Was traveling in the fast lane of highway when the engine just stopped. Able to coast to shoulder of highway. Put car in park and tried to restart the engine. It would not restart. Gas tank was 1/4 full. Had to be towed. The same situation happened in Feb 2020 but the weather was bad and the dealer could not find a problem so it was blamed on the moisture in the electrical system.

Got a Check engine light on, took it to near by auto parts store they hooked it up to a code reader and got a code of P105D, after doing some research it seems to be a very common issue with 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokees, makes it very uncertain if vehicle is going to still be able to drive seems like the car wants to stall out, car is stuttering, shaking, and loosing power, MPG, Battery power, and oil pressure is going crazy. Vehicle has not been inspected by a Manufacturer ect. Prior to the check engine light the vehicle would stutter, shake and seem to want to stall.

When driving the vehicle it's like the transmission is slipping through the first few gears then all of a sudden it takes off. if you try to accelerate it just winds up and then bang it takes off. when coming to a stop it downshifts hard. When driving around a corner you slow down your foot off the pedal, then when you get through the corner you go to accelerate again and it has a dead spot, no power, it's like it died and you have nothing then again it takes right off. Really dangerous, I first thought the car was dead, with no power but then it takes off like a rocket. It acts worse when the start-stop button is depressed so that the engine stops at red lights or when the vehicle comes to a stop. If you turn that off the vehicle seems to run a little better but still cuts out. Almost like someone flicking a light switch off and on with the power of the vehicle. The dealership says they are booked out until March 25th to even take a look at it.

My car recently started making a grinding noise that got bad really fast. I had it towed to the dealership to get a diagnostic test done. I was told that it was my transfer case that was making the noise. Now this caught me by surprise because I had no warning lamps on my dashboard or no messages alerting me of any problems that would point to it needing servicing done it just happened out the blue. Because of this problem my car has a hard time accelerating and this is no good to me because I live in Atlanta Georgia where there is nothing but Highway and hills. My car makes a constant grinding noise no matter how fast I-€™m going or how hard I press on the gas. With the acceleration of the vehicle being bad I have almost been in a few incidences where people have almost rear ended me. An inspection by the manufacturer has not been done as of yet. I would just like to know what can be done about this especially because my car STILL has no warning lamps and the grinding is so bad that I can no longer drive it.

1. The vehicle was in park and it proceeded to move forward by itself. 2. The vehicle could have easily hit myself, my father or my dog. 3. I will report the incident to the dealership today. 4. There was no warning lamp present. The vehicle was on. It was in park. I had exited the vehicle and the door was closed. The vehicle then moved forward by itself and crashed into my parents' car. I had to enter the moving vehicle to address the situation.

Driving down the highway and power/acceleration did not work. I had to cross lanes of traffic to pull over the vehicle.

Problem in transfer case, can-€™t use 4WD, ACC and FCW are not working. My car has only 41000 miles and I am reading about many, many others having the same problem. Jeep should recall this problem!! Thank you

I noticed a clanking noise when backing out of my drive. Dealership reported that they have had this issue a couple of times. The nut holding the drive shaft and transmission together backed off and has damaged the drive shaft, yoke, and flange causing the drive shaft to move around this the clanking noise I-€™ve been hearing. My vehicle has been in the shop for 4 months know because they are unable to find the flange needed to complete the repairs. I have owned this vehicle less than a year and am being told that this has been turned over to Chrysler to handle now since the part is not manufactured anywhere.

The transfer case on this Jeep failed at just over 64,000 miles. As the service center tried to repair, they were unable to locate rebuilt/certified transfer cases due to high demand. A new transfer case was purchased. The core charge (fee to return old transfer case) for the service center was $1000 indicating to me that the old, failed transfer case is in high demand for rebuilds due to a common failing part. The failure of this part locks the vehicle in 4WD low. The cost of repair for me was over $2500.

My wife and kids almost got killed in this vehicle twice this week due tot The Can Bus electrical communication network stop working. It completely stopped on the highway while driving 70 mph and almost caused a multiple car accident. All the controller icons lighted up on the dash board and the car shifter and transmission stopped working. I towed it to the dealership and paid $700 for a new shifter. The next day the vehicle did the same thing. This is a dangerous situation that needs to be recalled ASAP. Someone is going to get killed driving one of these vehicles. I researched this problem and numerous reviews found on the same issue 2014-2022 all electric Can Bus operated drivetrains jeep. Please recall my 2017 Jeep before it kills my family and you will have a astronomical law suit on your hands. Mr. Tyrone Albert.

Oil cooler failure, causing oil to go into the coolant system and mix. Completely draining all oil from my engine and leaking from and unknow seal in the coolant system. At no time did my vehicle warn me of the issue. No check engine light, no overheating light and I drove my vehicle from home to work which is about 60 miles (salisbury, md to lewes, de). This left me stranded at work and unknow damage to my vehicle because of no "caution" lights. The leaking oil could have caused an engine fire with all the oil draining out and into the coolant system and over heating my engine.

