Grand Cherokee

  • 210 miles
The contact owns a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that whenever the heat or a/c was turned on, the cabin filter would release an unknown black substance into the air, causing his eyes to burn. The objects in the glove box were covered in an unknown black substance. The contact was concerned that the unknown substance could cause cancer and other health issues to himself and his passengers. The vehicle was taken to the dealer but the dealer informed the contact that there was nothing they could do and referred the contact to the manufacturer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The manufacturer also referred the contact to another dealer Golling Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Roseville (25800 Gratiot Ave, Roseville, MI 48066) and sent a new glove box for replacement. However, the service manager of Jeep Ram of Roseville (25800 Gratiot Ave, Roseville, MI 48066) informed the contact that all 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, were manufactured that way. The glove box was not replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 210.

Grand Cherokee

  • 121 miles
I was driving my new Grand Cherokee with 121 miles on the odometer. As I was moving forward with the vehicle in drive and was attempting to turn around to- re-enter a highway the engine stopped. I immediately put the vehicle in park and attempted to restart the vehicle numerous times with no luck. The vehicle was stuck in park with the wheels turned to the left. The rest of the electronics worked but the the vehicle locked in park it could not be moved. This represents an extreme hazard to the motoring public as if I had gone 10 feet further and the engine stalled I would have been in the middle of a busy highway. This is totally unacceptable engineering by Jeep. Two towing companies attempted to unlock this vehicle from park with no success. Very hazardous and disappointing work by Chrysler.
