Fuel delivery system (notably tank filler and related emissions equipment) poorly designed to fail just after california 50k mileage warranty. Dealer wants $800 to fix a problem the mfg. Designed. Alternator recall-with no related parts to repair-driving and waiting for the vehicle to erupt into a ball of fire is unacceptable. What components are being installed on 2018 models? Why can't those parts be installed on…

Several months ago all power on my jepp cut off as i was driving on a [redacted] road. I was able to pull off to the side of the road and re-start the vehicle. I took the vehicle to the jeep dealer and they did a "computer upgrade" which they said resolved the issue. Since that time the vehicle has operated correctly. I 'm currently on a road trip from punta gorda, fl to panama city, fl - some 500 miles from my…

Vehicle stationary at gas station, using gasoline 87 octane and filling vehicle, after about 8 gallons fuel spits out of filler neck and pump stops, i have to slowly and repeatedly squeeze pump to get tank to fill. Had the same problem with my 2008 jeep wrangler a few years back. When fuel spits out of filler it spits on me and the ground potentially causing fire hazard and definitely bad for the environment.

Issue: when i put fuel into my 2014 jeep grand cherokee, whether i am pumping or whether it is on auto pump, the fuel spits back out. Even if you try holding the fuel pump lever so that only very minimal fuel is coming out, it continuously "stops"(like it should when the tank has become full) it's almost as if the fuel cannot go down into the vehicle, as the vehicle thinks after 3 seconds of pumping it is full and…

Service def came on at 34,000 miles. Dealer said that the def was contaminated with crystals and the pump needed replaced. Refused to cover it under warranty due to contamination. Only peak blue def which meets iso 22241 has been used in the vehicle. Dealership then told us to drive the vehicle until the back ordered part was available. When queried about the vehicle going into "limp mode" they agreed it was a…

My jeep only has 41000 miles on it. The check engine light is on so there for i cant even get a va.inspection on it. The remote start will not work as long as check engine light is on. I had it checked and was told it was the fuel neck was leaking air and lost its seal. Just the part to fix it cost around $ 500.00 plus the labor at $250.00 this is a new idea from jeep not to have a gas cap for the fuel neck. I think…

Car completely shut off while driving on a busy street without warning. Dearlership says nothing is wrong with it and wait for the car to shut off on a regular basis. Then maybe they will be able to pin point the issue. This is the second issue with the car on 7/31/2015 car shut off while driving on a busy street without warning. Turns out the fuel pump went bad.

The jeep grand cherokee overland (may be other models) has a feature identified as eco. It is actually a dash button that must be manually overridden each time the car is started. The function is (i suppose) a fuel saving mode, however myself and many others in the jeep blogs have a serious issue in that the car reacts in a sluggish mode when pulling into traffic and shifts in a manner not normally associated with…

At app. 50mph approaching guardrails then bridge the vehicle 'locks up' (no screeching brakes), thought 'trans' (previous unresolved problems), engine sputters, about to die, speed has dropped 30mph, (assume no brake lights).

On friday, october 31, 2014, less than one week after taking delivery of the car (it was new),i was unable to pump gasoline into the fuel tank. Attempts to pump gas directly from pumps at a couple different gas stations (and one time attempting to use the "funnel" provided for filling from a gas can) resulted in the fuel filler neck backing up, dumping fuel on the side of the car and my hand. My car dealer has…
