Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“We purchased this vehicle new, with 4,658 miles on it and within the first day, we noticed the extremely rough shifting between 2nd 4th gears. After several PCM reprograms and a new transmission, it is still doing the rough shifting and continues to worsen. In heavy traffic, the accelerator is inconsistent, sluggishly moving forward on one occasion and lunging forward as if the gas pedal was mashed to the floor on the next. …”
NHTSA complaint #10695557, filed 2015-03, 4,680 miles“As has been reported by others, my Jeep Cherokee has brake for no apparent cause on three different occasions. The collision imminent tone has sounded at the same time. There was no accident or loss of control at the time this happened, but it was disconcerting. On two other occasions, the same thing has happened, but these were triggered by a car leaving the road to the right side, to turn at an angle into a street that branched off the route I was on. …”
NHTSA complaint #10723673, filed 2015-06, 6,000 miles“I had a roll away incident back around august 25th 2015 I pulled into my driveway and put the car (2014 Jeep grand Cherokee overland) in park .I turned it off and exited the car. It started rolling forward so I jumped back in the car and put on the brake then moved it backwards a little and exited the car again. Again the car was in park and shut off.as I was walking away from the car it rolled forward again about 8 feet .I know it was in park, when it was not in gear. I got out of the vehicle and it started to roll back on me. …”
NHTSA complaint #10759622, filed 2015-08, 4,200 miles“Vehicle's adaptive cruise control w/ stop-and-go was activated and set to 40 MPH. On approach to an intersection with stopped traffic ahead, the adaptive cruise control feature failed to slow the vehicle and a rear-end collision nearly occurred. The system had a clear field of view and approached stopped traffic from approximately 300 yards. The vehicle's collision alarm and brake booster activated as I waited for the system to slow the vehicle. Using full braking force, the vehicle came to rest approximately 5 feet from the vehicle in front of me.”
NHTSA complaint #10691211, filed 2015-02, 11,784 miles“While driving the odometer messages started popping up and an alert chimed for each one: acc / fcw unavailable service required; big red battery icon and low voltage message; park assist off message; radio screen went blank; small red battery icon remained lit on the odometer screen. I then selected to view the battery voltage along with my speed on the odometer screen. The voltage moved from 16 to 15 and stopped at 14v (1/2 charge) all in less than 5 seconds. I tried to make a hands-free phone call and as the phone was ringing the phone call was terminated by the vehicle.”
