2016 Cherokee won’t run

My 2016 Cherokee has been torn up since April this year. It will not show anything wrong on the computer but keeps braking down. It only has 50,000 miles on it. Now there is a software recall on it so maybe they can tell what is wrong with it. I’ve tried a body throttle, electronic module control & a battery so far & still won’t run.

One Year, 26000 miles and still Love the Cherokee

Car is a Latitude with 3.2 L and I'll be driving it for one year on Dec 2nd and have 26,000 miles. No problems with it after a few initial issues upon delivery. Car sat on the lot nearly a year and the front brake rotors were pulsating as they were warped and the car felt like it wobbled a bit on low speed in traffic. Took to a dealer near my work (not where I purchased) and they turned the rotors and replaced the front axles due to a service bulletin. After picking it up, noticed a grinding sound when braking. Called the dealer who serviced it and the service manager was a real jerk telling me it was noise from turning the rotors and it would burn in quickly. I know what the sound of turned rotors sounds like, this was different. Argued with them and they wouldn't even look at it until after I put 1000 miles on it. Told him I'd rather drive it through his showroom if I had to listen to the noise on a new car. Called Chrysler, told me to go back to selling dealer who fixed the problem by replacing the right rotor which still had a high spot on it and also straightened the dust cover which original dealer bent. Although it took some work, it was fixed and Chrysler gave me 25 free oil changes of full synthetic oil for my trouble. Overall very happy with Chrysler's response but not Colonial Chrysler in Hudson, MA. I won't even go there to buy parts for my 05 Grand Cherokee anymore I'm so mad at them. Has been a great car. Good acceleration, smooth transmission. Ride is as smooth as any Mercedes I've owned. The 3.2 L is based on Mercedes architecture. Looks nearly identical to my SLK 280 3.5 L Motor.

Check for small missing parts. The cup holders were missing there liners and there was no owners manual. Fortunately with today's times I can access the manual online and the parts were easy to order.

Latitude V6

Very high quality. Solid and very quiet. 9 speed automatic is surprisingly good. Great performance in mountains. V6 is powerful. Always 25 to 30 mpg fuel economy. Heated seats and wheel are very useful. UConnect, Bluetooth, and cell phone integration are good. Navigation is very bad, with odd direction calculations and chronically out of date. Use your smartphone app. instead. Auto stop/start is annoying, and has no value. Still, very pleased overall. Good job, Jeep.

I LOVE MY 2016 Jeep Cherokee Latitude!

I've never owned a Jeep before this and I am very happy with my purchase and in my opinion, it looks SO much better than the CRV, Escape and Rav4. It takes off when you need it to, except when it rains, I have a slower take off by choice, I think it's the tires? I've owned (2) Ford Explorers (very spacious) a 4-Runner (I LOVE) and now this, I am very satisfied with this vehicle except for the gas mileage and fuel tank. I am used to 19-23 gal tanks I guess.
