2 months after purchasing tachometer goes crazy. Revs up and down whether you're driving or at a light. Took it in and they upgraded the software. Recall also suggested this as well. This past week the engine light comes on. Dealer said there were 4 different software upgrades due. We didn't know except the engine light came on to give us a hint. Apparently fixed it. Wrong. Next day light comes on again. After 3500 miles a new vehicle should not do this. Prior reviews had mentioned this plus total transmission replacements. Should have kept the Honda accord and not 'knee-jerk" purchased this vehicle. Advice is to never purchase first year transmission updated vehicles or year models in general. Far too many bugs to sort out. Big disappointment so far!!

My 2015 jeep v6 Cherokee Limited is now back again for transmission work it now sounds like a helicopter noise when doing 0 to 60 and more when going back from 60 to 0. I don't see how they can deal wi y h this 9 speed it should never have been used. My other car has a 6 speed and no problems. This jeep is only 15 months old and more trouble then the other 2 jeeps I have owned. Never again with jeep

After owning the vehicle for 1 year we are still quite impressed with it. We had an issue with the multimedia center (radio) and I had to demand the dealership replace it when they "could not replicate the problem". The screen would just black out making it unusable. After a minor arguement with the dealer they replaced it and it has worked fine ever since. The only othe unnerving thing about the vehicle is the 9 speed transmission. It occassionally wants to stay in a lower gear too long when going up even the slightest incline. I had the dealer check it and they said it was normal. It still does this and i will have it checked again before the warranty expires but at a different dealership. When looking for a new vehicle I took my time driving everything in thing in this class from A-Z. After test driving the Cherokee (6 cylinder Limited) I found myself comparing everything to it and could find nothing I liked better. We have had our new Cherokee Limited for just over a month and after 3000 kms I still look for any reason to drive it. Outside of the two issues it is still a good solid vehicle. Yes, it has slightly less cargo storage than most of the others in this class but that was not an issue for us. I have been off roading with it - love it! It feels solid and comfortable to drive with just the right features we were looking for. It delivers the mileage I expected. We are still impressed!

I have 10,000 miles on mine. I would be very cautious before purchasing. The transmission is more of an issue than they are admitting too. The poor shifting makes this car extremely dangerous. The hesitation in downshifting makes everyday driving very deangerous. If you get the sunroof prepare for it to rattle and creak every day without a solution to fix it. FCA calls both issus operating as normal.
Great car, bad transmission

Not only was my trans replaced in less than 3000 miles, I have been back to the dealer a total of 6 times now and they act like they have no idea that the trans has had problems all over the country. The internet is littered with people complaining about this car and the trans. It lags then jumps, you never know what you are going to get when you press the gas. The service trans notification lights up the dashboard regularly. Recently the key fob was not recognized while I was sitting in the car, so I couldn't start it. The air pressure on my wheels goes haywire. According to the sensors, my tires magically inflate as the car warms up...logical I guess as that air is probably warming up and expanding..(my attempt at humor). So my 4 tires start at (from front left and clockwise) 34, 31 (in red) 33 and 34. 20 minutes later 36, 33 (still red), 33 (not red) and 35. HUH? with a gage they are all 36. It's a real shame because all the gadgets in this car and the overall appearance, really make me want to overlook the fact that I'm not confident pulling out into traffic. Lastly, Chrysler Corporate are super nice, but they will not actually help you get anything done. I have my 7th appointment at the dealer this week. My 8th will probably be next week or the week after. UPDATE: Since having the trans finally fixed 2 years ago, the car still has the same problem, but I have learned to adjust. Sometimes when I go to pull out into traffic the trans acts as though the gear never settled down into first at the stop, leaving me with a lack of power out of the hole. The car is really so great in the other areas though (appearance, towing and interior functionality) that I am dealing with the trans issue.
