This problem has occurred at least 4 times in a 2 week period. While driving on service streets a pinging noises goes off..the battery light a lightening bolt and shift into drive appears and lasts a few seconds. The steering wheel gets very heavy and hard to turn. The vehicle turns off! the radio continues to play. I cannot shift into park. When I try to turn the ignition it makes a screeching noise..after the second attempt it usually will restart. This is very dangerous and I am afraid to get behind the wheel of my car!

It began with the check engine light staying on even after oil changes, then when I would turn on the ignition key it would make a tap tap sound as though it didnt have any power, or while I would be at a complete stop while at a light it would sound as though the Jeep was losing power and was going to turn off, then it did turn off on me when the light turned green. I had the battery checked by a friend he said it was reading that it has power and that the alternator is good also, then finally it left me stranded at wt work, it wouldn't turn on. I have no one to help me so I took a chance and asked a stranger to please check my car, he gave me a boost, it took 2 min to get my Jeep going again..this morning at 4:30 am I wasnt able to go to work my Jeep wouldn't turn on..so my neighbor took my to auto parts to buy a new battery, my Jeep is 2 years old..I'm a single 52 year old female, I cant afford to be stranded or unable to get to work.

At 9000 miles the "service shifter" light came on and took to dealer as a mechanic told me do not put in park. At 40,000 miles it came on again and was told the tcm had a recall, ,and if it happened again bring back about 3 weeks later it came on again and is still in shop. Now I am worried after a mechanic told me it can lock up the transmission and cause the vehicle to crash, ,, I dont feel safe driving the vehicle any lonker, , and am worried for my self and family.

Was getting a "service shifter" message on dash and brought to dealership whom replaced the shifter mechanism under warranty on July 11, 2018 at 37,891 miles. The dealership stated that it was our fault for leaving a cup in the cup holder which can short out the shifter mechanism (seems like a bad design if you cannot use a cup holder) now the problem has come up again on December 21, 2018 with 54,230 miles, making this component out of warranty. A cup was never left in the cup holder and was only used when someone was in the car. I really do not want to pay for a shifter every 6 months as long as I own the vehicle. This seems to be a common problem with this system and due to the nature of it being tied to the transmission of the car, it seems like a very high safety concern. The first time it started happening, it occurred from shifting from reverse to drive and the car had to be turned off and then on to operate. This issue became worse as time went on. This latest occurrence happened when putting the vehicle into drive before driving. Turned off car and turned back on and it did not display the error message. I am sure this will occur more frequently as the days pass since I am writing this at the time of failure.

When I got in my car yesterday morning, my drivers seat was all the way back. I am the only one who drives it - it was odd that it was moved. Nevertheless, I needed it to go back into position so I could drive it. The controls weren't really working so it took a bit to get it to move forward. I noted it to mention to the dealer when I take it in for an oil change this weekend. I drove to work, uneventfully. As I left work, and got into my Jeep, the seat was fine. Yay! I headed home. I was pouring rain. As I took a right, heard the car go "ding" saw the battery light come on and then the Jeep turned off. I was driving and my car just turned off. This is the second time it has happened to me. The last time was January 2018 as I was entering I95. I turned left and heard the "ding" and off the Jeep went. I had to coast to the side of the road. Dangerous! I got towed to the local Jeep dealer by aaa and left the car for diagnostic testing. The results, according to the dealer, was that my oil was low. The Cherokee turns off the car to preserve the engine. Even if you are driving the car on the highway. Just. Turns. Off. First of all, that should not happen no matter what. The human in the car is what should be preserved, not the car itself. No car should ever just turn off. Second of all, there was no indication on the dash or on the uconnect app that I was low on oil. And secondly, I was only a 300 miles over the mileage on the oil sticker on my windshield. I have had a lot of cars in my life and even the really old cars would indicate if the oil was low. This is a brand new car. Why would I think the dealership would put mileage on the oil change sticker that was wrong" why would I even think that I would need to check my oil levels on a new car? and one more thing - Jeep are built tough. So why would the engine be that sensitive" so angry.

My 2017 Jeep wouldn't start on September 22,23 2018 while parked in driveway. It made a sound like the battery was dead and didn't have enough juice to start. After attempting to start multiple times and trying to turn off radio and headlight. It finally turned over, but after returning home from running errands, the following morning on the 23rd it wouldn't not start until I received a jump. There was a P code on the dashboard of car. Ive also experience issue with it not wanting to excellerate even with excessive amount of pressure to the gas peddle.
