What 1,637 owners told NHTSA about the 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk

ENGINE STALLS FOR NO REASON UNDER BRAKING AND DECELERATION. HAPPENS MORE OFTEN WHEN BRAKING AND TURNING. LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHEN IT HAPPENS. DOES NOT HAPPEN FREQUENTLY , MORE OFTEN IN THE COLD WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN STARTED. CANT REPLICATE IT WHEN CAR IS HOT. DANGEROUS WHEN IT HAS HAPPENED ON EXIT RAMPS AS CAR HAS TO BE CONTROLLED WITH NO POWER STEERING AND CAR HAS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, PUT IN PARK WHERE IT HAS ALWAYS RESTARTED. PEOPLE BEHIND ME NOT HAPPY WHEN STOPPING ON EXIT RAMPS. HAVE BROUGHT TO DEALER AFTER IT HAS HAPPENED AND THE CAR HAS NOT THROWN ANY CODES. THERE IS NOT REAL PATTERN TO THIS STALLING, BUT, HAVING TO STOP THE CAR TO RESTART IT POSSES A DANGER OF GETTING REAR ENDED. HAPPENS AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 30 TO 60. HAPPENS MOST FREQUENTLY IN ROTARIES (ROUNDABOUTS) WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO ENTER.

SAFETY RECALL WAS DONE INCORRECTLY, LEADING TO BRAKES FREEZING UP. DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE PAPERWORK SHOWING THAT THE RECALL HAD BEEN DONE ACCURATELY. ACCORDING TO RECALL T59/NHTSA 17V-572 A VACUUM TEST SHOULD HAVE BEEN COMPLETED. IF THE BOOSTER DID NOT PASS TESTING, THE BRAKE BOOSTER SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS NOT REPLACED, ALLOWING MOISTURE TO ENTER AND FREEZING UP. IMAGES OF THE CORRECT INSTALLATION SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN IN ORDER TO BE SUBMITTED FOR THE RECALL. THE JEEP WAS IN A SHOPPING PLAZA, MOVING FROM PARKING LOT TO ANOTHER WHEN THE BRAKES FROZE UP. UNABLE TO GET CALL BACK FROM DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER. *DT CONSUMER STATED RUST BUILT UP INSIDE, BECAUSE MOISTURE WAS GETTING IN. *JB *DT*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD FAULTY BRAKES. ON OCCASION, THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD TO BE DEPRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOORBOARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE. ON OTHER OCCASIONS, THE BRAKE PEDAL COULD NOT BE DEPRESSED AT ALL. POMOCO CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM OF NEWPORT NEWS (12629 JEFFERSON AVE, NEWPORT NEWS, VA 23602, (757) 369-3565) REPAIRED THE WATER SHIELD ABOVE THE BRAKE BOOSTER PER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. HOWEVER, WHILE THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING AND CAME TO A ROLLING STOP, A MINOR FENDER BENDER OCCURRED WITH THE PRECEDING VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT WAS NOT INJURED. TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER CABLE WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER IN WILLIAMSBURG, VA WHERE THE BRAKE BOOSTER CABLE WAS REMOVED AND REPLACED WITH A NEW PART. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THE FAULTY PART WAS SENT TO THEM FOR ANALYSIS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

JEEP WAS HAVING BRAKE PROBLEMS. REPLACED ALL THE BRAKES THIS SPRING AND STILL HAVING A PROBLEM. TOOK THE JEEP IN TO THE DEALER IN JUNE TO HAVE THE BRAKE BOOSTER LOOKED AT, SAID IT WAS FINE. SINCE THEN THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN GETTING WORSE. TODAY I CRASHED INTO THE FRONT OF MY HOUSE. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER, LIKE I TOLD JEEP BACK IN JUNE. THIS SAME THING IS HAPPENING ON MANY OTHER JEEPS. PLEASE SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE. THE DEALERSHIP IS SAYING THEY LOOKED AT THE "SPLASH SHEILD" UNDER THE RECALL AND SINCE NOTHING WAS WRONG THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING ELSE ON THE BOOSTER. PLEASE READ OTHER JEEP OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. HTTPS://JEEPGARAGE.ORG/F73/MORE-BRAKE-BOOSTER-INTRIGUE-186178.HTML#/TOPICS/186178?PAGE=3. I TOOK THE MASTER CYLINDER OFF AND THERE IS A BUNCH OF RUST INSIDE THE BOOSTER. IT'S A CLOSED SYSTEM, DEBRIS SHOULDN'T BE BUILDING UP OR RUST SHOULDN'T BE GETTING IN THERE. MAYBE THIS WAS CAUSED FROM THE SPLASH SHIELD AND WATER GOT INSIDE?

