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.
It's very annoying! I have my mechanic trying to figure out what the problem. I changed the sway links because they were loose, but didn't stop the popping that the problem is causing. My mechanic has told me he has heard from a lot of other mechanic that is hearing the same problem. He has said he has been told that a few mechanic are saying it could be in the transfer case, but no one knows for sure. If anyone else is having this problem or knows what is causing this problem please let me know. Thanks
