2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L

The lumbar support airbags are over inflating on their own both the driver and passenger seats. To the point that it alters your seat position making it uncomfortable and dangerous for driving as there are times that it won’t go back down and positions you in an unnatural way. The passenger side one is so over inflated that it feels as if it could pop at any moment. It has inflated so much that it appears to have caused permanent damage to the seat by stretching the leather and padding. The stitching is coming apart and even when deflated some (won’t deflate all the way) it still sticks out from being stretched. I worry it could burst while driving causing injury or an accident. The car is only 2 years old. It is available for inspection at this time. It has not been to a dealer yet for diagnosis nor repair. It’s reproducible but only when it does it which happens to be more frequently and now also starting to be permanent. There are no warning lights or messages. It first started in the driver seat a couple months ago. The passenger more recently.

This vehicle had a recall for rear tire suspension popping off the vehicle. While my vehicle was parked in my driveway the rear suspension coil popped off the rear of my vehicle as described in the recall. I then took the vehicle to the dealership they first gave me the run around for a couple of days then when they could not explain why the diagnostic test came back as failure for unknown reasons I argued that they had nothing else to relate the issue to as there was no signs of anything else. After days of back and forth they finally agreed to fix it under the recall. Upon receiving the vehicle back they refused to give me any paperwork or reciept for the incident and stated they would email it it to me. I never received anything. Also when I went under the vehicle to check the work done I can see they replaced it with the original type of parts and did not give me updated parts like they claim they did. Again I have no paperwork to show what they did.

Our rear passenger spring coil flew off while driving down the HWY going 71miles per hr. We didn’t hit anything in road or pit hole, we were just driving and heard a loud pop and felt the back end drop. We immediately pulled over and checked the tires , tires were fine but the rear of our jeep was lower than normal. We were less than an 8th of a mile from an exit so we got off HWY and jacked the car up and the spring was completely missing just a rubber boot remained on passenger side.

This car is factory equipped with Continential Cross Contact tires that wear on the inside on all 4 tires, specifically the inner tread lugs caused by the Jeep self adjusting air ride suspension. This a safety hazard from multiple manufacturing defects and suspension problems that affecting traction and handling. Tires are worn to 0 depth on the inside at 15,000 miles and this wear is hidden from the consumer since it is only on the very inside of the tire. The car was in alignment at all times and confirmed with an alignment check at 15,000 miles.

Generally, for the entire time we've owned the car, it has ongoing and systemic electronics malfunctions. This ranges from the car slamming on its own brakes while driving to systems not working to the seat shifting on its own while driving to false positives in the NAV system, etc. A lot of the malfunctions are funny, some are dangerous, but the common thread is that in spite of months in repair and countless supposed repairs by dealerships, the problems continue. And, yes, some of these absolutely put safety at risk (slamming on the brakes for no reason, false positives on detecting objects in road, seat moving during vehicle operation, speedometer ceasing to work, etc). Chrysler has confirmed and acknowledged these problems in the form of various settlements in spite of our requests for a buyback, offering us money, but leaving us saddled with the lemon. What I'm complaining here about, however, is that for the second time the vehicle has apparently caught fire in the engine when started from being off. The first time, it was supposedly fixed by replacing a sensor, but it did it again today, stranding my wife and young son in a parking lot. This car is a death trap and will, sooner or later, hurt or kill someone.
