My jeep started with an error 'service shifter' on the control panel shortly after that all the codes started popping up. steering wheel, tire pressure, etc. i took it to the dealership they have replaced the body control module but unfortunately the codes have not cleared. i've had this vehicle for only two years the service department at the dealership can not pinpoint the problem on it.

I have a acc / fcw unavailable message that deactivates my auto breaking system to prevent a collision. this error message may relate to the orc module that may control other safety devices in the vehicle such as the air bags. this deactivation occurs while the vehicle is in motion city street and on the highway.

Car will not start, told issue with independent power distribution module failure. told there are recalls but not on my vin. reading issue could also cause vehicle to stall if issue occurred while driving. did have power train recall done and was told could be related.

Yesterday out of nowhere my passenger headrest deployed, i wasn't in an accident i was just parked and the headrest just popped out of place. i call the dealer and they told me is over $600 of repair. i don't understand why i should pay the repair when it is a vehicle malfunction.

Car shut off unexpectedly 3 separate occasions after being service by local service shop and dealership. it left me stranded in middle of street.

Our daughter purchased this 2014 jeep grand cherokee and within 18hrs of purchase the jeep wouldn't start. the jeep does not respond to the push button start and no codes appear once the jeep is able to start. on one occasion driving down the road the dash lights blink then turn off and back on. it has left her stranded on at least 5 different occasions where it took over 2hours before it would start. the car battery has been replaced, key fob battery replaced, body control module, and the dealership is still trying to track down the problem. it's been in the shop for almost a solid month. she has only driven it the equivalent of 24hrs since all this started.

Vehicle experiences random illumination of multiple instrument cluster warning lights, loss of cluster illumination, loss of speed display, and loss of abs and esc system functions. sometimes vehicle shifts into 3rd gear, and does not respond to shift commands. this occurs randomly, sometimes right after start-up, sometimes after a few minutes of driving.

The alternator in my vehicle failed and caused the car to stall while driving on the highway. there is a recall, p60 alternator but it is only related to the 3.6l engine and i have the 5.8l v8. there is also an advanced communication t3607112017 which seems to describe my vehicle and includes the v8 jeep but it is also not listed as a recall on my vehicle. how do i find out why my vehicle was excluded from the recall as my vehicle was affected.

The windshield wipers will not turn off and the turn signal blinkers do not work. all was working; the next day the problem started. started the vehicle and the windshield wipers started even though the switch was off. the continued windshield wiper problem made it easy to identify that something was wrong. took it into the dealer for a recall problem (safety recall u65- reprogram powertrain control) and had them look at the new problem, too. the multi function switch was fine but the vehicle needed a new vehicle harness and would cost over $3,500 to fix and install. the dealer would have to order the harness because they do not have any in stock. the dealer charged $145 and kept the car for two days to tell me that. have disconnected the battery several times in an effort to reboot the vehicle computer. looking online this is not the only time this has happened. the problem is unresolved.
