It is well known on Jeep Cherokees from 2014 forward use plastic oil filter housings instead of metal. Plastic part in this heated area causes failure and leakage of oil into exhaust manifold. This problem is so prevalent that all Jeep dealers and other repair shops know that Chrysler Jeep Dodge can-??t even keep up the demand for the part replacement, AND still they do not make it out of metal. This problem is well known and costs $ 1000 - 1300 to repair. Why is NHTSA not forcing Jeep to recall all the Jeeps with problems and replace the oil filter housing with a metal product !! This is abuse to loyal Jeep owners, with a known problem which all participants are aware of, but no one is holding Jeep accountable !

After filling up the gas tank the engine stalls at stop light. I must quickly place car in park and restart the engine. This happens multiple times as I drive home. Then as I start driving again the engine seems to be hesitant and feels like it is "bucking" me. After the first time this happened it seemed to go away after fuel level in tank went down. When I filled the tank again the problem reappeared. This has happened twice to me. This is really a life threatening hazard.

I was driving on the highway and all of a sudden my car wanted me to shift into P to park while i was still in drive. My vehicle was hit passenger side as well in a hit and run incident. I pulled over and waited awhile and called the police then brought my vehicle home because it was not totaled. I tried to get coverage from my GEICO insurance but they were unable to help. Then February i was in a rear end collision from another gentleman on the way home from work. My vehicle was being repaired for a month and some change until i got it back. At first I thought it was the battery or alternator going bad, but a diagnostic test showed normal for both. I-??ve tried different gas thinking it could be bad gasoline. When the vehicle shuts down it-??s difficult to get it to restart. Now it is saying service 4WD which i believe is something with the transfer case because its not the axels or differentials which I had replaced from Jeff D Ambrosia. Looking for assistance to get my vehicle driving safe and possible reimbursement or help, I have all my receipts from what has been done to my vehicle since I first bought it in 06/20/20 For my birthday present. There is a lot of more information that i want an advisor or assistance to know as far as what i have already paid out of my own pocket with dates and receipts (battery, axels, rear diffs, alternator, etc) and try to diagnose it from there. I know about the mechanisms myself and my buddy who is an authorized mechanic. I am sure that after hearing all the difficulties and safety issues i have had i may be able to get some serious help and even possibly with my right side of my vehicle ! Thanks

Acceleration and emergency brake when I put on the brakes the car accelerates and trying to get on expressway its a long time before the car can go full potential. The emergency brake comes on unexpected. I dont fell safe when emergency brake comes on at any givin time. If I brake after I let go of brake car accelerates and going on a curve is the same and its very scary. I took to dealer for recall and they updated nodule for gears I went back and they did update on transmission nodule. Got the car back 2 days ago the first day it started again on acceleration after braking. The 3rd day engine light came on. How can they sell a Jeep like this my life is valuable and I dont feel safe. I dont try my car far scared if I get in to an accident and I only had this car for 6months been going back and forth literally everyday to fix the issue and noone is doing anything. Please do something. It has been inspected 4 times and they cant find what the problem is. No warning till 4 months after purchase then engine light was coming on and off.

One day while we were driving, shifting became very slow and harsh. A few miles later, vehical slowed down enormously out of nowhere, and service brakes and transmission lights came on. No 4wd, no traction control available etc. Gigantic safety hazard, especially. With no prior indications or warnings.

Car stalls out after fueling

- Columbia , SC, USA

When the fuel tank is filled, to the first click off of the pump. The vehicle will stall, sputter, and is hard to accurate. The dealer has all ready replaced the fuel tank, evap line, and a puger valve, but still has the same problems. I have almost getting rear ended when it stalls a couple of times. Still has been going on for 2+ year. Vehicle drives fine after 30ish miles after filling it up.

Leaving to go get Wife's computer today my Jeep ran terrible, kept trying to stall I just filled up at Costco to top off the tank yesterday. In the next subdivision after passing through the back gate the transmission "D" light started blinking. Pressing the gas pedal at 15 miles an hour did nothing. No forward acceleration nor any acceleration at all. Just coasted to pull over where I could safely as the Jeep coasted powerless. Pressing the gas peddle barely raised RPMs like a throttle car would have done. I had to stop the Jeep put it in park and then put it back in "D" drive and it at least my jeep moved forward when pressing the gas peddle. As I continued to drive out through the subdivision towards a main street, the transmission kept clunking and thumping. Felt like the transmission was loose and dangling under the Jeep, but it is still securely bolted to the Jeep. I decided to go back get Wife's car and drop the stupid Jeep off at the dealer again to find out what's wrong with it. At least if it broke down on the side of the road I could run our errands. This constant problem is a major safety concern. If this happens on the interstate it can easily cause a major crash. The dealer can't figure out what is wrong, or so they claim. This happens every couple of months. I don't trust Jeep to keep me safe while driving. This needs to be investigated so owners know the truth.