I have a 2017 Jeep GC Limited with 55K miles that had the "Service Shifter" warning light come on. Vehicle ran fine no issues. Made appt. with local Jeep Dealership and drove the Jeep in yesterday (03/29/22). Ran just fine, I just wanted the light cause diagnosed and fixed. Dealership ran a diagnostic on it and informed me it needed an updated software flash. Conducted the Flash. NOW... the vehicle is inoperable without a complete Electronic Shift Module (ESM) replacement. They could not even reverse what they did so I could drive home. What they did was IRREVERSIBLE and I would have to leave the car there until they could find a NEW ESM and install it for $900! I had to take a Uber home and have no vehicle. This is not right for a vehicle with only 55K miles that was running just fine into the Jeep dealership. This is a very common problem on JEEP Cherokees. If ESM is known defective part by JEEP and is a Safety risk since many owners have the shifter lock up while driving the vehicle and cannot shift without shutting down the vehicle several times in the middle of traffic. Please help!

The vehicle had a complete shutdown while being driven. While driving on the highway, several dashboard warning lights began to appear. Within seconds afterwards, the headlights went out, along with the dashboard lights and radio. The vehicle became difficult to steer and then the vehicle lost all power, and could not be restarted. The vehicle was picked up from the dealership the day prior to this occurrence, and the PCM had just been replaced. The vehicle had been towed to the dealership just short of two weeks earlier, after it wouldn't start, having replaced the battery, and experiencing the passenger front window to randomly go down. This incident fortunately did not result in any crash or injury, however, it is only a matter of time if it isn't correctly diagnosed and fixed, as this problem results in an extremely hazardous condition.

I was driving on highway and the stop safely your car about to turn off popped up then my lights started flashing and the whole car shut down. I couldn't steer or brake so I had to shift into neutral and hope for the best. It scared me to death. My children were in the car. I just replaced the alternator, both batteries and had the vehicle reprogrammed and 2 days later that happened.

We were driving up I95 and our Jeep made a weird noise. We thought we had hit something, but we had not. When we tried to put the car into gear it would not and we could not drive it. Jeep does not have a recall of this vehicle, but doing a simple search online I have found multiple sites that note 2017 Jeeps having the same issues with transmission. This is a costly repair that should be covered by the company because it is a well known issue. Here are some of the articles I found with their web addresses: Jeep RecallIn the middle of 2020, Jeep was forced to recall almost 100,000 Jeep Cherokees due to transmission problems. Fiat Chrysler promised to install and update the new software into the specific model so that the malfunctions will not occur again -€" and if they do, the driver will immediately be alerted to the ongoing problem.The affected Cherokee cars had a transmission concern that could potentially lead to a loss of power while driving, causing an increased risk of a crash and safety issues. The company issued a statement at the time of the recall, addressing the potential transmission slipping, loss of propulsion, and lack of transmission engagement.The Jeep Cherokees in the recall were produced between the 2014 and 2017 model years, with the affected models having an extremely high Jeep transmission repair cost and safety concerns. The models are almost exclusively all-wheel-drive options between 2014-2-17, with a two-speed Power Transfer Unit. https://www.cashcarsbuyer.com/jeep-transmission-repair-cost/ While the 2015 transmission receives a lot of notice, there are other vehicles in the Jeep Grand Cherokee lineup that have also had problems reported by consumers. One key complaint is repeated in the 2016 and 2017 model years.In these vehicles, the driver notes the vehicle lurches forward when the gas pedal is depressed, specifically when making a turn. This can increase the risk of an accident.Others report that while they are driving the vehicle

The check engine light and a (A)! light with "service auto/start stop" came on at the same time with no symptom of any issue being immediately noticeable. The Parking break "BRAKE" light on the dash light up for half a second. Then the transmission was stuck in 7th gear and would not downshift on its own. When pulling on the wheel's paddles a "shift denied" message was deplayed despite the fact i was going 10mph in 7th gear. Check engine light code was P076F and U0001 and U1199. Upon driving the vehicle again Car this time transmission got into 8th gear and stated "shift denied" and wouldn't downshift from 8th gear for any reason. I parked it for a couple days. When trying to take it to the dealership (A)! came back on about 5 min into my drive and stayed on for the remaining 25 min. Fault Log as of showing P076F (though car shifted fine through all gears except for that one day), U0001, P00FD, U0447, U1199, P02D1. The following things happened on the drive to the dealership 1) While driving the phrase "Service Shifter" showed up for less than 1 second and went away. 2) Then randomly the gauge clusters parking "BRAKE" light turn 3) The vehicle got stick in 3rd gear. The dealership provided a flash update to the transmission stating it was a "known issue" which is why there was already a software update, but this costed me over $200 to pay for a known issue that necessitate going to a dealership as the only way to get the known software update uploaded. It happened again 3 weeks already which almost resulted in a crash due to the vehicle being stuck in 7th gear even at low speeds (less than 10 MPH). The dealership "Roger Williams Jeep in Weatherford Texas" looked at it again and stated. They did't know what the problem was and that Jeep does not allow them to service the transmissions and they cannot explain any of the lights and sticking on other gears but the "service manual and jeep" would only allow a replacement of the transmission for $8,100.
