  • 12/31/2022· ENGINE

    My 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee started to leak oil slowly. We started to smell a burning scent when accelerating. This problem has slowly happened for a while before an oil light showed up on the dash. We took it to the mechanic & had an diagnostic test done. It was confirmed that our oil filter housing was leaking. This issue could have destroyed our engine. While pricing this repair, we've contacted several mechanics and all have stated that this oil filter housing is a major issue for Mopar (Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler, Fiat). The parts are sold out of Auto Zone, NAPA, Advanced Auto Parts and can only be purchased on the Mopar site or Amazon. The issue with the part is that it's plastic which dries, cracks & can be easily warped. Dorman has made an aluminum replacement which is hard to come by due to the amount of people that are constantly having to repair this part. The oil filter housing was poorly constructed/designed. This is a major malfunction that could completely ruin a vehicle. There are several YouTube videos, blogs and articles discussing this issue. This should've been recalled voluntarily but I'd like to know that I won't have to replace this part again on my dime in the future when a faulty designed item was placed into my car which is a large investment.

  • 12/31/2022· POWER TRAIN,ENGINE

    *NHTSA Please Help* I purchased my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee brand new in June 2014 from a FCA authorized dealership. I have meticulously maintained, gently driven, and greatly cared for this Jeep since day one. Have only ever had the Jeep serviced at the FCA authorized dealership where I purchased. I have followed and complied with all Jeep manufacturer service recommendations since day one. At 115,000 miles, I am currently experiencing a loud ticking noise resulting from failed rocker arms and failed lifters. These failed rocker arms and lifters will result in complete and catastrophic engine failure. I am also experiencing significant engine oil leaking coming from a failed oil cooler. The Mopar oil cooler in this 3.6 Pentastar engine is made of plastic, and is highly susceptible to failure. I have talked to multiple ASE Certified Mechanics that both issues I am currently experiencing are extremely common amongst these 3.6 Liter Pentastar V6 24 Valve VVT engines. I feel very unsafe as the owner and operator of this Jeep Grand Cherokee, and have lost all confidence as it relates to the safety and reliability of this vehicle. If the vehicle cannot provide reliable and safe transportation, that completely eliminates all safety as a driver and for all passengers of this vehicle. *NHTSA* Please help the owners of the vehicles with these engines with appropriate recalls and procedures to ensure the safety of our vehicles. Thank you.

  • 12/30/2022· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

    Fuel pump relay has failed. It is internal and soldered onto the tipm board under the fuse block. This is a well known issue and a cheap fix on 2011 - 2013 models of jeep grand cherokees. The fix was to wire in an external bypass relay. My only option at this point is to replace the tipm board which is quite expensive, hundreds of dollars, for a $8 failed relay....terrible design. Thankfully I wasnt traveling 70 mph on the expressway when the failure occurred, (stall/lose power). Please extend this recall thru the 2015 models

  • 12/30/2021· SEAT BELTS

    Both front seat belts (driver and passenger) failed within a few days of each other in mid September, 2021. They do not retract and consequently, the pretensioner does not function. I have made enquires that reveal that it is a known problem, and that NHTSA have previously investigated (NHTSA Action Number: PE19011), but that the file has been closed after the 'preliminary evaluation' and the agreement by FCA US LLC to extend the warranty on the driver and passenger from seat belt assemblies. After having to wait several weeks for an appointment with the dealer, even after explaining the fault and that it was a safety issue, we had the seat belts inspected by a Jeep dealer on 09/30/21 who confirmed the failure. We had previously received a notice from FCA US LLC in relation to the potential issue and that they were extending the warranty to 15 years/unlimited miles. My concern is that the issue has still not been resolved. The parts have not been replaced and we are told that they are on back order with no firm date for the parts to be in and installed, rectifying this serious safety issue. It is coming up on 4 months. It is our primary family vehicle, and the only vehicle we own that can be driven on winter roads. Our other vehicles are 3 season vehicles. I have been in constant contact with the dealer and FCA LLC customer care. Their customer care is window dressing. They continue to give excuses, deflect, the dealer blames FCA LLC and FCA LLC blames the dealer for the defect and problem not being resolved. We have exhausted all friends and family in borrowing a replacement vehicle over the past few months. We are now being forced to drive a vehicle with no operating from seat belts, in contravention of all road safety principles and laws. In my enquires on the NHTSA website, the ODI Resume, date closed 05/03/2, states in one of the final paragraphs 'that and NHTSA will take further action if warranted by future circumstances'.

LUCKILY THERE WEREN'T ANY CARS IN THE ROUND-ABOUT WHEN I ENTERED. HOWEVER, IT WAS A RATHER TIGHT ROUND-ABOUT AND WAS NOT ABLE TO MAKE THE TURN AND I WENT OVER THE CURB AND DROVE STRAIGHT THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE ROUND-ABOUT.. THE CAR RESTARTED AFTER ABOUT 3 SECONDS AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. ONCE THE CAR RESTARTED, ACCELERATION WAS EXTREMELY LIMITED. I CONTINUED TO PROCEEDED DOWN LONG POINT ROAD UNTIL I COULD PULL OFF. ABOUT 1-2 MINUTES AFTER THE FIRST POWER FAILURE, ANOTHER POWER FAILURE/COMPLETE SHUT DOWN OCCURRED. THE SECOND POWER SHUTDOWN LASTED ABOUT 5-7 SECONDS AND TURNED BACK ON. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OFF AND SHUT THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES.

JEEP COULD NOT PROVIDE THE PART BECAUSE THEY WERE OUT OF STOCK. THEY HAD BEEN OUT OF STOCK FOR FOUR MONTHS AND PUT ME ON A WAITING LIST OF 6-8 MONTHS. THEY ALSO ADVISED NOT TO DRIVE THE CAR DUE TO THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A NATIONWIDE EPIDEMIC AND THE SPECIFIC PART NEEDED IS ON BACK ORDER FOR OVER 4,000 PEOPLE. THEY SYMPATHIZED WITH THE STRAIN THIS PUTS ON THEIR CUSTOMERS BUT WE HAVE NO OPTION BUT TO WAIT FOR THE PART TO BE AVAILABLE. THIS ISSUE HAS NOT YET BEEN RESOLVED AS A RECALL. I AM AT A LOSS BECAUSE I CANNOT USE THE CAR, YET I NEED TO HAVE TRANSPORTATION TO WORK, AT THE LEAST. I HAVE YET TO COME TO A REASONABLE SOLUTION OF WHAT TO DO FOR THE NEXT 6-8 MONTHS WITHOUT AN OPERABLE CAR. FINANCIALLY THIS IS A HUGE SETBACK AND JEEP IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ISSUE.
