Default recall

23/04/2021
When the vehicle is running, the battery symbol is displayed on the instrument panel, and the text prompt needs maintenance. The engine fault symbol appears and various symbols flash. After that, the electronic products stopped working until there was no power steering. It's very dangerous on the road! After barely driving home, it can't be started again after flameout.

After charging all night, the maintenance symbol disappears. In the morning, it's normal to light a fire and drive 16 km. In the evening, when driving nearly 10 kilometers, the battery maintenance symbol appears again. After that, all kinds of electrical appliances were cut off in 5 minutes until they suddenly stopped at an intersection. It was very dangerous! Cannot start again. After emergency replacement of a new battery, start the battery normally and drive it home.

My detection and judgment: according to the above experience, this car should be charged because the generator can't work normally.

The voltage does not change before and after the vehicle starts normally. When the positive pole of the battery is turned off, all the vehicles are cut off and flameout.

Maybe first, the generator is damaged; Second, the generator regulator is damaged; The third is the control program of automobile computer power generation.

I think this should belong to the campaign number: T36 "2012-2014 (WK) Jeep Grand Cherokee
" recall issue. The VIN of this vehicle was not in the range of the VIN list released at that time. But the problems are consistent with many generator problems.

Therefore, a recall is strongly recommended.

2014 WK2 diesel Overland
Located in PERTH, WA, AU

Waiting for a response from Jeep Australia.

Mine failed at 6 years old and replaced it with an aftermarket one. Stuff will fail on a 6 year old car that has extensive electronic systems. Maybe it was a bad batch (recall VIN list) maybe they are all bad who knows Jeep probably don't know either.
