    Memory seats no longer work, therefore causing my seat to be out of whack and i can not sit right. My engine began to make a ticking noise out of nowhere, meaning something is wrong. One headlight is out but isn't and causes my bright to be on at all times. When using my light i now cannot use my actual brights. *pm

    Headlight illumination at night is terrible. If on a highway with no additional lighting your visibility is dangerously low even when using the high beams and fog lights. If inclement weather like raining, make visibility even worse. A recall and upgrade to the headlights should be issued.

    I purchased 2015 jeep grand cherokee altitude with the standard headlights last year. These headlights are very dim and should be considered dangerous. They might be fine in a city with street lights but on country roads the low beams barely light the road and the spill into the ditches do nothing but light the edges. The high beams should be considered the low beams if they weren't pointed so high. The dealership i…

    Stock headlights are very dim, making visibility poor. This is an accident waiting to happen. This condition should prompt a recall. I have never driven a vehicle where visibility was made so poor at night. When turning right, you could never see a pedestrian if they were to your right. Not good!

    Transmission seems to hesitate when i initially start driving (as if it is struggling with the gear) then it jumps. Gear also appears to be at #5 when i am under 40mph. Does not feel right and just recently started doing this. Only has 5500 miles on it. Then it seems at times that the front headlights flicker while driving when it is dark out.

    The halogen headlight grand cherokee limited(without luxury group ii, which the hid headlight comes with) is too dim during the night especially raining night. Hardly to see lines or objects. I went to a dealership asked them if i can upgrade it to hid headlight with my own cost, they said no. And the 2016 grand cherokee also use the same halogen headlight.
