Problems with 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Since i bought this vehicle when one turns a corner and the paddle shifter is in advertently touched the car can drop into any gear and can slow so that one stands a risk of being rear ended as has narrowly happened to me . there is a real need to prevent this dangerous behavior to have a preventer mechanism of some sort to prevent this by reprogramming the software or by mechanical means by installing a switch of some sort that must be separately engaged to transfer control of gear to the paddle shifter. *tt

Bought new in april 2013. since then, jeep has been in dealers service dept for many electrical problems, transmission problems, down loads to control modules and front and rear bumpers just falling off. radio was replaced, wiring harness replaced, many control modulars replaced, generator and battery replaced and the dealer even added an extra negative wire to the jeep to stop the exterior and interior lights from just turning off and on, altering the jeeps design. my jeep then began turning on and off certain controls, like the wipers would just come on and off, the radio would go up and down in sound then the whole screen would go black, turning off on its own, dealer had to replace the entire radio system. recent repairs were the transmission, which have been an ongoing problem within month of purchase. the jeep would not go higher the 2nd gear. dealer had to remove certain codes, replace with new codes and reprogram the tcm control module. this has been done many times. just last month, the front and rear bumpers just began to fall apart. dealer had to send jeep to a body shop for repairs. the jeep is in mint condition and aways has. it's service record is proof of proper mainteance on schedule. on one occasion after the dealer attemptedto finx the lights from going out and had the jeep for sevral weeks, the dealer told me they go the lights to at least not go out but it still has a slight flicker. when i told the dealership that's not fixed right, the dealer told me that they considered the repairs commercially acceptable. it's been almost a year since i hired an attorney to address this under the lemon law but chrysler continues to drag this issue out without addressing the safety issues my family continues to endure on a daily basis . asking the attorney to become more involved, i was told they have to do what the law allows

Bottom line: battery was sitting in a pool of water 4 inches away from the neg/pos battery terminal. potential electrical fire ? a newly acquired 2014 jeep laredo with less than 1000 driven miles from the date of delivery. we were hearing a water sloshing sound that was profound upon starting from a dead stop and then coming to a stop sign. once the vehicle was stopped fluid was heard sloshing around similar to a cooler of ice water. after doing an internet search there were similar problems found with this vehicle in the past. since this was a brand new vehicle, i took it to the dealer as i wanted to know if this was safe to drive. the service dealer of course said he never heard of this and that i would have to make an appointment. "i will not leave until someone either drives this car or looks at it and say it is safe". the counter guy was annoyed at my request and he went and got his chief service manager. to my surprise the service manager said to me as he was walking from across the service bay that he knew exactly what the problem was. we walked to the vehicle and he opened the passenger door and moved the passenger seat all the way forward. then he opened the rear passenger side door, took out the floor mats and opened the battery compartment that is located "inside" the vehicle under the passenger seat. there was water pooled around the battery and 4 inches from reaching the + and - terminals. the service manager went under the vehicle and removed the plastic plug the size of a quarter. water gushed out of the drain plug for at least 5 min then it turned into a trickle. the service manager schedule the vehicle to be fixed by a company that deals with water leaks. my complaint is that this posed an potential disaster from an electrical short caused by water pooling. now is there going to be a mold problem in the future? *tr