OME Oil Filter Housing is made of plastic and it cracked, causing the Jeep to leak oil. This is a common issue with the 3.2L and 3.6L jeep motors. So common that the original part has been discontinued and replaced with one made of metal. That fact that Jeep has discontinued the original part and replaced it with a better one should be grounds for a recall and be covered my Jeep. Instead I have to pay $200 for the part and because of the labor required to replace the part, my total bill is almost $1000.

Engine stalls without warning. One occurrence stalled while in reverse, steering wheel jerked 3 times. After every stall has had the warning "Four wheel drive temporarily unavailable". Also had one that flashed "ECU Off" this has occurred mostly at low speeds. Happened twice today making it the sixth and seventh occasion.

As I pulled up to a stop light the transmission light blinked and the car started to stall. Sputtered for a second then went away. About 3 min after as I was pulling in front of vehicles when I turned the car stalled and died in traffic. Car wouldn-??t restart for almost 30 sec but in traffics felt like a lifetime. Finally started and was able to pull off road but as I sat there car just would seem like the transmission was catching and stall out.

Oil filter housing is leaking oil onto the engine and dripping on the ground leaving puddles. This is a problem with the 3.2 engine and the 3.6 engine. There are thousands of these engines on the road doing the same thing. Oil Filter Housing Defective.

PTU failed at 20,000 miles (vehicle is driven only a few thousand miles per year). Had PTU replaced by dealer (at full dealer charges), but the problem persists and dealer now wants to replace the differential. This appears to be the exact problem meant to be covered by the 2018 (not certain of date ?) warranty extension to 8yrs/150,000, which assessment was confirmed by an independent repair shop. However the vehicle was manufactured a few months prior to the 2014 starting date of such extension and Jeep/Chrysler refuses to cover it. Because the vehicle is outside the covered period, I never received the warranty extension notice and have only just learned about the extension.

The oil filter adapter has cracked due to it being a plastic housing. Cold weather speeds up the process. The oil filter adapter also has a small torque tolerance for the cap that will also break the housing. This is available for inspection upon request. The safety concern is that the oil leaks out on top of the motor then down the sides and onto the exhaust below causing emission tests to fail. My dealer mentioned this is common but nothing official. The component has not been inspected by police or insurance. The dash indicators don-??t come on till enough oil leaks out to display low oil level.

I had purchased this 2014 jeep in the summer of 2021, which for the first many months was in the dealership repair shop longer than what I had it in my possession. After my purchase this vehicle immediately started having very strong jerking when hitting the exploratory, and even when attempting to hold a speed. These strong jerks were so strong it would cause your body to jolt forward. The dealership finally threw up their arms and said this was typical of the jeeps, and ignoring the danger. This vehicle has now been sitting in my driveway unable to start for over a month now, and was finally towed to another repair shop, just to learn that the starter is shot and needed to be replaced costing over $600 dollars. This vehicle is most definitely a dangerous lemon that it appears that I am stuck with.

This vehicle has a known issue that has been ongoing for years. If the gas tank is filled (but not topped off) the car will stall when you begin driving when it sits idle at a traffic light or stop sign during the first 30 minutes of use until some gas burns off. When this car was purchased used in Dec 2017 it happened immediately after the first full tank. When idling or right as you step on the gas the car starts -??puttering-?? and stalls. A message states something like -??put car in park and restart-??. The only way to restart the car is to put it in park, turn it off completely, and restart it. The when you try to go again, it might stall or it might not. This can happen over and over again. When we determined what was the cause we got in the habit of not filling the tank completely, but sometimes you forget. Then as you start driving, it stalls-??multiple times. This is an extremely dangerous situation to be in when the car stalls in the middle of an intersection and will likely end up causing a fatal accident. During a recent recall appointment at Jeep service department, the car stalled as I was pulling into the service department parking lot, so they first hand experienced the issue-??in fact the service advisor had trouble starting the car. Jeep service called me later and told me there was an existing -??Star Case-?? with Jeep corporate. Case number S1814000002. This symptom in the document are exactly what I am experiencing. The suggested repair to is replace the fuel pump, fuel pump -??O-?? ring, and the Evaporative Charcoal canister totaling about $1400. If you google -??jeep S1814000002-?? you will find dozens and dozens of other complaints about the same issue, and not just for the Cherokee, it is other Jeeps as well. While this is a known issue, Jeep refuses to fix or issue a recall on this extremely dangerous safety issue.
