2005 Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1204033
Internal NHTSA #	10744322
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	JEEP
Model	GRAND CHEROKEE
Model Year	2005
File date	10/02/15
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	While driving approximately 55 mph the etc warning light came on and i lost all control of the throttle control of the car. I manged to coast home at 15 mph speed where i call call the dealer and have the car towed tothe shop for repair. A throttle control module was identified as being shorted and they replaced it at $1508. 20 cost to me. Prior to this incident my control module went out causing the electric seats to retract and engine begin to shut down. This required a new power module at $1543 cost to me. The recall issued by chrysler for the ignition switch problem nhtsa 14v-438 has yet to be resolved by chrysler since september 2014. I feel the earlier electrical problems could be very likely related to the ignition switch recall and i had to pay for the other repairs, also the plastic support that holds all the interior door handles secure to the door have all broken because of a know design failure chrysler has on these vehicles. Chrysler has refused to repair the defect and this car is a danger to anyone who is in it while driving. If an accident occurred or a fire in the car, you could not escape from car in time to prevent serious injury. If there is no recall for this defect there should be one.
