Jeep Cherokee eats engine oil too quickly. On my 3rd oil change in less than 10 months less than 2500 miles difference. Car does not let you know when the vehicle has no more oil it will stall with no warning.

My 2019 is about to have it's 3rd oil change, apparently it's supposed to go every 3,000 miles to get an oil change. When I called the dealership the guy that's in services didn't care of my concern regarding the Cherokee turning off while driving during traffic especially in the freeways, all he kept saying yup yup yup. He kept telling me he has a paper stating that Jeep Cherokee new models are built like that now. All he offered was to do an oil consumption test which I have to make an appt for and go every 1,000 miles to get it read. I mentioned that the compass has the same type engine, however, with the compass I would go 5,000 miles or more. I cannot continue to pay for a car that puts me and my family at risk for accident. My car turns off completely all the lights on the dash board turns on before turning off and states it's the battery when it's not the battery. Why hasnt this been recalled or fix my Chrysler or Fiat! the first time it happened was around christmas time then 3 months later. I had to get my first oil change before the 3 months of getting it.

While just beginning to exit a freeway, my steering locked up completely. I had no control but recall seeing a red light just coming on the dash (obviously, I couldn't ascertain what they light was at the time as my car was doing multiple 360 spins down the exit ramp!) try as I might, I could not turn the steering wheel. This is one of the most terrifying moments of my life. After coming to rest against a traffic sign, I was able to see that it was an alert for my steering that had come on. It remained on even as I had the car towed to the dealer for inspection. I have experienced multiple injuries to my head, back, legs, wrist, hips, shoulder and hip. This is a most egregious failure and I am quite understandably reticent to trust any vehicle with this component. After 1 week, silence is the only sound I have heard from either the dealer or Chrysler/Jeep. This silence is most disturbing. No help for a rental or loaner, and as an investigation is ongoing, even my own auto insurance is not providing any support for the vehicle, but thankfully has stepped up to help with the medical bills. Manufacturer offered to fix the steering.

Right after leases the new car, drive down to highway engine light on staring wheel not moving, stop the car side of highway, tow the car to other Jeep dealer, day after they called its working but didn't know what is problem. Talk to original dealers to ask change other new one but they dined.

On December 29th at about 5pm, I was traveling South at 40mph on Plymouth sorrento rd in orange county fl.as I was driving, I heard a ding (1 ding almost as if my seat belt wants buckled, but it was) and at that time, my Jeep shut down in travel. The first thing I noticed was the radio shut off and all the gauges, as I went to correct my steering, to get back in the center of my lane, I realized I had no steering capabilities, the steering wheel was locked. When I realized what had happened, I began to slow and the car came back on. This all took place in about 5 seconds. When I got my head straight and started back home, I noticed that the radio, control panel/gauges and A/C would not function properly. I could not change channel, turn air off, couldn't change volume or nothing. About twenty minutes later I arrived at my house and shut the car down. The radio continued to play. I had to start and shut the Jeep down three time in order for the equipment to shut down. I called napleton Jeep of clermont to come tow the Jeep in and I called chrylser Corp to notify them of the major safety hazard this was and problems this could have caused. Searching the same year and model Jeep on the internet, it appears this is a pretty common thing, . I explained it to one of the Chrysler Corp managers and he said it didn't matter how many vehicles this happened to, there is no problem. Chrysler had the napleton dealer drive the car for about 90 miles over a week period and never had a problem. At that time I got a call from Chrysler and napleton, stating I can pick my Jeep up, there is nothing wrong. The Jeep had about 2000 miles on it when this happened. We have had the Jeep about 40 days when this happened, and because Chrysler couldn't recreate the issues, they have just washed their hands of the problem.

This reports documents a second instance of power failure. On Friday, Jan 4 faii was driving on interstate hwy 287. The dashboard went dark at first and then started flickering. Car then stalled while driving. The gas pedal no longer worked. The power steering failed. I coasted to the shoulder. When in park the dashboard came back on with battery, engine light, and P with circle and exclamation mark. A message came on display to service transmission. I had to be towed to the car dealership. At the dealership I was told the repair work wouldn't start until Monday. On Monday afternoon, I was told the battery connection was poor and they ordered a part. I also received a recall email that states the transmission needs to be fixed. I feel this vehicle is life threatening at this point. Many Cherokee have received 5 recalls and I only have one. Please look into the Cherokee limited 4 X 4.

