2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee owner complaints (15)
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE
My Son just bought the car from a private party. On our way home the engine light and a lightning bolt icon illuminated on the dash, followed by the vehicle going into limp mode. We had the vehicle scanned for codes and it came back with P0336 (crankshaft position sensor performance). After much investigation online, we found out that this is a known issue with the crankshaft position sensor and, most importantly, the tone wheel on the back of the engine. We looked up recalls on the vehicle and found a safety recall had been issued. While some vehicles affected received replacement of the tone wheel and sensor, others just received a software update. This particular vehicle received the software update. The issue is that the magnetic material on the tone wheel delaminates from the tone wheel. This is a costly repair that should have been fixed correctly from the beginning, not just a software patch. It is a safety concern because it is dangerous when you are traveling at highway speeds and it goes into limp mode.
- AIR BAGS
Airbags failed to deploy in head-on collision at between 40-50 mph.
- SUSPENSION
The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the contact felt that the vehicle was misaligned. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where the contact was informed that the rear brake shocks needed to be replaced. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic, who informed the contact that no braking system failure was found; however, the rear-end air bag suspension had blown, causing the vehicle to lean on its right side. The contact was then referred back to the dealer, who scheduled a diagnosis appointment. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 106,000.
- POWER TRAIN
See attached document for complaint.
- ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
While driving on the highway my Jeep GC shifts into neutral. Once I'm able to pull the car over, I'm not able to put the car into park or shut the car off. After a bit of time the car will start back up and will drive. It has been to the shop and they can not find what is the problem. there are no codes to be read. In reading various forums that is a common problem with the 3.2l engine in the Jeeps. It is dangerous as you lose ability to drive the car on teh highway, when it happens and hopefully you are close to the left lane so you can pull over without being hit.
- ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
My 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit EcoDiesel (VIN: [XXX] ) experienced a catastrophic engine failure at approximately 116,000 miles while driving. The vehicle suddenly displayed an oil pressure warning, and I immediately shut the engine down to avoid further damage and potential safety risks. At the time I shut the engine off, the engine was not making catastrophic knocking noises and was not leaking oil heavily. The vehicle was towed to Astorg Dodge Chrysler Jeep in Parkersburg, WV. Before inspection, I specifically instructed dealership personnel not to start the engine because I suspected a serious oil-related issue and wanted to avoid causing additional damage. Despite these instructions, the dealership started and ran the engine anyway. After the dealership started the vehicle, the engine condition reportedly worsened significantly, including severe engine noises and much heavier oil leakage. I was later informed the vehicle would require complete engine replacement, with estimated repair costs ranging from approximately $10,000 to $24,000. At the time of failure, the vehicle was also subject to the unresolved Z46 High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) recall, which had not yet been completed. I had previously been informed that recall parts were available and the repair would be scheduled. I am concerned that the unresolved recall and/or related fuel system issues may have contributed to this catastrophic engine failure. I am also concerned about the potential safety risk associated with sudden oil pressure loss and catastrophic engine damage while operating the vehicle. I am submitting this complaint so the failure and unresolved recall involvement are documented and reviewed. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

NHTSA 20V-699, FCA W79 (replaces previous campaign 19V-757/VB1) - this recall involves an EGR Cooler but my VIN number was not included. Today, I have been informed by a mechanic that the EGR Cooler has failed and must be replaced. As this is the same engine and same failure as the above campaign, I am requesting that my repair costs be covered as a result
- POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER
While driving home from work on March 13, 2026, the alternator in my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee (3.0L EcoDiesel) failed, resulting in a progressive loss of electrical power. As battery voltage dropped, the vehicle entered “limp mode.” When I was aproximatly 1 mile from my home when I was forced to stop at a railroad crossing while a freight train was passing. At that time, due to low voltage, the electronic shifter and ignition system became completely unresponsive. I was unable to shift the vehicle into Park or Neutral and was also unable to shut off the engine. The vehicle remained in Drive, requiring constant brake pressure to prevent forward movement. This created an immediate and dangerous situation, as I was stopped very close to a moving train with no functional means of securing or disabling the vehicle. Any loss of braking force or control could have caused the vehicle to enter the path of the train, creating a high likelihood of serious injury or death. After reaching my residence, the condition persisted. I remained unable to shift or shut down the vehicle and was forced to manually disconnect the negative battery cable, which is located under the passenger seat, in order to stop the engine. I am very lucky that I had a small metric socket set in the vehice, that I am somewhat mechanically enclined, and that I have long arms & legs, as this process was extremely difficult. I had to disconect te battery cable while maintaining my foot on the brake to avoid crashing into my garage. The vehicle appears to be designed such that engine shutdown is not permitted unless the vehicle is in Park, while the electronic shifter becomes inoperative during low-voltage conditions. This combination creates a hazardous failure mode in which the driver cannot place the vehicle in Park or turn off the engine during an electrical failure. This incident appears consistent with hazards identified in NHTSA Campaign Number 16V240000 (Recall S27). Despite records indicating that rec
- SEATS
While driving down the road my active headrest randomly deployed and hit me hard in the back of the head. When I went to look at it to reset (because there had been no accident or collision) I saw that the plastic locking pins had broken. I researched the issue and saw that there was already a MOPAR recall for the same issue on the same year and model vehicle I have, but my VIN is not listed as an affected VIN so Jeep will not honor the recall for my product.
