Since purchasing 2015 Jeep Cherokee it has been more at the dealers than my home. It has been a nightmare, problems with transmission, sensors, and radio etc. It has been replaced numerous times for substantial defects and it continues to do so. This falls under the lemon law. It's getting to the point I am seeking an attorney, if my warranty is not extended and this is not fix at no charge to me. Last night the Jeep stop in the middle of the freeway almost caused an accident with warnings of (shift to P then desired gear) and service airbag system. This is my life you are playing with, for you're on going defects. I am a loyal Jeep customer. I have a Jeep Wrangler, Jeep compass and sebring Chrysler. All I am asking is for my piece of mind and not worry about paying for anything when I have a defected and it's not safe to drive. Please respond and solved this problem asap. Thanks again and have a bless day.

When I am driving on the street I always feel a jerking when I accelerate after braking. While driving on the highway or expressway when I accelerate I notice a jerk and when I decelerate my car shakes and vibrates.

During normal operation the vehicle will shift very hard at initial engagement of the power train and sometimes after reaching 4th or 5th gear. The vehicle lunges forward very hard. The some times cause a major whiplash action on the passenger. Sitting at a light the power train will nock hard when engaging the gears, also after reaching about 10mph it seems to miss a gear.

Driving 55 on rural highway, transmission message appears. Car would not downshift or up shift. Pulled into a driveway and turned the car off. Issue seemed to go away and get me to my destination. Upon my return trip issue also returned 4 more times. This is a huge safety risk, had this happened while turning on some of our roads it could easily cause a very bad accident. Car has had issues before with service shift messages, as well and a slew of other issues documented by the dealer. All to do with powertrain.

We bought a 2015 Jeep Cherokee in 2016 and without being told of the issues with the transmissions issues. We have had our Jeep in the shop four times with transmissions issues of shifting hard and now going into neutral when in drive and the brakes going hard and the Jeep coming to a stop. The anit slide has now came on and the Jeep shakes. The updates came one day when I was getting onto the highway going 65 mph and the Jeep went to 30 mph with my grandkids in the car and two disels one behind me blowing the horn because he almost hit me and one to the side of me. My husband was coming home from a dr visit again the Jeep went into a neutral state while in the drive position and the Jeep stopped and he was almost hit then the Jeep jerked and went into gear so he went into a shopping center and had to stop and kill the Jeep and restart the Jeep to make the Jeep restart just to get it home. It went back to the shop that night! we have had the Jeep in the shop for hard shifting when taking off and now it is hard shifting when taking off and down shifting, anti slide randomly comes on, brakes are not properly stopping the car. Go to the dealer where we bought it and they only offered $7500 for it when we owe $15, 000 and this is so ridiculous. Called Jeep and awaiting a call, they stated they have to call the dealer. In the mean time I had to buy another car because ours is to unsafe to drive! the Jeep is sticking in gear and the tac meter is staying on 3 or 4. then when you turn the Jeep off and turn it back on it may or may not work. We have backed it out of our driveway and put into drive and it shifts so hard into first and second gear. Now since the last time we picked it up from the shop the Jeep has now started loosing power when you attempt to drive. We have parked the Jeep and decided it isn't safe!

3-4 months after purchasing my 2015 Jeep Cherokee sport I got a "service shifter soon" message and all the lights on the gear shift lit up. I had the car towed to a dealer and they "fixed" the problem under warranty. Now, out of warranty, the same message and lighting of the gear shift lights is happening again. It usually happens right after starting but has happened while driving a couple of times.

- Los Angeles, CA, USA

Automatic start/stop system doesn't always engage. The transmission stays in 3rd gear after coming to a stop at a stop sign or traffic light and the car has high revolutions and jerks unit it down shifts to 1st gear when the gas pedal is pressed. Causing hesitation in engine and putting me and my family in close calls for accidents.

- New Columbia, PA, USA

While driving a message came up on the dash "service shifter" while driving in town. The prnd lights are all red. I could not get the message to go away.

