There are 50 owner-reported fuel system complaints for the 2014 Jeep Cherokeein NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
In December 2023 encountered a failure of the vehicles Rear Differential Module (RDM). Failure of the RDM on this vehicle poses several significant safety issues, not dissimilar to concerns raised by the failure of the PTU on this vehicle which eventually resulted in a recall by the manufacturer after many reports by owners. Vehicle mileage at this time was 72,829. As this failure occurred outside of the drivetrain warranty offered by Stellantis on this vehicle, I had the defective RDM replaced at my cost (an expensive repair). Then in December 2025 I returned to my Jeep dealer once again with grinding and binding issues from the rear end of the vehicle. Vehicle mileage at this time was 94,500. The dealer initially diagnosed this as a failed driveshaft bearing and a replacement was ordered. It took weeks for this part to arrive at the dealer. The new driveshaft was finally installed on January 26 of 2026 (another costly repair). When I arrived to pick up the vehicle it became immediately apparent that the originally reported issue in December 2025 had not been repaired. The dealer's repair shop performed another diagnosis and subsequently determined that the cause of my reported problem was the RDM. A new RDM was ordered. As the vehicle posed noted safety issues, it was left in the possession of the dealer's repair shop. Weeks later, a second replacement RDM was delivered to the dealer. However, the RDM received by the dealer had a cracked case and could not be installed. Hence, yet another RDM was ordered. Vehicle remains in the possession of the dealer awaiting a third RDM. As was the case with the previously mentioned PTU, there are reports by owners of this vehicle all over the internet of issues with the RDM on this vehicle. I believe the manufacturer should be compelled to execute a recall for these defective RDM units as was the case for the PTU units.
The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated that while attempting to refuel the vehicle, the EVAP system had failed, causing the fuel nozzle to constantly shut off while fueling.

The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in an Extended Warranty Coverage related to the failure. The failure mileage was 110,000.
While ATTEMPTING to fill up with gas the fuel nozzle kicks off REPEATEDLY, as if the tank is full! This has been occurring for the past year or so.
When is someone going to hold Chrysler liable for all of its fuel tank problem instead of passing the problem onto the consumers! The fuel tank 68217191AD im my 2014 Jeep Cherokee has been changed five times. I don't know about you but that tells me they have had problems with this tank from the very beginning. The new 68217191AF costs around 800 dollars to replace and they won't guarantee it not to do the same thing. They also have tank problems in other vehicles they make. If you don't hold them liable for their mistakes they will they will say sorry we know it's a problem but since it's not a recall you have to pay. Also had gas come flying out of tank getting on face arm and leg.
Tank is stuck at 1/4 full, some kind of issue withe the fuel tank. Can will run out of gas if miles are not monitored. The Gas Tank Aux Pump or design of the tank (Hump over drive shaft) is creating an issue.
Engine stalls after filling tank. I’m not over filling it I stop at the first click and don’t put in a drop more. My engine will still stall and most times my car will completely shut off when I come to a stop.

The vehicle bucks and stalls after filling up the fuel tank to full. I don't lose accessories or anything, I lose engine power. My battery light comes on and my dash says, "battery voltage low put car into park and then desired gear". The car will start up after the excess fuel in the engine is burned off which can take a few tries. It will buck like it wants to stall out or it dies again completely while I'm driving. This is a very dangerous situation to be driving down the road to have the vehicle suddenly stall out. The vehicle will continue to stall until the fuel hits a certain level in the tank.
Every time I fill the fuel tank and start driving the car dies, lurches or drops out of gear. I get a message on the instrument display that I cannot shift without a compete stop (I did not shift) It's in drive but will not move. This is dangerous as it gets me to the middle of an intersection and its dead. I know this sounds crazy but it's a repeatable problem. And apparently, I'm not the only one.

The vehicle was able to restart on several occasions; however, on one occasion the vehicle failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the EVAP valve, evaporative emissions system leak detection pump, and the vapor canister seal needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that an unknown part in the EVAP and fueling system needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.
At a stoplight or red light, the car will sometimes start revving up, like it wants to go, while my foot is on the brake. The check engine light will then come on, and It'll then come up with a notification on the dash saying "Shift to P then desired gear". The photo is also attached. This is very annoying, as it happens while driving too. When it comes up during driving, when you press the gas, it will not go any faster and starts slowing down. This is dangerous and needs fixed. Took it to the garage, and they couldn't figure out what is happening, even with the check engine light!

When trying to fuel the vehicle, the pump continually shuts off. Jeep repaired this once while under warranty, but it has happened a second time and an internet search confirms this is a known issue. It could be an issue with the evap hose design. The safety concern is the rate at which fuel is added to the tank. With this issue, the flow rate has to be reduced enough to allow the fumes to escape through the down flow spout which is a fire hazard if there are any sparks. At the lower flow rate, it's easy to overflow the tank as it's the only way to bypass the automatic shutoff.
The fuel tank has an abnormal amount of seepage. When filling with 87 octane gasoline, intermittently shortly after filling, the cars engine will completely stall while in motion. Also afterwards it may have trouble starting or be unable to start at all until waiting many minutes.
Car wont accept gas, the gas tank becomes vapor locked, particular in cold weather. When you try to fill it you have to keep the gas at a triggle or the system will over flow. Takes like 5 minutes to fill up a tank easy in the winter if your luck.
I am the sole owner of 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. No miles when purchased. All recalls were kept up, all oil changes were made and vehicle has been taken care of. Without warning, my jeep started not excepting fuel or verily at all. Jeep was taken to the local dealership, that sold me the jeep. The air line that allows for vapor locking was completely filled with sediment and mud. After investigation by the dealer they the line had allowed for sediment and mud to overflow into the gas tank line, plugging it. I am now looking at a $2,000 repair bill to replace the air line and my gas tank as there is no way according to the dealer to get the sediment out because of the blockages. The air line and tank are in line with the back wheel well so it is poor manufacturing placement for this on the jeep and even if I do fix it, it will do it again in the future because of the way it was built. No warning lights, no recalls or help so from the Jeep company. Fortunately in my case I was not traveling and was within distance of the dealer otherwise it would have left me and my family stranded.
After filling the vehicle up with fuel there is a good chance the you will experience shutter, stalling or even have engine failure. This has happen in the filling station parking lot and in main traffic. Luckily I live in a small city and have been able to move to safety when it has happened..
2014 Cherokee Limited with a 2.4L I am the original owner, and have had all services done. Car is in good shape. This is now a persistent problem each time I refuel. Within a few minutes or miles, the car engine will stall, tell me that I have to put the car in Park to restart. This is extremely dangerous and has happened to me in the middle of intersections or driving down a street. I fill the tank, I don't overfill it. When the pump clicks off, I am done and don't add more. Then I drive off and for about 5-10 minutes, I am at risk of the car stalling. I have had it happen while driving, and more often when I stop at a light. It will restart. But this happens ONLY after I refill the tank.
