2016 Jeep CHEROKEE Engine Problems, Complaints and Defects

File date	01/06/16
Component	ENGINE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The engine shuts off without any warning. It has happened on ramps, a parking garage, on the highway and the middle of an intersection. No warning lights come on until after the engine stops. The steering fails, the brakes fail and the vehicle rolls to a stop. Often, it will take several minutes and attempts to restart the engine. I was advised by the dealership that the oil was low. The engine continues to shut off and with no correlation to time frame after having the oil replaced, time it has been driven, or duration of the trip. This is completely unsafe to the person operating the vehicle and to others on the road. Jeep and the dealership have ignored the problem and i have even been told by jeep customer service that "the engine is operating as designed" which means that it will shut off without warning to protect the engine, not those inside the vehicle. They have refused to fix or acknowledge the issue, refused to void the lease and refused to replace the vehicle.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
