2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Problems

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the mileage was 116,000, and after taking the vehicle to a certified mechanic, the Carfax report indicated that the actual mileage was 167,000. The contact had not reported the odometer fraud to another agency.

Vehicle will all of a sudden shut off with out warning while driving. It has shut off while in motion going about 25miles per hour . I hurry and put it in park and restart it. It has restarted every time. Sometime the lights on the dash will flash for a moment but has only done that 2 times out of the 10 that it has shut off while driving

I am experiencing so many problems with my jeep. It shift out of gear then start shutting down. Lights appear all across the dash board. At times, I have difficulty in shifting gear.The clutch slip and I get this burning smell. Then engine light comes on. It slow to move after shifting it into the forward gear. Sometimes it doesn't move when I shift it into the forward gear. Then when it does, it start bucking and kicking while driving. It slows down even when you press the gas pedal. Lastly, I have major problem with my a/c. It runs cool for a second and then completely shut off.

Car is currently parked: I own a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Larado which Jeep claims has no recalls yet there (3) all of which are happening to my vehicle. NHTSA 07V434000, 13V175000 and 14V438000. My car is very well maintained I have reached out to Jeep and claim my truck was not recalled yet my TRUCK is listed as having (6) recalls all of which are issues the truck is currently having. I have computer codes to prove it. I understand my truck have 150,000 miles and is 16 almost 17 years old however it was bought as an investment that Jeep seems to selectively correct issues only when they are threatened to be sued. This is totally ridiculous. There are multiple complaints from other owners. These things should have been recalled years ago. My vehicle has never been modified and we should not have to be responsible for recalls that are selectively being fixed when there are over 6000 complaints. Thank you

Jeep cuts out in middle of driving it says engine misfire on 3 . Driving down road will almost died or not run in traffic im lucky I havent had wreck yet to scared to drive it have seen all over the interent how bad it is mechanics cant seem to fix even jeeps own mechanics

I GOT IN A HEAD ON COLLISION ON JULY 11 IN THE CITY OF PARAMOUNT . I WAS AT A RED LIGHT MAKING A LEFT AS SOON AS IT TURN GREEN I WENT INTO MOTION LOST CONTROL MAKING A WIDE LEFT TURN AND WENT INTO THE SIDE WALK. I HIT A CEMENT TRASH CAN AND A CEMENT WALL AS WELL NONE OF MY AIR BAGS CAME OUT . BOTH INSURANCE AND THE BODY SHOP WHERE THE JEEP IS NOW STATED THAT IT WAS ODD THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T COME OUT . THEY STATED THAT THE HIT WAS BIG AND THE BAGS SHOULD HAVE CAME OUT . I HIT FRONT ON MY WHOLE FRONT END WAS DAMAGED BUMPER, LIGHTS , GRILL .I HIT MY FACE IN THE STEERING WHEEL CAUSING MY LIP TO BUST OPEN AND I HIT MY HEAD AS WELL IN THE TOP LEFT SIDE HANDLE. MY INSURANCE NOTED THAT THE VEHICLE IS A TOTAL LOSS DUE TO FRAME DAMAGE .I DIDN'T GO TO THE HOSPITAL BECAUSE OF THE MAX CAPACITY SO I'VE BEEN TAKING OVER THE COUNTER PILLS FOR MY BACK , HEAD AND SHOULDER PAIN I ALSO BEEN SEEN A NATURALIST FOR MY MUSCLE SPASMS.

MY VEHICLE CUTS OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING SOME DAY'S ON THE HIGHWAY AND HANDLE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS BROKEN SO I CAN'T GET OUT OF TRUCK WITHOUT PUTTING WINDOW DOWN AND OPENING FROM THE OUTSIDE LIFT GATE GLASS COMES OPEN ON IT OWN AND IT SPEED AND RPM GOES UP ON IT OWN WITH THE CAR CRANKED AND NOT BEING DRIVEN

DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 60MPH - ALL MY INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING, THE CAR LOSS ALL POWER AND TURNED ITSELF OFF. I WAS ABLE TO MUSCLE CAR TO SHOULDER. PUT BACK IN PARK AND 2007 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE DROVE THE REST OF THE TRIP (10 MILES) WITH NO OTHER ISSUES. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION! THANKFUL THERE WAS NOT MUCH TRAFFIC WHEN THIS OCCURRED.