WHEN SLOWING THE VEHICLE IT WILL JUST SILENTLY SHUTS OFF. THIS HAPPENS USUALLY AT THE SAME 5 PLACES, 3 OF THEM WHEN SLOWING TO MAKE A RIGHT HAND TURN IN AN S TURN AND THE OTHER 2 GOING STRAIGHT SLOWING TO STOP TO MAKE A LEFT TURN ACROSS TRAFFIC. I FEEL LIKE IT'S A COMBINATION OF BRAKING, STEERING WHEEL AND WHEN ITS SHIFTING INTO 1ST SINCE I'M EITHER IN A STOPPING SITUATION OR S TURN SITUATION. WHEN THIS HAPPENS I LOOSE STEERING AND BRAKES CAUSING ME TO GO INTO THE OPPOSITE LANE OF TRAVEL HEAD ON. THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON THE ALTERNATOR FOR MY VEHICLE BUT MINE HAS NEVER BEEN INCLUDED. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR A SENSOR THAT HAS BEEN COMPLETED BUT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, MY CHANCE FOR A HEAD ON COLLISION IS VERY VERY SCARY. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT 6-10 TIMES A WEEK.

4 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS, THE LAST TIME JUST TODAY, AS I WAS DECELERATING AND TURNING RIGHT WHILE GETTING OFF HIGHWAYS ONTO EXIT RAMPS, THE STEERING WHEEL FELT LIKE IT LOCKED - THE POWER STEERING TURNED OFF, AS DID THE POWER BRAKES - I HAD TO COAST, AND THE RPMS SHOWED 0, ALTHOUGH ALL THE LIGHTS WERE STILL ON. I WAS FORCED TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK - WHILE STILL ON THE EXIT RAMP - TURN OFF THE CAR AND TURN IT ON AGAIN TO GET IT TO DRIVE NORMALLY. WHICH IT DID, AS IF NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. BUT IT'S UNNERVING AND CERTAINLY UNSAFE, AND A QUICK SEARCH ON THE INTERNET REVEALS IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN QUITE FREQUENTLY TO OTHER JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2012 DRIVERS.

WHILE STOPPING AT A DRIVE-THROUGH ON MY WAY TO WORK, THE BRAKE SYSTEM EXPERIENCED AN ISSUE. I WAS AT A STOP WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL BACKED UP FROM THE FLOOR AND THE JEEP STARTED TO ROLL FORWARD. I HAD TO STAND ON THE PEDAL WITH BOTH FEET TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STOPPED. I WAS ABLE TO PARK FOR A MOMENT IN ORDER TO FIND A WAY TO GET THE VEHICLE SAFELY TO A NEARBY REPAIR SHOP. THEY IDENTIFIED THE ISSUE AS MY BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS PART WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED WITH SAFETY RECALL P14 BACK IN 2014. EITHER THE PART WAS NOT REPLACED, THE REPAIR WAS NOT EFFECTIVE, OR THE REPLACEMENT WAS ALSO DEFECTIVE SO AS TO CAUSE THE SAME FAILURE FOR MY JEEP NOW. ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND MY SECOND CATASTROPHIC SYSTEM FAILURE IN AS MANY MONTHS. SO GLAD I WAS NOT STILL ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED OR THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT!
