This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
On three separate occasions, vehicle check engine light went on/off within a matter of seconds. The first time was approximately one week prior to the most current two occurrences which happened about 30mins-1 hour apart. Vehicle was taken to the dealership and they advised that the system had recorded no error codes and were unable to determine what if anything caused the check engine light to illuminate.
The contact owns a 2010 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving approximately 5 mph, the front wheels seized. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis. The technician performed the repairs under NHTSA campaign number: 13V175000 (electrical system, power train) however, the failure continued. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
The contact owns a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4X4. The contact stated received notification of NHTSA campaign id number: 13V175000 (electrical system, power train) and stated that the remedy part remained unavailable beyond a reasonable time frame. The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The contact had not experienced a failure.
Vehicle shifted from neutral and accelerated striking the side of the garage. Parking brakes would not engage, causing significant damage to the vehicle and garage. Air bags did not deploy. I believe this accident was caused by a pending Jeep recall. NHTSA's # 13V175000.
The remote start and door unlock key may (or may not) work when activated the first time for a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Takes several tries for the doors to unlock. Failure of this remote is random and inconsistent. No action to date with the dealer due to random part failure.