Steering will get very tight when going above 60 mph. It feels as if the power steering has been shut off. I have also noticed that it locks and if you move the steering wheel a little bit it clicks. To go along with this I feel as if I am always driving on a very windy day when going 60 mph or higher.

This is the third time we have had an issue with my wife's Jeep. 2019 Jeep Cherokee limited. First issue was just over a thousand miles, spent almost a month in the garage. Going down the interstate at high speeds the car shuts down and you lose all power steering, the brake pedal gets hard, etc. You lose all lights in the dash, all power going up hills, have to stop completely and restart in order to go anywhere. Serious safety issue as reported to Jeep multiple times now and they have said is fixed. We have requested they swap out our vehicle with another new Jeep and they refused. This is a serious serious safety issue where the ability to safely drive the car abruptly stops while you are driving. Power steering completely shuts down as does the car transmission making it so you can go nowhere. We have been almost wiped out by a semi truck on the interstate, this is after their third attempt at fixing the vehicle and saying it is fixed. And safe. We have requested time after time for them to give us a new Jeep and they refused because they don't want to dish out the money or whatever the case is. This vehicle can lose power steering and the transmission can go into neutral at any time while driving down the road causing you to be left with a very unsafe vehicle at highway speeds and potentially unable to steer the vehicle. It is a miracle that my wife who was 40 weeks pregnant at the time was able to put all her muscle into the car and steer it away from going over a cliff the first time when it died. The second time we were on the interstate on the way to a doctor's appointment. Third time was today on the interstate again.

Our brand new 2019 Jeep limited 4 X 4 with V6 engine (285 miles) was started up in our driveway I noticed the battery light was on. The dashboard stated the start/stop function was no longer working. The seat would not move for driver 2. we needed to get to an event and attempted to pull out of the driveway when we noticed the power steering was not working. We returned the car to its spot on the driveway. The car was started this morning with no battery icon showing and no dashboard memo. I'm afraid to drive this vehicle and will get it to a dealership.

Vehicle was leased on 10/5/18. On 10/13/18 with 342 miles while driving on a highway towards the mountains and making a turn into an exit the steering wheel locked up and steering wheel service light went on. The car almost smashed into the sidewall. I was able to stop the vehicle in time to avoid any accidents. There was also burned smell coming out of the hood. The car was towed to the nearest dealership. The dealership advised me that they have no available loan cars at the moment and to reach out to Chrysler Corp. I have still have not heard back from the dealership nor the case manager from Chrysler corporation. I have made numerous attempts to reach to someone with no luck. I am surprised at the way the dealership where I leased the car, the dealership where the car was left for diagnoses and the Chrysler Corp is handling this issue.

My new car has 2,800 miles due for an oil change at 5 months/5,000 miles. The engine failed once for no known cause after 2 weeks in the repair shop. Now my car died while in motion on busy roads and a highway ramp at speeds between 15-40 mph without warning or lights. This is sla safety hazard as the steering goes and car just comes to a stop without any warning. I had it towed after it's 5th time in 4 days stopping while in motion and shutting down. Jeep told me it's empty on oil but yet the oil light indicator doesn't come on. They said it is a known issue without a fix for all 2014-2019 Jeep Cherokee. They are aware but are not fixing or addressing the oil consumption without light issue that puts drivers in motion at risk of an accident or losing their life. If no warning is coming on that your oil is empty long before a die oil change and my car can just die while in motion along with others as again they stated it's a known issue is a road hazard for anyone in these cars. My car is 3 months old and I feel unsafe driving it on any roads for fear I will be hit by another driver as it's just losing power and shutting down in the street in motion. Jeep cannot fix this but knows about it.

I was driving down the street and all the sudden my car just shut off. I had no control over the vehicle at all. Then it started driving backwards as it was in drive. I couldn't not get it to go into park and it took a minute or 2 to get it into park. The. The dash told me to turn the car back on and it wouldn't turn back on at first. This is the second time this has happened to me. The vehicle was moving and just all the sudden turned off. I went and checked the oil after reading about this with other customers and I had no oil in my car.
