My 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee has a water leak in the rear compartment area. It is leaking next to the wiring which could cause a fire or electrical short.
There is a water leak in the rear cargo compartment of the jeep. Searching on-line I saw that there were numerous complaints of water leaking which may cause an electrical fire. There was suppose to be a recall on 2014 - 2016 Jeeps but when I entered my VIN # it did not come up. I am afraid my vehicle will catch on fire with this water leaking.

The contact owns a 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while in his vehicle, he noticed the dashboard rising as bubbles appeared. The contact mentioned the dashboard failure was becoming very concerning because its hard to see the roadway while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer lakeland square mall (3800 us highway 98 North, lakeland, fl 33809) where the dashboard was inspected and it was determined that the dashboard needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacture was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that there was no recalls was on the VIN. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000.
The auto start/stop feature does not properly function causing the car to shut off when we're at a full stop. I have to switch gear to park then re-start the car. The hood sensor doesn't register even if it's completely closed. The warning light on the dashboard will say it's open even when it's not.

My 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee were the air bag next to door and front windows has a large blind spot. This is not safe for making right turns or people who cross from my right or for the matter left turns can create this blinds turns where seconds matter in driving. I am not sure what can be done about it at this point but this just have been noticed before production. I have owned 3 Jeep but the liability of this make me worry on my next purchase.
The vehicle was parked inside the shop and I was vacuuming out the rear cargo area of a 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee (I was a detailer for for a local Jeep dealership) when the struts for the rear gate gave out and the door dropped and landed across my back. I have been out of work since the incident, have recently had back surgery and am currently collecting disability pay.
Very disappointed in this how Jeep (fca) has allowed a driver to back-up with the liftgate open, without a chime or other loud warning (similar to that when your doors are open. By accident I backed up after automatically closing the liftgate and assuming it was closed. The liftgate was not able to close and automatically re-opened without warning. I was in a parking garage and unfortunately the liftgate rubbed against the cieling of the garage, causing minor damage to the liftgate. It could have been much worse. I contacted Jeep to log my complaint but was rebuffed and believe me, for their attitude in addressing a safety issue that should be corrected immediately, I will think twice about buying another Jeep. No vehicle should be allowed to be backup with the liftgate open, and without a chime to alert the driver.
