CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012 Grand Cherokee hasn't seen the same complaint volume as the 2011, at least not yet.
It's worth noting both model years are part of a class-action lawsuit that focuses on a defective TIPM and a long wait for replacement parts.
The 2012 also received national attention after it failed a Swedish Magazine's "moose test". The test measures a vehicle's ability to swerve out of the way of an obstacle you wouldn't want to hit while driving down the road ... like a moose.

My 2012 Jeep Grand cherokee stalls without warning for months now. Now it is starting to hard start or not start at all and continues to stall when i am driving. I have been to the dealership 10+ times and they have found "nothing wrong" but have attempted to fix other problems that i have had to pay for that have still NOT fixed the problem. It has not been able to be recreated even though they have kept it for a week multiple times and put hundreds of additional miles on it. This is a SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND HEALTH ISSUE when i am driving on the street or highway from 25/35+ MPH and all of a sudden it just stalls and there is not power steering or control AT ALL. It also "jerks" sometimes when I push on the gas when accelerating. There has been a recall regarding SOME 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokees but they say not mine. If i have continuously have this issue, WHY is mine not recalled as well??? I do understand that vehicle recalls are VIN specific although the manufacturer could have placed a defect part into mine also. I have asked for a monitor to be placed on my vehicle to "get the codes if possible when it stalls" but have been told "NO" 2+ times from the dealer. I do not have another vehicle to use whenever i need and have had to wait up to 2 weeks to get it to the dealer due to dealer rental availability.
