Jeep cuts out in middle of driving it says engine misfire on 3. Driving down road will almost died or not run in traffic im lucky I havent had wreck yet to scared to drive it have seen all over the interent how bad it is mechanics cant seem to fix even jeeps own mechanics
The Jeep dealer replaced my ignition switch that was part of the 2014 ignition switch recall. My Jeep continues to lose power after successfully turning on. It will turn on for a less than one minute, all the lights on the dash board will turn on, and the engine will have sudden loss of power. It can take up to an hour to get it to turn back on without it losing power again. If driven after it turn on without waiting at least 2 minutes, the car will suddenly lose power while in drive. This has been happening on an almost daily basis since 2019, which resulted in it being parked in the driveway for 6 months for fear it would turn off while driving on the freeway.
Maybe hose radiator to the ac vent under the passenger cabin. My son got a 2nd degree burn on the top of his foot.the problem is not fixed.it was inspected by the local police and fire chief.there was no warning at all..
Driving at a speed of 60mph - all my instrument panel lights started flashing, the car loss all power and turned itself off. I was able to muscle car to shoulder. Put back in park and 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee drove the rest of the trip (10 miles) with no other issues. Very dangerous situation! thankful there was not much traffic when this occurred.
Have has to replace water pump 4 times for leaking. Replaced 2 power steering pumps. Transmission and slipped and chirped since I bought it. Noticed metal shaving in my oil.
The vehicle's gauges will turn off while driving randomly. The speedometer, odometer, tachometer, fuel gauge will all zero out for unspecified amounts of time. Sometimes 10 seconds, other times until the vehicle is started back up. This occurs when the vehicle is in motion. Sometimes it causes the car to completely shut off and come back on. While shut off, the car sounds like it is struggling to continue its forward progress. This happens every couple thousand miles (2-3 months apart). Once the car corrects itself, the check engine light appears. After starting the car 2-3 times, the misfire corrects itself and the check engine light turns off.
The contact owns a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee. While driving at 40 mph, the vehicle failed to shift gears. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to golling Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (2405 S telegraph rd, bloomfield hills, mi 48302 (248) 334-3600) where it was diagnosed there was to much transmission fluid in vehicle. The third and fourth solenoid slipped. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 97,006.
On several occasions the Grand Cherokee has suddenly shut off while driving. The vehicle loses all power, loses power steering and brakes causing an extremely dangerous situation. Dash lights all go out. Upon restart, check engine light stays on but vehicle functions again.
During rain storms both driver and passenger sides are flooded with water. This has ruined carpet in vehicle and will probably rust the bottom of the car. - vehicle stationery in driveway of home. The safety belts both driver and passenger sides are not working - do not secure unless you push down hard to engage the belt into lock mode. I do not feel safe when I have to manually engage the belt hook into the lock. I had an accident and crashed into a fence, the airbag did not deploy. Vehicle in motion at time. When I start the engine, vehicle still in park mode, it accelerates in high mode without stepping on gas pedal. On a city street.
I truck is not pulling good, I have to really step on the gas to make it go. Even if iam not going up a hill, I have to press the gas hard to make it go.
The left rear exhaust manifold bolt broke causing an exhaust leak must be an issue with the 2006 seen other reports of the same bolt breaking, car was in motion city street
Recently bought our Jeep and have dimming lights due to low idle and also have a problem with starting it. There are times it wont start unless the battery is disconnected and reconnected 5 mins later and that's after shutting the vehicle off after driving it. From what I have read there is an issue with the wire harness from the battery. The low idle is making the lights dim throughout the vehicle and from what I have read on that it needs a system update that can cost roughly 1000 which I dont have. My wife also said while she was driving home that the transmission slipped on her for no apparent reason. She said she pulled over and put it in park and back in gear and then it acted fine.
Ignition key failure and electrical issues with locks. Vehicle will not start at frequent and in frequent times. Vehicle seems to think that there is a key in the ignition. Dealer has looked at and replaced on previous recall. Problem is not fixed and vehicle will leave you stranded. Took back to dealer and they can't find issue! vehicle was stopped and stationary. Does not start when key is inserted and vehicle is parked.
