2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee power train problems

“Car is currently parked: I own a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Larado which Jeep claims has no recalls yet there (3) all of which are happening to my vehicle. NHTSA 07V434000, 13V175000 and 14V438000. My car is very well maintained I have reached out to Jeep and claim my truck was not recalled yet my TRUCK is listed as having (6) recalls all of which are issues the truck is currently having. I have computer codes to prove it. I understand my truck have 150,000 miles and is 16 almost 17 years old however it was bought as an investment that Jeep seems to selectively correct issues only when they are threatened to be sued. This is totally ridiculous. There are multiple complaints from other owners. These things should have been recalled years ago. My vehicle has never been modified and we should not have to be responsible for recalls that are selectively being fixed when there are over 6000 complaints. Thank you”

“Jeep cuts out in middle of driving it says engine misfire on 3 . Driving down road will almost died or not run in traffic im lucky I havent had wreck yet to scared to drive it have seen all over the interent how bad it is mechanics cant seem to fix even jeeps own mechanics”

“DURING ROUTINE VISITS TO MY NEIGHBORHOOD SUPERMARKET, I'VE NOTICED WHILE DRIVING THE RPM METER WAS GOING UP AND DOWN AT A STAND-STILL. NOW THE VEHICLE WAS MAINTENANCE REGULARLY AND I HAVE HAD ISSUES BEFORE I'VE REPLACED THE EGR VALVE, THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR, SPARK PLUGS, PCV VALVE, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER, A/C COMPRESSOR EVEN REPLACED THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. THE TRUCK ALSO SEEMS TO LACK POWER EITHER THAT BEING AN OLD SOFTWARE THAT IT IS USING OR THE OVERALL DRIVETRAIN IS JUST ABYSMAL. THERE ALSO SEEMS TO BE A LOUD THUD THAT COMES FROM DIRECTLY UNDER THE VEHICLE WHEN ENGAGING P R N & D. EITHER THE BUSHINGS ARE WORN OR THE DRIVESHAFT IS WORN. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN MULTI POINT CHECKED AT A LOCAL CDJ DEALERSHIP AND IT PASSED. ALSO THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED ON A RECALL. GOING AT LOW RPMS, I ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN GOING FROM 15-30 MPH THERE SEEMS TO BE A DELAY IN TRAVEL AS THE TRUCK WILL SEEM TO BE LAGGING OR WANTS TO SLOW DOWN WHEN MY FOOT ISN'T ON THE ACCELERATOR. WHEN IN MOTION, GOING AROUND 60-80 MPH, THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO HAVE A MODERATE SHAKE AS IN IT VIBRATES FROM THE UNDERCARRIAGE INTO THE CABIN AREA. IT WILL FEEL LIKE YOU'RE ON A…”

“THE PCM IS NOT COMMUNICATING BETWEEN THE COMPUTER AND THE TRANSMISSION. IT'S MAKING THE TRANSMISSION JUMP, LOOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING, WARNING SAYING TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP (CAN COME ON EVEN WHEN YOU JUST START DRIVING), CODE P1603-PCM INTERNAL DUAL PORT RAM, COMMUNICATION FAILURE. THE RPM'S HAVE RAMPED UP AND DOWN WHILE AT A STOP, LOOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING, AND CAN EVEN TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. EVENTUALLY THE ALTERNATOR WENT BAD. REPLACED ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY HAVE BEEN REPLACED 8/16/20. EVENTUALLY IF THE ECM IS NOT REPLACED THEN IT'LL KILL THE VEHICLE. THE TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP STARTED AROUND 60,000 MILES. THIS ISSUE HAS STEADILY GOTTEN WORSE OVERTIME, BECAME MORE FREQUENT, AND MORE DANGEROUS. I'VE READ OF LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND THERE'S BEEN NO RECALLS. I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR SAFETY ISSUES. PLEASE LOOK INTO THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.”

“HAVE HAS TO REPLACE WATER PUMP 4 TIMES FOR LEAKING. REPLACED 2 POWER STEERING PUMPS. TRANSMISSION AND SLIPPED AND CHIRPED SINCE I BOUGHT IT. NOTICED METAL SHAVING IN MY OIL.”
