Sensors (2) for the braking system and cruise control acting up. Due to family emergencies we could not get this repair done while still under warranty. They initially quoted $2,100, saying the extended warranty didn't cover these parts (though the salesman had told me it "covers everything"), then $700, and ultimately charged $132.50. This Grand Cherokee, my wife's, had one or two similar problems in the first 36 months we had it. (We bought the Jeep around 20 March 2014, so it is just over 3 years old, and has less than 31,000 miles on it at this time.)

Warning message that vehicle had a "suspension problem" and needed to "immediately" be returned to the Jeep dealer. We were told "a suspension (ride height control) module has failed." A new module is on order but will not arrive at the dealership until Tuesday, 10 October. We picked up our car today, 6 October, because my wife and I are flying to Hawaii on 9 October. We'll have the module replaced after returning to Utah in late December. (We were told the module will be replaced under the dealer's "LandCar Warranty" that was added to the price of the Grand Cherokee when we bought it new on 21 March 2014. We have a $100.00 deductible on the "module" and labor for replacing it.

Ride height control module replaced. We have an extended warranty on the Jeep. We paid the deductible, which was $200.00. The dealership, Larry H. Miller Jeep of Provo, Utah, had the car for a week (related in part to a 3 day weekend). They furnished my wife with a Jeep Renegade---and, surprise of surprises, they did not charge her for the "rental" car! The exact odometer reading as of 28 February 2018 is: 35,250 miles. This mileage is still valid as of 2 April 2018, as we've been on Molokai since the evening of 28 February.

Warning message on dash read: "Exhaust filter 100% full. See dealer." At my wife's request, dealership also checked for leaky cooling system, as wife said she "smells antifreeze from time to time." No cooling system leak was found. Coolant level was fine. Dealer's service department replaced in-cabin dust and pollen filter which they said was dirty. (Replacement of this filter cost a total of $65.95 for parts and labor.)

CEL lit up on a cold dark night. Went to the dealer the next day. They said the transmission valve body needed to be replaced. Got car back 4 days later. Shifts much smoother. But transmission drain pan is leaking so I have to go back.

Weather warmed up. Noticed rattling noise, seemingly random, with windows down. Crawled around and noticed that right rear-most muffler hanger was not reinstalled after major repair from previous month. Returned to dealer. They said "that wasn't it", "had to use Chassis Ears", "probably rock in front left brake dust cover", "that'll be $150, please and thank you". Noticed left rear shock was leaking, apparently leaking for some time. Dealer didn't tell me during previous visit. Called and set up another appointment. I said "one of my shocks is leaking". Received automatic email from dealer which stated "customer states left rear shock is leaking". Dealer read my mind! Extended warranty covered cost after $100 deductible, but would only replace ONE shock. I thought these had to be replaced in pairs! I'm done with Chrysler and Wickstrom Jeep in Barrington, IL.

Around 0 degrees outside. Got "Service Air Suspension System Immediately" error message when I started the engine. Scheduled a trip to the dealer. When I showed up they said "moisture in air suspension froze", "to be expected given the weather", "nothing they could do", but "still safe to drive". I sure wish they would have told me that over the phone and saved me the trip.

Paddle shifter activated on its own during normal driving, downshifted to first and stayed there. Could not cancel using the right paddle shifter. Shifting to Park and then back to Drive worked for a short distance but would happen again. Good thing I was on a side street when this happened. Towed to the dealer. You should have seen the faces of the tow truck driver and service writer when I explained the problem. Dealer called Chrysler Engineering, then replaced paddle shifter and entire steering column module (clock spring) over 7 days.
