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.

Found out after the alternator failed, that there was a recall on it. It caused the battery to die, and burnt out the PCM module. Found out a year later I could file for the reimbursed by Chrysler for the $1700.00 repair and was compensated by the company.