THE ENGINE LIGHT SEEMS TO STAY ON AND THE TIRE LIGHT KEEPS BLINKING OFF AND ON I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE 10 25 2019

While driving on the highway the entire car suddenly shut off, on three separate occasions. All the lights lit up on the dashboard then the car would not accelerate. I turned it off when I reached the shoulder, waited about a minute then turned the car on again. I am grateful my daughter and I are still alive. I've had it in the repair shop for a month. They replaced the brake system and dealt with grounding issues but, they cannot figure out why it keeps happening. This is a very serious issue and I see that others have complained about it. Yes, the car is old and has over 175,000 miles on it but I see that this is a common problem so it should be addressed.

driving down the road my head lights with flicker on and off and its making the lights inside the jeep go on and off as well reported this awhile ago as well due to the face that tis is not safe while going down the road sometimes it will shut off on its own while driving and then it will come right back in like nothing happened

On this vehicle both front eat seatbelt receivers are faulty. This was not caused by an accident or excessive wear of the seatbelts. When you push the seatbelt into the receiver, it will not accept the seatbelt without first pushing down on the seatbelt button. Additionally, the vehicle does not recognize when the seatbelts are in use and the light on the dash stays on regardless. This issue started some time ago, however, more recently (past 3 weeks) the airbag light started coming on intermittently. I took the vehicle to a shop (not a dealer) and they diagnosed the airbag light as being caused by the driver's side seatbelt retractor spring malfunction. They were unable to repair and directed me to a dealer. Upon contacting the dealer they are only offering replacement of the seatbelts faulty seatbelts as customers expense. I have contacted Dodge customer service and asked what assistance they my provide. That issues is currently open under case number 89679478.

While operating vehicle, driver's side seat belt frequently disconnects without warning.

driver's side seat belt will not buckle unless button is pushed on the buckle

The ignition I believe lost connection with the key fob. Multiple times while driving the vehicle will randomly just die. An when trying to start sometimes it does nothing unless you push key in a certain way.

WHEN DRIVING THE DASH LIGHTS WILL COME ON HEATER STOPS WORKING MAKING IT UNSAFE

RECENTLY BOUGHT A 2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO. THE DRIVER SEAT BOUNCES. THE DEALERSHIP WON'T FIX IT. IT IS THE CLOTH BUCKET SEAT WITH POWER ADJUSTMENT. THE FRONT ADJUSTING GEAR OF THE SEAT HAS STRIPPED AND A SPRING NOW BOUNCES THE SEAT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL INDEPENDENTLY THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 93,000. *TR..UPDATED 07-17-13 *BF

STARTING AT AROUND 55,000 MILES WHILE I WOULD BE DRIVING MY JEEP, THE CAR WOULD STOP MOVING BUT THE ENGINE WOULD REV AS I PUSHED ON THE PEDAL. I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GO IN DRIVE, NEUTRAL OR REVERSE. I WOULD HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, WAIT A FEW SECONDS THEN RESTART THE CAR. I HAVE HAD MY CAR AT MY MECHANICS AS WELL AS A JEEP DEALERSHIP, A TOTAL OF 5 TIMES, NOW READY TO GO BACK IN FOR THE 6TH TIME. EACH TIME I AM TOLD THE PROBLEM IS FIXED AND A DAY OR 2 LATER IT HAPPENS AGAIN. WHEN I CALL TO LET THE MECHANIC KNOW I AM HAVING THE PROBLEM AGAIN, I AM THEN TOLD THAT NEITHER THEY NOR THE DEALERSHIP KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND TO BRING IT BACK IN. LEAVING ME WITHOUT A CAR FOR DAYS. I HAVE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY ON THIS VEHICLE AND DO NOT WANT TO SPEND THOUSANDS MORE FIXING A PROBLEM THAT IS NOT FIXABLE. I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN, AND FEAR THAT SOMEBODY IS GOING REAR END THE CAR WHEN IS JUST STOPS. I HAVE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER OF JEEP AND WAS TOLD ONLY "CERTAIN" 2006 JEEPS WERE UNDER RECALL, MINE WAS NOT ONE. ALL I COULD DO WAS MAKE A COMPLAINT. SO I MADE A VERBAL AND NOW WRITTEN COMPLAINT, HOPING SOMETHING GETS DONE. *TR

The vehicle's gauges will turn off while driving randomly. The speedometer, odometer, tachometer, fuel gauge will all zero out for unspecified amounts of time. Sometimes 10 seconds, other times until the vehicle is started back up. This occurs when the vehicle is in motion. So, is very dangerous. Sometimes it causes the car to completely shut off and come back on. While shut off, the car sounds like it is struggling to continue its forward progress. This happens occasionally. Once the car corrects itself, the check engine light appears. After starting the car 2-3 times, the misfire corrects itself. I did a previous report related to the air bag light is on, but not sure if it is related with the same electrical problem.