- Ainsworth, IA, USA

I have the service shifter light coming on regularly. It started this spring and has continued to get worse. I have contacted Jeep and they won't answer any questions for me. They simply say to take it to the dealership. I have read a lot of forums and see that dealerships don't know how to fix the issue, they simply replace parts until the issue goes away. The problem then comes back on again several months later. One instance they changed the same parts three times. When is Jeep going to step up and own the problem? ridiculous that a company won't stand behind a $35,000 vehicle.

Service shifter message appears on dashboard. Took car to Jeep dealer for service. Advises there is a service bulletin out on this issue but no recall yet. Tsb 08-054-18 rev a issued Sept 2018. Remedy is to replace the shifter bezel display and shifter wiring harness. Dealer advised that this would not be covered under the 5 year powertrain warranty. They said the shifter is not part of the powertrain " my car is 4 years old and the bumper to bumper ended at 3 years. They expect me to pay for these repairs myself. Car only has 39,000 miles on it. How can this not be part of the powertrain " it controls the transmission. Repair cost approx $530 dealer still has my car. They advise parts are on back order and it would be 3 weeks before they came in. They advise car is not safe to drive and I would need to rent a car. For 3 weeks+. this would cost me several hundred dollars. I have read this is a common issue with Jeep Cherokee from 2014 to 2018 with the 9 speed automatic transmission. Many people have already filed complaints with ntsb and are wanting a recall issued. Please investigate this and issue recall. Also please investigate how fca (Fiat Chrysler) can classify the shifter as not being part of the powertrain. That is a real stretch so they don't have to pay for the work on cars over 3 years old. Thank you, .

The vehicle (2015 Jeep Cherokee limited) self accelerated while in a parking lot and nearly caused an accident. In addition, at times the vehicle has a problem shifting when accelerating (sluggish/hesitant) around 30-40 mph and then abruptly drops into gear, jarring the vehicle while in motion. At times, while accelerating, the transmission seems to delay and then abruptly drops into gear. We do not feel safe in this Jeep after the the sudden unintended acceleration. We have brought the vehicle into the Jeep dealership for inspection multiple times to check the sluggish/hesitant/hard gear shifting and all that I am told is that they cannot replicate the problem. I shared with the dealership that this issue only happens from time to time and it is unlikely a mechanic driving the car for 10-15 mins will be luckily enough to experience this oddity, which is exactly what happened. So basically I am being told there is nothing wrong with the vehicle, as far as they can tell. They did update the shareware, but the issue continues and with the sudden acceleration, the safety of my family is my main concern.

April, 2019: Every thing on the dash lit up. Car started to roll and we had to jump out of the car to stop it. It wouldn't go into park, but parking brake worked for a while. Car wouldn't turn off, locks wouldn't work. Nothing worked. Towed to dealer with Jeep on the whole way. A 18 month old child was with us. Dangerous. Repair did a tcm fix and said this was a catastrophic event that would not happen again. October 2, 2019. Pushed the start button ' car started but couldn't push down on brake. Couldn't move out of park. Would turn it off and it would turn right back on. Had it towed to dealer - have not heard back. In addition have had transmission issues for last two years. Car lurches when going around 30 mph, stalls a bit when just starting out driving from a stopped position

For the last few months, my Jeep jumps ahead at red light or when you put it in drive. Its like someone else is stepping on the gas pedal. Sometimes it delays to launch, when you step on the gas it takes 10 or 15 seconds. And most importantly, the computer disengages the transmission and the engine will only idle in drive, cars following G are forced to drive around the vehicle. I was told by Jeep today, my VIN number is not in the VIN associated mass recall for the transmission issue and I have found, hundreds of the same issues on 2014 and 2015 9 speed transmissions. The vehicle is not safe and is a hazard to other motorist, due to Jeep design issue and lack of ownership and responsibility. My Jeep has 62,048 miles on it.

Transmission is dropping to neutral while driving. This has started to happen multiple times and it is becoming a concern.

- Phoenix, MD, USA

When I am stopped and I press the gas to accelerate, it takes a few seconds for my Jeep to go. This does not happen all the time, but does happen often. It is frustrating!!
