Used 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUV Consumer Reviews
Eco Diesel DEF Problems
As many have indicated in their reviews, Jeep has a design problem with the exhaust system on the 2014 Eco Diesel. It appears to be a software problem. My Jeep has been at the dealership for 4 weeks now and all mechanical parts have been replaced. It's really rediculous. If Jeep corprate folks are monitoring these reviews they should really get this design issue sorted out quickly and make things right with their customers!

Purchased 2014 GC Summit Demo
I picked up a 2014 GC Summit (Demo) with the 5.7L V8 in Jan 2015. So far its been an excellent SUV, plenty of power, very comfortable, touch screen very easy to use and connect my devices. Interior fit an finish is excellent really like the leather seating and suede headliner, Black interior, Harmon Kardon sound, LOTS of bump. The drive, as it is a heavy Vehicle and me coming from a sports sedan, is very comfortable, Sport mode well thats a hole different beast need I say more. Jeeps done a really good job with the GC. So I've had my GC for a year an and half now. Purchasing this Jeep I new there would be recalls now a days it's almost Unavoidable. I ve had to take it in for a total of 4 1. Wiring harness clip 2. Software update or flash update for my remote start and key fob. 3. New rotors and pads covered under WARRANTY, had to pay labour. 4. There was also another software update. Everything is running very well with my 2014 GC, I've heard there's another recall for the shifter which I haven't received any thing as of yet. At the same time I'm not sure if 2014's are apart of that recall, I've just heard it the 2015-16 models, but I will be going g into my local dealership to inquire. Hope this was helpful.

Honest Grand Cherokee Review
Ours: 2014 Limited 4x4, Diesel, Trail Rated, Adv Tech pkg (loaded). Many electrical problems & after 5-mo in service is being bought back under MI lemon law. But we're lucky: came to find that "using" this car was very frustrating. The touchscreen is dangerous to use when driving vs physical buttons/knobs. Just turning on heated seats takes 3-4 steps. Climate controls? More steps. Eyes are constantly searching for controls & impossible to see what's "on" just at a glance. Also, front field of view is somewhat limited. Paddle shifters always in the way. There's no feel in the shifter (try doing a 3-point turn in the city). Always accidentally hit buttons on wheel when turning in reverse, too.
TIPM recalled part
Purchases a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee after looking at SUV ratings which rate it as one of the best SUVs to buy. Less than a year into it my car won't start. It idles but it will not start. I was told it is a fuel pump problem which is housed in the TIPM part. I have taken the car back 4 times with the same issue. The TIPM part has been replaced twice. This is not what you expect from a new car. I am a woman who is afraid of the reliability of my brand new car. It appears I am not the only one with this issue. I wish I would have known before. I had always purchased Acura's before with no problems. I regret this buy. I will be reaching out to Chrysler and apply the lemon law. Wish me luck.
Run away
I bought a 2014 GC Summit diesel for Christmas less than a month old and been into the dealer 3 times. This last time tranny is stuck in 3rd gear, all I can say is do not buy this vehicle! You have been warned! If you are even considering a Heep run away, run far away....