DURING ROUTINE VISITS TO MY NEIGHBORHOOD SUPERMARKET, I'VE NOTICED WHILE DRIVING THE RPM METER WAS GOING UP AND DOWN AT A STAND-STILL. NOW THE VEHICLE WAS MAINTENANCE REGULARLY AND I HAVE HAD ISSUES BEFORE I'VE REPLACED THE EGR VALVE, THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR, SPARK PLUGS, PCV VALVE, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER, A/C COMPRESSOR EVEN REPLACED THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. THE TRUCK ALSO SEEMS TO LACK POWER EITHER THAT BEING AN OLD SOFTWARE THAT IT IS USING OR THE OVERALL DRIVETRAIN IS JUST ABYSMAL. THERE ALSO SEEMS TO BE A LOUD THUD THAT COMES FROM DIRECTLY UNDER THE VEHICLE WHEN ENGAGING P R N & D. EITHER THE BUSHINGS ARE WORN OR THE DRIVESHAFT IS WORN. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN MULTI POINT CHECKED AT A LOCAL CDJ DEALERSHIP AND IT PASSED. ALSO THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED ON A RECALL. GOING AT LOW RPMS, I ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN GOING FROM 15-30 MPH THERE SEEMS TO BE A DELAY IN TRAVEL AS THE TRUCK WILL SEEM TO BE LAGGING OR WANTS TO SLOW DOWN WHEN MY FOOT ISN'T ON THE ACCELERATOR. WHEN IN MOTION, GOING AROUND 60-80 MPH, THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO HAVE A MODERATE SHAKE AS IN IT VIBRATES FROM THE UNDERCARRIAGE INTO THE CABIN AREA. IT WILL FEEL LIKE YOU'RE ON A ROLLERCOASTER AND THE VEHICLE IS JUST RUMBLING DOWN THE ROAD. IT FEELS SAFE AT TIMES, BUT WHEN THE 'SERVICE 4WD' LIGHT APPEARS IT BECOMES ALMOST FRIGHTENING TO DRIVE THE TRUCK AS IT REQUIRES MORE ATTENTION THEN ANY OTHER VEHICLE I'VE ENCOUNTERED. ALSO GOING BACK TO THE LAG, YOU'LL HEAR A CHAIN-LIKE SOUND AS IF THE DIFFERENTIAL HAS AN ISSUE. I'VE GOTTEN MOST OF THE FRONT-END REPLACED: TIRE-RODS, BALL-JOINTS, CV-SHAFTS/AXLES, STRUTS, STABILIZER LINKS AND MORE. NOW WHEN TURNING THE TRUCK, THERE SEEMS TO BE A LACK OF POWER AS WELL. I HAD THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR TESTED AND THEY BOTH CAME BACK GOOD. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT INTERNALLY THE TRUCK JUST WASN'T MEANT TO HOLD UP.

The contact stated that as he opened the sunshade guard, the sunroof glass detached from the vehicle. The contact veered to the side of the road to check that the sunroof glass had not struck any other vehicles. The contact then continued to drive the vehicle. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 149,000.

SUN ROOF STARTED LEAKING WATER FROM RAIN ON DRIVER AND DOWN DOOR FRAME AND THRU INTERIOR DOAM LIGHT. CAUSED VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITION WITH THE WATER POURING IN ON DRIVER HEAD AND UPPER BODY. EVERYTIME IT RAINS WATER LEAKS VERY BADLY AND FLOODS DRIVER FLOOR BOARD AND EFFECTS ELECTRICIAL SYSTEM. JEEP SAYS NOT UNDER WARRANTY SO WONT FIX. RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND 1000'S OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING SAME PROBLEM WITH JEEPS THAT HAVE SUN ROOFS. VERY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING AND IT MUST BE A DEFECTIVE PROBLEM SINCE SO MANY JEEP OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP JEEP SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS CRITICAL ISSUE.

I HAVE DID A TUNE UP AND CLEANED THE OIL MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON AND CHECK GAS CAP WON'T GO AWAY AFTER NUMEROUS TIMES OF CHANGING IT MY WHEELS AND STRUTS ARE DAMAGED

RECEIVED 'TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP' MESSAGE ON DASHBOARD AFTER ABOUT 10 MILES OF DRIVING IN THE MORNING. WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE HEAT FOR A WHILE, THE MESSAGE COULD APPEAR BEFORE 10 MILES (SOMETIMES IMMEDIATELY). THE FAN TURNS ON AND THERE IS A DEFINITE LAG IN ACCELERATION. ALONG WITH THIS ERROR, I ALSO GET THE 'SERVICE, TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM' MESSAGE CONSISTENTLY. I'VE VISITED MY MECHANIC WITH BOTH ISSUES AND THEY THOUGHT IT WAS FIXED BY THE NEW BATTERY, BUT THEY ONLY DROVE THE CAR FOR 8 MILES TO ATTEMPT GETTING THE TRANSMISSION HOT, NOR DID THEY PROBABLY HIT A BUMP/POTHOLE TO TRIGGER THE TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM. THEY'RE PUZZLED AS TO WHY THOSE MESSAGES ARE POPPING UP BECAUSE THEY DON'T SEE ANY FURTHER ISSUES WITH THE CAR.
