WHILE ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE PRNDL LIGHTS ALL ILLUMINATED. AFTER A FEW SECONDS POWER RESUMED. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD ITS ERROR CODE U0404 AND THE ELECTRONIC SHIFT MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT APPEARS THIS IS A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR THIS YEAR VEHICLE. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IF IT HAPPENED DURING HIGH TRAFFIC TIMES IT COULD CERTAINLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

2007 GRAND CHEROKEE REPEATEDLY LOST ENGINE POWER, POWER STEERING AND BRAKING. UNCLEAR ON LOSS OF AIRBAGS. VEHICLE TAKEN TO BOB CALDWELL JEEP DEALERSHIP IN COLUMBUS, OH. WE WERE INFORMED THAT NO RECALL EXISTED FOR THAT YEAR/MODEL. WHEN WE RETURNED HOME WE RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FOR CHRYSLER REGARDING DETAILS OF RECALL. IMMEDIATELY CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY WERE LIKE "OH, THAT RECALL". THEY HAD GIVEN US A $4000 QUOTE TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM PRIOR TO OUR BRINGING THE ACTUAL RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR CHRYSLER. CALDWELL THEN TOLD US THAT NO PART EXISTED AND THEY COULDN'T HELP US. TODAY I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND RECEIVED A REFERENCE #693786. IT IS SUPPOSED TO TRACK THE NON MANUFACTURED PART WHEN IT ACTUALLY SHIPS AT AN UNKNOWN FUTURE DATE. CHRYSLER IS NOT ABLE TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME..AT THIS POINT ACTUALLY THEY CANNOT FIX AT ANY TIME AS PART DOES NOT EXIST. THIS SITUATION PUTS MY FAMILY AT GREAT RISK. CHRYSLER STATES JEEP IS SAFE TO DRIVE...LET'S HOPE SO FOR OUR SAKE. *TR

FOR A COUPLE YEARS MY JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE HAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL EPISODES OF IGNITION SHUT OFF. I SPOKE WITH MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT AN ISSUE WITH JEEP, ONLY SOME DODGE MODELS. I PAID TO HAVE A 2ND COMPUTERIZED KEY MADE AT THE DEALERSHIP, AS DODGE WAS SAYING THEIR ISSUE WAS RELATED TO THE DRIVER HAVING OTHER KEYS ON IGNITION KEY RING. THIS WAY I HAD A SINGLE IGNITION KEY. STILL EXPERIENCED THE ISSUE. LAST TIME I WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN FROM A SUBDIVISION ON TO A BUSY 2 LANE HWY WITH A POSTED SPEED OF 50 MILES PER HR. IGNITION SHUT OFF AS I STARTED TO CROSS THE RIGHT HAND LANE. FORTUNATELY I HAD ENOUGH FORWARD MOMENTUM TO CLEAR TRAFFIC AND CAME TO REST ON THE LEFT HAND SHOULDER BY A FARMERS FIELD. I FINALLY RECEIVED IN THE MAIL THE OFFICIAL CHRYSLER RECALL NOTICE FOR MY JEEP DUE TO IGNITION SHUT OFF. CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER THIS MORNING TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT, ALTHOUGH THE RECALL SAID THEY WOULD CONTACT ME. WITH SEVERAL INCIDENTS, I FELT TIME WAS CRITICAL. MY DEALER ADVISED ME THEY HAD NOT RECEIVED THE OFFICIAL RECALL NOTIFICATION FROM CHRYSLER AND THEREFORE COULD NOT SCHEDULE THE REPAIR FREE OF CHARGE. IF HOWEVER I WANTED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR THEY COULD SCHEDULE. I ADVISED THEM THAT WAS NOT ACCEPTABLE. EMAILED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND HERE ALSO, MY DISSATISFACTION AND WHAT APPEARS TO BE A WONTON DISREGARD FOR HUMAN SAFETY BY A MANUFACTURE AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVE. *TR
