Problems with 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee STEERING

My jeep all of a sudden stalled right before a sharp corner causing panic and loss of control of the vehicle. my family is scarred and my wife does not trust driving the vehicle especially after not even a week later we received a recall letter stating vehicle can stall but there's no solution!!!! when the jeep stalled i drove into a ditch unable to over power the all of a sudden tight steering and now i have suspension problems!

Sound coming from steering column when turning. dealer diagnostic identified a failing steering rack and pinions. need to replace.

While slowing down to make sharp turns the vehicle will spontaneously shut off causing the power steering and breaking to not work. there are no error codes that come up and the radio and air/heat continue to work. the only reason you know the car shut off is because the breaks and power steering won't work. this has happened multiple times but you can never recreate the problem on cue. it just happens randomly without warning. this has happened both coming off the highway ramp around a turn and on a normal back road street going around a turn. the last time this happened was 11-13-2019

Power steering lines leaked at 80k ( january 2019 dealer repaired ) now 7 months later (august 2019) both lines are leaking again.. it's going in on the 19th for repair but someone told me their is a huge fire hazard with this fluid leaking and has caused major car fires and steering failure. is there or was there a recall at some point with the 2012 grand cherokee to fix this issue permanently ?i bought this truck in 2017 so i'm unaware of a recall about the power steering issues. my jeep was serviced at lagers of mankato mn ..

I recently purchased this vehicle and it completely shuts off unexpectedly. when it does it affects both the braking and the steering. the first time i was stopped at a light and was an easy fix but the 2nd time i was getting off an exit around 50 mph. i have young children and now i am scared to drive them around in it. i know in not the only one this is happens, there's complaints all over the internet. there should be a recall before someone dies.

The first time my power steering when out i had stopped to do something. got back in my jeep and thought i had a flat because it was so hard to turn the wheel. got out to look and everything was fine. got back in, drove it around a neighborhood street and steering returned to normal. had a mechanic top off the power steering fluid and was fine for months. yesterday was leaving to got to the store and just before i got out onto a busy hwy the power steering stopped working. this time i could not budge it. i call my mechanic friend. by the time he got there the steering was normal again. he checked the level and was fine. if i had gotten out onto the hwy and this happened i would have been a sitting duck. this is a 2012 jeep grand cherokee with 80,000 miles on it.

My vehicle has decided to start bogging around 35mph. it has continually done this for a week and has decided to start driving horrible. it does not drive like it has been. we are going to check what the problem might be sunday (7/7/2019) and attempt to fix. my jeep is no longer covered under warranty.

Mientras guiaba normal no sucedia nada, al dar una curva cerrada se tranc el guia inmediatamente y le eche lquido de power steering y nada de que se arreglara. leyendo un internet vi que esas guaguas tenian ese defecto y algunos modelos tenian recall en la power steering pump pero al poner mi vin no salio nada. quisiera q revisaran. cuando le ponen la maquina para verificar no marca nada, no son los fusibles.

Engine stalls for no reason under braking and deceleration. happens more often when braking and turning. loss of power steering when it happens. does not happen frequently , more often in the cold when the car has been started. cant replicate it when car is hot. dangerous when it has happened on exit ramps as car has to be controlled with no power steering and car has to come to a complete stop, put in park where it has always restarted. people behind me not happy when stopping on exit ramps. have brought to dealer after it has happened and the car has not thrown any codes. there is not real pattern to this stalling, but, having to stop the car to restart it posses a danger of getting rear ended. happens at speeds between 30 to 60. happens most frequently in rotaries (roundabouts) when slowing down to enter.

Hello, i am the original owner of a garage kept 2012 jeep grand cherokee overland 5.7 with 73000 miles. on 1 april 2019 the power steering rack went bad. other jeeps have had the same problem, but no recall. the vehicle was moving and turning. this is not a good thing for such a high end jeep product. very costly repair. please advise.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep grand cherokee. the contact heard an abnormal noise when the steering wheel was turned in either direction. the contact was concerned that the steering could seize without warning. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the dealer was not contacted. the failure mileage was not available.

I was advised during an oil change that power steering rack and pinion assembly needs to be replaced due to leaking fluid. the nhtsa database is filled with similar complaints about this defective part. with 10 recalls already on this vehicle, please investigate to determine whether a recall is warranted for this issue as well. thank you.

The rack and pinion steering is leaking at 75,000 miles. after being qouted 2600 dollars for the fix, i did research and found that most other jeep owners are experiencing this problem in low mileage jeeps also. contacted jeep with no response. the issue has been noted to cause the jeeps to become unresponsive and dangerous as steering becomes useless.

Vehicle loses all power when slowing down or stopped. lose ability to steer. have to restart the vehicle.

When slowing the vehicle it will just silently shuts off. this happens usually at the same 5 places, 3 of them when slowing to make a right hand turn in an s turn and the other 2 going straight slowing to stop to make a left turn across traffic. i feel like it's a combination of braking, steering wheel and when its shifting into 1st since i'm either in a stopping situation or s turn situation. when this happens i loose steering and brakes causing me to go into the opposite lane of travel head on. there have been recalls on the alternator for my vehicle but mine has never been included. there has been a recall for a sensor that has been completed but did not solve the problem. this is a serious issue, my chance for a head on collision is very very scary. this happens about 6-10 times a week.
