Randomly an audible alarm sounds and the dash indicates "Service Shifter" while the digital dashboard indicators do not allow to navigate away from that notice, and all of the lights on the transmission indicators illuminate. I called the dealer and they said they were aware of issues with that, but no recall exists. I Googled the "Service Shifter" and my model vehicle and apparently it's a larger problem than the Dealer indicated on the phone. I was advised to turn the vehicle off, open the door, close the door, and restart the vehicle. The error cleared but later intermittently reappears.

Our 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk is being recalled for transmission and power lift gate. These parts cannot be fixed because the parts are not avaiable. Also they updated the navigation and UCONNECT and vehicles 2015-2018 are not eligible for the update. They changed from 3G to 4G. And our Jeep is not qualified. We went to another car dealer and were told because of the recalls which they have many on their lot, we were offered only 7000 dollars for trade. Because of the recalls, we need to get another vehicle.

I received an error message on the dash that the PTU failed which is a common failure on this Jeep. Mine was diagnosed by a local dealership. They informed me that the PTU ws determined to be ok, and the Transmission Control Module was actually at fault. After waiting for the part, which wasn't available due to the Stellantis strike. When I was waiting for the parts to come in, the dealer said I could drive the Jeep since it was electronic part failure and as long as I didn't engage the 4-wh. dr. to power the rear wheels, it would be ok to drive. When the TCM was received, I dropped the Jeep off for service. The part was replaced, error cleared, and test driven by the technician. The error message immediately returned. At this point, the technician decided to do a visual inspection of the drivetrain. He found the rear differential cracked all the way around, and all fluids had leaked out. If the rear differential had locked up or CV snapped off due to lack of lubrication, it could have caused a serious, possibly deadly accident. I feel the technician should have performed a complete inspection of the driveline first, before trusting the computer to correctly diagnose the problem. After talking to other Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk owners, it appears they had similar situations with the rear differential splitting open much too often for a front wheel drive midsize SUV.

The transmission 'locks' into neutral while at a light or stop or when trying to reverse. You must put the vehicle in to Park to reset the transmission. The engine will rev with the transmission 'locked' in a neutral state. Note: the vehicle was not moved into neutral. You are actively in drive or revs when it almost slips into the neutral state. The gear shift still shows in drive or revs, but the transmission is not engaged.

While driving moderately at about 45 miles per hour I heard a clunk in the drivetrain and the vehicle would no longer propel itself and I was in the middle lane in traffic during rush hour. I nearly got hit three times attempting to get out of the middle lane. Once I got to the right lane I managed to coast up a driveway and coast backwards into a parking spot. My spouse is handicapped and the reason I keep a very good vehicle to transport her for Medical Appointments, especially. I contend that Jeep, Chrysler, Daimler, Fiat and all the others involved in the reason for this recall, knowingly and without regard for safety of their consumers assembled the transmission with the defectively machined transfer case for MONETARY reasons. I want my car repaired as a defective vehicle under the LEMON LAW act.
