 w 159th st, tinley park, IL 60477; bettenhausencdjr. Com; phone: (708) 966-3122), and ryan, the service manager manager, told me I had no oil left in my car. He said something went wrong with a pump or something, and as a result I have no engine oil left. . And as a result some engine oil went into the radiator and other places. Plus, ryan added, they don't know yet if my engine is damaged as a result. Repairing only what they can see so far (I. E. , radiator, pump, hoses etc and that's only if the engine was not damaged, which ostensibly they said they would check before work begins) will cost at least $4700. I asked why no "idiot red light" (as such warning lights used to be called, and such lights have been in every car I have owned since 1972) went on to alert me that there was no engine oil left in the car?? the manager said , none of their cars has a "low oil and/or no oil light". All they have is a computer program which informs the driver when to change the oil< and that computer warning system simply is based on miles driven, and it does not inform one if there is no engine oil or low oil. I can not hardly believe there is no red light to tell a person that there is low and/or no engine oil in the car!! the technology behind "idiot red lights" informing the driver of low oil and/or no oil has been around for over 70 years. I am I being lied to? what can I turn for help?.

Hello, before two months I bought preowned Grand Cherokee north edition with 15. 500 miles. When I start driving for the first few minutes I hear a sound like whistling, and it's like the engine is having a hard time getting up to speed. Also very often when I shift the transmission into reverse I hear a knock.

The leather dashboard is bubbling and wrinkling. I read that this can cause the entire dashboard to come off if the airbags were to deploy. I’ve also seen other complaints where it continues to bubble up so high that it decreases visibility.

On July 1, 2022, in the morning, the right rear passenger door window in my 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee spontaneously exploded and then, in the evening of the same day, the rear hatch window also spontaneously exploded. The vehicle was purchased new in June of 2020 and has been driven approximately 57000 miles. There was no evidence of damage to the windows prior to the explosions.

I was evacuating the colorado marshall fires and my 2020 grand Jeep cherokee with 20,000 miles just quit while driving down the road. It was slow moving traffic out of the area with 100 mph winds, heavy smoke and debris flying through the air. As I tried to restart it, there was a message about some sensor, but unclear as to what exactly the message was. The engine would not turn over. The car was partially blocking traffic and caught on fire approximately 10 minutes after it stopped. Those evacuating were down to one lane and navigating around a burning car. No investigation is possible as it is completed burned up. I have followed all of the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedules and have had zero incidents with this Jeep prior to this. I would like some sort of investigation as to the cause (an assessment of the situation as there is no car left to inspect). I do not want this happening to another person/family as they are trying to get out of a dangerous situation. I was lucky in that there were others evacuating, however, had I been in an isolated area, my dogs and I could have been dead.

My safety as well as other drivers safety are at risk when you down the highway at a speed between 70 & 75 miles an hour and all off a sudden your engine quits, I was told it goes into limp mode, I turned off engine, started it again could not get power, turn off engine again waited a few minutes and it finally gave me some power, was told by the dealership that they could not find anything the computer may have reset itself, in a one week period it did twice, I nearly got hit or the person could have got killed hitting me. This is definitely a safety issue I think this should be a recall.

Bought Jeep in December 2020. Currently at 8000 miles. In October 2021, the vehicle would not turn off. The push button would go between acc and start but not in the off. Dealership has never seen this and after 8 days, are not able to definitively tell me what the issue is. The assumption has been given that the car is not recognizing that the vehicle is in park. This is an assumption as whatever diagnosis that is being done is not finding the error.

While driving on the highway I heard a loud sound, like a gunshot and my sunroof had shattered onto me.

I was merging onto a highway after work and my sunroof exploded. There were no other vehicles, bridges, or any other objects around me. This could have been a real bad situation if it occurred with other vehicles around me. The local Jeep dealership refused to cover the repairs under warranty stating that, "looks like an object hit my sunroof". There are no other markings around the sunroof.

The sunroof exploded and a sound like a bomb or gun went off. Most of the glass blew out of the car but I had some drop on my head, neck and shoulder. The glass went everywhere. I later found that I had glass fragements in my right eye as well. The doctor took them out. I took the dealership and they were going to replace it and then I got an email saying it was going to be under investigation. 10-14 days or longer. I am a senior adult and work a part time job. This is my only car. The runaround continues. I received an email about the investigation and no phone number. I just want my car fixed. This was my dream car and now its a nightmare car. As soon as it is repaired I will never have another Jeep. The service has been terrible. The staff at the dealership tried to be helpful but their hands are tied. Frustrated since I did nothing wrong.

While driving 60 miles per hour along the southbound express lane of garden state parkway my new 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee started shaking. Within seconds, I pulled on to the grassy area next to the fast lane where my vehicle died. After getting towed to the dealership, I was notified that my new car with 329 miles on it is in need of a new engine, new batteries and new starter. Of notable concern on the repair order is the following: "what is present inside intake manifold is pieces of metal. " while the case is not yet closed, Chrysler informed me they intend to fix the vehicle under warranty and return it to me. This is a serious safety concern and I fear the blown engine, dead batteries and starter could have caused additional, unrecognized damage.

The sos button in the car and the assist button in the car don't work. If you push either you get a busy signal. Sos is for emergy help. I took it to the dealreship. After a couple weeks of fca collecting data they finally told the dealership it is a know problem. I have the car back, but, these features do not work. If my cell phone is damage I can not use sos to get help. They said they would let me know when there is a fix.

The car was parked on a city street, and the engine off over night sometime early in the morning with the car still off and parked an electrical fire started on the front passenger side.

There is a thumping noise coming from the rear of the vehicle while in motion. It is getting worse and we are not sure what it is and the service department has been unable to fix it. We are concerned with it getting worse the more miles we put on the car.

I was involved in a head on collision with a snow plow mounted to a Ford f-250 where significant front end damage was done to the vehicle, and the airbags didn't deploy. There's no way possible these airbags should have not been deployed.

I was slowly backing into a driveway when the Jeep Grand Cherokee suddenly accelerated on its own. I repeatedly hit the brake pedal but the Jeep wouldn't stop; instead it kept going faster. It smashed into the garage door and the brick wall of the garage, demolishing them. The Jeep was brand new with only 500 miles driven, and it was equipped with a complete safety package that should have automatically stopped it before an impending impact but it did not do so. This was an extremely terrifying experience and it felt like a nightmare.

Screen constantly freezes and it's unresponsive for long periods of time, then reboots. Then the cycle repeats. Serious safety hazard as the back up camera image freezes on the screen and doesn't change, even though your moving and the image video should have changed. This has been happening since the car was bought new and dealership says they're nothing that can be done.
