What owners wrote
New jeep cherokee 2015 vehicle was purchased evening jan 2, 2015 from. Perry chrysler/jeep, national city, ca. Driven total less than 100 miles. On jan 4 driver noticed oily smell when driving. Immediately after being parked at home white smoke came out of hood. Within seconds the entire car was engulfed in fire, flames 20 feet high. Burning oil or fuel ran down the street over 50 yards. Two local san diego TV stations have videos of fire, including our own video on facebook. Available upon request.
I was driving to the freeway about 60 - 70 MPH and the car did not want to speed up, the gas pedal even though pushed pretty hard did not want to respond therefore I had to stop in the middle of the 10 freeway. After turning of the car, and turning of the eco mode (car turning off at intersections or in traffic jams) and continued driving. However, during the eco mode off, the stalls heavily during gear switch, most notably in the beginning ones for speeds up to 35 MPH. I made it safely home.
