Shortly after my husband got home we heard someone honking their horn outside of our apartment, so we looked and our vehicle was on fire. It was parked and not running when it happened.
My 2007 Jeep G.Cherokee can be on the highway traveling 55 mph and then decided to die. It will shut off and cannot increase speed. I have a one year old in the back seat and this has happened to many times while having my son the back seat and trying to get over to the break down lane before it completely dies. Also doesn't start some days some will. Defiantly have electrical proven like in the recall. Their is a fuel relay recall there is a many recalls for the same things happening to my Jeep and it's becoming a hazard and scary for me traveling with my son.
The fuse box under hood is labeled incorrectly and on the cover states spare fuses in cavity 29 and 30. However, it is acctually the airbags which is why it is in a yellow safety holder and also the original manual that comes with the Jeep states that it is the airbag. However directly on the box under the hood it says cavity 29 and 30 are spares which are causing people to pull them out and use them as spares elsewhere unaware that they are in danger
Intermittent stalling issue. Initially the vehicle starts and runs fine. After stopping or extended driving duration the vehicle will random start stalling and check engine light flashes and dings. This will last for a few minutes sometimes and other times the entire trip. The last few times this has happened we were nearly rear ended and pulled over until it was somewhat drive able. I am terrified to drive it at this time for fear it will cause an accident. This has been an ongoing issue for a few years and has recently gotten worse. We've taken the vehicle to the Jeep dealership several times and have had numerous parts replaced but nothing has resolved the problem. The last trip to the dealer they said they could not replicate the described issue. With the use of a scope and code review, my husband has taken to replacing smaller, simple parts in hopes of a simple solution....spark plugs, 02 sensors and catalytic converters. Nothing has helped. Please help resolve this issue. Seeing all the other similar complaints, how many does it take to start an investigation or recall? it's a shame an accident it what it may take to attract attention to this issue.
When vehicle goes over a small or large bump, a dashboard light cluster indicates to service 4WD system and is accompanied by ABS, traction control, and esp bas warning lights. ABS is noticeably disabled when this light cluster appears. The indications usually last a few minutes before going away. This has been occurring for approximately the last 18,000 miles. When brought up at the dealership during routine maintenance, I am told they can find nothing wrong with the vehicle. On this last occasion, I lost full braking authority and was luckily able to gradually slow down and pull over to the freeway shoulder while applying the emergency brake. When the vehicle was shut off and turned back on the indications went away and braking was restored. Obviously, this creates a very dangerous situation.
All dashboard warning lights come on. Loss of electrical power. No headlights, no brake lights. Speedometer doesn't work, tachometer doesn't work, radio doesn't work. No power locks or windows. Anything electrical doesn't work. The battery is good. The vehicle runs. But it is unsafe. The vehicle is crap. Never buy a Jeep! they are total crap
Transfer case, suspension and ignition switch seems to be causing major issues after 105,000 miles and the "warranty" just ended just before all these issues started happening. When tried to start once the engine shuttered then turned off. Started up after that, but then it has issues wanting to accelerate and can feel the Jeep struggling at times to switch gears or whatever the transfer case may assist in. Also have noticed the suspension has start to rock.
The contact owns a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 14V438000 (electrical system) months ago. The dealer (brown's Jeep Chrysler Dodge Ram, 483 NY-112, East patchogue, NY 11772, (631) 289-8500) was unable to determine when the remedy and part would become available. The dealer stated that they placed the contact on a waiting list for the part, but did not specify what number the contact was placed on the list. While waiting for the part, a failure progressed that caused the key not to turn over to start the vehicle. Also, the service engine warning indicator illuminated. The manufacturer had seven tsbs on the engine. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.
Riding down rode. Speedometer and lights failed. Took to dealership while the vehicle was at the shop the walked away to file paperwork and airbags deployed on the vehicle. It was the right side air curtain. The entire length of the unit. According to the dealership the car was sitting motionless on the garage floor.
2007 Jeep 5.7L. Car stalls on acceleration from stops. Intermittent. Mostly when air is on. 80 degrees and up. Mostly after car has been driven, then parked a few minutes then then accelerated. So dangerous. Have replaced plugs and wires, oil, crankshaft position sensor, asd relay fuse. Now what? spent now $ 2000 on fixes. Dealer can't solve it. I read others with same car have the same. Code B2185 is showing. Chrysler should be sued for knowing the cause and not fixing it due to the cost. I want to join the class action suit while I and my family are still alive!
