What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep grand cherokee. The contact stated that while driving 20 MPH and attempting to make a left turn, she lost control of the vehicle. The contact crashed into multiple trees and rolled over. A police report was filed. The driver sustained a concussion and a possible back surgery. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure and current mileage was 1,000.
For the second time in 2 weeks the power steering assist steering failed while driving the vehicle. The instrument cluster gives a "power steering warning" and all hydraulic assistance fails. Within a few minutes of this happening, the engine also gets hot. I live n the texas hill country. This failure results a large increase in steering effort on the local hilly and curved roads and the ability to take evasive maneuvers if some of the many local wild animals cross the road in front of me.