- STRUCTURE
RE: The Power Liftgate Module Malfunction Approximately 45 days ago I began to see water build up inside the well where the liftgate locks. After seeing this twice - after it rained - I was at the dealership for an oil change and asked them to take a look. After review they suspected water intrusion, as there was a recall but not specifically on my VIN. Dealership indicated water tests were needed and I needed to drop my car off for the day or 2. They also indicated to seek your help because of the recall. I couldn't leave my car there that day. On 3/28/26 I did several water tests on the hatchback, using a hose and controlled the flow over the different sections of the hatchback in grid fashion of 6 sections. Each section I sprinkled water like a light rain and then waited 60 mins to see if the water would make it into the lock well. After checking I dried the lock well and then waited another hour to be sure no additional water came into the lock well, before continuing the process over the course of that day and the next. Each time water intruded, entered the inside of the vehicle into the lock well. After conducting research on this issue, the recall stated that this could cause a fire, and not to park the car inside of the garage or near other vehicles. As a result, the hatchback is malfunctioning, it opens and then automatically reverses, and it closes. It will not stay open and is not usable. I'd like to bring it back to the dealership for further testing however, I'd also like to get this resolved in the same visit as I'm sure they will find the same outcome of water intruding causing the electrical issues with the liftgate. Due to it being a fire hazard, I'm afraid to use my vehicle. Can you assist so I don't need to leave my one and only vehicle with the dealership for more than a day or two?
- ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The vehicle was repaired under NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 23V411000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING) and 22V406000 (FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL) but the failure occurred. The contact stated that two days after the vehicle was repaired, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact arrived at the grocery store and after the contact walked back to the vehicle, the contact became aware of an unknown part hanging down from underneath the vehicle. Upon inspection, the contact became aware that the reluctor ring had detached from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was confirmed that the reluctor ring had detached. The contact was informed that the part was not available and needed to be ordered. The contact was advised to not drive the vehicle for long periods to avoid the engine overheating. The vehicle was not repaired; however, the dealer wrapped a rag around the connector in case of any leaks. The contact stated that failure persisted. The vehicle remained at the residence and had not been driven since. The contact inspected the vehicle and noticed that the rag the dealer placed in the vehicle was soaked. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 126,900.
- FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Component/System Failure: The internal fuel pump relay within the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM-7) failed. This component is not available for inspection as it is an internal board-mounted relay, but the dealership-installed External Bypass Relay (Part #CBWPR091AA) and the failed fuel pumps are documented on the attached service invoice. Safety Risk: The failure caused an unpredictable engine stall at highway speeds in heavy traffic. This resulted in a complete loss of motive power while moving, creating an immediate risk of a rear-end collision and leaving the vehicle stranded in a live lane of traffic. Confirmation: The technician documented a terminal 'static pressure drop' to 35 PSI (Spec is 58 PSI). Based on this confirmed low-pressure state, the dealer required the replacement of both the Main Fuel Pump and the Siphon/Auxiliary Transfer Pump, alongside the installation of the External Bypass Relay Kit (Part #CBWPR091AA) to restore safe operation." Inspection: The vehicle was inspected and repaired by the authorized manufacturer representative (Larson Chrysler Jeep). I have also opened a formal case with Stellantis Corporate (Case # 96059987). Warning Symptoms: There were no warning lamps, MIL messages, or starting issues prior to the initial stall. The 'Long Crank' and failure-to-start symptoms occurred immediately after the highway-speed stalls. The vehicle would not restart until it had sat for a period of time, indicating a thermal failure (heat soak) of the internal fuel pump relay. This resulted in the vehicle being stranded in live traffic multiple times while waiting for the component to cool and allow a restart "Note: The attached repair invoice from Larson Jeep contains a clerical typo in the VIN (listing a 'D' instead of a 'B'). The dealership has been contacted to provide a corrected copy, but the technical diagnostics and repair were Selling Dealer: Titus Will Used Cars Lakewood, WA Servicing / Repair Dealer: Larson Jeep Puyallup, WA
