2018 Jeep Cherokee - 350 miles - Has died 3 times, dealership can't find anything wrong, help!

Asked by JeepHeadache99999999... Apr 09, 2018 at 01:51 PM about the 2018 Jeep Cherokee Limited 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hi!

So, my wife's brand new, leased Jeep Cherokee has now died 3 times in the
month and a half that we've owned it.

First time, it was 2 weeks after getting it.  We jumped it, took it to the dealer,
they couldn't find anything wrong with it, and gave it back.  It died again the
next morning.  Chrysler came, jumped the car, and towed to to the dealer.  It
sat there for the next 4 days, then started right up.  They changed out the
battery, and sent it back to us.

Last weekend, we went to take it out.  DEAD!  The dealer was closed that
Sunday, so it sat dead until I jump started it on Monday.  It sat at the dealer
for a week, per Jeep's request, and then it started right up.

Anyone experience anything like this?  SUPER frustrated with this car.

Hi Anon - Honestly I don't think that they actually ever fixed anything. It sat at the dealer for a week, but they couldn't "recreate the problem." I kept complaining and they refunded a month of the lease (Chrysler Corporate.) Good luck with yours! (Won't be getting a jeep again...)

My 2017 Jeep Cherokee has been at the dealer 3 weeks because they say the battery is on back order. They gave me a loaner vehicle. What is going on?
