When driving the truck will randomly shut off or stall no matter the speed or if its parked. replaced the crankshaft and cam shaft position sensor and still has the same issue. These vehicles must have a bad ECM unit on them or something.
Discovered that all windows and side mirrors were no longer operarable from within vechicle panel on driver side. Unable to lock the vechicle from within, as well. Unable to lock the vechicle with key control from outside, only manually, though the key control can still lock all other doors, including the rear gate.

Anytime I hit a small bump in road or when turning the front end loses control and vehicle shakes violently sending me into other lane. Several wires have melted under the hood and the front driver seat gets extremely hot while driving a distance over 13 miles
Electrical issues!!! ive replaced the blower motor resistor beacuse the original manufacturer part failed due to the pigtail melting into the harness. The replacment parts do the same thing after having the heat/ac on for a while you can smell it burning and melting... ive went threw 4 new replacment parts already and this seems like a recall as each time I was tkld im lucky it didnt cause a fire as the wires were completely melted.
Takata recall. Clock will not go off at anytime, so battery goes down overnight all the time. Brake and ABS lights stays on while driving. Ignition key doesn't match door nor hatch locks. The exhaust system has vibration at times when in motion. When test driving this vehicle I just assumed the vehicle had been sitting with an older battery was why it needed to be jumped. Then after I got it home and it sat overnight and I had the same problem; I thought I'd left something turned on. Then I discovered that the clock will not go off. I purchased this vehicle on 5/17/2019 as is.

The contact owns a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the front and rear doors did not unlock from inside the vehicle and the windows would not roll down. The contact became trapped inside the vehicle. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The contact finally managed to exit the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. An independent mechanic diagnosed the vehicle, but the results were unknown. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 18,000. The VIN was unknown.
Without warning my Jeep engine will shut off. It doesn't matter if it is while stopped or driving it will shut off and not turn back on until about 10 minutes later. When it has shut off it will still turn over and I have power to everything I need but it will not fire up. This happened first on a sunny morning driving in town. I towed it back to my house and could not get any codes. It fired up and I thought it was fine so I kept driving it. At this point about ten minutes down the road in the middle of traffic and while cruising along a busy road it shut off, I had power and the ability to steer but no power steering. Luckily I had a driveway to pull into and I coasted into it. This happens without warning. At this point I have my Jeep at the dealer in modesto ca for a diagnostic and they have told me that I need to replace the computer and the wiring harness for 1400 dollars and then they will see if that fixes the problem. Not a guarantee it will fix the problem. This is unacceptable to me as I cannot spend this type of money with the hope that whatever other problem there might be will be more affordable or easier to diagnose. This has to be a problem that is inherent with the Jeep itself and a manufacture defect. Not only do I not believe this is my fault as a user of the vehicle but I believe that this has caused an unsafe operating condition and I could have been seriously injured if this had happened on another road such as, a dirt road, mountain road, winding road, in icy or rainy conditions, or on the highway. This has also caused me to not be able to sell this car for any reasonable price, and the price for repair is over a quarter of the blue book of the car. Overall I do not feel safe with this vehicle for the intended purpose it was made for and this needs to be investigated before someone gets killed. Thank you
Seat heater wiring inside both front seats cracked at seat heater elements causing electrical resistance and melting of seat cushion material surrounding wiring. This defect was previously addressed via safety recall 09V11700 in 2009. Chrysler claimed my vehicle had received the safety recall, and the parts are only warranted for 2 years. If this is true, the new parts have the same fire hazard as the old parts.
The driver's side control for the windows and doors does not work making it impossible to put the windows down or lock the car. This occurs when in motion or while stationary. It is a safety concern.
Back seat on driver side window is stuck in the down position, the window button was pressed while driving on a local state road and would not go back up. Bad wiring should be the culprit...
