What 259 owners told NHTSA about the 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Srt

Recall Z48 service was performed 02/09/23. Fox Jeep invoice #556304. Facility mechanic confirmed issue was present prior to performing recall as the brake lights remained on for several minutes after parking, shutting off, and exiting vehicle. Recall Z48 PCM update was completed. Vehicle continues to exhibit same issue with brake lights remaining on for several minutes after vehicle is parked / shut off / occupant exits. I believe Stellantis has a known issue with the ABS module in this vehicle and needs to replace the module with a properly functioning unit instead of attempting to conceal the fault through another PCM update. Attached copy of invoice from recall performed 02/09/23 @ 70,316 miles and photo of brake lights remaining on after exiting vehicle taken last week @ approximately 76,000 miles.

Additionally, while at a stop light, the engine revved to 2500 RPM's and the brake pedal had to be pressed to prevent the vehicle from experiencing unintended acceleration. The same failure also occurred while his wife was driving approximately 55 MPH. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and was serviced under NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V426000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic) but the failure persisted.

I was sent a recall notice ( Z48/NHTSA 22V-426 ) and contacted the dealer to schedule. the recall is for the breaking system, and it took months to get an appointment, apparently bad breaks are not a concern? when I was finally able to get an appointment they claimed I had no recall? I described the issues to the service manager, and he said that I was experiencing the issue the recall was supposed to fix but they would not fix it as a recall, because they claim I do not have a recall despite getting more than 1 letter. the issue - the vehicle will not stop in and emergency situation. I have tried this at 25 MPH, and just slowed down, I have nearly hit other cars because I could not stop topping a blind hill. I have a long list of very scary examples. FCA says they will not add my vehicle to the recall list, so in case of a major crash or running over a child, I guess I will go public with legal backing. this complaint will also be noted that it was brought to your attention.

Jeep dealer has still not issued a repair solution for the open recall on my car that was issued in June 2022. The recall cannot be repaired as Jeep does not have a solution in order to fix.

NHTSA ODI 11494788

Outstanding recall Z-48. This recall was first identified in June 2022. The dealers cannot fix the problem because Chrysler Corp. has not provided a solution. This is affecting the operation of the vehicle and probably reducing the resale value. Five months seems to me too long a time not to have a solution. Can the government give them an ultimatum of either provide the fix in the next 30 / 60 days or provide a cash discount on trading in the vehicle.

AFTER GOING THROUGH AN AUTO CAR WASH THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE CAR ROLLED INTO A POLE WHILE PULLING UP TO A VACUUM STATION ABOUT 50 YARDS FROM THE EXIT. I BELIEVE THE ABS SYSTEM NOTIFIED THE CAR THAT IT WAS IN A SLIDE BECAUSE THE REAR WHEELS CONTINUE TO ROTATE WHILE THE FRONT WHEELS ARE NOT ROTATING WHILE BEING PULLED THROUGH THE CAR WASH TRACKS. THEREFORE TRICKING THE SYSTEM INTO THINKING IT SHOULD NOT BRAKE WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED.
