2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Complaints

The Hatchback was suddenly in operable where none of the buttons or fobs would open or close the hatchback to the point I was not able to close the hatch manually and the hatch flung open while driving causing dangerous driving conditions. I took it to the dealer and they replaced the hatch but the buttons in the vehicle still didn't work and found it was the connector pins were not connecting. My concern is that I have family and children in my backseats and do not feel safe driving with passengers where the hatchback can open while driving on a new car 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee with only 14 miles when purchased less than a month ago for $40k+.

May 22nd, 2025- bought a brand new 2025 Grand Cherokee Jeep limited from Iverson Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Huron South Dakota. - The computer module failed leading to multiple electrical issues such as fan for operating the A/C and heat and the screen for the radio constantly flickering and going black and then turning back on. - Our safety is at risk because the vehicle is not reliable. The fan goes from level 1 through 7 and it displayed "127" on the screen. We live in South Dakota and it's Winter now and our winters can and will be brutally cold. I don't feel safe with having our little daughter riding in a vehicle that is having constantly electrical issues. - The dealership and the manufacturer are aware of this issue but refuse to help and the dealership is still selling the same jeeps off the lot. - My husband and I having been fighting this since May 22nd, 2025 until present December 3rd, 2025. -Please see attachments for full explanation on the issue. - I also have alot...

Within weeks of purchasing my brand-new 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee, this past Thursday when leaving for my workday the steering wheel on my vehicle became completely immovable when I attempted to leave. I started the vehicle and tried to turn the wheel, but it would not move at all. There were no warning lights or alerts. I had no ability to steer or maneuver the vehicle, and it was completely undriveable. The vehicle had to be towed from my workplace to the dealership because the steering would not turn. After diagnosis, the dealer informed me that the entire power steering rack had failed and required full replacement. A power steering rack is a critical safety component, and a failure of this magnitude on a brand-new, very low-mileage vehicle is extremely concerning. If this defect had occurred while driving, it could have led to a total loss of steering control and a serious crash. I no longer feel safe operating this vehicle. I am requesting that NHTSA record this incident as a s...

Vehicle shuts off intermittently without warning. Random dash warning lights will flash, but not stay on. Air suspension will engage on its own while vehicle is not turned on, and electrical panels and lights will turn on and flash while vehicle is parked in garage, hours or days after last driven. Transmission will struggle to shift gears from low speeds, but then quickly “catch up” causing unpredictable acceleration. This vehicle has been to the dealership 5 times with batteries replaced, and software resets done, but no conclusion to what the source of the issue is. A camera was installed in our garage after the vehicle was sent home with us without being repaired due to being unable to replicate the issue. The camera captured 4 incidents of the vehicle electronics turning on, and air suspension raising up and down over a span of 5 days. We were advised to park the vehicle outside of our garage for fear of potential electrical fire, or it starting on its own. The vehicle is currentl...
