Grand Cherokee 6-cyl

  • 84,000 miles
On three separate occasions, vehicle check engine light went on/off within a matter of seconds. The first time was approximately one week prior to the most current two occurrences which happened about 30mins-1 hour apart. Vehicle was taken to the dealership and they advised that the system had recorded no error codes and were unable to determine what if anything caused the check engine light to illuminate.

Grand Cherokee 8-cyl

Vehicle shifted from neutral and accelerated striking the side of the garage. Parking brakes would not engage, causing significant damage to the vehicle and garage. Air bags did not deploy. I believe this accident was caused by a pending Jeep recall. NHTSA's # 13V175000.

problem #1

Aug 222010

Grand Cherokee

  • 3,000 miles
The remote start and door unlock key may (or may not) work when activated the first time for a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Takes several tries for the doors to unlock. Failure of this remote is random and inconsistent. No action to date with the dealer due to random part failure.
