Stopped car at red light. Car died. Totally. Engine cut out. Brakes failed, no steering. Tried to restart multiple times. Luckily light was on a decline. Ended up putting it in N and drifting through intersection and into parking lot. Again, no steering, no brakes. Very frightening. When turning key initially after stall, lights on instrument panel lit up but no engine start. By the time I got into the lot, not even lights. Totally dead. Had it towed to dealer. No idea what's wrong. VIN says no unrepaired recalls but this sounds an awful lot like the " engine stall" recall for 2.4L engines. Bought used with 5k miles. Wondering now if this issue was previously " fixed" and is recurring, if it can be permanently fixed or is an unsafe vehicle. I'm [XXX] and transport 2 grandchildren under 8.

Vehicle would randomly not start. Initially, it was several months between episodes. Would not jump-start so I would have it towed to a service center / dealership. Once off the tow truck it would start right up. Diagnosis would not find anything and all systems checked out. After several episodes, I decided to leave it at Jeep dealership so they could troubleshoot. They opened case with Jeep but after several weeks, could not replicate the issue. I spent several hundred dollars between diagnosis and towing costs. A simple google search revealed that it wasn't just me having this exact issue with several Jeep vehicles, and even this same model. Tried to get jeep to buy vehicle back but they denied. They sent me to arbitration and they also denied my case. The vehicle again wouldn't start and sat in my yard for 2 weeks, however, all of the Jeep dealerships within 50 miles of my home were "behind/full" and couldn't get to me for several weeks. I threw money at it and replaced the starter. The vehicle started back up and I sold it. It was the most frustrating experience ever and I felt that it's a known issue with Jeep and they refuse to recall/fix. They were willing to pay for some of my costs as long as a Jeep dealership did the repairs. Sounds like an admission of guilt to me.

The auto stop start feature is causing the car to stall out and shut off during a complete stop. The car check engine, light and auto start lights turn on. Then the car starts shaking and vibrating. It-??s very unsafe to drive vehicle!

Driving on the highway fortunately about 20 MPH and the jeep Cherokee limited died while moving. Could not restart it and had to get towed off the highway. Jeep dealer said it was because of a dead battery that could not hold a charge. Never in 4 years had a problem. Not sure why a dead battery would cause the jeep to shut down completely while moving. Battery replaced and now the radio is dead according to the dealer. Have not picked the jeep up yet

While sitting in a parking lot waiting for my children after school my vehicle went from running to dead. No warning lights just dead. As this had previously happened to me I found someone to jump may car and it started right up. It is as if the battery just dies and the car shuts off but nothing works. BUT when I had the battery checked it was found to be in good working order.

- Casselberry, FL, USA

While stopped at a stop light the car just died, no warning lights. It just went from running to dead. I was blocking a lane of traffic and could not put the car in neutral as nothing was working. I had to call for police assistance due to traffic and being in a vulnerable position, he was able to manually put the car in neutral and push me onto the grassy median to wait for a tow truck. After I had my car towed home I was able to jump start it with jumper cables.

This is my second complaint regarding a Jeep and this time about a 2019 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 Limited, I turned in a complaint re: 2019 Jeep Compass as they both have the same problem. The stop/start system has drained the secondary battery, in turn draining the car battery, in turning almost killing the alternator, The failure left me in the middle of a busy intersection with no possible way to restart the car. It could easily have gotten me killed. There was no warning, no light, no nothing. There is an extreme failure in this system and I want to know why the mechanics for Jeep do not tell you that the secondary battery is a problem and will be again as it isn't changed out when the car battery is replaced. (the demise of which is a result of the failure of the secondary) t is a n unnecessary and a lousy one,

The issue is prevalent in previous model years as well, PTU failure with associated SVC 4WD light, 4wd unavailable message, and grinding sound as the PTU splines self destruct. At the time of incident, was doing approximately 30 mph, rpms revved up, but felt powertrain lose power, rpms lowerd, transmission made a thud noise, vehicle lost power, then regained power with grinding noise. Took vehicle to local auto shop, ptu is not accepting commands, and is faulted.

While approaching a traffic light, the jeep just stalled. After trying to restart, the vehicle had no success proceeded to use key for automatic start and system rebooted and was able to start. This was the second time it happened within a month the first time was also at a traffic light, the car just shut off there were no lights indicating there was any issue. Had taken it to an auto mechanic to run a diagnostic and there were no codes in the system. The second incident was yesterday 618 2023 and finally, the engine light has come on Went to an auto parts store had them run a diagnostic and the code was U11C2. The code had shown possible issues may be with the TCM faulty transmission control module, or the PCM. The powertrain control module was faulty. Other possibilities were circuit was poor electrical connection or harness is open or short it. Again, all pertaining to the transmission control module or powertrain control module.

The auxiliary battery doesn-??t not work properly in the vehicle. The car has turned completely off or with the emergency break light on several times while driving when I come to a complete stop. This is a huge safety concern. This is my second battery and the dealership is saying it needs to be replaced. I purchased a brand new one last year.

- Tampa , FL, USA

As I was turning at an intersection, my battery light quickly flashed and the car stalled. This has happened 3 times in the past week. This is an obvious safety risk as the car would not move until I restarted it. I have read multiple issues of this occurring recently to other models of Jeep Cherokees

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

When I stop at a red light the engine goes silent, like it should, but three time in the past few weeks the car has completely died and not restarted as it was supposed to.
